  1. last night went to pick something up in me old mans ute which is a BA Xr8, I dont see there being a difference between the XR8's, turbos or standard falcons in terms of ignition barrels so I figured I'd still post this even though it is in the xr6 turbo section. reversed the ute up a drive way to load some stuff into the tray came back and went to turn the key to ignition and there was nothing, n dash lights or anything, anyway, called RAC out their road side assistance guy had a look and believes it to be the ignition barrel. just trying to find out how much roughly I'm looking at to replace the barrel, I'm in perth with the vehicle so if anybody knows any good places to get it done which wont cost me an arm and a leg, sorry forgot to mention I'm North of the river in perth but I've got 100km towing to any workshop, quite desperate as its on the property where a trucks usually parked. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
  2. hi just thought I might give these guys some comments .I originally had a one piece shaft (aluminium ) so I got this one made to suit my ute .it now has solid universals ,new bearing housings and a v8 super car slip yoke ,new centre bearing and higher grade and thicker wall steel tubing .all up cost me $700 (trade price ) my mechanic organised it for me .so far no problems ,had it up to 120 klm (private road ) ricky was unable to take it for a test run (family maters )but said any problems to take it back and he will sor it out ( centre bearing may need shimming if it vibrates ) they are in nambour qld 4560 1.5 hours from brisbane (farrows shafting service )07 54417277 ask for ricky .he is right down the line ,no bull sh*t
  3. just wondered if the gasket is necessary at all .only asking due to when I disassembled turbo from manifold there was no gasket .I have purchased a permaseal mls-r turbo gasket kit. is that ok to use or are there better ones ? or just do not fit one at all ?thanks for your help guys

  8. just converting from 3v v8 to turbo 6 .redcliffe dyno said that the aluminium tail shaft is not strong enough .so got to change it to a turbo 6 ute tail shaft .the wreckers send me some pictures but the part that bolts up to the diff (yolk )is different .mine is just 4 bolts and theres is 8 dolts but it has a big rubber thing on the end .my diff has got 8 bolt holes but just unsure if it will work ?
  9. have bought a hot side to intercooler piping kit of rapid systems ,after lots of arguments with him he still believes that it should fit .today I have spend about 3 hours trying to get it fitted but it just will not . so I am just thinking what can I do (rapid is just to hard to deal with no help at all just all the time ) I am running out of money and time ,so I might just fit the original hose instead .or was thinking of buying one that fits from a reputable shop .ps I have a nizpro cooler . please give some info of some that are recommended by people (not after looks just performance )

  16. I have a BA and have started upgrading my stereo except now I am getting close to the limits of the alternator and have read that just getting a second battery wont help as it wont be able to charge properly. Anyway, my question is, where can I get an alternator that will fit that can output about 220 amps or will I have to buy one and have an adapter plate made up. I am also looking for a second battery for it. I was looking at the Kenetic KHC3800, but if you have any suggestions I am all ears. Thanks Zach
  17. hi just tried to fit the line to the turbo side ,but the adaptor kit only screw in about 1 and a half turns into the turbo housing .have I got the wrong adaptor .it is a ba turbo kit ,and it is a ba turbo that I am trying to fit it to .has anyone had the same problem ? going to post pictures tomorrow of the different fittings to make it easier to understand what I am on about
  18. just got my new sump gasket today, going to change it on the weekend .it had no leeks but just wanted to take the sump of to have a look if it has any damage from the crash (bought engine out of a wrecked car ) also what internals it has (rods ) the engine had some work done to it from elite .so what I would like to know do I still use some silicone as well to seal it ,or only the rubber gasket ? also changing the harmonic balancer and water pump before fitting it all back into my ute just to be safe . ps does the harmonic balancer have a reverse thread ,just can not remmember
  19. hi just would like some feed back about the turbosmart e boost street ,I have bought one so I can run two boost without having to change tunes from my sct flash while I am driving .I have also found out I got to spend another $160 for a autometre tach adaptor so that I can hook up a shift light and rpm sensor wire to the boost controller .so my question is does the boost controller gain me any benefit at all using my sct flash tuned by elite .I will have to get my ute retuned due to mods I have done to the turbo . just would like to know if it helps them to tune the car as well . thanks for info
  20. can anyone recommend them .just had a talk to them ,and liked what they had to say .but I would like to know if they are as good as they claim they are .I already have a sct flash tune that he would not use at all .he said he would just use my original computer and re program it to suit (apparently better than the sct flash) I can still have two tunes as I have a turbosmart electronic boost controller .so for the street I will have a light tune and for the strip all they can get out of it without the rods letting go . so can I here some comment about the standard computer v sct . ps someone said that they can not adjust the gear change (harder and faster ) on the btr gearbox on a standard computer but on a sct they can (just got the btr rebuild with au parts and pump and solenoids ) thanks for any info
  21. Hey guys, the name is Sam I just stumbled across this forum and thought, what a great place to get advice, I'm don't know too much about cars due to being new to the car scene. I just turned 18 two days ago, I own a 2003 BA xr6, everything is stock currently. I have been driving this xr6 since I first started on my L plates, I know the car fairly well. However I'd like more power. I am starting to look at exhausts and extractors.. Is there any other things I could do to look at some decent power increases? Please include brands that you would recommend. Please no comments like "if you want power get an xr6 turbo" or "just wait for yours full license"... It's my money and I'd like to spend it on what makes me happy Cheers. - Sam PS. attaching a photo of my Baby
