  1. Just to add my experience as I have a BF F6 with the ZF. I've had the car a month ago pull 384rwkw (with approximate 900nm of torque) which is my 'fun' tune and my daily tune is 360rwkw. The car hasn't missed a beat so far and has been on two long nights of manual shifting in the 'fun' tune. A huge jump from 308rwkw for me. My car was tuned by Con at C&V in Sydney. So far so good, knock on wood. I have a few other little things to get done, then be knocking on '400' in the next few weeks. In saying that my personal opinion being that only past 400rwkw in constant pedal bashing will we see things fall over ie. the ZF. Alot of unkowns and none of us want to be made famous for officially being the first to brake the ZF in the phoons. Let alone that I"m running the stock engine which again raises many questions as to am I living on borrowed time? Just my opinion.
  2. I was at the cruise, but like I said, I wasn't too keen on going through nasho so we had a cruise with Jeff (DBOSS). I brought along an AMG & 911 Turbo the owners weren't too keen on going into the nasho anyway. I think if anything you guys missed out! As for the photoshoot, I'll make up for the next photo session (PROMISE)
  3. Guys, The weekend has been booked up for me. Unfortunately can't make it, hopefully next time. PS. Don't have too much fun without me.
  4. Guys, La Parouse is a top spot for photos, water, heaps of parking. After that we can go for a cruise also.
  5. Count me in also. Any location will do.
  6. The feedback is a little quite compared to previous events, not many of guys here are available or are trying to get their permission slips approved from their other half's. Either way good times are awaiting us.
  7. Guys, I have a few more cars that have confirmed from my side of things including a very exotic car joining us on the night. If the weather is anything like today we should have an awesome night.
  8. Guys, Going from Jeff's experience we should maybe pass on the national park. We've got lowered cars plus I don't think we want to damage the cars through there as we drive through enough pot holes on Sydney roads. The last cruise we went on was all highway which made things more fun. Don't forget the CB radios guys. PS. Jeff pm me details I'd like to catch up on the earlier run if that's cool with you. I'd love to see Brian (bcl) and his beast come along and Igor with his beast also if they are available!

    maybe Sylvester... Mine's Bill obviously.
  10. Maybe they've gone soft Or they think their too good to cruise with us
  11. Guys, Just a quick note to let you that I've recieved the injectors already through an urgent order as I needed it asap. Dan was really helpful in getting these to me overnight and also gave me some good info about the product and future mods. It's the first time I've ever bought anything over the net, but Dan was always in contact with me, so I felt comfortable parting with the cash. The injectors look the goods and my tuner swears these are the best injector for anyone that wants to upgrade from the 968's. For the price of these their great value and I'm sure the guys that will have these on their car will back this up. I will let you know the results once it's on the car after the retune next week. Dan was cool to deal with and at the prices he's got them for it's an easy decision to make. Good stuff Dan Bill
  12. Add me in Guys. Where's Jeff (DBOSS) and Rob (Saleen)??
  13. Count me in also if I'm not too late. One set of 6. How soon can we have them? How do sort out payment?
  14. Hi Mate, From experience with them you just need to be careful with the tires they fit to the rims as I've had my cousin and a few of his mates not being happy with the cheap tires they put on when you think you've got a good deal on the rims.
  15. Thanks for the info David. I'll look into it further.
  16. Great work mate looks awesome! As much as there is alot involved in putting this together. The interest is there, I think if there was a group buy around the $1500 painted then at least it's a start and I'm sure you'd have an order of 10 without too much fuss. Or considering your cost and obtaining our factory bonnets for trade in might be worth your while instead of buying them from ford. I'm definately interested.
  17. Guys, Running the below mods in signature, not much but looking to make the next step. Looking at getting more info before I throw more cash at the phoon. Fuel pump - Bosch 600hp 044# is this the part number and does it replace the factory pump or is it intank or does it feed into to the existing tank? How much power can this handle as I'm hoping towards 350rwkw. Looking at the Phase 3 from APS though want to know exactly what mods they do to the wastegate and does it get done in house or offsite for eg. GCG turbochargers. How much would that cost as an individual mod? Know of anyone that can do this. Is the Turbo itself a high flow turbo and is it worth touching apart from the wastegate mod? Running 14psi is it safe to move to 16psi or more and would it make much a huge difference in power? Sorry for the long post with so many questions just hoping to get your feedback. Cheers Bill

    Guys I won't be able to make it, not going to get the pump in time for the cruise. have fun, I'll be a definite next time.
  19. I might be in also, not sure yet hoping to get the fuel pump in by Friday
  20. Hey Boyz, Good turn out, no cops, plenty of hwy's, looking forward to the next cruise. For those of you that couldn't make it you missed out! The Phoon was definately pinging for all to hear, next pay checks going to the fuel pump.
  21. After all that action last night , I'm going to go and find myself a fuel pump.
  22. Guys, Where's the best place to get a CB radio for the cruise? Tandy maybe?
  23. Well Guys, It looks like next friday night as the likely day. As for time and location I'm sure DBOSS will sort that out for us. For those of you, now you know your deadline to complete your mods by next friday night. For everyone else NO KEBABS till next friday nite.
  24. Cro, Thank mate, I've sent a PM to the DBOSS. Cheers.
  25. Guys, I know there are current cruises organised but in my opinion members need more of a quick catch up I'm proposing more a friday or saturday night where we can catch up go for a drive and make a stop off at kebab shop or a pub. I'm a new member to the forum but it would be good to catch up with some of the characters from here and a have laugh and give the guys a chance to check each other's cars out. I know the last time something like this was attempted it was cancelled due to rain, but I think the weather will stay consistent and do something before it get's too hot. What do you guys think? Date / Time / Location. PS> Maybe even some of the boys from Central Coast and Newcastle can drive down for the night.
