  1. That was a great clip, perfect positioning of the Go-Pro.
  2. 2003 BA Mk1. 186k Km's, 292rwKW @ 12 psi, runs 12.9. About to add more mods, another bigger intercooler, better plumbing, it's 2nd auto service, and retune for 14 - 15psi and expect around 320rwKW. I hope it stays together! :D Done 2 sets of stock diff bushes (free under ext warr), and recently replaced control arm (control blade) bushes with SuperPro comp spec, and highly recommend them. More posts of high Km cars is nice to see!
  3. Found a similar thread man.. the outcome was handbrake bracket was loose or cable fell out of the bracket, all under the car. They reckon CAREFULLY try 1 - 2 clicks on the handbrake to see if it goes away.. if so, tighten the handbrake under the car, or see if it's loose. http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76800-knocking-sound/page__st__40 Mines moreso when turning left.. at any speed, even real slow. It's not my exhaust, and pretty sure it's not swaybar.
  4. Good thread, good read, and good discovery made.. I wonder if this is my noise.. it's actually coming from under my left foot in the foot well.. appears to happen moreso when turning left.. at any speed. Maybe swaybar, may one of these handbrake brackets.. had it on the hoist the other day at Jax, didn't appear to be exhaust or swaybar. Will see..
  5. Strongly advise against this, as you can damage the tabs. Admittedly I've had a couple of issues with the submersible line being too long, and pushin the cap up etc.. and have had to take the pump out a couple of times. I was using drivers, and being carefull, but the claw-lip on these tabs that hold on to the rib of the male fitting can be damaged easily, and the supply line can blow off; which is what happened to me last week. I had to replace the line with a new supply line: Just slide the fitting forward, then slide the tabs back, and the fitting will come off with ease. Mine is leaking, and people are saying there's a seal, but no pics. I fit the module into the tank, and put the black metal ring on top, 6 bolts. I don't have any rubber seal?
  6. does anyone make a cat section that fits to the factory dump aaand the twin 2.25" middle that is NOT a rip off?
  7. Getting my Speedflow line and Motorsport Connections inline filter fitted on Tuesday with valve springs.. Just read this whole thread and am so glad I decided to do this!
  8. Hi fella's, great reading. I have purchased some KING Superlows (KFFL-57 (NOT 57SL's, these are old AU coils, and end up being ULTRA lows for BA's..) and KFRL-68SSL) and short body Durashocks. Honestly, is there any need for camber kits? I have previously had an EA with Superlows (26SL and 27SL) all round, the car sat LEVEL, and had even wear across the face of the tread. As this is a different car, and geometry, I am getting mixed opinions on the camber kit.. Who has fitted the BA Super low part# above without camber kits..? What is the wear like? Would a wheel alignment afterwards be enough? EDIT, am running stock MkII alloys 17" 235 wide.. and am also getting the SuperPro short rear bumpstops... IS there a need for anything else?
  9. Cheers Brods and ozking, that's what I'm after. My BA MkI has 130k's and was I planning to go on the sub 300rwkw power route; full history, drives really well.
  10. To put it simply, what's the most number of k's you've seen on an XR6T prior to it's first tuning-involved mods... Eg flashing, flash and exhaust etc.
  11. Doing some thread mining on these wheels.. Anyone seen P1 Racing II's on a BA/BF? I know they're popular on Jap cars, but they're lightweight, and have suitable fitments. Can't find a pic anywhere fitted to a Falcon!
  12. I've had rough idle at the lights after giving it a squirt, car is stock (except intercooler), figured it was a fuel shortage just for the moment. Not worried though.
  13. Just got a reply from Turbosmart (even on a Sunday), Pic A is the current one, and comes with blanking plate for full plumb or full atmo. Sick.
  14. Which one does it look like? If I go order one right now, can I expect A or B to show up? Thanks.
