im gunna have a stab at 170 rwkw.
-
ewww, why would ford bring out a auto! totally got one now, my xr6 is auto, totally bored of it.
-
totally not complaining, its like the cheapest xr5 on carsales... like by 4 grand and the k's arent too bad on it haha. id buy it.
-
3 k all up sounds about right, but if you do it bit by bit it doesnt seem like that much im in the process of doing my ba 4 spd auto, exhaust done so far.. running 2.5inch stainless and 4490's + new cat obviously, costed me ummmz 1490. got quoted 990 for tune including capa tuner. just dunno if I wanna both, or just sell up and get a turbo when I get off my p's
-
bah, I loved the look of your car while following it for the majority of the cruise lol. I liked the look of the badges really, made me think when I saw it.. but I liked it, something different. do what ya want with your car, its yours and if your happy driving it then go for it
-
it doesnt sound like he loves his car at all surely any person would realise bouncing the car off the rev limiter isnt the smartest thing to do, let alone doing it repeatedly.. sounds like karma to me..
-
so I was looking through carsales, and have decided its time to start saving some coin. I plan on my next car being a vixen bf mk2 f6,35000 drive away now with 30k on the clock. too bad I have to wait 2 years :(
-
umm, comparing BA to BF, his is bf mines ba, so obviously he had fair bit of pull on me. but I want a rematch now that I got my exhaust all done. should be about even now. just waiting for my gearbox to give out so I have an excuse to put 6 spd auto in.lol, seeing its only done 50 k I dont think it will happen for a while.. will probs upgrade to a t before it happens... might just put a t engine in. not sure how much their going for now days though.
-
haha, nah mines the mercury silver 4 spd auto :(. my mate had the 6 spd manual. but mine costed half of what his did . want to get a turbo... but cant drive it grrr. hate p laws
-
and yes it is the 4wd place lol, I drove past jaxx, and couldnt be bothered doing a u turn, wish I did now. those guys are wankers.. glad I didnt pay them. lol
-
hahaha, I was just trying to keep up with matt on sunday lol, damn him and his 150 rwkw more than me lolz. hmm maybe it might of had something to do with when I went sideways on the way there.. got frustrated with traffic.. lol still doesnt explain the front wheels though..
-
that's what I thought, but got new tyres and its gone. just have fkn idea how it happened. coz I havent locked up the brakes.. I think its gone, didnt notice it as much. tyres and more diagnosed, then got tyres from bob jane. didnt pay tyres and more for anything lol
-
all sorted, nothing major just flat spots on tyres.. no idea how that happened.. front tyres.. havent come to any sudden stops lately.. p.s no one go to tyres and more crnr neuman and redland bay road. fkn rude pricks.
-
good day apart from the fact that my car broke.. and my cars slow.. lol. and the traffic comin home was a shocker. 2 and a half hours to get home... but we had some fun on the way home haha. got some looks.
-
no time atm, gotta work early in the morning fkn work. hopefully its safe to drive on.. was doin 150 on the way home on it lol, keeping up with an rx8! hottie was in the passenger seat lol. gunna drop in at ford , just see if they can figure out what the problem is nice n quick. probly not but ill give it a go.
-
ok, so it happened today.. on the sunny coast cruise.. was running smooth as last night, now im noticing bumpiness. I believe its coming from the front.. not sure which side, but it feels like im running over bumps constantly.. hard to explain, but its not smooth anymore, what can cause this to happen?
-
twin stainless tips, side by side, some like it some dont, I think it looks nice. dont like the stock look
-
gotta go to my mates mrs' bday dinner, ill come down after see if ya still there though
-
ok im pretty sure its hotdog then the 2 mufflers, took some pics but there sh*t.. need a hoist if im gunna take pics lol
-
yeah fairly sure the hotdog is at the front of the two mufflers, but will try gets some pics asap.. hard to get underneath lol
-
its just 2 and a half, redback exhaust. new cat, and ph4490 pacemaker extractors. finding the idle is a bit quiet for my liking, but dont want it to be rediculous, ill have another look at the exhaust, maybe get some pics if I can.. pretty sure its 2 mufflers and a hotdog..
-
Ok ok, so I got the new exhaust done, and all and all fairly happy with the work done by brian at exhaust innovations. Idle is fairly quiet though. probly due to the 2 mufflers + a hotdog. tell me, if I removed the hotdog what sort of impact would this have on my idle and acceleration noises. would me removing the hotdog, or one of the two mufflers create a drone?
-
face the facts. these laws are pointless. we still have geniuses driving turbo cars on their p plates. whether the government likes it or not. their just like speed limits. your sposed to go under them, but if you dont and dont get caught nothing happens. tbh, its tempting for me to do it with prices of t's down so much atm... a $350 fine and 3 points doesnt sound half bad.
-
pfft. tmac stop verbally bashing p platers. most crashes on the news that p platers are involved in are because their going 150 km/h and loose control. Acceleration and power of a car has absolutely nothing to do with it.. their getting up to the speed of 150 km/h then crashing. not crashing because of how fast they get there.

not on the windows, got the ones on the bonnet and headlights. I think its coming from the window area but im not entirely sure...
