some predict the new falcon will debut in feb next year? confirm? how about new F6 typhoon? (or FPV) I cant wait...man, I'm actually plan to get a typhoon this year, but all new model is just one year to go, I think I really have to wait (but I hate it, coz I'm not driving falcon at the moment and really wanna get something I want...typhoon)...
hi guys, just want yours opinion, let's say you have to choose one of those below (assume both sets are same price) 1) 'cheaper' brand, 18 inch with 245 front and 265 rear. 2) 'better' brand, 18 inch with 245 all around. which one would you choose?
emm, becoz of my work, yes, she has to sleep for quite sometime in the garage. previously, I dun drive my pajero for almost two months and nothing happen, I mean I still able to start the car without any problem. my fren car, some how, their battery will die or watever... if I dun run my car for such long time, is it bad to the car?
just went through discountusedcar.com.au, there's a 05 BA MII auto for only $23950 only. oh my god. it's cheaper than private sale car. http://www.discountusedcars.com.au/usedcar...xt=turbo&page=1
before this, I'm thinking of transplant turbo engine into an XT, and use it to kick HSVs , it could be fun . but make sure don't change any exterior things and paint the intercooler black. anyway, do anyone know how much to transplant turbo engine onto XT? I guess it will need a lot of work to do it...
hi, just wondering 4 spd auto or 6 spd manual (modified or stock at same level), which one will be faster on rolling acceleration (not on race track - different story)? I think 6 spd ZF should be the fastest, so I don't include in this comparison.
hi, can I ask u how much u spend for these modification? just wanna know. hav u upgrade your braking system, transmission cooler? get semi slick tyre next step should take off your rear seat together with spare tyre and other useless things when u go race. then the car should be faster without spend $0.01 just my opinion anyway.
my target is 500Hp at flywheel. that's wat M5 power output. so 300RWKW is good for me. may be will want more later. (I want to make my XR6T as an aussie M5 )
who know, supra's 2JZGTE and Skyline GTR's RB26DETT are inline six and use twin turbo. then why not, who know they will be better efficiency and reliability using different grade of turbo. and of course the next gen falcon really hav to be at least as good as the VE Late model camira .
will next gen F6 produce over 300kW? if so, how about V8? I dun think so, I think they will just improve the handling and fuel consumption, and overall quality. about the turbo, how about twin turbo? (think of RB26DETT)
just hopefully next gen falcon can be at least as good as the new VE Commodore (in term of market place and export...don't attack me on this). I mean falcon need export more to increase the profit and market share...but look at their parent (in US)...I don't know really... if the new falcon can be at least as good as the VE, then it might not be pure falcon as before, but is good for the future and australia automotive industry. (becoz Expensive Daewoo and ford need to compete for better product).
your situation is almost same as me. I won't buy ZF 6 spd at the moment (by considered this, money is real factor of course). what I mean is the new falcon is one year away (hopefully), so I think new and stronger ZF 6 spd should be there. anyway, just my opinion.
just wondering how they stole the key?...haha...I mean where the owner put their key?...in living room? I always put it in my bedroom. so no one can touch it (hopefully). years ago, my fren car got stolen. he put his key in the living room. the thief just break the glass door, and the car gone.
And WTF have gear changes in a celica got to do with an XR6T forum anyway????????? Flog the living out of it, 4's were built to redline!! !!!! ← easy mate... ...that's y I post in this section. anyway, thanks everyone.
emm...I understand that it will put more load on the car if u accelerate without downshift. but I dont understand how it will use more fuel? can u giv some example? thanks.
hi, just wondering anyone here how u drive manual car? I usually drive my car within 1000 to 2000rpm, which mean change gear around 2000rpm. I'm driving celica 2L manual at the moment, sometime will use 5th gear at 50km/h or even close to 40km/h at constant speed. what I want to know is this can do any harm to the engine in long term? the car mostly for city use and get 8L/100km.
