  1. thanks ducati. yeah I might take you up on that dyno day, do u have date? price? I will check out the criuse meet section
  2. hey, Just a couple of quick questions 1. I got my car dyno'd a couple of day ago and it came at with 185.9rwkw(stock) just wanted to see who else has done it and what did they get? 2. At the dyno the guy said I had a "miss" in the car and I have told ford but I wondering if anyone as had one, and whats causing it. and should I tell ford how to fix it:) 3. (bit of a weird question but hey) Does anyone know how the DTE gets worked out? before my crash a full tank said 462 got it back and went up to 522 but lately it alwats says 482 :banghead: does anyone know how it is worked out?? thanks..

  4. when I got mt xr6t in december I had about 3 races in the first 2 days but when I finelly got it back about 4 weeks ago from a crash im to having troble pulling races all the holdens just seem to turn off somewhere at lights :lol: one day I will have more
  5. yeah mate sounds good I don't think purple and black go bad with each other anyway
  6. when I took mine in for service the service guy knew exactly what I was on about (hints he gets it alot) and said it was normal for a performance car ... but I will just keep on tell them and see what happens
  7. yeah I have the same problem the phantom color is hard enough to keep clean at the best of times so im going to but them on at the next service:)
  8. well done mate, have fun with it
  9. before I crashed my car I was averaging 14 to 14.5 and the panel beater got his mate in to reset the ECU computer when it was fixed and now I am getting 13 to 13.5 my car has got 4000kms on it if I was you go to another ford dealer and get it reset again or get some with the right computer to fo it.
  10. no that's my brothers car and we have had some good drags yeah both front airbags went off but I don't remember hitting them(bloody seltbelts:))
  11. Very, very nice. Hmm, already got a slap on the head when I saw the 'colour coded' head....."No, don't get any ideas".....lol. Should count my lucky stars she's letting me supercharge the N/A.
  12. I was coming back from the coast and a bloody volvo driver turned in front of me at a set of lights and I t-boned her (her fault of course ) and I will look after her this time

  16. JB, yeah I was hoping to see someone who has done it, thanks mate if ya can track it down..
  17. heres the second and I have to do the first one again sorry
  18. as you maybe know I crashed my car a while ago and the panel beater ask if I wanted the rocket cover to be painted the same colour of the car as it has to be replaced. what do you guys think????????? I don't know what to do here are two pics of the colour (well I tryed my best with paint brush ) thanks don't be scared to say what u think:) this is the first pic
  19. yeah mate the two front ones did I heard they are about $1000 each to fix think nothing of it mate all I mean is everyone I know says it:) but your right it does look worse then 50 km, I done well didn't I:) cool thanks mate I will have a look, so what your saying is that the pwr is $895 and the one I had is $1400? sorry I can be a bit slow:)
  20. bet u that u can't guess what I voted :lol:
  21. yeah thanks guys for your support, first, about the insurance, they havent seen it yet cause it just got taken to the panel shop on monday, but my mate the panel beater said its maybe its about 15-20k's damage and since its a $50000 car it might not be enough. but we will see what happens well on the drivers side it about 10mm and on the passengers its -5mm its over lapping and the door won't open u don't know how many times I get asked that question but since it was christmas eve (double demiret) I think I was 50 maybe 60. I couldn't tell I was drinking a beer :lol: kidding. yep this it where the fun starts since I know the guy I have already asked him for a few things and I will just pay the differents between them maybe 1. a new bigger chome intercooler 2. the v8 bonnet( but he said he thinks the v8 bonnet is $1900 and the xr6 is $300 so I don't no about that one 3. a new cold air intake 4. I will try and head light protectors and say they were on the car any thing else you guys think??????? yeah I was thinking about that but it won't match the back on the car :lol: doesn't even look like its being in a crash but I don't think they are going to fix it... it was a 1820 model :lol: I will take some pics when it done and we can play spot the different
