O Trader

Great. Thanks for the info. Can the mesh be removed or is there a silicon (not affected by heat) aftermarket snorkle moulded to the same shape ?

Hmmm... Seriously, does anyone know what the technical reason is for this configuration ?

I havent seen any up close so can someone tell me what the vent and filter are for in the XR8 lower air box and snorkel ?

Hmmmm..... Manuals not that popular

Are'nt these one hubcentric already ?

For turbo utes it is only 230 across Australia. They have said that due to popularity the total number across all 50th ann models will be increased.

What did you outlay for the hardlid ?

See photo

I queried it with the dealer as I did read elsewhere it was $2K but he said was definately $1k This is a ute ( if that makes a difference ? )

I only paid $1k . . ?

If you install rear wheel spacers (36mm) on an FG Turbo Ute, how much does it make the vehicle understeer above what it already does (if any)?

No problem. Will corrosion be an issue ? Can they be installed DIY ?

Looks good. Are they chrome or stainless. How much does it stick out from the panel.

Yes please. What will this do to the way the vehicle drives or corners ?

Nice one Miller. Did you get a good deal. . . .

Anyone know if the mud flaps are fitted whilst in the factory or is it done at the dealer ? Mine arrives this week . .

Hey Guys. Can the premium audio subwoofer from a sedan be retro-fitted into a ute with premium audio. If so, where is it normally located (in the sedan) or where can it be located in a ute, and is it plug and play so to speak (existing wiring loom) or does it require taking the dash apart and a soldering iron. Hope some one can shed some light . . . ?

Ok now we have drifted on to warranty ..... I have a new 50th coming at the end of the month with a 5 yr / 200 000km warranty. If I fit a genuine XR8 lower airbox and snorkle will my warranty be void . . . ?

So does that mean that the 'FG F6' spools 30% slower than the 'FG T' ... ?

Hey Collo Your ute looks slick. When did you order it or was it available from the Dealer ? I have to wait until the end of August and I ordered it 15JUL10.

If you were to fit an XR8 airbox, snorkle & K&N / BMC air filter to a standard FGT, will this require a custom tune or can it safely be run on the factory tune . . ?

Curious..... When you asked for "No decals and just standard 17 inch rims" and did they drop the price a little more ?

Has anyone fitted an under spoiler to the front of an FG yet ?

I would walk away from it as you can get a 50th Annie for roughly the same price

Its a $1000 for the auto. Is it the 50th Anniversary model ? ($39950 with the auto. The XR50 version has approx $10500 worth of extra stuff in the $38950 (manual) price just like the deals they were doing for the Magnets. Sounds like a non- 50th Annie version
