  1. This has been said many times before, if you change any part of the exhaust you will need a tune. Or in your case a re-tune.
  2. Fronts don't crap our as much as the back one. But while you're there you should go Superpro for all of them.
  3. Would be silly to not change/upgrade them while you're there.
  4. Don't Ford AU/NZ have standardised pricing? So should be roughly the same across dealerships?
  5. I didn't even know this was a thing! I've never seen it and I have my bonnet open A LOT [emoji23]
  6. How did you find the wheel bearing had play?
  7. Hmmmm take rotors off and make sure they rotor and hub surface is clean of debris? This can cause a wobble. Also could be warped rotors.
  8. Could be a bad wheel balance or tyre starting to fall apart (a bulge or wobble in tread)?
  9. Ford AU are cheap so it'll be a single motor electric if anything.
  10. Would be one hell of a job trying to marry the PCM to the body modules etc
  11. Clutch thrust bearing? Or spigot bearing perhaps?
  12. Auto or manual? Could be flex plate if auto.
  13. A knock sensor after the cat??
  14. Just replace the belt? Did you look at the picture? Water pump is shagged.
  15. Eeeek that does not sound good. Sounds like an old diesel! Does it sound bottom end? Towards front or back of engine?
  16. Yikes - yeah definitely take that back and stop driving it if you can. That's not a direct bearing noise - but seems to be as a result of it being out of balance.
  17. Stock one is a recirc valve and when open will be sucking in through air filter. OP is the turbo smart one you have a recirc or vent to atmo?
  18. Set it so it doesn't leak under boost or vacuum.
  19. When you say 'bumpy', do you mean it's firm/hard almost like the springs are too firm? Or is does it bounce up and down a lot, like the shocks aren't doing their job?
  20. I'm in New Zealand and still get pads from him.... Heard of a telephone?
  21. Talk to Race Brakes in Sydney. I forget the guys name but he's always give top service and advice and price as well. Tell him what you use the car for and he'll sort you out.
  22. That sort of power is about at the end of the stock coolers limit. I bet your intake temps are pretty hot even after one pull with it. Get a bigger cooler. Not Chinese.
  23. Hi all. I'm in NZ - so unfortunately I don't have access to the plethora of transmission builders you guys talk about and use in Aussie. I'm looking to get my head around what is required to use the 6R80 input shaft in my ZF. From what I can tell you can buy 6R80 input shafts and friction/steel kits from the states for 'fairly' cheap. What else is required for these to 'bolt in'? The shaft spline is different so need to get a matching torque converter as well? For example: https://www.beefcakeracing.com/bcr-6r80-stg2up/ What else is required to mate this to my currently stock ZF? If this is even the right route to be taking? Not looking for a $10k build but would like something that can handle 400-500rwkw without breaking input shafts etc.... Cheers! Hunt
