looks like ill be forking more money out sooner rather then later haha
-
yeah it would be the most flexible of them all.. not sure im a fan of how easily you see in the video that he pulls it off the windows and trims so easily... would still be cool to find out what someone who has/will done it thinks of it

hey guys just picked up my Rapid V2.0 from chris. looks the business and cant wait to install. I hear from a few people should be alright to put on and not tune as I am going to put them on then gather up injectors, hi flow cat and then get them to install the cat and injectors and tune it. should this be ok? also im not t sure about a flash tune and getting a xcal and tuning it...is a flash tune where you only have one tune on the factory comp and getting a xcal means you can have up to three? cheers

^^^^agreed
-
much much cheaper then a respray. even to just just change the colour apart from matt colours...unreal haha
-
vinyl is also removable. wont come of as easily but means it will last longer probably
-
yeah exactly...and if its so cheap and good why is everyone talking about it ad not doing it. check out this xr8 wrap http://carbonfibrevinylwrap.net.au/matte-black/xr8-matte-black

How To Block The Fg Xr6T Standard Bov
lrmcdowell replied to Vylnt79's topic in Blow Off Valve Workshop
I only have it blocked with everything standard except for the silencer intake replaced with a 4inch and centre muffler removed. I like it...its not overly loud and a nice high short tutut, I think once I pick up my rapid V2.0 it will be a louder one so will have to put it back on I think...that would sh*t me -
How To Block The Fg Xr6T Standard Bov
lrmcdowell replied to Vylnt79's topic in Blow Off Valve Workshop
vented? so you didnt block it off you just added a little oil filter to it for the BOV affect? -
im all for the matt black I want to do mine and get dark tints but not to sure how to go with wheels with the alloy tray and chromed ladder racks. maybe a black rim? should have kept the tub haha. that fg looks mint with the orange rims!
-
yeah I guess. much more practical bonnet then the xr8 one so you would get lower engine temps. I spent 400 on a OEM steel bonnet and it fits perfectly so im happy. I think these ones go for 1200
-
this works. bit slow and sh*tty but hopefully they develop it a bit more so it works quicker and better what do you think?
-
expensive though
-
was down in adelaide for work last week and saw a black fg turbo. had an exhaust and wheels. looked and sounded nice...Well done radelaide loved henleys beach good little spot
-
well theres your problem.. you will know when you get back cause your car will have a bad smell of funk in it...enjoy your weekend anyways bud
-
bad luck henz what a horrible start for the long weekend. should probably check for semen...every crime scene as it these days haha
-
got my ute done today just straight pipes. love it
-
got it done. took them an hour....love it to bits. didnt think it sounded to bad fresh so cant wait for it to soot up a bit like you all have said and it will sound even better. nice burbble and sounds good when about 2000rpm but not floored just driving normal. so might help with the fuel consumption now haha
-
yeah castle hill is a bit far. place near me said $150 to replace so could be the go...cant wait just need time to drop it off
-
want a new ranger? F**k them and just drive the ute through the shop window and into all there cars hitting everything. you have insurance im sure and know your premiums will go up but they dont consider how many cars you hit haha. will be a huge night mare for ford to fix and you have to try and make it look like an accident
-
and would you need a tune with a hi flow cat replacement? or should be fine
-
can anyone reccomend someone in sydney who would do these apart from hi tech mufflers. seems funny they want 300 for a centre muffler replacement but only 1200 for a whole cat back system
-
I got quoted for $300 from hitech mufflers and they wrote back if your going to spend 300 why not spend $1200 and replace the whole exhaust haha big difference. sounds cheap though has anyone heard or gotten a hi tech muffler?

Need Help Deciding: Wheels Or Full Exhaust W/ No Tune
lrmcdowell replied to Vitamin D's topic in General Car Talk
get wheels, remove center muffler(if your after sound) injectors and tune. I think you could do that for 4g -
