So ever since I have been around the forum(s) there have always been questions about Fox Marketings Versa. I know I myself have had some questions of my own that never really got answered, and to this day I still see some people asking questions about it.

Earlier today I got in contact with Brian Fox to get all of the details, and he has agreed to chat with me to help everyone out with the things they would like to know about the car and/or parts.

Now, does anyone have any questions that they would like me to ask for them? I will compile all of the questions together and will make sure that everyone gets the answer they are looking for.

Let the questions roll!

This is the 2007 Versa that was shown at SEMA. It was the first Versa to have turbo and was also the first Versa to have the IMPUL bodykit (here in the States)

This is the infamous car..

Here's a link:
http://www.foxmarketing.net/project_car ... ersa-Turbo

It supposedly made ~270hp before it was taken to SEMA. It was taken back apart after SEMA and the pieces sold off. Turbochargers.com made the kit, but didn't make production jigs to re-create it. If you want a kit, they need a car to build it off of and you need $5,000. Brian Fox said they didn't use a piggyback ECU for the car to adjust the fuel.

Any other questions?

I called these guys a long time ago and the said they didn't produce it because there wasn't really a demand. I would love to see stillen make a supercharger set up for the car.:)

there hasn't been a demand on any power-adders. Everyone has been interested until they hear it's going to be $5k for a good set-up. No one has been brave enough to spend 5k on a 14k car.

Very true.
I would rather drop big $ on jdm S14, GTiR, R33 GTS-T, domestic G35 2005+.
For V, likely just exhaust and intake upgrades for me.
sigh

Haha!

Nice to finally see a pic of your Versa.

P.S. I spotted ya again today!

I was turning Left on Paramount (to go to the Linc) and you drove by (around 7pm). I'm pretty sure it was you, they were headed in your direction, lol ... You also had passengers in the car (one in the front) and at least one in the rear.

Yup, and from same place, Costco, picking up new glasses for wife.
She drove it for first time today.
Went to fourth instead of sixth a few times.

I've done that too :confused:
Wouldn't have happened in Fox Versa! :biggrin:
