  1. a flash tuner and a good custom tune will get you very close to 250 at the wheels. $1200 should do it. economy wont change no matter what size injectors you put in- the difference is the 'safety margin' as mentioned above. your stockies might be at 80% duty cycle at 250rwkw, whereas if you put in deka's or similar, they would prol only be at 50%. if you are happy with 250 at the wheels, then keep your stockies, but id bet my right one that after a bit more power you will get hungry and want more. a decent injector will support over 400rwkw, so if you do it now, at least you wont have to worry about it again. the next mod I would reccomend is walbro in tank fuel pump. a direct replacement. just make sure you keep at least 1/4 tank of fuel with 250rwkw, or you might get fuel starve under hard acceleration. next would be valve springs. atomic, nismo- it doesnt matter which ones, but an upgrade will be beneficial for reliability. iwent for typhoon springs- $250 or so from ford. happy power hunting!

    that's good value! someone could sell their typhoon, and have enough for this! why wouldnt you?
  3. yep the only way is to remove and modify, ore have another made up to your requirements.
  4. my wife said she wanted something with diamonds for our anniversary- so I got her a pack of cards other day I came home and the wife said "my car wont start- I think theres water in the carbueretter" I asked-" what makes you say that?" she replied: "because its in the river".
  5. why is divorce so expensive? cause its worth it....
  6. my sunroof leaks too- only when I auto carwash though. did you get it fixed HER(!)?
  7. found these on jaycar website- might do the trick... http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?I...mp;form=KEYWORD http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?I...mp;form=KEYWORD
  8. no doubt- try jaycar, dick smith, tandy etc. im pretty sure jaycar would have something...
  9. each to their own, but cant agree- how many pre 80's cars do you see with 19"+ wheels? looks cooooool. I had my 20's done.
  10. hi guys, anyone had any experience with these? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Ford-FPV-F6-Typhoon...id=p3286.c0.m14 fit? finish? its impossible to see from a small photo. cheers
  11. "......... honey, could you pick up some milk on the way home?" - "sorry- cant fit it in....."
  12. has a tendancy to sound little tinny and hollow at the front of the exhaust (not out the tips), but will flow plenty. have it cut out and gutted to get rid of the collapsed crap.
  13. im building a new house- and am making sure the garage is tall enough to put a car hoist in. thers a place in adelaide that does new 2 post hoists for 4k! how cool would it be to have a urinal in a house bathroom. lol.
  14. only prob with that is when you use a hi to low signal converter, the signal gets compressed, then amplified again, so quality goes down REAL fast. that's why some who have used this method describe the sound as 'muddy'. if the amp has hi level signals coming in through the harness, then the signal should be purer, due to no signal converting. in theory anyway...
  15. im running my 15" sub off the factory amp, but am about to upgrade it to a big mono block. been reading the threads about using hi level inputs or doing the rca connection to icc circuit board mod. ill prol add the rca's to the icc. question though: when I connected the sub speaker wire into the amp wiring connector I noticed that there are no rca's going into the factory amp, just wires. if an aftermarket amp had hi level (speaker wire) inputs, would there be any detriment to using the factory wires that go into factory amp instead of adding rca's? if so, anyone know which wires are the hi level inputs? cheers
  16. good luck mate- hope it all goes well. how much are you expecting it to cost by the time you get it back on the road?
  17. yeah I definately wouldnt recommend running the factory amp at full bass or full volume. with the 15" it gives a decent amount of bass at 2/3 bass setting, and on volume 26.
  18. that's great orsm. what rgb converter did you use for the factory screen? I just ordered these: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT
  19. im just about to buy some headrests with screens built in, but dont know whether to go 7" or 9". the 7's are cheaper, the 9's are obviously bigger, but might look a bit bulky? does anyone have headrest screens, if so what size? are the 7" big enough to see well? cheers
  20. so it flutter DURING acceleration?
  21. hey guys just about to start the audio/ video set up in my ba. have amps etc on order, but thought id start with the sub. tried the jbl 8" in the factory location, but it didnt make that much difference, so have decided to do it properly.... bought a sony xplod 15" sub- 450wrms. bought a custom moulded fibreglass box for the side of the boot off ebay last year- in grey carpet to match the boot carpet. thought just for $hits and giggles id run the big speaker wire over to the factory amp and ive got to say im a bit surprise at how much it pumps. im led to believe the factory amp runs 70wrms and it realy gets the big 15 moving- and ill be running it from a 600wrms monoblock! something tells me ill have the gains down pretty low... anyway- you boys with the premo sound- dont just discount the factory amp- get a big sub behind it- at least 12"- in a good box, replace all speakers with aftermarket ones- 6.5" splits work well- spray some sound deadener on the inside of the door skins in the front- and you have a not bad sounding system, especially if you dont want to spend much coin. enjoy!
  22. because im using 2 sets of splits in the front= 4 speakers front + 2 speakers rear. having said that, I may be able to load 2 channels to 2 ohms and use the other 2 in 4ohm mode for rears.
  23. no one else? well ill pop some photos up soon- im just about to start one in my t. not sure of the design, but ill be installing: sony xplode 450wrms 15" sub in custom box 2 sets of 85wrms 6.5" splits in each door 1 set of 65wrms splits in rear parcel shelf response 600wrms monoblock amp (1000wrms if I load it to 1 ohm!) response 4 x 135wrms amp for front splits clarion amp for rear splits 1 farad capacitor dvd/ cd player rgb converter to play dvd on premium screen built in headrest moniters im not sure if im gonna go the whole custom boot install like the ef or go stealth.
