Vahirua is best known for his AJ Auxerre stint. Having played there for a decade, he was part of the side which reached the 1992-93 UEFA Cup semifinals. He left for SM Caen in 1995-96, precisely in the season where Auxerre would achieve an historic double.

After representing modest Atromitos F.C. (Greece) and Tours FC, Vahirua returned to the Auxerre area, playing for amateur sides Stade Auxerrois and the reserves of AJ Auxerre, after which he took charge of football development in the area, having retired in 2005.

With 22 caps and 1 goal for France, Vahirua represented the nation at Euro 1992.
