Cool. 5.7L is quoted from caradvice as 250 kW, 525 Nm – 0-100 km/hr in 6.8 seconds. Maybe I was thinking of the SRT8, it was a while ago

Anybody else out there got size 12 or 13's and a manual T?

WTF is with the spacing between to go pedal and the stop pedal? The side of my shoes drags on the edge of the brake pedal when I come off the gas. It's sh*ting me to tears.

Trying being a size 16 with reasonably wide feet.....

The WRX was a much smaller (better built lol) car but there was heaps more room in the footwell. The thing which sh*ts me most is lack of fot rest. I'm very lucky I dont drive it everyday as I couldnt do it with steel caps in freeway traffic everday. Manho might remember me (and no doubt the smell) having to take them off when I took him for a blat through Ossy Park!

Steve, if you want a cruise, I'll throw my hand up to organise something I been working on...

"Dambusting at Dawn"

8am cruise on a Sunday in late September (So fine weather, no traffic, sun well and truely up). 240kms from Mundijong freeway exit, meet at Cockburn Central (gateways??). Not really a hang around meetpoints and talk poo for an hour (but should def be a friday night or 3 meet up at top carpark) sorta cruise

Drive decent driving roads, have a play, blow the cobwebs out (to the legal limit of course).

you should talk to Mark re the pedal issue. try getting your shoe stuck 1/3 way down the quarter mile and kind of heading towards the wall as a result of the brake locking up with the acellerator down. (edge of sneaker sole got stuck in that not so big gap)... so glad it wasnt me!! and yes its a no to driving in those sneakers..

first its a Wednesday and now your looking at 8AM.

I hade a good play with one when I first got the fg, sounded like zorst extractors on it too... wasnt really comparable though imo.

but then I had the small comp wheel which was pretty mean spool

they look class but especially with some bling rims tucked.

No last week it was Wednesday but next time I go for a similiar dams run it'll be earlyish on a nice spring, Sunday morning

If that sort of cruise appeals to others and they want to come, great . If its just me and a mate or two, that's great to!

do they clear brembos

my mini dish on current rims is annoying enough to whipe the dush off every day.. let alone the weekly clean between all the spokes. 5 spoke is easy cleaning imo

Not too sure on that, your prolly better off cheaking with PDW, I highly doubt they would though.

A nice early run would be good, its something diffrent from the usual. Plus sleeping in would 6:30-7am latest, my body clock used to being up by 5am lol.

LOL Ross, you wont find much tuffoon at my place of a night time, I work nights! And plenty of days as well

Luke, mate I'm a size 15 now and even a few years ago when I was on my L's learning to drive in my dad's old manual ute & could get away with a size 13/14 shoe I had epic problems...

DJ, those rims that Hiro is putting on his FG are farking WIN, don't have a pic but from memory they are 5 spoke glossy black centred with a nice rolled polished lip with that awesome multi-coloured affect same as the rims Feebs & deano13 have. I think on your car something with a black centre & without a million spokes in 20" all round (22" rears on a sedan & I will urinate on you) will suit it best.

Kice these are the wheels I had ordered for my FG F6, I had to cancel them when I got run over as being of work for 6 months money was to tight.

I would never run a anything bigger then a 19 on the front, Im still yet to see anything bigger then a 19 not tough somewher in the wheel well.

I had ordered a 8.5 and a 10 for the rear but the 10 was going to be tighter then a fishes behind.
