  1. was thinking the cobra snake badge or a mustang badge for my xr6t lol
  2. yeah was kinda concern having the stone guard in place as I thought it will restrict the air flow plus having the trans cooler in front of the IC aswell I message the guy asking if he still had my stone guard and hopefully put it back on to protect it
  3. I got some cheap ones installed they don't look to bad at night but will like to upgrade to the cobalt ones will I need to rewire new ones in? or will the old wiring be able to plug in the new gauges and work??
  4. Hi I just got my trans cooler installed into my 04 Ba xr6t yesterday its a H/D drive tech which is a quite long but only 1.5cm wide so it allows to my believe air to flow through it so it also hits the inter cooler it also is 2inchs off from the top of the lower bar so u can fit a hand just under the plate and touch the IC. I did ask him will it affect my cars performance coz It sit in front of my IC and I know the IC will need good air flow to work efficient he told me it wont and that he installed many like these into ppls turbo falcons. so im posting it up showing you what they did and would like to know or get any feed back to how it looks or if I could have done it differently mind u the whole set up was $500 installed I was quoted $1300 for trans cooler with its own fan and that wouldn't sit in front of it. also another note I gave her a boot full today seeing how hot the cooler got and didn't get hot at all so air must be flowing in nicely plus car feels like it pulls stronger and the gears hold nicely with no slipping at all mind you the car only has done 100300ks on it.
  5. I know a mate who's dad did something similar to his xr6
  6. I envy u ute drivers as I want one so bad my 04 Ba mk2 xr6t has only done 96500ks so far I love it but I don't drive it as much only when im bored I go for long drives and enjoy the sunset ahhh so magical =D
  7. Also my FG only has 106ks and I think it needs a expensive services :(
  8. I can agree that the xr6 5speed auto is sh*t my car will clunk every time I go from p to r into d when cruising gears won't change properly and even when u punt it hard seem for it to take a few seconds before it starts to move I wish I went for the 6speed zf even my ba mk2 turbo 4speed trans goes better and harder then the 5speed
  9. I have a question if I was to buy a new set of gauges boost and a new oil pressure gauge will I need to rewire them up or can I some how use the ones that my car has atm want to replace my crap cheap ones now I have the $$$ any advice much appreciated cheers.
  10. abit late to the party but I tried this took me at least 25-30mins coz my top tube that connects to the top of the solenoid went over my bottom radiator hose making it almost impossible to remove I got there slowly and thinking carefully and did this little maintenance squirting wd40 into the top tube connect everything up so making it easy to get to again and went for a drive after 5mins of warming my car up and wow boost never came on as strong as it did just cruising along have it a bit of leg and man does it take off so l'm please =D
  11. ok cool cheers ps love the display pic
  12. Hi I was thinking of upgrading the stock oil line feed to the turbo with a s/s braided oil line feed but im not too sure if I should wait till I recondition my turbo and do them at the same time or if I can do it now and not having to wait for so long my Ba xr6t has only done 96400ks on it would like some info if I should go ahead and do it now or wait till I recondition the turbo also what brand of s/s braided oil line do u recommend I should get and do they all have filters in them?? cheers.
  13. Ok cool might get mine looked at soon
