  1. Mattyb, What tyres are you running now? I'd consider going back to an 18 so I could find a semi slick tyre that'll fit. Benny
  2. I wonder how far apart they are going to be? Benny.
  3. Sounds like a good plan. You'll be much happier and your car a lot more consistant on warmer days. Benny
  4. I use the AP 5.1 and have done track days at Wakefield with no dramas. For $24 a bottle I thought it was cheap. There are better fluids out there but they will cost more again. If you want even better brake feel then go for braided lines. Benny
  5. I'm not sure there would be specific figure. Would depend highly on the tune, fuel, air temp etc. One of the tuners might be able to give a more detailed answer. Benny
  6. Can't go wrong with an FG I reckon. Just get one with some warranty incase it needs a few little bits fixed up, diff bushes etc. I love my auto and handles the extra power nicely. Benny
  7. Nice car in Red. Looking good. Benny
  8. No pinging for me just strong performance.
  9. Mine whistles like crazy after I got the Nizpro cooler and piping. I even took the intake pipe off the turbo to check the turbo was ok. I still run and oem filter too. Benny
  10. With the short time it takes to change injectors (1hr max) I'd put the oem ones back in and flash the standard tune in and go see Ford to fix, if the problem is still there. Benny
  11. Welcome to the club mate. Now you've just gotta start saving for the mods. Benny
  12. Sounds like a happy customer there. Suspension really does make a big difference to an XR's performance. Benny
  13. Nice selection of cars there. Great work. Benny
  14. Personally I don't think you need it as my car has had no issues on the street and track. Benny
  15. Injectors, Tune, Intercooler and hi flow cat will easily get you there. No problems with reliability either. Don't worry about the intake. Benny
  16. Hypxr6t, Do you have a dyno graph for us to see? Can you tell us what power the car made in standard from on that dyno? It does sound a little low but need to know what was the gain rather than the overall power figure. Benny
  17. Still oem filter in my car. Made the same power with the box lid lifted on the dyno.
  18. I don't have many issues with my drive line. Diff bush is the only one. Surely the drive line and gearbox can handle that slight increase of torque. Benny
  19. People come and go around here I guess as their tastes change. Not alot of people have been here since the early days. What about KEN 24T? I think that's his name. Benny
  20. The Pirelli P Zero I would say with my experience would be one of the best tyres you can fit for traction without going to a Semi Slick. Just make sure they are the P Zero top tyre and not the Nero etc. I feel your pain with trying to get the car off the line cleanly. It's very difficult with street tyres. Benny
  21. Doubt he will be there tomorrow but you can try. 6/79 Newton Rd Wetherill Park NSW 2164 (02) 9609 1101 Benny
  22. Sorry I don't have pics for you but Matt at Race Brakes Sydney would be a great guy to talk to. He should be able to help. Benny
  23. XYZ, What mods are you planning to get to that power level? What have you done so far? Benny
  24. I would bet that Ford doesn't believe they made a mistake not installing an LSD in FG I. The car is a performance touring vehicle that isn't designed for powering out of corners hard or dragging. I think they should have one mind you. Benny
  25. I 2nd that. Will fit straight on. Benny
