  1. I have had one built using atomic components, if they are built right they are not noisy. Mine sounds like a stocky
  2. Well done mate, it is great to see. I think I have broken enough components for the both of us so you are have a great run without breaking things lol. The is a great time in your climate with the setup of the car, having done many runs myself, you know in your gut if the car has anything left in it. Do you think it was close to the best run you can do with the car in the current trim? Congrats once again, Dean
  3. Rightly or wrongly Ford claim that the underdrive pulleys create a harmonic imbalance causing the pump gears to fail. Reading the forums certainly seems to back that up with the number of standard motors without underdrive pullys breaking pump gears is minimal compared to cars that have them fitted. Because you replaced the standard pullys that were not faulty with non genuine items they will not supply or fit hardend gears for you under warranty because you made the change to the car that can effect the pump gears. If you do book it in for a service and they spot the underdrives then if the pump gears do fail, they more than likely will hand you that $20k bill for any replacement engine. IMHO in a boss motor, if you change to underdrives, just do the pump gears as part of the upgrade, it's not worth the risk.
  4. Oh Shazzy, You had me at gayfl
  5. At least I didn't have to get up at 3am to watch a ref shaft us this time though
  6. Mate I was right there with em until the refs undid the wheels on the band wagon
  7. Now be honest Shaz, You scored from penalties twice that were not there and then we had a try knocked back when the ball clearly came of your guys forearms. And before you say it yeah I know a win is win and the scoreboard is all that counts. It's just that when they hold the 10 year reunion at the Broncos, watching the video might just make some of them feel a little red faced when they look down at their rings. But hey I am just a dumb Mexican that follows AFL
  8. Get off the gas Jeff
  9. It has changed now Heath no nos equipment must be installed at all in the car, I checked earlier this year.
  10. Mobil does direct pay at the pump via credit card here in Victoria but you cant use any fleet cards and still have to go in and pay for that

    Plasmas

    If you need a hand Luke, am happy to come over and have a tinkle for you, just give me a call.
  12. Yep I had all forward gears as well, was a *beep* to turn around in my driveway on dolly wheels though
  13. Has it been noisey, sounds like the planetary gears are gone and a piece is jamming the gear set and stopping it from moving. It has happend to me and a couple of others on the forum. If it is the planetary gears the box will more than likely need a rebuild while it is apart + the planetary set replaced, a couple of grand + change was roughly the cost. I hope it all goes well.

    New Toy

  15. Tell them that Gran Turismo 4 times don't count in the real world
  16. For starters the plugs will be fouled and with all of that excess fuel in the system your cat will start to melt and be stuffed in no time.
  17. Give em a break, Big Ad would have cost them a fortune they don't have any money in the advertising piggy bank anymore. lol
  18.

  19. 0 to 100 in 6 seconds, 100 to 0 a lot quicker when a tree is involved.
  20. I had an intermittant problem like that a fair while ago. Ford said it was either a dirty throttlebody or something to do with the cam phasers? Anyway they fixed it and it was fine. If the problem was in the edit would it not be consistantly there all of the time when at idle?
  21. Gee Rob, I think Dave has you pegged mate. You really should read it mate, I hear DBOSS lent your mum to Dave for the centerfold shoot but they didn't want the boot open Congrats on the article Dave
  22. Whats your Chinese name Anthony, and I don't want to hear you say Anfony

  24. Should have taken it for a run at Heathcote while the tub was off Adam lmao
