    Ba / Bf Specs

    I read somewhere the late model BFs have the same bottom end as the typhoons? not sure Few interior changes mentioned... really minor ones... more silver bits etc, and in BF the clock pod.. and Bfs have that stability thing that my BA doesnt... theres also something different about the thermo fans / radiator set up, fins on either side of it that divert air differently, or something.. I read it on here... ive only got the BA II though... not sure of much... The BF bar looks better... like the one in the header.. BA bar is VT styled
  5. Why am I suprised theres no blue ones shaz or why am I selling up? Surprised there was no blue ones becase there was like 6 last cruise.. and now theres none.. and selling because as much as I love my car for its appearance of fatness and smooth powerful driveliness its only moved once in the last month... I just dont drive it too often.... and would like to do some major upgrades but cant afford to play that game.. Going to sell it off and probably get a ute for work.. sad face, but ill save in the long run
  6. Surprised by the complete absense of blue ones this round.... crossed my mind to meet everyone at the karts but I havent been up to it... may have been my last chance too... selling off the big girl in the next few weeks
  7. Unfortunately cant make it guys... I've Had an unusual sleeping pattern the last few days up most nights with a throbbing head/face... off to the dentist monday for some root canal... hopefully restoring my will to live... Even missed riverfire.. and will miss dj bexta at surfers... but have been introduced to neurofen plus so all isnt lost.. new kinda dizzy there.. Dont forget about that speed camera at burpengary.. 100 zone.. not like those speedy gold coast or sunshine coast highways... welcome to the plain middley bits..... probably too late for that kinda advice now.... have fun.. rubbin's racin'
  8. Myself and my younger bro should be able to come.... I'll sign on when I know for sure....
  9. [quote name='trevs' post='720448' date='Aug 19 2008, 08:03 PM']did anything ever happen with the white line sway bars , a Blistein shock group buy would have some interest i reckon[/quote] Whiteline put me onto repco... and The state sales manager from repco i dealt with was unable to help me... he said it would be unfair to the stores to cut them out of any sales.... So pretty much a dead end there...
  10. my Goodyear F1's handle wayyyy better than my worn Dunlop sport maxxxxxs.... I went to http://www.tirerack.com and checked out the survey results ratings in both wet and dry for the size I was after... 235/40/18 I think it was... at the time the goodyears were 3rd and their rating was impressive... it was silly dollars from there on... it even out ranked alot of expensive tyres... give it a go...
  11. just tow your falcon with a delorian and hit it to 88 and you're there!!
  12. yea id love some skidpan.... I dont think im ready for a beginners course in near stock XR6t circuit racing.. but skid pan I'll have a crack at.... back in QLd next week.... looking forward to it.... filled up at a servo in sydney and damn sure didnt get the 98 octane I paid for.... dodgey servo *****colourful string of clever curses*****
  13. Ok heres the update on the swaybars.... ***Save you some reading, It wont happen with whiteline, or any national retailers like repco, supercheap or autobarn...*** whiteline wont deal with public buyers, and forwarded me on to one of their dealers.. The brisbane sales manager for the national parts retailer i mentioned earlier has looked into the idea of a group buy and tried to determine a national price and found that there are too many variances to come up with one price that is valid nationally... he fears stepping on too many toes both interstate and at each store that missed out on a cut.... similarly the same can be said for a QLD only group buy... through them anyway... they fear their discounted prices being listed on the internet and the throwbacks from competition etc etc **Back to the drawing board** Its hard for us to get a store interested unless we have the quantity to make it worth something for them... this can be done on a store level so if anyone has any connections give it a go.... otherwise i'll give fulcrum a try... oe one repco / autobarn in brisbane if everyones happy to pickup, any suggestions?
  14. theres a ton of people keen and i'm currently being dicked around by the sales rep... i think i am anyway.... emailing him again now...
  15. watch out!
  16. man boobs (8cm of bounce whoo! )
  17. heh... I was worried about mine being stock too.... but so were most of the rest... in the interest of a group activity... has anyone ever done skidpan? is it educational or just hoonery?
  18. vampire (.... hey, is it possible for me to have too many turns? my life lacks meaning)
  19. it wasnt that long ago they installed that thing.... I find it amusing how few fixed speed cameras are in QLD... I think NSW did a big group buy on fixed speed cameras and had to make excuses to put them places...
  20. retail workers (and australian working families?)
  21. talons (I first thought falcon... but we wont go there)
  22. squelchy (as a gumboot stuck in the mud)
  23. on topic.... I've noticed my BOV doesnt seem to do its job anymore.... I've a stealth fx... set to full vent... as it always was.... and it no longer sneezes chooochoochochochoo.... I can hear all the air blowing back on the turbo fins... is this because of the air filters high flowness in anyway? can it release the pressure instead of the valve? it doesnt work that way at all does it? I confused myself... either way... its having issues.. plz help
  24. after reading the last few posts I realised I know very little of the sunshine coast... I've heard theres an underwater world up there... and now that I think of it ettamogah makes a mean lunch.. and theres big kart track, although cheesey and slow.. its something else to do... I searched for sunshine coast and looked at some of the tourism websites trying to get ideas... other than what I already said, theres super bee, australia zoo (can we daddy, can we), and uhhh big pineapple.... really no better off than when we started hey...
  25. yea just being a smar tass... I know it's not really where rangas are made....
