    The Tuning Wars

    Got to get these episodes on DVD
  5. Count me in...
  6. Hello All The new Tornado got nailed on the head when the current ute traded in was only worth $26,500..Which means after 15mth I have lost $13,500 on it...After talking to the accountant I have decided to keep the old girl for the 3 yrs as intended and re-evaluate the situation in 12mths time... So all the phase II bits are back on and edit thrown in instead of unichip... Good results so far with 315 rwkw ..back on the dyno next week to see what this edit can achieve... All that is left to do now is put the cooler back on.. hopefully catch up soon on the next cruise or drag meet
  7. The T is going back to stock with new gearbox fitted and will either be up for sale or traded ... have 2 options ATM .. 1) MK II Auto ute with luxury pack,premium brakes etc etc etc etc etc or 2) F6 Tornado and it doesn't take long to rack up the $$$'s on option 1 before you are knocking on the door of option 2.. so hopefully sometime in the next 6-8 weeks there will be vixen II with PIII Count me out for the cruise..I dont trust the granade on the end of the gearstick ATM
  8. Hello All As Mr X has stated I have been very very busy of late.. Vixen is sick ATM ...She is suffering from an incorrectly preloaded countershaft in the gearbox which the dealer rebuilt after 2nd gear decided it would rather select neutral...Apparently manual T5 utes are affected by this syndrome(even xt's).. I am still waiting for the dealer to rebuild it again but they are saying the mods have caused the preload problems... :jerkit: ... And thursday night the radiator let go Vixen is going to be traded in for a new 4 speed auto ute, but I have read that a 6 speed auto is being released in MKIII in October..so do I wait Anyway have an Appraiser coming around tomorrow to give me the usual "bullsh*te" Will be cruising again in the not to distant future with new Vixen ute with phase III spec's + MORPOWA Tuned Crapa Edit and modded auto $$$$$$$ ] P.S I am no longer Cruise Controller as I cant dedicate the required time to organise things..So anyone who wants to be CC are more than welcome to PM admin for details.. Catch up with you all later
  9. My right hand rear has done it twice and both times I noticed the cuts in the tread was after dyno runs.. Much happier now know the dyno ain't causing it
  10. Anyone up for a drag meet on the 16th... I will be a spectator , as the manual trans is not sounding very healthy since a early morning cruise Time for a New auto ute
  11. :lol: They do look better lowered, don't they If I'm not mistaken its a work ute.. Therefore it carries weight. What is the point of lowering it so it drags its gut on the road when its loaded
  12. Hello All.. Mr X and myself have been discussing the possability of a monthly early morning sunday cruise... Starting time will be around 6.00am or 7.00 am and will go for approximately 3hrs.. If anyone is interested a date and place will be posted a couple of weeks before hand The day cruises will continue ...Planning one for next month
  13. :o Good looking ute you have there Terry....looks like its been well looked after... Happy utering
  14. tell me about it manual ute is probably the worst modded combo to have for standing starts.. And they will break traction in 2nd gear at 80km/hr in the dry, and in 3rd gear at 110km/hr in the wet...
  15. From this day forth. The kelly's will be known as Dumb And Dumber You make up you mind which one is which.. My money is on rick being Dumber
  16. Sorry boys and girls but my auto lek is taking annual leave for 2 weeks starting the wednesday night.. This means I'm stuck doing both mechanical and auto lek breakdowns ,so no cruises or outtings for me
  17. Congrats Terry ... Welcome to the 2 door club :lol:
  18. Thinking its time to come up with a cruise...
  19. When ford flashed my ecu , it listed on the screen the updates that already had been flashed into it.From memory there were 4 updates already done Can't recall if it had dates and times were recorded though..
  20. Anyone going to the Clipsal 500?
  21. Love the GT series but sometimes the gaming evolution goes backwards. eg Flight simulator 2004 is a backwards step to 2002.. Looks like I'm going shoppping
  22. Is GT4 worth getting then?
  23. Vixen has returned from the dealers (warranty work).. 1) gearbox is a 1/3 new...well I tried for a T56 upgrade but got a upgraded shift mechanism instead 2) Diff is new but is different in design from the original..Mk II maybe 3) new rear leaf spring ..so quiet in the back end now :D So after some running in off the diff its party time again :o
  24. It was crowded in heaven one day, so St.Peter could only let people who had a bad death in. The first man came in and said: I knew for sure that my wife was cheating on me, so, I came home early to catch her with a man, I checked everywhere, then I when onto my 25th floor apartment balcony and seen a man dangling from my balcony gripping the ledge. I thought he was the man that she was cheating on me with, so I went in and got my base ball bat and started hitting his hands. He fell, but to make sure he was dead, I threw my refridgerator onto him. He got crushed in the bushes and was dead. The strain of lifting the refridgerator gave me a heart attack and killed me. St.Peter said he killed the guy with passion and let him in. The next guy says: I was doing acrobats on my 26th floor balcony when I did a handstand. I fell off with my hands gripping the 25th floor balcony. 2 minutes later a crazy maniac came out and started hitting my hands with a base ball bat. I fell into a bush then he threw a refridgerator on me and killed me. So St.Peter let him in. The third guy said: Imagine me, naked in a refridgerator.
