Hey there guys
Currently driving a slightly modded HSV VXR... about 166,000km on the clock I want to sell it and I am looking at a 2007-2008 MPS 3.
Questions - has anyone on here owned a VXR and can tell me similarities/differences between the two?
Also.... any rough estimates about costs for getting the car from 190kW to about 220 :)
Thanks guys :y:
At the wheels or at the engine? [emoji14]
Test pipe, intake, access port (or VersaTune) hpfp internals, e85, rear engine mount, $2k, done...
Don't know much about the vxr, know the mps comes with a proper LSD though... Also makes a lot more torque...
Guess @mickos or @Reedy might be best people to ask, they're friends and have a vxr and 2010 mps respectively...
Mick was tossing up between the 2 but went with the vxr because the Mps was too big to fit in his garage among other things.
It's personal choice really if you have had the VXR for a while , I'd take a few MPS on good test drives to compare to your car
I still love driving the VXR ticks so many boxes
Aint that our mps's LSD not a real proper good LSD? Hence the need to upgrade for real handling?
It's a pretty good LSD... But its not a "proper" LSD...Quote:

Hmm....I'm sure xr5 and non performance pack golf don't even have any LSD. But focus st.....LSD or not.....its handling seems to shit all over us....according to reviews
For about 2 laps of a circuit, then their brakes catch on fire...Quote:
