Nice photos Slikxr6t, the best l have seen from the show.

Your photos almost make the alloys look ok, well almost  :nuts2:

come on! they aren't that bad! :D

(if you think they suck, you should see the bodgey set we got on our AU!)

Would you liek to see? they make the F6 ones look excellent

I like the rims, the design looks functional as far as airflow goes, love the 2 tone effect. True they are no comparison to the GT rims but I wouldn't change them in a hurry. The grille? That's a different story, sorry but :smilielol: I'd rather “Rice Mesh” in its place, would probably look more appealing. :sick: And that’s saying something.

Still favour the GT but the F6 is a damn sexy looking car and being in a dealership looking at both cars, yes it would be the decision from hell! :smilielol:

Awesome pics Slikxr6t :smilielol:

If you stare at them long enough they start to make sense. I like 'em! They give you a great view of the Brembo's too! :smilielol:

Are the guys who man the stands at the motorshow usually on the money?

Was told there will be no auto initially, only a manual.

If we are to believe that 550nm is too much for current autos, how close to the limit are the auto's in the 520nm GT's??

FWIW, I liked the rims (but nasty to clean), didn't think much of the mesh grills.

Remember when the 8's were first released with manual only as they were having problems with the autos? I believe the autos have always been marginal. As for the grilles what were they thinking???? Maybe the mesh grille from the old TE/TS - 50's might be the go?

What I did notice is that the injectors were blue on the engine which had the bigger intercooler. My question is does anybody know if the injectors are the same size/colour?

All Barra 6 petrol engines use blue injectors, but the XRT's have higher fuel pressure to increase their flow. Have to wait and see what the F6's will have.

I could be bothered looking through this thread to find is this has been posted already so here is a picture of the Typhoon's specs sheet from the Melb. motor show.

Has anyone else noticed the F6 Typhoon has a different turbo than the XR6T?

The XR6T runs a GT40 and the F6 runs a GT3540. Does anyone know the difference?
