Thanks for the update Rokafellqeinstien. I have been trying to track this thread down for a week now and couldn't remember where it was located. Checked my unread content today and whalaa. Glad to hear that it is resolved now. I will keep this in mind for future.

Bomber, this mate of yours, I am assuming that he has a XR6T.

For those with bf3 premium edition, you can actually download bf4 beta. I got it on tuesday and not bad at all. It is a lot harder than bf3. It is going to take a lot getting use to.

That is because the binding at the bottom of the strap came loose and was completely off the binding. I kept putting it in and it kept coming out and then spining. I have said this before and I will say it again. It all depends on your relationship with your dealer. If you take it easy and relax and talk to them like a mate, then all is good. If you go in demanding things to be fixed, good luck. I simply told Adrian at Seaview ford, that the leather strap keeps coming loose and spining. I asked if they could have a look and see if this is normal. They replaced the whole gear level including the leather at the bottom that conceals the gearbox. So effectively both leather bits were replaced.

Getting whole Gear lever assembly replaced under warrnaty for my Manual FG Xr6T. Thought they would only replace leather strap at top of gear shifter, but No they had to replace the whole lot. I am smilling from ear to ear and not complaining.

Thanks Paul. Portuguese?

^^^^ knowing the locations and having the right equipment, EG Camera and lighting...... Awesome shots of the car. Wouldn't mind finding out what touch up software Paul Battista uses.

Steve, looks like you were strugling to keep up with Boganspeed....

Would that surge tank and pump work for an FG?

Turbotrana, I think he ordered his camera fro the original site posted originally and not from massdrop. I am annoyed at the lack of communication from massdrop.com, but then again at that price.... At least the cameras have made it to their fulfillment centre. Have edited this post as I logged onto the massdrop website and my transaction details have been updated. The camera apparently has been shipped and they even provide a UPS tracking number. The camera is on its way.

Time and time again we will read about the inline oil filter for the turbo. I understand that the car has been moded, but how much of the modding we do to our engines directly effects the inline filter? I really feel for you mate, cause if I was in your situation, I would not be able to afford a new turbo. Ford should be held accountable in some way or form for this specific issue. We should be able to report this ongoing issue back to them. :(

so was it only 2 cars for the run down south? If so, ouch.... I thought more people would show up.

I hope you guys have a safe trip and all goes well. Hopefully no booboos happen.

Fark me, what did you claim back on the tax return so I can do the same thing? PM me if you have to....

Are there any lpg tuned T's in Perth yet?

Any update on this?

I put my bets on traction control being that you have a manual. If I use the launch control for 1st and launch the car pretty hard, when I change to 2nd, it's like the car is loosing power, but it is DSC preventing the wheels from spining. it has only happened to me twice and I don't like launching the car at all, so it hasn't happened again. Could it also be a faulty sensor at the rear for the DSC? If there is such a thing?

Steve, where are you getting all these goodies from.. I am getting sad with the amout of sweet stuff you are putting on your ride. Those wheels look smicko. I am definately looking at getting replacement rotors and brakes at some stage, but a 2k tag for the Brembo's ain't gonna happen any time soon. I recently got the DBA T2 rotors for my wife's car and they work a treat. Now I need to find an excuse to get the t3 rotos for mine.

^ +1. I am in the same situation. I have already bought the venon cat through the group buy on the other forum and it has been sitting in the garage for months now, waiting for the tune to be done. Hopefully at the end of october I will have the final payment to get the tune done through MT.

Just keep in mind that if you order the power magic pro, it means you have a spare camera holder that comes with the camera, you can use this to place the camera at the back of the car, if you do not reverse in. It does however mean that each time you park and you don't reverse in, you have to take the camera out of the front holder and put the camera at the back of the car in the other holder. Anyone else order through the massdrop site? If so, have you received any notification that it has been shipped?

I suspect that they want the bigger touch screen?

I can't agree more. I am more worried about the cattle at the shopping centres than anything else. you have no idea how banged up our ford focus is because of inconciderate and disrespectful cattle out there. someone banged the car up from the rear bumper up to the rear door and left white paint all along the car. Then drove off before we got back. Not happening to my car as I always try and reverse into the parking spot. This way the dash cam has a better chance of getting them on screen.

Thanks for that. These guys in Perth have them for $49.00 http://www.radarsdirect.com.au/products-page/car-dash-cameras/dash-cam-accessories/power-magic-pro-blackvue/

it is a pitty that the massdrop site does not give the option to get the power mate, otherwise I would get it as well. Where did you guys get your power mate from?

Or you could get a 3000va like the one I have and run it all night....
