    Premium Brakes

    I didnt think it was possible to machine the premium rotors because of the grooves cut into them..... or maybe its cross drilled rotors im thinking of....

    Tramlining

    ive got 19's on my chariot and it doesnt tram at all. however, my xc with 18's trams savagely. and I mean savage. strange.......
  4. I think it was something organised by trevor himself, there was no official "ford caravan" thing there. still doesnt excuse not advertising it sufficiently though.... the only way I found out was a mate of mine was asked by trevor himself to enter his two gt cortina's. if he wasnt asked, I wouldnt have known about it either!
  5. I "think" its illegal to run different diameter wheels unless your car left that way from the factory. I think that's the case in the a.c.t anyway...... a mate had a cortina and he had 15's on the front and 14's on the back and im sure he got a defect notice issued to him. that was a while ago though.....
  6. sorry peoples - probably should have mentioned something.
  7. whoa nellie! is that possible? :lol:
  8. force it down towards the floor. it is extremely tight, but once it "frees", it will come off quite easily. you will be worried about the amount of pressure required to remove it, I thought I was going to bend my accellerator! it really needs a large amount of force. I just grabbed the accell pedal (the plastic bit) and pushed it downwards. dont touch the steel accellerator pedal shaft itself. no screwdrivers are necessary. see how you go.........
  9. can you post some pics? sorry, already delivered. if you were waiting on a gt, you wouldnt leave it hanging around a dealership either!!!
  10. we received from melbourne a white gt today with the blue stripes. personally it reminded me of the xc cobra. im still in 2 minds whether I like em or not. at the moment I sway towards the nay. btw, I have only seen 1 gt through with no stripes. and ive seen probably 4 go through so far.
  11. you dont have to buy them if you dont want them! im just supplying information! btw, auto is cheaper!
  12. yeah sorry peoples, manual kits are in stock (just) at melbourne, auto sets are on back order. unfortunately $390 sounds right. will get back to you about the mould badge bat.
  13. ms700 ... how did you figure out the torque loss?? dyno before and after.
  14. I checked ford melbourne today, and they are on back order. unfortunately you will just have to keep on checking with your local dealer. they may come in tomorrow, they may be 2 - 3 months. hope this helps.

    It's Here

    I think bdennis is right. im sure the same happens at the dealership I work at. once they go over their allocation, the fun begins..........
  16. there is a fella called Craig, but he is a phantom with roof racks. I never leave my car in civic, or anywhere for that matter, without keeping a real close eye on it. civic is full of real dodgy people. I know of a few break ins around the royal theatre.
  17. a mate of mine removed his centre muffler on his 800klm old auto sedan, gained power slightly, but lost torque! lots too, around 40nm! strange............. maybe it was too young?
  18. dont tell them what they are, just walk in and say "id like to order the following part number" and pay for it on the spot. see how you go. some one in sydney will take your money! :lol:
  19. go vortech, I bolted a vortech up after I siezed a powerdyne. my 2c worth.

    Opinions

    reminds me of hypercolour t shirts....... now they were cool....
  21. my dad's a taxi driver! he better not have a better work car than me! I wonder if anybody's had a tecnicolour yawn in the back seat yet?
  22. falchoon swing by work tomorrow, ill organise some touch up paint for you! nothing a good spray painter couldn't rub out.......
  23. $381.00 for manual $300.00 for auto. something like that anyway I posted exact prices somewhere earlier in this topic. I just put mine on, looks sensational. id post pics, but it looks exactly the same as the pedals on a gt! im sure someone else has posted pics before.
  24. all righty then! Part numbers! Manual pedal kit = BAT 2C541 A Auto pedal kit = BAT 2C541 B and if anybody asks where you got these numbers from, it wasnt me!!!!! :lol:
  25. I ALWAYS turn my car off in park. and therefore I ALWAYS start the car in park. And ive never had a problem. Why do you turn it off in neutral?
