Hi all, I just bought this car on Thursday for 8k, I was originally looking for a VN SS but they were all quite expensive, even more so than VRSS's so I thought I would get something a but newer anways i love it heres some pics/info:
94 VR SS
185 V8 motor
has done 138844 Kms
Auto trans with Stage 2 shift kit
3" Exhaust w/ Extractors not sure on this exactly but the sound is very loud with no drone!
Clubsport Kit w/ HSV Badges
HSV OTR CAI (has hsv stamp but im sure my gfs regular holden cai is better in her VS)
16" (i think) white Auscar rims
JVC Stereo with Kenwood amp (couldnt give a **** about stereo)
Has a decent alarm system
Sunroof
Power: 194hp with a dyno sheet
The only thing I really would even like to get is a tune im real happy with it and its not bad on the fuel either, heres pics

very tidy SS, not a fan of the clubsport kit on an SS and especially not a fan of the HSV badges on an SS, other than that, sweet ride.
I'll reserve comment for after you get the SS kit put on.

Nice looking car mate.
Wheels look good too; use to have the same type on my VN
Hope you have plenty of good times with ya new car.![]()
Best of luck with the new car mate, good to see another V8 here. Try and seel the kit for a bucketload then buy a SS kit, then have some left over change to mod.
Thanks guys, yeah I do like the clubby kit but it just doesnt sit right on an SS
I asked the bloke about the 185 and he said 'it was a factory option' cos how I thought it had he 165kw motor.
Bit poor atm so unless I could somehow sell/trade the clubsport kit it will stay for a bit, I would like to get a tune for it, can Greenfoam tune VR's?
oh and also im worried to rev it past 3k when theres people around cos its so damn loud, overall im very happy and would recommend a car like this
hey man nice pick up
but i dont want to have a go at you but please make it an ss they have their own street appeal and toughness.
i understand that funds can put a halt on things!!!!
you have done really well getting a low km car clubby kits have their place and thats on a clubby
and an ss with sunroof???? priceless
good luck dude!!!!!!!!
im schizophrenic and so am i
196.4rwkw 100% stock

nice car man, foamy does do the VR Tunes, i got mine done by him about a month and a half ago and it goes really well.
dont like the looks of the clubby kit on it but oh well hopefully you will change it back to the SS kit.
wouldnt you be spewing owning a v8 that only makes that much power and wouldnt be able to beat people at traffic lights??

yeah mate i'm spewing..
uh huh. But you shouldn't put down other peoples cars when you have nothing that comes close to being as good.
wow.. its gettin hot in here! was quite impressed by that read out. made me cringe when i though just how much my stock V6 isnt making, blown head gasket and all. i really like the kit, im not a purist, so i go with anything that looks good (not a fan of the wing, but the only car that looks good with any wing is a supra.) i had a set of white 17's on my commy that would have looked shmicko on that, but i palmed them off for 200 bucks. i wouldnt bother changing much its a tidy lookin beast.
If it aint broke, dont fix it.
Nice ride, even if its got personaliy issues, I`m a clubby arn`t I arn`t I...lol.
that read out is it for rear-wheel or fly-wheel? if its fly wheel then its safe to say its a 165kw
though witha 3" and a CAI it should be more than that?even if it hasn`t been tuned for it maybe some new spark plugs, leads , rotor button and dizzy cap to restore some KW`s.
then a foamy tune to put you in the 200kw range.
