That's great news deek

No it's 0002

You should have posted that on the first page it would have saved me some worry

Deek, given you got out of a modded T , interested in your first report on the stocker Phoon

That would be very interesting to hear

Finally in my driveway.

It's almost like having a new baby in the family, the amount of friends and family that have stopped by just to have a look

First impressions. Well it's not a brutal as the T. In the T when I planted it the auto would kick back and the tyres would light up. I love the gear box in the Phoon especially driving in performance mode, slowing down is very cool the way the auto brakes the engine like a manual. The upshifts seem a bit lazy to me but after the T anything would. Or it could just take some getting use to. The ride seems a bit harder. I am use to 19's with low profile rubber so it must be the suspension.

The brakes Holy Crap!!!!!! I've gone from standard brakes (with standard shudder) to 6 pot Brembos front and 4 pot Brembos rear. I reckon if you stood on the hard and you where older than me you'd your teeth would be sucked out!

My T looked hot and got it's fair share of looks and finger pointing but everyone looks and points at this. Or perhaps my fly was undone again

I love it!

How cool is the starter button?

The brakes are great on these things You get heaps of people wave, point, turn their heads etc. Glad your enjoying the car! I have to say, great colour too

Deek

Interesting first impressions. Personally I have the paupers Brembo's and they are miles ahead of the DBA 4000 rotors and Ferodo pads I had on the T ( seems like a life time ago )

It will be interesting to see what the first Dyno run shows.You know as well as anyone the beast will be getting injectors, edit and custom tune very soon. Brutal is back and some

Just an edit alone will see the car come into it's own due to the ZF. That said I also

agree that the"auto mode" changes are " floaty" ( where is that farking software !!!).

Mind you it's pretty cool how it down changes into a corner under hard brakes and is in the right gear to punt you out the otherside.

In terms of ride and handling, my T suspension was completely stock as was my BA Phoon. The

BF Phoon handles as well if not better than it's BA predecessor , maybe due to the 19"s, but does so with a greater degree of refinement, no where near as harsh/stiff ride as the BA.

In all the BF stock Phoon seems an allround better, quieter and a much more complete car than the BA

Once modded , well just an awesome daily driver, with than more a touch of menace available with the flick of an ankle.

Mate if you can't handle all the new female attention, save 'em the Vikings cometh

when I planted it the auto would kick back and the tyres would light up.

The police might take the car away from me for a short time because of that same fact if I keep doing it

Is just so bloody addictive I tell ya
