  1. Brian I am shocked to read your news but I am glad that you are all OK. I was lucky enough to be a passenger in XR6T8U when I bought some wheels from you in 2004/5? At 340rwkw, it was the fastest car I have ever been in. I can't begin to imagine what it was like at close to 600rwkw. Even though I no longer have my XR6T and have not been active in this forum, I still log on every few months to check on your progress with the this car. I have read all your technical posts and I have appreciated the detail and knowledge that you have shared in this process. I look forward to hear about your plans for the future. Cheers Slapnut

    Hey guys, Thanks for the birthday wishes. I have bought myself a steering wheel and Gran Turismo and have been quite busy with the Playstation. Cheers Slapnut

    Caltex Vortex 98 is now the only fuel I use! It goes well in my car!

    dick smith has programmable replacements from abot $30. I scored one from K-Mart for $10. It is basic but it works!
  6. Hey BlownBA. Mine does stop after pulling on the handbrake as well - but is comes back a short time later. Cheers
  7. Can anyone provide tips for doing this job? I am keen to fix this noise. The dealer doesn't seem to give a sh*t about noises. Cheers!
  8. This idea was posted by a great lad on this forum and it worked for me! Ask you friendly dealer to keep a XR8 under headlight snorkel from the next SS Inductions kit that they fit to an XR8 as they just chuck them out. I asked my dealer. He said that they do a SS Inductions into XR8 every few days and he would keep the next one for me. Two weeks later.... voila ....one XR8 snorkel.
  9. Great, we can sleep in for another hour. It is a pity the tin lids will still get me up whenever they want....

    I have Falken FK451's. V good IMO. Cheers
  11. Or maybe you can go back tomorrow for another dyno run with smaller wheels.......
  12. Hey Geea Some people just aren't worth fighting with. Mike's dyno sounds like a complete idiot. Even is you do show him your dyno sheets, do you think he will listen or even care? Sleep soundly in the knowledge that we all think that Mike is a tosser and his dyno is a piece of sh*t. Cheers Dave
  13. Hi MissXR I can't make this cruise after all. I hope everyone has a great time. See you on the next one. Cheers Slapnut.
  14. I dare anyone to prove this wrong - mathematically of course. Go for it Brian!!
