  2. white Fg F6 plates FPV09H. dont think it was modded but looked clean and schmick
  3. looking nice FF. jealous you got the white :f*ckyou: hahahah what % tint have you got looks clean?
  4. smoked an Bogan special in the wet yesterday....didnt spot a xr but thought was worth a gloat haha
  5. maybe should see if you can get your hands on a gs ute with a ZF to compare
  6. I Love the GS ute! how you were saying way back the manual ute was sh*t compared to the ZF sedan, I heard that the exhaust systems on the utes bring the power down for some reason and the sedans are actually pulling more power and they great thing is they run real rich so with just a tune my mate went from 268rwkw to 374rkw! and its a beast to drive...if only the GT cam out in a ute but I think its the same engine just tuned more? I could be wrong
  7. mans just trying to get some help hahaha. I do agree with jetsnot though. If I was buying the GS I would have preferred the new supercharged one :D I think the old one was 302 and new is 315(gs) 335(gt)

    ute register

    hi guys from randwick sydney. Have a 2011 fg xr6t manual came with all the mod cons from ford lux pack ect only things I have changed is removed the tub to put on a alloy tray ( dont need the ute now as heading to the mines and will probably sell it :( )and put an xr8 bonnet on it Should have put a stage 2 kit in for less then it cost to get the tray put on!
  9. boat is 24ft and trailer is braked. thanks for all the advice but think I will do the upgrade......might sell the missis car and buy another xr6t sedan though
  10. yeah I think t could pull but on a wet boat ramp pulling it out I would spin and probably go in
  11. are there heaps of guys on here in the mines? sh*t should have asked if anyone on here can get me a job first haha took me like 3 months then realised a family friend works for downer edi running the rigging crews so he has put me on as his TA so im cheering.....just have to pa for my own flights to brissy but that's all good
  12. that's what I thought. for now im just pulling around a little 5.45m alloy quintrex hahaha f*ck guess a 4WD it is :(
  13. hey am looking at getting a new boat, its probably going to be bigger like 7m long not to sure on weight but I have noticed everyone who has got these sized boats are using 4WD and like turbo diesels. I know the xr6t hauls arse and can tow loads like trailers and everything but not to sure if it will be safe or good at pulling it out of the water and what not Plus going to the mines up in QLD so might be selling my ute anyways considering I just got it :( Any help or buyers haha PS I have attached one of the boats im looking at, they had a pic of the boat getting out of the water with the 4x4 rand rover thingy?
  14. yeah the vxr comes with the bo modal exhausts. sh*t wheels and colour though.
  15. I've rolled about 3500kms now and average 15.8......I try to keep it down but then I just keep planting my foot sometimes and f*ck it up haha waiting for a big highway drive so I can maybe get it back down to 15 or less or I could just reset it but doesnt bother me. car was meant for fun not trying to see how low I can get my L/km just a quick question. will gettin a tune and new injectors give more power and bring down the fuel consumption if you drive normal? that's what I have heard anyways
  16. cheers..... if you look close though at the bonnet you can notice it compared to the other gaps.

    new bonnet

    From the album: the new ute

  19. just thought I would add a photo of mine I just put on. Got it from Bogan special and it fits pretty god everywhere except only problem is that the gaps between the left and right guards and bonnet is a little bit bigger the factory bonnet but not noticeable. very happy with it though
  20. how come utes dont have sunglass holders?
  21. wouldn't that be what runs the programming for it? might not be the gears as it trips itself at a certain speed?
  22. sounds broken to me mate. probably ecu problems
  23. www.ozzytyres.com.au having a 40% sale if you buy online they have some good sets and even show you what wheels will fit your car
  24. would work well if you have an auto, manuals you would have to leave it out of gear all the time if your starting up from outside the car which ssuuuccckkkssss
