no central locking or fold away mirrors. Thats correct. And you cant adjust the brightness of the dash. Its supposed to be on the right of the steering wheel but ours dont have them.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought the central locking fairy took it away LOL. Now I'm happy, for a while I thought I bought a dodgy version R.

WTTC

trying to find how to adjust the guage brightness was one of my first posts as well lol

, if you have one, you can find it by looking just under the steering wheel. For me though it turned out that mine were already EL but on the dimmest setting (previous owner must have been a dumb sh!t) which i found out when i replaced them with KMC dials

You know, they could have simply offset the extra 2kg by upping power 5 or so kilowatts..

may be but there is about 30kgs between the VR and the GPX as there is a lot of other things that they have taken out and changed from the GPX to make the VR.

seriously why worry about weight when your vehicle still runs 15's (if your lucky). As the_msta_chizz says worry about first then weight.

Remember kiddies SLIP, SLOP, SLAP.

Slip on exhaust
Slop on a pod
Slap on a turbo
