  1. Hmmmm No Prices yet....people were saying that if its like their WRX kits you should be looking around 6 to 8 Gs(Phase IV that is)? Brings the total to Just a smidge over the XR8 and still short of the GT...with the advantage of 300 odd RWKW
  2. Isnt there a member round here somewhere that has a Despoilered debadged Black Turbo?

    From Memory that is the plate in most Motor mags with the test cars...Hmmm off to search the Tip...I mean my room.
  4. I think the Gist of that last review was the XR8 isnt a muscle car per-se its a more livable with tourer with muscle...

    Hi Olocoolone.Welcome to the forum.Sorry bout my previous..errr...Rant. RE:Question 8-This Differentiation has been going on since the AU 1 TE and TS 50's...The TE50 was absed on the Forte while the TS50 was based on the Fairmont (Ghia?)....
  6. It is more of a prestige colour.Not to bad on the Fairlane like a few mentioned but with the round lights and deep front air dam...hmmmm

    Jsut because I'm not as fortunate as some to have X amount of Z cars in the last Y years doesnt mean I cant have a valid opinion. I see you dont have a Turbo yet...So are you muzzled in your views yet? I see you believe your not.

    Now XR6PSI play nice with the Old Beggars and the Boss's... Is this leather thing true?I mean Vinyl cmon?I havent seen a BA yet with leather(cept a GT and I wasnt game to go within 10 Foot)so I have no idea.
  9. Yeah its just Sacrificial Cathodic(Bless their little hearts) Protection.We had an aftermarket one installed in our EA...it rusted out!Found out it was installed utterly incorectly..ie no annodes... In our EB (where it was installed by a Auto Electrician who knows what hes doing)it still has no rust over a YEAR later and we are a stones throw from the beach and the air is so salty you dont need to season steak.

    QUOTE (saleen1 @ Jun 8 2003, 05:03 PM) I have 19's. Look great, but what does the rubber cost to replace and do they actually improve grip and/or handling? Maybe...but the cool status points are worth far and away more than 1000 Pirellis...

    This Nitto game is pretty damn cool...like an Online Gran Tourismo(But only 6 or so cars :( ) im nly playing it on a 667 Celeron with Dial Up so most people can have a go I assume.... If you can,try this game...
  13. What Motor Mag is this from?Is there a new one out already!God Ive just finished the one with tha APS XR6... Gotta find my $8 quick smart...
  14. It almost British Racing Green...I like it....Maybe it needs a little white circle on the Bonnet and Racing Tape over the Headlights? Damn you and your jag's father....
  15. Lumpen replied to a post in a topic in Ford Discussion
    5th is about .75 in the manual and 4th is .68 isnt it?So the auto would(technically)have a higher top speed...but then theres aerodynamics and other power losses in the equation
  16. Illegal to make a hole? Anyway a "Free-Air" sub isnt going to be the best option...I know its Doof Doff Ricey but if your going to Upgrade the Sub Box them up. Im sure someone here can do the Arthimetic to design a tuned enclosure to box a nice sub properly...Jaycar have some nice 8" im pretty sure and most of their Theile-Small stuff too.
  17. That guy is thinking I own a bullet proof vest and my Oil Burner Caprice weighs 4tonne because of all my Armour so you cant do nothing to me...Nah nah nah nah nah...
  18. Lumpen replied to a post in a topic in Off-Topic
    Ahh the old T-Bird...351 with Racing Manifold,Dual Quad Throat Racing Carbs(Extra Shiny of course) and a Racing 4 Speed Manual.... Memories.... I'll report on that Nitto Game soon...16% of the Zip so far...thanks Citric
  19. Lumpen replied to a post in a topic in Off-Topic

    Out a bit from the Brisvegas but if you want a Brass Monkey holiday as well I know that Sam DiBella from Stanthorpe Carline mufflers does absolutely beautiful work.Has done on both my dads two latest cars.An EA 3.9MPEFi and an EB XR-8. He is ultra Professional and a ford lover to boot.

    So which of these do YOU think has the least desire to follow road rules?
  23. Hmmm almost 500 T's???25 is a bit closer isnt it? 10,000 dollars for insurance and you'd be worried?its 1/100 of the price of the car of about or around $440 for you people. Perhaps the Headline should be:BMW screws the Dog.Even the Luxary cant hide the ugliness. Oh its also $1,000,000 and DVD is STILL an option
  24. Lumpen replied to Lumpen's topic in General Tech
    He almost went for a drive in the Boss 260 Manual but after he started and revved the thing he didnt want to drive it..."I wanna buy it on the Note alone" but 50odd Large for an Pensioner Painter is just a bit too much... Unfortunately the Local(60Km Away)dealer hasn't got any XR's at all on stock any more so I just gotta catch one of you guys in my home town one day...Preferably in Blood Orange... Coming for a cruise to North Coast NSW guys? Otherwise I suppose waiting a few years till some of these Second hand Speed machines hit the road isnt that bad...
