  1. just did 13.3 in my stock turbo ute @ 109mph, it should go close to 12s with traction off the line I think Mph is there
  2. yeah well done mate! wish I saw your last run of the night ey. yeah humidity killed it in the end. although was nice a cold (misses complaining) I was impressed with how all the turbos went tonight. well done to everyone
  3. haha yeah this north vs south side is funny as. where did it come from?? well what propted it was when I went qualifyed I was called redundent, and I have been in a long dist with my girlfriend who is going to uni in brisbane. so I decided to move up here to be with her basically lol. and work down home was very very slow. I am happy as I have made the move, brisbane is a nice city and the temp atm beats down south lol. one thing I dont like is the 60kmh and 50kmh roads!!!!! sooooo sooooo soooo slow. I am used to gellong highways that are 100 not 60 lol. I am going to lose my ticket up here easy as!!!! we all should go on a cruise some time, I would be keen as to catch up with some car enthusiests up here.
  4. just a thought. the cv is wearing out because of the change in angle between the tail shaft and the diff pinion angle. I know you can shim diff pinion angles in the e series falcons to stop diff chatter. I wonder if we could shim it to fix the change in angle???
  5. hey mate! it cost 510 to get it lowered that's king springs front ssl and reset rear leaves. the ride is a bit worse (but not as bad as I thought it would be) I am just worried about this cv joint in the tail shaft. stupid ford

    I am the same also... just went qualifyed a week before hand too. now am qualifyed carpenter looking for work. none in victoria so on a whym moved to qld to be with the misses, goes to uni in brisbane. and cant find anything up here either. soo screwed if I cant get a hold of work soon. any brizzy builders on here????
  12. I will come and have a look see....
  13. just thought I would add, boost is a measurement of restriction. so one car making 300 on 15psi could have a standard dump and exhaust... (more restrictive to the flow of air/ exhaust) where as one with 300 on 12 psi could have aftermarket exhuast cooler dump etc which is less restrictive. (just exaples) with my old car (supercharged v6 commodore) this was alot more crucial than the turbos are hope you can understand my jumble
  14. hey mate I am in the same boat as you, I drove upto brisbane from melb on sunday. coming into ipswich (round there) I hit a pot hole and damaged 2 rims.. PISSED OFFF to say the least. and I am about to write a letter to qld roads to see what kind of compo I can get. I have heard of people getting money out of them before so I will give it a crack.
  15. I am just wondering what size stock fg injectors are.. I know they are better than previous models, but am unsure on what lb they actually are... and also what power they can sustain Cheers!!!!
  16. yeah that's what I was thinking... but I would have to do all of that in one go yeah?? because I cant really do the exhaust coloer and not tune it?? I would have to tune it right waya before driving it on boost?? are the standard exhausts any good on them? what size are they stock?
  17. hey! well I have just brough a new Fg xr6 turbo ute. 6 speed auto in black I have already organised lowering but I am wondering what would be the next thing I do to it... I am after preformance gains. I dont want a generic edit or anything like that I am thinking bigger. like intercoolers, intake, injectors, exhaust etc... if you where in my situation what would be your next mod?? or first for that matter?? cheers I am chasing 300+
