XR6TURBST5

I'm looking at getting a XR5, however I'm not sure of the differences or if any year models have less faults ect... Please help. Cheers.

Hi all, Was thinking of getting a xr6t again after selling my xr6t and typhoon. There is alot of BA auto's out there some with low km's. Had an idea of purchasing one and installing a T56 gearbox, am I going to come across any problems doing this? Are the auto's detuned? any info would be great thanks, Josh

Nice cars guys, looks like a good deal to me! The cops look like they get rid of them quickly to hold resale.

Hey samboc how much did you pay if you dont mind? good price? what auctions?

Yeah I knew they had F6's but whats with the XR6T's and old f6 wheels? do they want bigger tyres for more grip? or is it for the big brembos?

Does anyone know about the new FG XR6 Turbo highway patrol cars the cops have got? They are equipt with BA Typhoon wheels, Brembo brakes ect They would be worth a look later on down the track. Thanks Josh

So you guys are saying with a custom tune and bigger injectors you can get better fuel ecconomy? I have a stock F6 6spd manual with K and N air filter I drive my car about 8KMs on a freeway to work so it just gets a chance to warm up and I get 15.7 lts to 100km. I would really like to see the difference with a custom tune.....

IS THERE ANY MEMBERS UP HERE IN NORTH QUEENSLAND THAT WANT TO GET TOGETHER AND GO FOR A CRUISE? CAN WE START A TOPIC ON THIS PLEASE?

how much?

Hi all, Sorry I'm a bit confused is this event in Bris? If so could yo please add two for me? thanks

Well heres a story, Ford chermside took my clutch out and said it was farked. My father had it couriered over to his suspension and exhaust shop. He looked at it and didnt see anything wrong with it so he took it next door to a transmission specialest and he didnt see anything wrong with it so he took it to slacks creak brake and clutch. Again nothing wrong with it. Now when my father called ford to ask them what they thought they were doing down there they said they had replaced the slave cylinder for the clutch under warrenty as well. mmm so they just thought they would replace the clutch at the same time.....5ks worth of work to the owners cost. lucky they didnt. Clutch is being sent back tomorrow NOT HAPPY.

Thanks for the help guys. I have chosen to go with the Mal Wood option 3 clutch. Single plate 11inch. If the problem is still there look out ford....

Does anyone know the cost of a mal wood twin plate job? Where could I source an AP clutch apart from ford?

Does not sound good are there any other options if replacing it yourself?

Have you had a clutch replaced?

First of all I have been a manual driver all my life, Second I had a xr6turbo with a T5 manual that was running 260kw ATW and never had a problem with the standard clutch apart from it slipping sometimes from the power. The car had done 73000 kms. From what I here these twin plate clutches are a pain in the rectum. The clutch was something that atracted me to the F6 but I'm having second thoughts.

Hey all, I have owned my F6 for about 6 months I bought it with 32000km and have had a few problems of late even though I havent driven it much at all. Firstly I had a problem with the battery going fully flat over a two week time span of not being started. Replaced the battery then 2 months later the same thing happend. They said it was a faulty battery my G/f told them that they were full of sh*t and there is something draining the battery that shouldnt. It was fixed, But upon driving the car home the brake alarm light came on. Took it back they said they fixed it but on the way home my G/f felt the car was a bit different to drive and it was hard to put the car into second gear. Then after starting the car at home there were now two lights. The ABS and brake lights were on. WTF? Now it is at ford they told my G/F the problem with the car was dirty clutch fluid I said that was bullsh*t so I made a call they said they had changed the clutch fluid but the clutch had a lot of travel in it so they wanted to pull it out and have a look. If it is the clutch they said they will charge me for they job but if its the gear box or presure plate they said it would be a warrenty claim. I spoke to a friend who was head of servicing at a ford dealership and he said the presure plate had problems with springs braking so I am hoping it is that. They still havent fixed the ABS brake light problem :( If anyone can give me some info about these problems please reply.
