  1. Seen it on a few utes but not on any sedans. Looks ok on lighter colours but horrible on the darker ones. Grant
  2. Think so Michael Moore has provided more ammo for debate than most people I can think of - he's improved dinner time discussion at my table that's for sure He does have some valid points but also tends to twist things a fair bit. Ultimately he's a writer with a script who goes out to get evidence that supports his view. If you assumed he was a propoganda machine with the sole purpose of removing Bush from power I don't think you'd be too far wrong! Will be interesting to see what happens if Bush doesn't get back into power - will the movies continue?? Grant

    MP3s

    Holy crap!!! You ever going to listen to that many songs??? I'm still trying to get all my CDs ripped, can't see myself getting to half of that.... Recommendations? Dave Matthews Band... the Central Park concert kicks
  4. Tried a few different ones with varying levels of success.... Go to http://sourceforge.net and you'll find a load of free apps - one of which should really help Grant
  5. OK... so you have 4FE ports. Correct me if I'm wrong but that's a fast ethernet port and not a wireless port so where is the wireless coming from? VLAN and VTP is generally configured at a switch level, not on the router.
  6. Apparently the guys from the US who have been working on this are coming out in August - not sure if that's the release date, a marketing exercise or additional research though. Grant
  7. Hey Adrian, Welcome to the site! Hope you can provide plenty of useful information to the masses Saw an XR8 out at Richmond on Sunday morning with Haltech stickers all over it.... one of yours I'm guessing? Grant

    Help

    Cragin, Have you already got the springs etc? I'm wondering if you couldn't get your dealer to do it.... Gregory's have done some Herrod work on my brother's Pursuit. I'm sure they wouldn't be too over the top on labour charges. Grant
  9. Thanks guys.... much appreciated
  10. Ok, I'm familiar with the falcon from the XY through to today, but I need to know what the older ones look like. I'm looking at restoring an older falcon as a project with my dad but would like an idea of what they look like so I can make a slightly informed choice! Anyone know a good website or have some pics of their own that they could post? Grant
  11. Thanks guys, will let you know what it was when they resolve the issue. Grant
  12. Hi all, Backed out of the driveway recently, full lock to turn onto the road and on comes the ABS and TC lights. I've managed to replicate the problem a few times, but while it was in for it's service the dealer couldn't pick up any error codes although they could replicate the problem. I know (by testing) that the TC isn't working in this scenario but I haven't tested the ABS. Anyone had this issue or have any ideas? Don't really want to find my brakes dying when I need them. Car is booked in for a full day on Thursday but thought someone here might be able to help. Thanks Grant
  13. Well, I could be wrong, but if an individual ordered the box and had it shipped to them rather than under the APS name I would guess that Mal and Ben wouldn't be aware that it was going into an APS car. All speculation of course.....
  14. Wonder if there's a way to find out the "average viewers" on a thread.... I reckon IM2QIK would have the highest average of any forum member :lol:
  15. Would be interested in getting the FACTS on this one... Without all the bashing.

    Coming to Oz

    Sweet!! Now you just need to convince them to pay 40% of your mod costs too..... trust me, you're going to need it!
  17. Try this thread http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11516 Grant
  18. Not mechanically minded but my 2c anyway If Ford put a rev limiter in, they wouldn't put it at the limitof the engine... surely they'd build in a factor of safety and get the cutout 200-300rpm lower than what would damage the engine. Hold on, that would actually be sensible - so maybe I'm wrong.

    Tyre Sizes

    Tyre Sizes

    Ok guys, I'm looking at picking up some 19s for my car, and trying to get an idea online of cost. 1. Looking at 19x8.5, does anyone know what the width limit is for our cars? 2. On the 17s that came with the car I believe the tyres were 235/45. I'm seeing the following options so far under 19s 275/30 215/35 225/35 235/35 245/35 275/35 How do the number work?? Help is much appreciated!
  21. Does anyone know if these cars made for dyno comps are actually driveable?? I mean imagine how much rubber you'd need to accelerate without wheelspin!
  22. Just rang them up.... apparently it's a Haltech (sp?) chip.... 40% larger intercooler than stock that bolts on to the existing mounts. Says they're working on a package with larger injectors, fuel pump etc, but thinks that the stock exhaust is good for up to 400hp (roughly 300kw). Sounds very similar to what Chiptorque, Nizpro and APS have already suggested.
  23. No but it would be nice :lol: ........wonder what 420 rwkw feels like I'll let you know by the end of the year if things go to plan. Just doing the sums Brian... APS' "secret part" gained them an extra 70kw over the stage 3 kit - almost what you need to get to 420rwkw. Is there some deal making going on..... :lol:
  24. Minge's TS50 from over at FF would be doing that kind of rwkw easy
  25. IM2QIK, I agree it is interesting to see that they've done it... however, that's more from reading what people have done with their cars on these forums and the power levels at which they start modifying internals. Do you have more experience than that on which your asking this or are you in the same boat as me?? Cheers
