Mmmmmm...thanks - different answer to what I was given by local Ford dealer, if experience is anything to go by your answer is more accurate Meggs_83. Ford guy told me 5lt, your doc says 12.5lt, wonder if that is just coolant or total combined cooling system liquid ie water and coolant. Might have to get a 3rd opinion.

You are Slo aren't ya. Read my previous post. Fast enough to beat your GT (pre supercharger) How many goes did they have at doing yours? Three, four or more?

Welcome back Slolean, we've missed your informative and knowledgeable posts Nothing wrong with my trans as it happens, just want to do some preventitive maintenance. As for rebuilding it, what was the name of the mob that did yours, just so I know who not to use?

So if your car doesn't display any symptoms of this brake "problem" do they still replace the hose or is it a blanket fix regardless?

I want to flush the cooling system of my auto BA XR6T, how much coolant will I need?

I want to change/flush the trans fluid and fit a trans cooler (PWR) to my 4 speed auto - how much fluid will I need? I believe the OEM TQ95 is still the stuff to use.

Get the windscreen from O'Briens, it will be a fraction of the price of Ford and O'Briens use genuine Ford screens. Should get it for under $200 fitted.

Go the Conqueror and make sure you post pics!

What about a Dynopack (hub) dyno? Very few workshops seem to go for them, would they be cheaper and probably more accurate than a conventional dyno such as DD? Be good for Nick, the travelling tuner!

It would be a good 300C competitor. Might be a bit wild looking to be called a Fairlane, can't really imagine Kevin Rudd and friends rocking up to the Lodge (or Kirrabilly...) in that. It would probably look good pimped out with airbag suspension and fully sik 22s.

I wouldn't buy one personally but I reckon it's not a bad looking car and should be a good seller if they bought it to Oz. Dunno if it would sell enough though to justify the cost of converting to RHD. Mustangs didn't sell that well here but that probably had a lot to do with the big price tag.

So FT, does this mean you have divorced the Wog? Poor Nick, cast aside like....a Unichip

Do you though??!!! I recall someone having blue shockies and someone else having yellow!

It's pissing down rain here in Canberra

Want me to look after your T while you're gone?!

Is it just me or does this handbrake lever have a err...phallic look?!

What a good day for a birthday.

Heard on the TV news Courtney got relegated to 4th after passing Rick Kelly under a yellow flag but looking at V8 Supercar website he is placed 17th.

Might of been even better if Winterbottom hadn't gambled with the slicks, but yeh agree that it's good to see Fords at the pointy end again. Courtney had a blinder of a drive the last couple of laps!
