  3. I am in a similar predicament. Having sold my BF F6 (good offer) and getting a territory 7 seater(gave the Black TTG back) I miss my car. Had a look at the FG XR6T and FG GT and I am not sold on their looks. I prefer the BF. I have an option on another Black BF F6 just as before, and I am leaning towards that in preferance to an FG. Don't like the interior really. I might just have a Black BF F6 again! James
  4. Guy's, I sold my rims (2 Dark Argent 19 option wheels) and there was some interest from here but not enough to buy. If you want to get yours repaired like mine, the guys from Albion Wheel repair can do a good job. They also now have the right paint to match the FPV Option wheels. Thanks James
  5. I am not in for the keys. I asked for a price by PM, but not to be on the list. Sorry, James
  6. I traded my rims and tyres for these which the tyres were 5000klm old. Mine were almost new as well. $1100 exchange. Not sure on the load rating, but it changed mid model. The program that Bob Jane has specifies this. I think it in the 700's post this. James
  7. These are the rims on mine. Depending on year and AWD, Sep 05 onwards has different load rating which is lower than before. Go and see Bob Jane for the values, but these were load rated for mine being a Sep 05 build AWD. 20 x 8.5 with 275/40/ZR20 106 James
  8. I will have two FPV Genuine Dark Argent 19's for sale next week. One front and one rear (different offest). Just getting the edges tidied up from some gutter rash. Will be as good as new, however I will only have two. I will be posting up here before I Ebay them as I know some people on here would prefer them. James
  9. I am not able to get badges any more. Sorry guys. James
  10. I might be in if I don't sell my car by friday. The injectors might as well go in if I get a tune freshen-up!!!! Will advise friday night. James
  11. I will try again for the stickers. James
  12. Check with FPV as it appears that they are now standard fitment, which I personally think was overdue. I haven't been able to get an answer yet anyway, so sorry for those who are waiting. James
  13. Checking availability again. Will keep ya all posted. James
  14. Black R Spec should be nice. And yes, Dark argents suit well. I am actually going to sell my Black BF F6 auto now. Need to get a territory. Enjoy your R spec. James
  15. Looks good. I want to do the same for my phoon, but in red or silver.. James
  16. I was anticipating a more complete package, but really I must say the white car as displayed at th SMS looks lame. I would actually rather spend my money on a TT, althought the brakes would be good, but the TT already has an improved setup. The trim is also a bit much on the F6 X. I am looking at a car for the misses, but I might just get her a Outlander instead and save the money. One turbo is enough in the family..... James
  17. Just another update... The tyres seems great, no problems, but they still have trouble maintaining traction when on boost. It is better than before and I guess when you have upwards of 600+nm of torque (just a close guess ATM), traction is always an issue. They are also relatively quite, or as quiet as the OEM Sport Maxx. Would recommend them. I did also get a good price, which was only marginally dearer than the MAXXIS MA-Z1 some people rave about. I prefered to get a tread design similar to the one I have already. James
  18. Just a quick note on the new Falken 452's. Rear end grip around corners is noticably better. My tyres were past there use by date. Funnily I am not sure why the front ones are still good???????????? I must say though, the wear on the old Sport Maxx's was excellent and even across the tread. The left rear was worn more than the right rear which I have kept as a just-in-case tyre spare. James
  19. You know that is not a bad idea. James
  20. Decided on FALKEN 452's, based on all reports I could find, here and on LS1 forum. Another reason is I have had the K104's and most on here did not like them on the Fords. The 452's have had excellent reports and have a very similar tread design to the Sport Maxx. They also rated well in the Wheels test 2007. The MA-Z1 from MAXXIS is cheap at 250 , but they are very different in tread design and also the wear indicator is very low. They are also a rounded shoulder design tyre, which was two different from the Maxx. Will have them end of the week, so reports on how they go then..... James
  21. Guys, Badges are on the way once I get your addresses, I have sent some already for those that have supplied the information. Also, I have a spare set of XR in CHROME with CHROME ring on RAPID YELLOW background. PM if you want this one set. First in, best dressed, James
  22. Can you post a pic of them on your rim? I was going to ask what rims, but if you post a pic, that will be good. Also what did you have before in the 19's? James
  23. 4000L rain water tank+pump, I use the hose or bucket and watering can depending how bad it is. I still try to use as little as I can, but I wash my cars once each week normally. James
  24. Thanks for that. I had the K104's (235/40/ZR18) and I thought they were ok. You need to remember that there are different verion of the same tyre. Bob Jane are advertisiing the MAX-1 in 245/35/ R19 which I would guess is a H rated tyres, but in other countries its a ZR rating with appreciably better grip. The K107 specs look good. I would like some info on the KU31's in 245/35/ZR19. Price for me on these is $240 ea. James
  25. Has anyone had experience with these two tyres on the Typhoons/XR's? Iv'e had the K104's before on the clubby, but wanted to know also about its use on the high torque cars. Any feedback on the Kumho Escta KU31's? Both are around the same price. Thanks James
