    I recentlly upgraded from my N95 to the new iphone and I'm loving it. So much easier to use, I can get 3 days out of the battery if you turn 3G and Bluetooth of when you don't need it( very easy to do,much easier than the N95). I don't use my phone a heap though. I was never a real fan of the iphones but after having one for a few weeks now I love it. Just get one.
  2. These sound an look awesome, I'll wait for some pricing from Hiro and grab them of him.
  3. The guys that are going to tune my car reckon wait till about 5-6,000. In that time you can make sure you find out if there are any bugs in the car that can be fixed under warranty.

    It's a ute, but I'm getting a Dec 09 XR6T for $40,950 with Luxury,Tech Pack,Mats and cab tidy. Not sure if the sedans are much dearer. I think for the 08 he's looking at it's a bit steep.
  5. Thanks for your help guys. I may be a bit too picky about it, but the ones I've seen in those links a not quite what I'm after. I would like something that appears to be sitting lower down that what most of the ones on there do. I saw one at Fountain Gate on sunday and it had,"STIFF BUILT" written on the side. I've searched high and low but can't find anything on them. I'll need an alloy tray though. With the carring capacity on the utes as standard and need to try and keep it as close to that as possible. If I go a steel one I'll lose about 50-70kg. Thanks Again P.S- I'm in Melbourne, I didn't realize my address has vanished when the site upgraded.
  6. Thanks for the response The tyres are only 245 wide, I think 8.5" Never new that about HID's. Better get some std globe's in. Might just chuck std BOV back in for now.
  7. Hey guys, Took my car in for a roadie as I'm about to sell it and there are a few things on there that I am confused about, or the guy has no idea what he's talking about. It's on my 04 Xr6T sedan 1. Claimed that wheels and and tyres are incorrect( only 19in). I told him they can be ordered with 18's so there not illegal. 2. High Beam/Low Beam/Head Lights should work at the same time? I'm running HID's, but I don't think this would make a difference to the lights working. Is it correct that all should work at the same time or BS? 3. Blow Off valve venting to the atmosphere? I have a dual port BOV like the one below. It is vented back down into the Under battery intake. Is this illegal? Thanks Joel
  8. Hey guys, Just wondering if you guys may be able to help me out with a few querks I need to have on my new ute. I need it for work and need to get a steel tray. Obviouslly FORD can't help me out with this so I was wondering if anyone knows how much a new tray will set me back. It's not going to holding big weights, max probably around 3-400kgs. It's just that I move some big/light weight stuff I've had a quick look over the net, but there's not alot around. I'd also like a pretty tough looking tray, not the standard pov ford look ones. Thanks
  9. Thanks. I picked up the RGB convertor from ASL Logistics.
  10. I have the 7in screens and there more than big enough. If I went the 9in the headrests would of been wider and wouldn't of looked as good.
  11. +1 I have the Stg 2 cooler with the under battery Intake and the only cutting was the radiator support ( no bigger than a 50c coin) and a useless piece of middle behind the fog light for the under battery intake (that's if you doing this). The Kit comes with instructions and is very easy to install, the best money I've spent is this cooler.
  12. I'd aslo look into a replacement Cat. So. Injectors,Valve Springs,edit,cooler,cat and pump. Will go close to $3,000 and should net you around 300rwkw. If you want more power down the track I would look at a cooler that will get you to that goal. Don't buy a cheap monza one then upgrade it cause it only handles 300 and you want 350rwkw. After these mods I'd save up for a trans cooler for the auto.
  13. "I can't drive the thing properly if I don't get it". That one seems to work. She thinks I'm on my 5th gearbox.
  14. Here's mine. 2x 12in Whatmough Tornado Subs 4chnl MTX 2chnl MTX monoblock
  15. My 04 Blueprint T had a slightly litter blue engine bay. I had it resprayed blueprint.
  16. +1 Sounds tough as nails and I believe is legal.
  17. Yep, I wouldn't worry about them. I didn't have any for about 2 years and didn't have a problem. They could possibly be the worst designed item on a car ever.
  18. braaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvvvoooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

    Just thought I'd re-visit this thread. I wen't out a got some champix 2 weeks ago and all I can say is "Halla Louya". This stuff is amazing. The day I was supposed to stop was Monday but on Saturday around lunch I just didn't feel like and I binned about 1/3 pack and haven't had one since or even felt like one. I might think about it but then I remember how bad they started to taste on Saturday morning. I have had a few side effects. Mainly only the nausea for about 15 after taken a tablet and some weird dreams but if it means I stop smoking then I'll live with it. Thanks to ENVY-T for bringing this up or I wouldn't of been able to quit. Cheers mate, I think I owe you a beer.
  20. I think the main problem with most people's garages is the lack of shelving and a good size work bench. I'm building a house soon and every wall with have some kind of storage on it, weither that's shelving ( floor to cieling) some nice big cupboards and problem a 3-4m long bench about 600mm deep. The most importanting thing is having a spot for everything and trying to put it back there once your done. I find a tidy garage will make you spend more time looking after your car.
  21. Guy only got half a jet ride.

    Over the last couple of weeks my XR6T has developed a problem on start up. When I go to crank it over there is a strange noise coming from the left hand side of the engine ( when I'm sitting in the car), it makes a sound as though the car is allready running and I've got to turn it on again and you get that crunching sound. Cause this be my starter motor? It only does it when it's cold. If I drive it for a while and start it up again it just starts normally.
  23. It looks like it's not even bolted in there?
  24. Cost me about $400.
  25. If you want different maybe get the tips coming out of the side skirts,V8 style. That'll be different and also illegal, but no other XR6T will have it.
