Diff Between Ba I And Ii

[muncher]

Hi Guys.

Been offered a BA I turbo Falcon 2004, with luxury pack.

Can anyone tell me the diference between the I and II BA.

This motor has low K's and one owner, sounds a minter. If I go for it I plan on doing some mild tuning ie:Zorst, airbox and chip it (or edit as you say down under, I think)

Any help would be great.

Cheers ...............muncher

BA Mk 2 has a few differences, the big one being the availability of the 6 speed manual. They also have better valve springs, centre arm rest in rear seat, I'm sure there are a few other differences but I cant think of them.

Dont worry, both come with driveline clunk as standard

if you are going to mod it series 1 brakes and valve springs being the first things.There was talk of th mk1`s being a bit quicker than the mk2`s but if you wack th edit on won`t make a difference which one you get.

Series2 got better valve springs ,how much better is debateable depending on kw`s you want you may still need to change.Got armrest in middle of back seat,lost the lid that closed over the drink holder,auto lheadlights off.And a few more things nothing special but I am hungry gotta eat,Mk1 will probably be a bit cheaper to buy obviously.

MkII rims for me!

Did the MkII also get illuminated power windows switches??

[cobrav8]

Yes - Mk2 got illuminated window switches, 'unique' mk2 badging, auto lights on/off, different wheels, valve springs, manuals are 6 speed, and some new colours.

I prefer the Mk2 17s - and in fact think they are better looking than all the 18s etc that have been options. They are so good - I wont be getting any aftermarket wheels.

The luxury pack is very nice (I have the seats only), you get the sports leather seats (leather and swede), dual zone climate control, and clock in place of an instrument pod, as well as the silver finish dash.

Have you had a look around for a second hand F6?

Thanks again for the replies, will be test driving this weekend. The differences don't seem too bad.

Cobra I haven't looked into the F6, may do depending on how the test drive goes this weekend....................muncher
