Pics as promised of leather handbrake tutorial and shifter boots. Replacement for incorrect handbrake boot arrived yesterday.

Nobody can, because it's military/government related. He feels superior because they have a "need to know" policy, hence he can faithfully say "you'll never know/comprehend" and the such. Who cares

When people complain about fuel usage in a high powered car and say they are going to "de tune" it to save fuel. That's like going on a gun forum and saying, hi guys I bought a a .50 calibre rifle but I don't like spending money on big bullets, how can I shoot potatoes from it. Fàaaaaàaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrreererrrrrkkrkkkkkssnnsuaij🤯

I still haven't returned from my weekend away down the Island yet :S Laugavulin 16yo tonight

Me and Mrs BCB are definitely coming, and will most probably have a feed as well looking forward to it

First turbo car 520kw Silly pecker

Gave the interior a much needed makeover last week. Leather seats and door trims. Roof lining and everything else replaced in black. Very happy with the result.

I’m coming to yours for dinner 😄

I gave the kids weetbix and honey for dinner tonight cos I felt sh*te. Best dinner ever they reckoned...

He is familiar with cups because of all of his cooking skills

Ditto, decent actor, waste of oxygen person

Yeah as much of a weirdo as TC is, he generally does good movies

it's always fun to come on here and find out who's getting narky with who for the night.

Fuel economy is an integral part of making power. You want everything to be as efficient as possible which will return the best fuel economy. This doesn't mean that you get great L/100km in a high powered vehicle. To get an idea of how much fuel a 500+rwkw falcon uses on ethanol... Roughly calculated, 6x1000cc injectors are pumping about 6 litres per minute flat out. You aren't at 100%injdc all the time but you will still use about a cup of fuel every time you do a 5 second wot pull. 0 to 100kph at wot=1 cup. Overtake like a mofo=1/2 cup. Drive half throttle to 110=???, etc etc. You've only got about 250 cups of fuel in a tank. They disappear very quickly with high power and e85.

Summarising the last two pages: 1. When you work in a government field where by you’re not allowed to disclose details of anything... no one gives a chit nor thinks you’re Ethan Hunt from MI3.... govt clearance and jobs aren’t exclusive nor cool... we all know (well those of us with govt clearance high level) that defence knows random chit... if not too much... about your personal life and internet usage, you only have to apply for a full clearance on a defence base to work that out. Doesn’t mean you’re particularly skilled or important. 2. kittens leart cut and paste short cuts tonight 3. Keif can make valid points 4. Everyone has a right to vent amongst the community here despite who understands the vent or not. 5. Wine is awesome and drinking on your seventh day straight, about to work your 8th day straight, works well and excuses all grammatical and spelling errors.

Falcon and fuel economy don’t really go hand in hand. Add e85 to the mix and it only gets worse, but your consumption is somewhat normal

Was no rhyme nor reason when it was happening and was too intermittent to be an easy diagnosis. Was at Ford under warranty a few times and nothing found. Eventually happened while the tuner was in the car and he was able to work it out.

nice copy and paste though cat boy

have fuel card. Who cares about fuel economy.

it was literal pr0n... I don't see the concern. Plenty of those websites available if you want to see it.

I cant piece together what the heck your going on about damo

Oi can I get at least one "there there"? Being sick farken sucks. He's keeping them balls for himself

But raaaaaabb

^Even more impressive @XR6T 520RWKW I found your ad, impressive spec....I'm actually tempted Ok to link it here? I'm intrigued, what made you buy it in the first place? jumped in the deep end

Do people actually get out of bed for that???

Black ceiling and new leather boots are on my to-do list! Leaving them till I actually have time to spend on enjoying my ute though. Finally fit new brake switch last night, left for work this morning, 😕 still playing up. Stressed about it all day. Just now thought to check the fuse aaaand I'm an idiot lol. Got alignment done yesterday by a local mechanic/suspension specialist and not the tyre place I usually go. He packed the factory mounts as much as he could and it's a lot better but camber is still a little out but close enough. We'll do a camber kit next alignment. I'm thinking the rears wore down badly while they were on the front prior and were rotated to the back where the skids weight of the rear end just abused the weakened inside edge causing them to split.

@xr6666turbo I love your interior. Looks awesome. I love all black interiors

MBAF is Gooers brother? go put ya tin foil hat back on buddy .... pour yourself another bowl of coco pops and calm downZ

That sort of fuel economy usually means it's about to blow up I'll give u 5k for it 😉

Finding a job sounds like anal sex.

slowly and painfully, but going, nonetheless.

maccas got 4years, you can do it well technically I was 32 but im 35 now so ill allow it yep 😘 remember when you used to come after house and let me have a fillet o fish

Brought this today, Toxic BF. 120000Km’s full leather interior. Couple of pics of her in her former glory

Per4manz turbos in Welshpool. Pretty much the only shop in Perth that will do that for you.

So my G6E just clocked 100,000kms and I got fed up with the drivers seat bolster being all crushed and mangled when sitting on it. The leather in that area was worn, still in ok condition but the foam underneath was just weak. Passenger side was immaculate so I thought...Time to swap! The backrest of the seat is not swappable due to the side airbag being on the respective side. However the bottom seat foam and leather are identical pieces left to right. Sorry for not taking photos of the process. Was my intention to do so but I got carried away. Start of by removing both seats. - Remove all the plastic trim to expose the 4 seat bolts - Using a T50 torx bit unbolt both seats - Carefully tilt the seat back and unplug the various electrical connectors - Now lift the seats out of the car into an area where you can easily work on them Now we need to get the bottom foam piece swapped - Finish removing the remainder of plastic trim from the seats - There are 2 bolts on each side holding the backrest to the bottom of the seat - Undo these and lay the seat base next to the backrest. - There are a few wires running between these two pieces for the airbag. I just left them connected - Next starting at the back of the seat unclip the leather from the seat base. - It's held on with long plastic sleeves that hook over the metal edge of the seat base - Once its all unhooked....CAREFULLY....lift the leather away from the seat base - There are strong velcro strips in each recess of the seat foam that keep the leather taught - Make sure you dont pull the velcro off with the leather! - Now that the leather is removed you should be able to see the foam. It just lifts off the seat base - The passenger side will have a sensor glued to the foam (passenger occupancy sensor) which is part of the airbag system - Carefully remove this (I used a knife and slowly cut it away) and glue it to the other foam piece with upholestry glue At this point I went to town cleaning the leather, the seat rails and the interior of the car underneath the seats. - Now just reassemble everything and your done! Took me about 4 hours Few snaps During the mess Passenger side finished. You can see the worn leather and compressed foam Drivers side looking brand new!
