think they just called it the VXR 220 as opposed to the VX220 VXR, maybe why you havent heard of it, could be wrong

No

It's the Z20LET with a different map and a Milltek exhaust.

Stereo System


I know, lol. I was being a bit wide. Considering the advert is for a VXR edition it has very little info about the car.

vxr ones came with other little changes like black v grill, yoko a048s i think, 4 channel abs etc etc! beta spec car than the standard one! the vxr ones hold there value well!

extra 20-30 hp brought 0-60 down by half second! sure it was 4.3 to 60!

the brakes were the same 2pots as was put on the other 2 vx220's and the elises.

the main differences were:

Engine has a Z20LET with a different turbo on it and different map

interior was different, has alacantara seats with harness holes in, no stereo and a carbon dash

the suspension had ohlins and had 17/16 alloy setup with yoko tyes and 4 chan abs.

they had a black vgrill and window surround along with black wing mirrors.

power was 220ish so 20 more than the standard tubby and 70 more than the 2.2
