  1. Id read it as the first one you put up... Never been a big push up kinda person.. Any advantage over just going to the gym?
  2. Heres mine, can't really see it but that's how I like it... Nizpro No cutting etc... Just normal finish
  3. Saw it in 3d at IMAX.. added way more to the experience imo, you really felt like you were there with them, even scary at times..
  4. I loved True detective as well... Next season it will be two female cops and obviously diff story/location etc.. Kind of like American Horror story, changes every season. House of cards is awesome too, season one was better than 2 I found but great, first ep of season 2 was a big WTF moment... Started watching Black sails but didn't like it.. The following is great, a lot of twists and turns. Vikings is back with a new season which looks to be great again.. a lot of blood if your into that Suits is also back.. I watch too many shows haha...
  5. When I fitted my 4" Nizzy intake I thought it was loud as f*ck too, but you get use to it, now I love it... One of the reasons I bought a turbo, for the sounds..
  6. Ba engines are the weakest of the bunch, but with a good tune they can last and do pretty well (headsex etc....) as others have said a high flo cat/no cat, will cause over boost and give you grief.. tune the thing, not only will it be better for the motor, you get more benefits too, more power, torque, fuel economy, drivability etc..... Well worth the $$$
  7. Get to know the car and you should be fine.. You can hit a tree in a corolla or a 300kw xr6, its all how you drive the thing.. Drive like an idiot and you'll quickly learn..
  8. All your air conditioning and heater controls work, it's just the actual stereo bit of it that doesn't work. We'll it works, but mine isn't connected to the speakers anymore so you just can't hear it. All the audio goes through the new deck. My 6 stacker died so it's pointless anyway..
  9. Not sure mate, your best bet would be adding an aftermarket head unit, that way you can do whatever. Premo sound is sh*t anyway and if your 6 stacker hasn't died yet its about to.. This is what I have done and run everything off it..
  10. I have a BA with premo sound, 6 stacker etc.. Didn't play anything other than normal audio files, no mp3 cd's etc...
  11. Stock cooler's are fine until getting serious 300+ Hell I've got a Nizpro big cooler, 4" intake and only have 250rwkw's lol... (std exhaust) Car is a BA and can't afford it if anything breaks ATM so I'm happy.. I got the gear very cheap second hand, overkill yes, but when I want to chase more power I won't be needing to upgrade anything.
  12. So is this what I'm after? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261286275667?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D261286275667%26_rdc%3D1
  13. Who makes them and how much were they? Ive only really seen them on ebay from the states...
  14. that's all well and good, but you can't beat the quality and fit of 'branded stuff' Especially when you got the stuff for half the price second hand... Nizpro 4" intake and battery relocate kit, plazmaman piping. Air box is a Nizzy copy I think but it fits perfect.
  15. Thanks.. So 114.3 pcd and Centre bore is 70.3?
  16. I have FG lux 19 ' s and want them to sit flush on my BA sedan. My question what size spacer do I need and what are the specifications? I may get the guards rolled to get it super flush. Tyres are 245/35/19.. Cheers
  17. Best all round Tyre for the price... but for me my camber isn't great so they didn't last as long as they should. got Achillies on now and they are great for that price range and seem to cope heaps better with my camber..
  18. Its a bit of a risk even though BF mk 2's should have the stronger rods and gearbox should be fairly tuff.. All I can say is get it looked at thoroughly by someone who knows these things inside and out.. Check that the tune is fine, make it less of a risk for yourself... My BA has just under 200,000kms so for a MK 2 BF it is a lot of kms.. Your already winning getting rid of the SS lol...
  19. You need to think about how far you want to go. These things get very addictive once the boost is upped, you will always want more. Being a BA, they have the weakest engines and transmissions (BTR and 5 spd, unless you have a 6 spd manual?) so they will limit the total amount of power you can get without the need to worry about them. Any Stage 1 cooler will do the job if your wanting around 280rwkw. If you wanna do it cheap get, F6 cooler F6 2nd CAI and K&N filter Siemen Dekka 60 injectors Hi flo cat installed Fuel pump for safety Valve springs if you need them. Tune <--------- the most important part as to how long the engine and tranny will last. You will also need to speak to your tuner as to how he's gonna tune it Xcal, HP etc... cause you may need to buy an Xcal 3 which you can pickup second hand for around $500. You should sh*t in 280rwkw's..
  20. I'd add injectors and 2nd CAI to that. dekka 60's
  21. Yeah these BA's are getting friggin old ey.. But I still love mine and want to keep it. Fix/upgrade things as I go, if I sell it I'll be lucky to see anything near $10,000 and selling a car is the biggest pain in the ass ever...
  22. I had the same problem ages ago. When coming to a red light it would drop revs and stall, it became fairly frequent that I ended up putting it into neutral when coming to a stop, so then I could switch it back on quickly, was a pain in the ass.. Dunno exactly what fixed the issue, I got a retune for some mods and the problem never came back, I always thought it was the tune that was the cause. Everywhere I asked said it was this or that but with no definite answer. Have you had your car tuned recently?
  23. So I changed my plugs and coils and so far so good, Went for a spin and it didn't miss.. The old plugs were f*cked to say the least, I previously had a fuel reg failure and was pumping a lot more fuel than needed and rooted the plugs and just so happened to start missing when TC kicked in.. Plugs and coils would be a good pace to start IMO if your having the same issues..
  24. The only problem is that you need to re gap them yourself if your tuned. I don't know how to do this accurately.. How do others do it? What plugs come pre gapped?
  25. Well that would suck... Gonna do my coils and plugs this weekend so fingers crossed...
