    I use TPG dialup unlimited which is $16.95 p/m.Generally a fast connect with 6kbps d/ls...I am in the bush but and the server is around 60Kms by line. I know they also offer unlimited 256KB broadband for 70 P/M in cities and 100 P/M in the bush...how does that stack up....their Broadband(limited)starts from 20..No I dont sell for them but I am very happy with my dialup at least

    I got bagged out by a guy in a car stereo store for wanting to buy a cassete player: "Why would you want that?that's just stupid.Casettes are old.Dont you want a cool cd player" Didnt have time to tell him wanted a Stacker too...
  4. Dont all you lucky buggers just want your XR6T's to go alot faster?I know I'd want mine to, I wouldnt care who was doing it.Just as long as it was tested and reliable....and of course FAAAAAAST...
  5. The standard VL Turbo wasn't intercooled.Its all the hardcore P Platers(Id be one if I could)that have the Big Front mounts and all the rest.I know a guy who was a friend with the guy (Brothers Aunts Mothers Uncles Sister... :-) )that had the White VL in Zoom a couple of mags ago that had 290Kw at the wheels, and that's a 3000Ft! It scared my friend....

    I got a feeling (Hunch) that FPV's next projext will be an RS Focus (or, god willing Cosworth RS) type deal rather than another BIG car. Then we'll see a Boosted XR6T and the manic Mustang Engined Supercharged GT-HO.The reason I think it will be in this order is that Expensive Daewoo is bringing out a 147KW Turbo Astra...We MUST have supremacy on ALL fronts loyal Ford Men...WE can wait, we (well you) have a 240KW Turbo at the moment. Then the FPV Turbo some forumers designed here somewhere and the Range Topping, King of the Hill.GTS Whopping, M5 Beating, AMG Thumping,370KW 650 Nm GT-HO....

    We attacked the badges on my friends first car... the 9.2L Bussh*tmi Wanga got a few double takes

    I read that ford could only hit 220KW at the low safe boost they wanted with the 35 so they whacked on the 40 and hit a nicer 240KW! I spose we could use 500Horse but then why not buy an XT and do it up if you gonna change the turbo,intercooler,EMS, VCT and all the rest?save yourself 10000 because all that an modded XR-6 like that is going to have in common with a stocko T is the interior! damn that's an expensive interior!
  10. XY GT that is....
  11. I guess that if ford was to charge a hundred large for the GT and it performed like a R8 then its time to be annoyed but it aint even a Clubsport in price and anyway the standard XY could barely run 14's where as the HO.... XY GT that is....
  12. Dont talk to me about Ford fuel gauges...My XF just changes for the hell of it I think! It is never the same....sometimes it takes 200KM to move off full, sometimes at 200KM its empty...My dads old EA S and EB XR-8 both went down to the 1/2 mark slow and just rocket to the empty...we had 500 to 1/2 in the EA and only ended up getting around 700!

    The Pprsche will do 12.8 all day, flog around, flat knackers over a race track all night and pull 12.8 again the next day....

    Yeah they claimed that PCOTY was biased to aussie cars...Germans came 1st,2nd,4th and 6th and they bagged the HSV and SV8 something horrible
  15. Lumpen replied to DallasQLD's topic in Off-Topic
    That Kryptonite was the thing on that SSX?Its was cool unlike the Hothouse Green that resembles the vomit that occurs every time I see a bombydore in that colour.Blood Orange is cool too though you can go past a Hemi Orange or Hot Mustard R/T chrager...
  16. Now that is one very serious set of brakes...cross-drilled though.However I think CSV had 380mm discs on their 330Kw Veloce.but either way they're eyeballs through the windscreen deals..
  17. I must admit I would've thought that all the stuff from TSI would net more than a 33% increase in power considering Ford were apparently seeing 300KW with "boost spike" testing!309Kw seems possible with more boost and "more aggresive timing"especially if its for optimax.
  18. ta muchly for that
  19. and heres me thinking all those greek guys were just working out new recipies...
  20. Lumpen replied to Goose's topic in Off-Topic
    nsw we have ps till 20 I think Red Plates(90 k limit for min of twelve months) and then greens(100 k limit for 2 or maybe three years)and no grog till you 25...I think never actually looked at mr license regualtion...
  21. This is good,we got people from the industry working with us so soon!We have brakes. Do I hear Exhaust,Wheel and Tyre,Suspension.......
  22. I hate bikes,I really hate bikes from the first DR90 I laid on top of me when I was 9 to the Ducati 600SS mock-race bike that my brother tried to double and therefore kill me on BUT that does sound kinda cool. But like this guys say,falling off kills and I just wonder how long the human smelling smudge would be if you fell off this? It would make you cocky XR6Ters think twice though not to mention those pesky Tomahawk Missile owners...

    I got pulled over in my Dad's XR8(Only and EB,for now) for an RBT.I was impromptu driving him home after he had a bottle of wine and was pissed as..then I got booked for not having P Plates!$74 and 2 points of 4 points!Oh their devlish hide!
  24. theres actually two different formulas aren't there one relating to HP and ft/lbs and another one for Kw and Nm's. I remember that HP and Ft/Lbs are the same at 6000 odd revs and Kw/Nms are the same at the 9548Rpm. And I knew it had something to do with a circle.
