I had a monza. Made no real difference. Your better off running wit like a $600 cooler. I put my stock one back on or im sure if u were patient u could pick up a 2nd hand plazmaman or rapid intro kit for under a k id asume

Depends what you mean by custom? Headers and 2.5 inch with hi flow cat plus xr8 air intake and a dyno tune has been proven for 198 rwkw on an xr6 sedan. Same motor as xt so without the air intake id guess 190 at the treads after a tune. Hope that helps

Hate to drag up an old topic but my ba has the adjustable rear arms and also came factory with tow pack. Maybe they were installed on cars with tow pack to adjust for the weight on the rear? Just looking at lowering my fg and its a real pain cos my suspension guy wont drop the cradle out to do the control arms. Is there a step by step somewhere on doinf these in an fg

Hotwire what did it take to become an electrical engineer. Always considered this for when my body say enough?

Pretty sure you can do prevoc course as a night course in some states. Other than that maybe just do some research so if u get a call u have some basic knowledge ei cable sizes vs current capacity cct breaker sizes for cable sizes, tools of the trade and the big one that gets em everytime what is electricity and how is it produced. Things like voltages frequency, resistance, current and how there measured. If you can get your head around that u should impress in an interview. Also have a good answer for why you want to be a spark. Hint, money is not a correct answer. Lol. J@ do you work for chubb or someone. Do you know josh elsworthy. Hed be your age and does fire system installs

Oh yeah boffa and russo did that hey? I did some shop fitting in there and a bit in big w while u guys were there. Yeah I want to do my fire coarse. Becoming pretty big these days. Think I need to move to adelaide. I dobt really have any special tickets but done allot of differ ent stuff like woolworths and coles maintenance on there combi ovens and stuff like that.

Im looking at putting a 2 1/2" system with high flow cat and extractors on my fg xr. First of all the installer says theres an issue with the co2 sensors not being long enough for extractors, can you buy an extension for the lead for this or is there another way around it. Also what should I be paying for this kind of system and is it something I could do myself. Any recommendations of what you guys think is best or any tips on na exhausts for fg at all. Thanks

LIve in the riverland and just work 38 hours a week for a small company doing domestic commrcial and industrial. But no plc experience. Would love your job though. your doubling my salary fml! Who u work for. Is that a standard going rate for adelaide sparkys.

Johnny depp ftw. Ill watch anything with him in it but public enemies has to be my favorite

Im a sparky in country sa on roughly 60k a year with a company car but if u want to do it u really need to work your way up to that. Adult apprenticeship wages are ok bit not enough if u have a family with one wage a house mortgage and car loan. Ud need a second job behind a bar or something. As for test tagging we send our 1st year apprentice to do all of ours. Nuff said. It sucks
-
Yeah was just some random silver the crash repairer had lying around but worked well. Used to match my old lensos too but lent them to a mate and he got boned into a kerb shattering 3 of them

Ok too easy. I have an xr50 so I get confused as far as what is standard or extra as mine is different again. Xr50s yeild a gloss black surround so that could be unique to my car or could be a third option to consider.
-
Heres my xr50 I picked up this week. Anyone want to photoshop some low and stance sc5s for me EDIT..... wow sorry about the upside downness. Not sure how that happened. I know ill cop it now after the talk of taking photos on ridiculous angles. Mine would have to take the cake
-
Yeah I know mate but I refuse to start watching it until the entire season is out cos otherwise ill loose my s**t when I cant watch the second half. Yeah bit dumb I know. Can wait 12 months to watch start of season but cant wait to watch second half once iv started
-
Mate the screen colour is black when headlights on and grey when there off? If that's what your referring to? As far ss the options in the lux and tech packs. It really varies depending on the year you buy. The 10" colour display for example I believe was an option till 2010 and then bec a me a standard. Just shop around and ul soon pick up on what the extras are and we hat ones u want and what ones u can live without
-
Already mentioned only once but breaking bad is my favorite atm cant wait for the new season. Anyone else seen these. Also I havnt seen it but game of thrones is supposed to be properly good

Sorry freaky must of missed your hint. My bad. Anyway just a lil update. Had a guy called mario from a place called mc2 automotive look it over for me. Did a really thorough job and was really easy going to deal with. Hes in dandenong and he charged a whopping $0. Good bloke. Not sure if hes a member here but is an xr6t owner. -
Mate its your car you treat it how you want. I had my ba turbo for 6 years and hit limiter maybe 3 times and two were due to wheel spin. If your mates wana thrash there cars then let them. I once told my mate he was soft and push his supra harder, a few miniutes later and there was a headlight on my lap inbetween me and a willow tree. Drive it how u want.
