While it may appear a little dearer than other legnums at first, I am losing well over 4k on what it owes me. It has extremely rare black leather interior, and also with current exchange rates this couldn’t be imported for less than $14k at the moment. Then add all that I have spent so far (mainly with receipts) and this is truly a bargain.

good luck finding another one with black leather interior too.. only came on the COTY edition, which aren't common.

i have my stock legnum rim's here if you want them too lee. :blush:

Thanks for the offer mitchy - I've secured some facelift stockies here in adelaide though.

And your right, I've only seen 2 other VR4s in Australia with the black leather interior in the last 18 months :P

looks good mate. But what is going on with those rims ? I think the offset is wrong for that car, they look like they are sticking out a bit (or perhaps its just the pics)

I reckon some interior pics of the famous black leather would help also brother. Great looking ride though and free bump.

The rims are flush at the rear, and stick out the front by maybe 2-3mm. However when lowered, the camber will tuck them in perfectly. I've just never fitted the springs/shocks as my wife drives the car 75% of the time and I wanted to keep the front bar in tact :P

Here are some shots of the interior - unfortunately not the best shots, but shows the interior. Leather is perfect except for small section of piping on drivers seat is starting to wear:

    • Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust? 
    • The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.  
    • Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
    • Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
    • Are you talking about the oil squirters? There is only one place for them to go. Yes, you have to drill the holes. Yes you have to obtain the correct oil squirters (I presume there is some sort of aftermarket option available, because original turbo ones are going to be a diminishing resource).
