  1. Thanks man, love the vid Would love to see kyle's video too if you can mate
  2. Pictures look the goods, thanks for the googley eyes mate haha. Didn't even realise you'd taken a picture of my rear windscreen haha. As said before, thanks again for the cruise guys. We've definitely gotta organise another one sometime soon.
  3. 17 years old - BFII F6 Typhoon - 500rwhp. At 19, Now got an FG turbo sedan, built motor, GT3582R turbo, 385rwkw on around 14 psi (that comes on extremely sloooowwww).
  4. Excited for the pics and videos to go up
  5. Yeah mate, that was real upsetting. But what do ya do aye, came out only needing a bit of an alignment (from what I can tell) so I can live with that. Apart from a sh*t little moment that made us stop for a few minutes, last night was awesome. Was great finally being out with guys who actually had cars like me, and knew cars like me, and most of all, loved their falcons. Cheers for the great night guys, I'll definitely be on the next one.
  6. Is the cruise tomorrow? I'm confused, is it organised or? haha
  7. Yeah. I'm loving it, but I don't know if I'll want more. I've always been a little showy. I can't say im into a black roof, or a random highlighter colour set of rims, but I definitely do like to have something that stands out a bit. But we'll see how it goes. Number plate is now gonna have to wait a little bit, as im having Simon give it a good look over and a retune. Boost is weak, slowly comes on around 10psi and doesn't come to 15psi till I'm up at 5-6K. And its on 95. So its really slow and upsetting at the moment. So providing everything is all good and well I'd imagine we'll put it up around 17psi on 98, have it tuned a little different, and I'll be easily at 400rwkw I'd say. But I dont wanna stress the gearbox. So we'll sort out what I can get out of it without killing it I guess.
  8. Dan wants me to do the roof black too, and I just don't like it..... At all. I've got a custom kit coming (similar to the gs kit) and stuff so I'll chuck that on, see how it goes. If I don't like it I'll just get rid of it. To me white always seemed just so plain. But the subtle sleeper kind of look is really growing on me.
  9. Got a big roll cheap, I plan to get rid of it and plastidip it soon. I'm sure it will turn out way better haha. Personally think that one difference makes the car look so much better. Really happy with the look.
  10. Quick update, Vinyl wrapped the front today (pretty average job, but looks good providing you aren't right up close haha)
  11. I'm keen mate, seem to always bloody miss these things. But give me a date, time and place and I'll be there!
  12. Sounds like it was badly mistreated. Glad to hear someone is going to be taking more care of it. I have to say though, I'd hope you picked it up pretty cheap...
  13. Regardless, that's still a pretty impressive figure. Good on ya mate
  14. that's really impressive on that setup mate, congrats.
  15. Yeah I had a few number plates in mind. DVOURUR8, MBARASU, handful of others, don't wanna give too many ideas away haha
  16. Sorry guys, GT3582R Yeah I hope so too steve, I'm sure I'll be on the next one. Well I'd eventually like to hit around 450rwkw on 98. The will be hard for me though as for that I'll need to rebuild the gearbox. And that will come in due time. As for mods done quickly, hoping to have a Turbo side intake done and a retune on 98 with the boost up a bit, hopefully hitting around 420-430rwkw.
  17. Pictures look terrible, were taken with my iPhone. Car looks so much better in person.
  18. Hey guys, Recently acquired this bad boy. I'm calling her "HEXR6T" (body modifications/additions and number plate all on the way). Car is 2008 FG XR6T with premium tech pack (premium sound/leather/all the extras). Car had all mods done over in Sydney over at BTA Motorsport (big ups to Ali and the boys). Car is currently running around 360rwkw on a really soft tune (14psi on 95) (had to get it to perth from the country and can't get 98 everywhere). On 98 its about 385rwkw. Believe the car has huge potential. Car has done 63,000 (5,000kms on all mods) Current Mods: Rebuilt Motor Mahle Forged Pistons Manley H Beam Conrods Main bearings Cometic head gasket payen VRS gaskets 9mm Atomic Flex Plate GT35 Turbo New Waste gate solenoid and actuator Plazmaman 1000hp Intercooler Plazmaman Intake ID1000 Injectors Exhaust Walbro internal fuel pump Process West External fuel pump and surge tank Valve Springs Custom Engine Cooler Custom ZF Transmission Cooler Tune to 14 psi on 95 (currently) Flutter BOV 20" Dark Argent Copies - 245 all round - Achilles ATR Sport. Upgraded suspension Cobalt triple gauges (trans temp/oil pressure/boost) Car drives fantastic, only it feels like its hungry for more. When I give it stick, its like it wants to keep going and going but it can't, as though its restricted. I'm imagining this may be to do with the tune/the fact its on 95. Possibly thinking the fuel pump, or maybe the fact I may soon need a turbo side intake may have something to do with it but unsure. Will be taking it to Simon at Xtreme very soon though. New pics will come soon once I've got everything done I want on it Future Mods: Turbo side intake Rebuild ZF E85 Setup. Wind up the boost. Lenso D1R's, 18" 8.5 front (245), 9.5 rears (275) with Nitto Invo's.
  19. Turned out to be the oil pressure switch... Was on the right track with thinking it was some sort of oil problem. Cheers for the help guys.
  20. Not sure how much mate, had it done at a dealer and they never mentioned anything about it.
  21. Hey guys, About 2 months ago I had some issues starting the car. Starter motor and battery did their job fine, it seemed as though there was a different issue. As it started to get worse, it was like the engine would start turning over then switch straight off. As its progressing its getting worse, and sometimes it starts fine, and sometimes now it will turn on, and the engine and car will shake for about 3 seconds and then turn off. I thought possibly it could be the oil pump or oil pump gears not circulating the oil properly, so its trying to turn on but can't properly cause the lack of oil. The other day as I was driving, mainly was it was at a low speed, the engine oil light was coming off and on, and I've only had it serviced with new oil 2000kms ago, making me think even moreso that that is the issue... Would it be safe to assume I'm on the right track? Any advice would rock. Cheers
  22. Yeah D1R's look just as good, if not better on the B series falcons.
  23. I'll definitely be on the next one! Missed too many, and unfortunately haven't got to meet or get to know many of you guys which is a real shame. Was always trying to come along to one back when I had my BFII F6. But I'll be on the next one for sure
  24. Don't think I'll be able to make it that weekend unfortunately. Wont be able to show you the look I ended up going with Steve!
  25. That is an absolutely amazing looking GS. I love it. I have actually considered going a similar sort of look. I'm tryna figure out what I want to do. I'm very much a guy who wants his car to look different, and stand out. Not cause its gross, but cause its a little bit more and a little bit eye catching.
