  1. Have gone & done it!... The stripes are on, after much toing & froing... Re: whether to go with the new GT type or these, which are same as Shelby Mustang!.... Anyhow whatcha think?
  2. just leave the keys on the front tyre of the Pursuit and one of us will get it ... :D mate I was looking forward to a sprint with you ... show you the unichip logo on my rear screen :lol: next time Charlie ... think there will be more "product/dyno" days ... Woulda been great, Rob!.... Going the full Herrod exhaust shortly, so will get before & after figures from them. However the way different dynos give different readings, this won't be a fair indication to the figures you guys pull. Anyhow WILL catch up on the next on!! Have a great day guys
  3. You guys are gunna kill me!... I'm off to Qld on the 11th-13th ( work)... Sorry, bout this! (but can't avoid).. I hear Rods still going though ( Pursuit) so still have a 290 Boss there! My Apologies to all!... Regards Charlie

    MissXR, Not worth wasting your anger on!... Two totally jealous losers methinks! And if it wasn't such a top looking ute, I'm sure they wouldn't have second glanced you!

    XRT Utes

    Hi Rob!... A couple of mine being built!
  7. Dave... Hope you had a great one? ( and birthday! lol)... keep that baby ( XRT) boogieing!... Catchya soon, And many happy returns... Charlie!
  8. Pursuit 7300 ks ( 5 weeks old today) XR6T sedan 7100 ks ( Bought Dec 20th ) And both , So far magnificent!... Not ONE of the "reported" faults with the turbo!
  9. My 2 final deciders with purchasing the Pursuit over the XR8 were: 1/. The resale value of a build numbered FPV vehicle over a "mass produced" product. 2/. I Just KNEW I'd regret buying an XR8 ( regardless of how impressive it was!).. If there was a more powerful, higher up the range ute available!.. A bit like Having the prawns When you know there's crayfish on the menu!lol
  10. I think you'll find there is a "clause" Re: normal wear & tear on brakes?.. No way are Pads covered!... And rotors Only if there is a manufacturing defect!
  11. Only my opinion, Simon... But I'm leaning towards the white! I saw a white pursuit out there while I was waiting on mine, And left me speechless!.. It was really clean , low & sleek, Yet menacing looking!.. Plus I think the GT in white will be one outta the box?.. I don't think there'll be too many on the road? Decided to go the stripes on mine!, Got my sign guy coming on tuesday to measure up. regards Charlie
  12. vik351... You DO realise the punishment for premeditated defilement to works of revered beauty, is amputation of the offending hand & 50 lashes with the cat o ninetails?
  13. Hi Simon... I bet you left there tripping over your tongue?:licklips:. .. Real Drool stuff behind them there FPV gates!! Have you finally picked a colour yet? The time your taking It'll be arriving in primer & you'll be painting the GT yaself? :lol:
  14. Sorry guys was logged in as my daughter in that last post !! ( gunna kill her! lol)
  15. Brendan, Only just got the chance to finally download & watch... MAATE... That is just Awesome!!... Top effort, Now I know why you were risking life & limb squatting on the side of the highway!.. Brilliant stuff!
  16. Have a great one, Daz!!!....
  17. The mesh in the intercooler slot doesn't look half bad either! Guy driving looks a bit of a "stiff" though?
  18. Thanks guys for a brilliant day! ( sorry I couldn't do the return leg, but had appointment at 5.30 back in melb).. The sight of all those HORN cars in a line down Princess freeway will be in my memory for years!.. The open mouth look on some of the commie drivers was also a sight to behold! Professionally organised! Thanks Brendan... And what a "quaint" place Walhalla is! Great to meet you all!... Regards Charlie
  19. Just sold my "beast"... Buell X1 Lightning... Gun metal grey ... All you guys are gunna say.. Harley sh*t?... MAATE.. It weighed 180 kgs & 115 hp ( with the air intake mod , exhaust & chip)...went around corners like it was on rails, stopped quicker than most bikes I've ridden... & sheer grunt...... Whooo!... ( not to mention the note!!)... Been in bikes "forever" Late 70's had a Vincent HRD Black Shadow in An Egli frame.( On the road as a daily.. "Get this apprentice to work bike").. Heaps of Triumphs, BSA's, AJ's... One of the best, though was A Genuine Ariel red hunter 500 .. Which I swapped for a bsa 125 bantam + the guy gave me $20, as well as the bantam!... Talk about rocks in my head! Most of my bikes ( the AJS's, Matches, B33 beezas, Even the Red Hunter) were paddock bikes...No lights, guards etc... NOWDAYS!.. The money some would command is incredible?... Anyhow , this IS XR6Turbo forums... And I'll bore you senseless once we touch on bikes! lol
  20. Bloody brake dust on these rims?.... ( someones been giving it a hiding)... Hey Mondie.... Don't forget... YOU get a drive
  21. So... Are we all clean & polished?... ( sh*t my arms sore)
  22. Naturally!! Got to educate these hair dryer guys, that N/A V8 cubes are STILL king! No offence guys!!
  23. And suggest we all take it easy near & on the ring Rd?... Cops are ropable over the crash in Ardeer, just off the ring rd, this morn ... WRX 150kph in a 60 .. 2 dead... Absolute disintergration!
  24. Weather forecast a little ordinary?... Not to worry!... Should be a top day anyhow... Looking forward to putting faces to names ( signatures) Cya at Western ring road at 9.0!
  25. Well it's nearly.... "Drivers start your engines" ! 3 sleeps to go.. Looks like I have a passenger!.. My Daughter got on & read what was going on... Then promptly informed me that it all sounds "MAD" ( anyone know if that means good or?..) And that She is coming!.. What is the latest count?... Anyone know?
