Thought id add a few updated pics of my mazda and xr6t

some new wheels and lowered a bit

Yep, tuff tune performance at tuggerah

Thanks mate the ford was only just a quick one to get it back on the road while my Mazda was getting done, some bigger plans for the XR now lol

Couple pics of my '08 BF xr6 turbo with a FG F6 conversion and my rx3 I've got some exterior mods in mind, maybe some nice wide 19s and lowered but that's about it really.

Oh ok that's good to know! In that case I might just paint over the writing and core in silver and leave the rest polished..

I've done some searching around but haven't really found the answer im after.. Is there any way to remove that ugly logo writing some companies leave on their intercoolers? I'm happy with my cooler and would like to keep it polished but I think it looks sh*t with the writing on it.. Being on the fins I'm guessing it wouldn't be easy to remove so what can I do besides painting it black? Can you maybe turn it around? It's not the easiest thing to replace either because it's a g6e engine in a BF so has custom piping

Haha thanks mate, ive tried to keep the whole car black, red and white (interior on last page) nearly every single car has the bloody hex copie tail lights and are just looking sh*t now so I painted mine with all the other parts. It's hard to believe so much power can be produced from such a tiny engine, that and the sound is what first got me into them years ago.. it will be in hot4s soon

A few updated pics on the car, what a difference between this my bf xr6 turbo!

Pat, I was in the white bf that dosed on the highway hahaha

Seen SENNA the other day, been a while lol

Nope. I've already spoken to nizpro and process west about coil covers for the FG, both have measurements but neither are doing anything for like 6 months.. Only ones I've seen for FG are them ugly carbon ones.. Guess you could paint it but they're almost $500!

My bf mk2 has a zf tune.. It was making 390rwkw but tuned it back down. To be honest, if they didn't tell me I probably wouldn't have noticed but I'm used to driving an rx3 with a manualized 3 speed auto, you can't just change gears on that like on the manualized zf, you gotta really smack it into gear so driving this is like a dream hahaha

is it the same ''breeze'' as on the bf? I havent seen it on a fg yet, looks awesome mate

No actually, thanks heaps for the link. I wonder how hard it would be to make it plain black

Not sure if this is the right section, but does anyone know of any company's or people making rocker cover garnishes for FGs? I've emailed a few company's but no one has any..

hahaha yeah Im considering getting some black 20'' FR simmons to match the mazda lol

Thanks mate very happy with the car and the power, feels completely different to my old xr6 turbo haha

Thanks mate, sorry all the work was done by BTA motorsport

haha yeah I've been a little busy since getting it back.. the health is f*cked up mate lol!! long story short, last saturday night I was clinically dead after taking an accidental overdose on my pain/sleeping medication while I was very, very drunk. Had to be tubbed and revived by the ambos haha very lucky I guess.. wasnt my time when I went across 4 lanes into a tree and wasnt my time last week lol!! The biggest thing was convincing the doctors im not suicidal and to not lock me up haha but yeah the mornings are a LOT more comfortable instead of wearing 2 shirts, 2 jackets, gloves, scarf and beanie hahaha Now to enjoy the car, finally

I do love that matte black wrap...

Hey mate, worst start ever haha ah well, atleast it was a good excuse for mods lol nah it was dead stock when I bought it, I really wanted to go something built like atomic but having a show/drag rx3 in the build money was tight.

I already posted in the members ride section but thought I would add a quick post here with a dyno sheet.. Car was making 390rwkw but had to tune it back down due to valve float so its now on 349rwkw. Car drives like a dream and the powers there when you need it.
