He sold his nice modified XR6T and bought a disgraceful efeminate Hilux SR5.Then sulked out of here like the blouse wwearing school girl that he is, was just checking to see if he had not returned. ScottyPS love ya SHOCK come back Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39710-another-introduction/page/2/#findComment-595042 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although if he drove a hilux SR5 he must have at least had good taste As for the warranty thing... probably pretty good advice there.. Maybe I'll wait until after my first couple of services just to be on the safe side. Some people were saying they dont detect it.. but that is a discussion for another thread methinks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39710-another-introduction/page/2/#findComment-595066 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrmm the cobra stripes sound like a good idea matey im thinkin on octane a nice set of 19inch black rims and lowering would look great with the stripes Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39710-another-introduction/page/2/#findComment-595531 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Member 182 Member For: 17y 6m 27d Gender: Male Location: Australind, WA Posted 13/11/07 10:34 PM Author Share Posted 13/11/07 10:34 PM Hell yeah you read my mind man! The orange looks sweet with some black highlights. The brand new XR comes with 18" rims with some black on them already, they dont look half bad... but we shall see how long it takes to get the 19"-20" bug... Also they have some black bits on the front spoiler, side skirts and arse end too. At least visual stuff wont void warranty!

Joey Member 182 Member For: 17y 6m 27d Gender: Male Location: Australind, WA Posted 14/11/07 01:39 AM Author Share Posted 14/11/07 01:39 AM Hehe I like that advice better Bah who needs a warranty anyway hey! Yeah I went with the T56. I used to have an auto soarer and it made me utterly insane. I would never own an auto again after that, even one as good as the ZF. I also rekon its way more awesome to drive a manual turbo, nice to hear the thing as you change gears I think mods will be minimal really as I need this thing to be reliable to drive me from the coalfields back to the sunshine coast relatively regularly (around 750ks)I'm thinking:- FPV CAI- K&N filter- High flow cat and center muffler removal- Bigger intercooler (so damn hot out here)- Flash box and custom tuneI figure that should be good for around 300kw at the boots, which should be plenty without getting me in too much trouble with ford. You guru's rekon that sounds reasonable? I have already ordered the Tripod and xforce guages to keep an eye on things Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39710-another-introduction/page/2/#findComment-595716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
