  1. James I get a employee discount at Holden, lot cheaper than an xr6 turbo
  2. Thanks fellas, I'm guessing they would be 2008 models? Being the first are they any worse than an 09/10?
  3. Is that speaking from experience shy? Question was aimed at people that have had a Fg for a few years, could comment on reliability. How is yours going pazzo had any issues? And mark too had any problems with the f6?
  4. It's not just the drive, it's the long term reliability issue.
  5. I can get a new ve ss forthr same price as a used g6e turbo, that's why it's a hard choice otherwise I would buy the ford
  6. Is there any common issues with these cars? Anything to look out for etc? My last ford was a ba mkii f6, and it was very unreliable, had a few issues with it. Tossing up between a g6e and ve ss, I'd like to get the ford but not sure after having so many issues with the f6.
  7. If its stock you won't have a problem, there may be a Fg file on the hptuners website? Last time I looked there was ba bf and Fg f6 tunes on there
  8. Sold it a couple of months ago, not sure what I want yet.
  9. That's 22k for both of us glouva, so cost me 11k. Will be getting a car when I get back
  10. We've done those places plus 8 nights in Hawaii at the end, just over a month all up. Trip cost around 12k, flights, hotels, transfers etc all paid for, and we brought about 10k spending money ( me and the missus)
  11. Plenty of good food, there is so much variety you can eat whatever you like. And fuel is cheap because they don't pay excessive taxes on it like we do. And to be honest who cares about healthy food, your on holiday? Had a jack Daniels BBQ steak and 6 beers tonight, why the f*ck not lol
  12. And the cars, omg. Cars are so cheap, so is fuel.
  13. The food here is incredible, so much variety. Not just maccas and etc everywhere like aus
  14. America is f*cking awesome. So far been to L.A, San Diego, Las Vegas, San Francisco and am currently in New York. Love it here, seems so much more relaxed than Australia, no one whinging all the time. Everyone I've met here has been really friendly too. And there is a lot of Aussies here freeze, it was 41 degrees in Vegas and dollar is at parity, why not?
  15. Suspension isn't the best mod, power is. It's why we all buy these cars. If you wanted a good handling car you wouldn't have bought the falcon in the first place. If suspension was the only mod you would do to your car, a VE would have been a better buy
  16. But they don't do emissions testing when they do a rwc?
  17. How is an intercooler / exhaust etc not rwc?
  18. Ford didn't charge me anything last time I went diagnostics wise, just labour to actualy fix the problem.
  19. I managed to get a roadworthy for my car, had full exhaust, cooler, plenum, airbox, injectors. The only thing he was worried about was the turbo being stock. And yes he had to take pictures
  20. Weights are cheap on eBay mika. Bought some last year used them about 3 times haha always too buggered after work
