    Coilovers?

    years ago a mate bought a F6 with pedders coilovers on it, low as but rode smoother than his G6ET, Ivé got shockworks on my XR6T set up as per shockworks recomendations, ride is firm, proberly not what I'd want from aG6E!
  2. Could try this, if it's a wheel baring the noise usually varies with load, driving hard around a left hand corner, the car will lean and transfer the weight to the right hand side. If it's a wheel bearing the noise should change (usually go's quiter) try it through a right hand corner to load up the other side. If the noise does'nt change it could be the diff (that noise should then vary with the amount of power put through it) If you think it"s tyre's, try different road surface's (for testing purpose's don't be afraid of running directionable tyre's backwards)
  3. try fpv joe, advertises on gumtree, at glendenning. if he cant fix it will have another one
  4. maybe should look at a brembo upgrade work fairley good (except for chopping upper control arm bush's)
  5. turbo had a "hp" version of the 6 speed, better than the n/a but still not good enough (for us) turbo was german, fg n/a was chinese
  6. seen quite a few of them stripped, often thought of grinding the edge of a 6mm nut and fitting it to a longer bolt (can see the tip of the bolt behind p/s pump) but the idea never went further than a thought!

    Rear bump stops

    that's right, they arn't just stops, they are part of the suspension
  8. late fg2's & fgx's came out with stronger wheel bearings, not the station wagon diffs of the earlier models. Some diff place's were offering this as a upgrade for people who used to carry weight in their ute's. I think ford copyed it as a running change (after they announced the end of falcon prodution)
  9. don't forget about the turbo filter inside the hollow bolt that suppies the oil feed
  10. check fuel pressure, supposed to be around 60 psi at idle. good idea to check ignition coils
  11. try running hydralic oil instead of transmission fluid, a ford engineer said they ran into that problem with tickfords with bigger wheels, something about trans fluid not 'shearing' under pressure
  12. also check fuel pressure
  13. we've got a pool, used it for a while, come home from work, turn on a/c... to hot in sun... stay inside. find someone with a pool and use theirs! If you do get one, best thing we did was a pool cover, stops evaporation, sun breaking down chlorine, keeps a loot of leaf & dirt out of pool. Always check for wildlife before jumping in!
  14. g6e has a different plug so trying to use them is going into a rabbit hole. you need the door looms as well as the interior side looms, not impossible but a lot of work. use xr50 mirrors & run a couple of wires to the side looms (to pick up the indicator signal)
  15. undo the 2 10mm spanner drain bolts under the gas convertor & see if water comes out (bad). take the gas hose of the t/body & see if gas comes out when you crank it. put your thumb over it & it should 'pop' when you release it
