Nice... I like the wheels, very much in the touring car style!! I must admit I do have a run a bigger motor than you, a 4 litre twin cam turbo GT35/40, running around 14psi. It is an absolute ripper, should do a 12 sec quarter mile or there abouts... Here is a pic of my car... hope you like it... Jack

Have you got any picture of it you'd like to post up here? It must look crazy with 18's on it... I've got 20's on my car and making around the 530bhp mark... you've got a little catching up to do Do you watch the car programs out of the UK, like Top Gear and 5th Gear? We get edited versions here, but I love watching them... Tiff Neddel and Jeremy Clarkson are great, but I must admit I think I love Vicki Butler-Henderson... Jack

Nah... don't let that stop you... send them a message asking if they can make an exception... and that you are prepared to pay for postage. I see you drive an XR3i, we don't get Escorts here, they stopped importing them in the late 70's... what does your car look like? What power does it have? Any mods done, like wheels ect? Yeah I saw that... hopefully he can help us get the title back from the 'evil empire' that is Chelsea... it's annoying watching, pretty much knowing that you are only playing for 2nd place... Jack

Nice one... one of my best mates goes for 'L.I.V.E.R.P.O.O.L Liverpool FC, Come on you reds'... everytime they are on the TV here he sings that!! I go for Arsenal... don't hold that against me... Harry played well against Japan, he was very tightly marked though, but it was his first full 90 mins of play for a little while, such a creative player, he deserves some luck with his injury!!! Check if you bid on Ebay in Oz that they will send overseas... Catch Jack

My sister lives in Nth Ireland and we send money and stuff over there all the time and the exchange rate is close to half... $50.00 australian will get you about 20ish pounds... I think... And with regard to the football... we played very well the other day... would be good if England can get a fair way in to the finals... maybe even a repeat of '66? Jack

With regard to injectors get Nizpro injectors... they are 750cc... so have plenty of headroom compared to the 440cc you have quoted... they are about $680 I think from memory. A lot of the boys here run a Walbro in-tank pump and they seem to be a wrap for them, so maybe try that. Anything near 300rwkw will have your T5 on very borrowed time... I have just replaced mine with a T56 with new clutch... be very careful. Good luck with it either way you go... where are you located? Jack

Ah... you are from the UK. Well it's all starting to make sense now!!! Have you tried www.ebay.com.au the australian site? You can buy the XR6 Turbo badges on there for a few bucks... Here is a link to Oz Ebay for the badges you are after... Are you gonna watch the football in a few hours? Should be a good game! C'mon Australia!!! Jack

I've got Nizpro Valve Springs in mine too... Jack

Cheers gogo... Simon has mentioned a couple of times that it's a bit of freak, I just wish the damn thing had Premium Sound!! but I suppose I can fit that if I want to... it's hard to retro fit freakness Yeah Adam, I was talking to Robin today about it... it just means a hell of a lot of saving on my behalf to be able to afford the built motor, stage 2 on a stock motor would 'only' make 330rwkw but the gains in throttle response and stuff is probably worth it... Got some thinking to do!!! Jack

Are you after the chrome one's that are on the boot? I took mine off and threw them out... They should be on Ebay... I've seen them there before. Jack

Good work... awesome colour choice as well. They look so good with the black 19's... Enjoy! Jack

Just out of interest F6 what are the tyres worth in 275/30/20? Are they correctly load rated? As that was one of my issues when I first bought them, that there wasn't anything really available in a 20" that was load rated... I agree that the 9.5" rear on the 20" looks sensational, but I just wish I'd bought the same wheel in a 19" now with 9.5" rear... Jack

Jack

Hey NeedMorePower... remember me from the bottle shop on Thompsons Rd in Bulleen? I won't race it, not interested in racing my car at Calder, I know, girls dick, but I've been once before and broken it, so to me that is just about enough... I don't need to know how quick it would run the quarter mile... it's plenty fast on the street already... Jack

Painting him blue was funny though... I saw the statue on Sunrise this morning, and then they interviewed Wally and even he thought it was pretty funny... Good on them for having the balls to do something so crazy... Jack

Dagabond... if you are serious, then so am I. Jack

Bring it on flukey... I see your pic and raise you... And with regard to TintR's car, I've seen it in the flesh a couple of times now and it looks absolutely awesome... excellent height. Very nice car Brett Jack

Hey Brett, I saw your car down there the other day, it's looking brilliant with the BF front bar on it. What did you get out of your car? Hope your loving it as much as I'm loving mine... Good luck with it Jimmy, the advantage of valve springs is that they allow the tuner to hold the power and torque right to the redline, and in my case that is 6500rpm, my car holds over 300rwkw from about 3600rpm till about 6100rpm, it is literally just insanity... Too right there Robin, I don't want a Good Friday event to happen to me just yet... but Nizpro stage 2 is next and then I want an engine that can hold the rest. Only God now can help my poor 20" tyres... Jeez I wish I'd bought 19's with a 275 rear tyre now... anyone wanna buy some awesome 20's? Jack

Have you put in the 3.73's yet Robin? It must pull through the gears like nothing else... and here I was thinking my car is fast now... well it probably is, but it's not fast, fast... That reminds me... I need bigger brakes now. Jack

Robin you are out of control... That 1.5l Lancer that beat you from the lights on the way to work will have no hope now... Nah... seriously, that is just crazy mate... I'm attempting (and failing) to try and keep up with you and the other boys with Nizpro tuned cars... but god I'm having some fun trying!!! Jack

Nah... he won't run me now, he doesn't take defeat terribly well and he's driven my car on the last tune it had (304rwkw) and just couldn't believe for the money spent how fast it was... I've scared him off... Jack

That is just pathetic... hope it all works out for him, surely they can't give him the car that had an accident as a new car... Stupid!! Jack

That's no good Jet... hope your missus is ok, and the car can be repaired... Hope it all works out well for you and you have no problems with the insurance companies. Jack

That it has... I can't wait to do more to it... I love it!! Jack

Good luck with it mate!! Hope you run a fast time! Jack
