  1. Yes they actually come with a -10% loss through the drive train and make 357.5rwkw from factory. Lucky bastards.
  2. I seriously doubt if someone wanted a track car that they would buy a Expensive Daewoo or ford at all haha. High powered bricks are more famed for powersliding a corner than getting round it fast. I'd buy an R34 GT-R if I wanted a track car, but I'd miss the fun of my overpowered brick so much!
  3. I didn't see it say rwkw anywhere? The GTS is rated at 325 flywheel kw from factory, he is wondering why there is such a big loss at the rear wheels compared to a F6 310. Explain to him that he'll need a supercharger and/or stroker kit to keep up with a ford turbo 6 (modified of course)
  4. Got my HID kits from eBay this morning overnight postage Installed them both today, Hi/Los and Foggies, already have all the parker/interior lights. Looks great, quality seems pretty good, excellent customer service, can't say much for how long they last yet but will update in time. Now just need to adjust tomorrow so I don't do any serious long term damage to the eyes of passing motorists.
  5. "Street legal? Of course, officer!"
  6. Haters gonna hate I joke , I joke. Congrats on finishing your apprenticeship though, must feel good.
  7. 900/week is pretty standard/average wage for a fully qualified sparky. Few more qualifications (Level 2 etc.) and you could land a job that pays a fair bit more than that. Hell, Integral 3rd year apprentices get 25/hour, nearly the base tradesman rate at my employment. Makes me wish I went through that massive process to apply for an apprenticeship there. Doh.
  8. Sweet, thanks guys. It's not that much money to blow, so I'll give these ones a go and let you all know. If they are $@#% I'll buy the better quality ones you use, Keith.
  9. What kit have you used? On eBay as well? The kits offered from the contact that a lot of the guys in this thread have purchased from are actually cheaper than that. Only looking at these as I wanted to play around with them this long weekend, with overnight postage.
  10. Make that 2 I'm still a 3rd year sparky. Probably earned nearly double my base salary last year though with overtime.
  11. Hahaha yeah seen your one was watching it from another car on the day. I'll be in mine next powercruise day at the creek, will have to give you a run!
  12. Has anyone used mg-ledsupplies on ebay for their HID kits? I will be ordering my H4 and H11 kits overnight postage tonight if I don't hear anything bad from here. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270889737196#ht_9855wt_1065 Anyone that could let me know I would greatly appreciate.
  13. Haha is this someone on here? Purposely destroying their ZF trans
  14. I got my 2010 FG with 5000kms on it and $15k worth of extras (maxxed out small turbo, sound system, wheels) for $33,500. The deals do come around
  15. Not for the parker lights. Numberplate / footwell / interior.
  16. Aw man the HID contact we use here hasn't emailed me back :( I wanted them by the long weekend so I had some time to muck around with them. Anyone know if any of the sellers on ebay do overnight postage or anything? to Blue Mountains, Sydney I'm wanting the H4 kit and H11 kit. (Hi/Lo & Fog)
  17. In other words, if you have boobs they won't charge
  18. What was the verdict mate? Looking at getting some for my FG, but don't want to waste my money on a product with faults.
  19. Thanks Mate. 265 Semi's on the back , 245 street tyres on front (8.5 inch front) That's how I bought it not long ago, going to change the rears over to some 275-285 street tyres and save the semi's for strip.
  20. Count me in for any weekends past may 7th Keen to meet some of the NSW crew!
  21. What kind of power do they need to put to the road? Are you looking for as much traction as possible?
  22. T10* . Well spotted, my mistake. I have 5smd ones but would still like brighter. Might try some of those 48 smd ones.
  23. Mine has 18" lenso D1R rims on, 9.5 inch rear with 265 tyre. Go to my profile and look for thread I started on new car for pics.
