aiboart Member 665 Member For: 19y 3m 10d Posted 06/07/08 08:36 AM Share Posted 06/07/08 08:36 AM :hiwelcome: Yours could very well be the most significant technically related posting in a very, very long time.One imagines it would point to the future mainstream viability of the existing XRT fleet, the nature of the future model releases and quite possibly the future of the entire Australian (built) car fleet. I think it is now somewhat clearer why Ford and GMH are not falling over themselves for diesel and hybrid. Regards,aa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozge Member 2 Member For: 15y 10m 30d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 10/07/08 03:04 PM Share Posted 10/07/08 03:04 PM LPG injection is the way to go nowadays, you might even gain a couple of rwkw!Gain a couple of rwkw??? Should speak for sure as it would do the opposite. I have seen XT's, XR6's, Futura's, etc, come with LPG from factory ford but no Turbo cars. They are not designed for it and will not do any good. I see everything in order:Diesel: Yes its sky high but u get more kms and longer lasting for the car and its all been done with new cars today.Petrol: Gone up and predicted to rise but its PETROL, quoting the above response, everything relys on petrol from what octance you use, kws, performance and every car today is built for it, etc...LPG: Cheap as Chips, nah not really, and everything seems to rise as one follows.----> ELECTRIC CAR(TOYOTA): Should it be the Hybrid Car??? I believe so. cos this is the next generation of our future cars. It will leave the diesel, pertol and LPG behind. Lots to say but wanna keep it short, According to conducted search, experiments, They have made and built electric cars faster than cars at present (YES, INCLUDES FERRARI'S). So I'll leave the rest for you guys to think about???I just dont believe its the smartest idea of all. But good luck with whoever decides to go ahead with. If petrol was at $3.00ltr, it still wont stop me from anything. Love my Fords and with it all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame the Vic gov doesnt do the same rebate.... And a shame they havent developed the gauges any further than what they were way back in the 90's, you'd reckon someone would have made a halfway decent looking one by now....

Still happy?ABout the only two things I could be picky about with your fit are the small 40L useable tank, and the placement/style of the gauge unit..Overall, great install!!
