  1. Just fitted 2 new tyres on the rear! Talk about tight squeeze! my offsets mustn't be what I was told
  2. No pics or vids unforunately... Today changed radius bushes and rear link pins. Seems like a big waste of money as both we're fine (pedders told me they were shagged and needed changing)
  3. First powerskid in the car cause she's getting 2 new tyres on Tuesday!
  4. Yep! Blocked mine off for sh*ts! Don't mind the flutter but will go back to vented soon

    A good half a dozen running lpg and up to 300rwkw. Can be done! If you're in Melbourne Pitlane are great to go see about it!
  6. Does anyone have a tune from a red xr6t, want to put it in my car cause we all know red cars go faster
  7. It's definitely no wrx, that's for sure lol
  8. Anyone interested in 2 xr17's with just legal tread for about $100-$150? Im looking at buying a set off a guy but only want 2
  9. ^^ Seriously? I've heard turbo's with full 3.5" exhausts quieter than mine and at low revs mine is just as loud as my old mans 5.4 GT with extractor back exhaust (doesn't sound as good but is as loud)
  10. I think they're pretty similar. If you don't want loud then make sure you replace the muffler with hotdog. Straight pipe loud
  11. Andy sells double sided tape to stick these on
  12. I wouldn't pay 23k. I paid $20k for an 08 (sedan) with 78,000
  13. I think there was a couple on Facebook my long ago, can't remember how much though
  14. Meth injection kit? Dunno a real lot about them but heard they're alright for getting temps down
  15. I think you can either buy a BA and spend money over time fixing things that break or save a bit more and at least go for a BF. The internals will be fine for 300 at the fly but both the manual and auto boxes are much better than in the BA But as J@ said even the BF is getting old now but if that's all you can afford then buy within your limits
  16. Bit of a thread mine lol How so Ratter? Going to be running FG with 3.5" dump, 100cell cat and rear muffler delete going for 310rwkw on 98 and hopefully around to 340 on eflex and I'll have 90,000kms at tune time
  17. My bearings should be right because with the car jacked up I tried to shake the wheels and nothing! Will be trying the next few things on tuesday so touch wood!
  18. I'm going away friday morning but given I'll finish assessments for the semster as of tonight anyone keen for a bit of a cruise on thursday night? Maybe just for an hour or so, do a few photo's etc?
  19. Haha yea mate well I might try get out with mcinnes on thursday night but no plans as of yet, I'll post in ACT thread if we go. See in my car I have cut open airbox, K n N filter and rear muffler delete for straight pipe on stock tune Mcinnes has Plaz turbo side intake, 3.5" turbo back di filippo exhaust and 320rwkw. at idle mines louder, pick up to 2000rpm mines still louder in the exhaust while his is sucking quite a bit and at WOT you an just hear a bit on induction and turbo spool but his is really loud spool and induction (sounds awesome) I think for what you're after power wise just cut the intake open at the bottom and a put a K n N, then just do the cat and delete rear muffler and replace with a hotdog. I think the straight pipe would be too loud if your mrs is gonna complain and you'll pick up a little bit of sound from the cat
  20. Double check that the ICC is pushed in all the way back and that none of the pins on the plug (at the back) are bent or out of place. Other thing is to check that all the plugs in the bottom of the ICC (I think theres 4 from memory) are plugged in. Happened to me before in my BA
  21. Much of muchness really. Some say their good value, others won't touch them. Cop cars all get flogged but most private cars get a good thrash every now and then too so its too hard to know. As boost69 said if you can find one with decent kms and its in good condition then that's all you can really check for
  22. If I remember correctly stock afr's are up around 14? Yea well that's what I'm thinking. I have a servo with 98 literally across the road for me so running the tank almost empty isn't hard.
  23. I like the CHR's better. Get them in silver and just change colour using plastidip when you're bored! Pretty sure there was a Black typhoon that had the CH's, then the CHR's (in black though) same sizes. Have a search through the wheel threads and you'll find him
  24. I found with my rear muffler removal that most of the sound is below 2500 revs. At WOT its all intake and turbo spook. Not sure if using a hotdog would be any different but I'd imagine its the same just quieter
