    Your First Car?

    That VC would be quite valuable today, is it in good condition these days? My first car was a HK Belmont with 3 on the tree and a 161ci motor. I done heaps of kays in that thing but like many of us and our first cars it came to an end with a crunch!
  2. Are you saying you changed the ecu cause you wanted to get over 450 or you changed it to get 450? What was the power figure ATW with the standard ecu?
  3. My driver door actuator died, lucky with the driver door you can still lock it via the old school button down and hold the handle up technique
  4. Ive put ethanol blended fuel in ages ago and never a problem, the fuel was that SHELL V POWER RACING 100, nice fuel but not for everyday.
  5. I just got edited after 4 years of UNICHIP, at this stage its a capa style edit which im pretty happy with as the ute has never been better and its giving me butterflys in the stomach when I drive now which is a bonus as ive had the car since new and having a good feeling again about it is pretty cool. The over all power figure was kept the same but the rest is totally different and all for the best. I will be retuning it via a different edit once I have more time to book the car back in to the tuners, I basically had to get my car back before the tuner had enough time to fully work out this new EDIT style hence the (temporary) CAPA style edit.I have no preference to which edit my car is tuned with by the way.. Thanks for reading another annoying edit story
  6. Are you the guys who do the firewood? My dad lives in Hill Top and im down in the are all the time for work.
  7. nearly 180k now with 280rwkw all its life and still has original t5 in it.
  8. Im glad I heard it from someone, im really sick of the rapid power loss from start up. Its like after 10 mins you lose about 40kw, well at least that's how it feels.

    My G6et

    I like these cars, nice classy look with the power on tap. Its a luxury car and I guess if its teated like that no LSD is needed, its when talk of modding them and lowering with big wheels is metioned that I start to hear tyre noise and I start to see understeer.
  10. Lets just see how he goes, I think its a welcome change regardless of circumstance.
  11. Its got a Spiro happy slap sticker on the rocker cover, maybe Geeseman knows it.
  12. I have tossed around the idea of working in the mines, but quality of life is the one thing that turns me around. Big dollars in labour based jobs doesnt come easy if your the one doing the labour..
  13. Can you here the hitmen rubbing there hands together?
  14. Im cool with that, I only run 280atw and dont really want anymore power from it! Just want better cooling.

    Where do you guys ride?
  16. How do the gears shred when hitting the limiter? Is it only when bouncing on and off it or is it the same if your just hitting it once, like if you spin the wheels and it just flys up to the limiter then you back off????
  17. hahahaha, and yet you will buy another ford hahahaha! Fu@k ford, they got my money this time but ill think long and hard before I do it again! I should add that I love my ute Its a BA 04 and iv had it since new!
  18. I think management is a good starting point to any career change especially if you had to supervise employees. Id say with the curret financial situation the change to Marine Sales would be a dead end Whats this new job
  19. +1 havent installed mine though, got mine new from SXD. The only difference is that mine doesnt have that dodgy PWR emblem painted on it thank F&CK
  20. scenery
  21. Martini racing sint 0w-40 also think Repsol Competicion 10w40 is a good buy
  22. I guess the first thing I would consider would be, is my skill set usefull with another employer or am I capable to run a business on my own using these skills. A few good years then a decade of not so good years might not make the transition valuable. This might not be the case with your decision but the chances are just as even. I would say that most of us here have thought about a change in career, I think it shows courage to think outside the box and your already half way there to changing. If you tell us what you do it may help.
