Haha yes and no, I will post a picture when I fit the fronts and you tell me if it stands out

I'm going black to match my black 6 pots on the front. Might be awhile until I get around to it though! Need to buy the calipers and I'm looking for a good price on a FGX xr8 PBR rear

Hi all,Sorry if this is the wrong section but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a place that does a good job of painting calipers in Melbourne?They are brand new off the car and I want them done properly (IE not sprayed on the car).Thanks

Thanks again guys!

Got it fixed for $250, its the cheapest I could find in the area. One guy wanted $550! Noise is gone and diff clunk is a bit less.

Unfortunately they are in Frankston, bit far for me to go. Any sponsors out west?

Ah no worries, I got quoted $250 and a day to install. Can anyone recommend a place in the western burbs of Melbourne? Ha-ha yep easy fix, like most things, just throw money at it!

Yep you guys were bang on, crawled under my car with my GoPro. I don't really have the tools/skills to tackle it myself, how much is a reasonable quote? Also is that diff clunk normal? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSZu6e6ZeJI Thanks again for your help, hopefully this helps someone out because unfortunately I don't have much to contribute!

Ah far out, would that be causing the clunk as well? I just thought that was a standard option from factory. Is it worth replacing now or should I see if it gets any worse? Thanks again Womend. PS I noticed the site was struggling a bit yesterday so I donated to get the server serviced

It sounds like its just below the cab but I'll check it out tomorrow after work. Would it only make the noise at take off if that was the case though? Cheers

Hey guys, Yeah after messing around a bit tonight I don't think I used a very good analogy for what it sounds like. I tired to record it and you can just hear it. It happens really quickly and only on acceleration from stop, the diff clunks (you cant hear that in the recording) and then straight after you get a shullfling kind of noise. I put the windows down and tried to pinpoint it but it is louder with the windows closed. I think it might be coming from the transmission or driveline. Sorry about the recording its really quiet but its much more noticeable RL Thanks for the help so far Audio recording 2015-11-24 15-52-25.wav

Hi all, I am a bit on a noise nazi and just recently I have noticed that on take off from a dead stop there is a ticking noise that happens about 4 or 5 times and then goes away. Its louder under hard take off and almost sounds like if you had something hitting the wheel spokes. It only happens from a dead stop and is gone by 10km/h. It sounds like it is coming from the passenger side engine bay or wheel well. I have searched a few threads and all I am getting is diff bushes but its not coming from the rear. Its a 2010 FG XR6T Ute with the only mods being atmos vent bov and intake muffler removal, 80000k's. Cheers

Don't you need to cut plastic to get the plaz stage 1 in though?

Womend do you have a price for the Jonny Tig stepped (no cut) with black pipes?

I can't find it in the kits for the FG. Any idea how it performs vs the stepped?
