R-SPEC

that's near where I live. Coulda been me but would have to have been after 6pm though...

Just get a centre peice made up with either 2 straight pipes or 2 hotdogs (if you want to make it legal). There is one flange just before the centre muffler and one just after it, before it goes over the axle. Just bolt up the hotdogs if you want a bit of a pur and bolt on the centre muffler if you have a warranty claim. You can literally swap it back to stock whenever you want. Mint Also, I've read several posts from credible people suggesting that the stock exhaust is good for 300+rwkw.

You are speeecial Dags.

Both the F6 and R Spec come with Premium audio system with colour TFT display screen, 6-disc in dash CD, 6 speakers, 150 watt amplifier and 150 watt sub-woofer. The only non standard thing about the R Spec is that they give you the Auxilary audio plug in (iPod / MP3). The specs are here: http://www.fpv.com.au/media/19390/fpv%20f6...cifications.pdf And the additional features of the R Spec are all listed here: http://www.fpv.com.au//media/34501/f6rflyer.pdf So in other words, yes, they do come with the sub and amp. I just disconnected the 6" sub and connected up a 12" and amp and it cranks now :D The only pain in the bot bot is that the standard sub hangs quite low into the boot. Cheers!

Congrats mate. You'll love it! Did you get Auto or Manual and where abouts are you from?

Mate I live just down the road in Croydon Hills and my financee works in Blackburn so I'm always down that neck of the woods. I'll keep an eye out. Yours is easier to spot in Orange than mine being the same colour as everyone else! Good to see another youngin F6 driver! You should come out on a Friday night cruise next time. Cheers

spine you headin out tonight?

None of that makes sense. My F6 with 3500kms on it made 213kw on just under 9psi. So what you're saying is absolute crap. It's not possible on 4.4psi. I think they've f*cked up your run, I'd go back and tell em to do it properly this time free of charge.

Getting mine tuned has been the only thing on my mind all week. So tempting, even more since Dave told me the only way Ford can tell if you've flashed it is if, say they've flashed it 5 times on their records, your car will tell them the flash count is 5, then every time Nizpro flash it the car goes back to 3. So if for some reason a really really cluey mech at Ford for some unknown reason decided to read the flashes and it said less than what he has on his records, then there's no other explination other than if it's been unofficially flashed. SO tempting... Edit: I mean, who the f*ck is going to check the flash count? If I get it serviced by my trusted mechanic and not Ford, if I did have an insurance or warranty claim, there's no reason why I'd have to take it back to Ford other than to have that specific item looked at. It's a risk, but you only live once...

Anyone heading out to the usual spot tonight?

When my financee was 16 I used to pick her and her friends up from school in my natty Series III Bluebird, slammed with TRX wheels on it. One arvo we were driving home and I was on the phone with a burger in my hand and she was changing gears for me. Here's how it plays out... "Can you put it in second babe?" *click click rev* "Can you put it in third?" *click crunch click rev* "Can you put it in nineth?" "What? Where's nineth?" To date, her best call ever. lol

Ouch! You're lucky bro. I would have kicked him in the nuts and said: "That's as close a feeling as you can have to what I feel right now!"

The front looks as if it sits a lot lower than the back on my one... I have no issues with the handling at all. It's f*cking unreal. Haven't had it over 200kph, and to be quite honest, it's a complete waste of money to replace anything if you're keeping it stock. How many times do you want to go over 200kph if you enjoy your licence? I think the lowest clearance is 110mm which is obviously 10mm above roadworthy limit.

That is nuts. Top car mate. Can't wait to see it in the mags...

lol I almost got RSP3CD and then came 1 second away from buying RSP3CT (R Spec'ed and Respect) gay I know. So I thought I'd look like a tosser and get my initials and birth year, that way no one could accuse me of driving my daddy's car. I'll be like, yeah, my dad is 24 and has the same initials as me and has subs in the boot and rips huge f*cking burnouts, you moron. Besides, he drives an LS1 HSV lol

At least I'm not alone on that one! Cheers for the comments, I'll sink back into my hole now.

I might try and get down there. Haven't been to a show for years coz I'm always working, but I have Tuesdays off. I can only imagine the conniptions all of the Knox Police Dept have when they see all those cars in one place. God they're a bunch of ninnies I swear, especially Constable Ritchie. He's pulled over more cars than Gray St St Kilda has.

Furry muff. Guess I'll just have to change my attitude towards them... Note to self: It's tuff to have brake squeal James. Tuff.... *cough*

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: F*UCKING IDIOTS THOSE WHEELS ABSOLUTELY SUCK! Slam the bitch on it's guts and put some 20+" rims on it you morons. Grow up Ford! EDIT: Can someone please photoshop the 19" F6 rims onto one of those photos and post it? Then mail it to Ford headoffice in an envelope marked 'CLUE'

It's not hard mate; control the throttle and counter-steer! Just practice! Edit: Not in front of the Police.

I took it in to Ford to get a 3000k check up and booked the car in for the 'spray man' to respray the rear sploiler after the scuff on the left corner was quite poorly disguised on delivery, and had a whinge about the slight brake squeal I'm getting from brand-freaking-new Brembos. He shook his shoulders and told me it wasn't anything unusual. Does anyone else experience this or has anyone said the right thing and got it fixed? I hear they spray anti-squeal on the rotors. GREAT fix Ford!

JESUS! YOU SERIOUS? that's nuts! I can only hope for an output like that!

I wasted $5 and a squirt of Meguiars in the bucket at the local washbay on Friday night before I left. Not happy Jan!

Any difference between an auto and manual?

Is there a noticable difference on the dyno between auto and manual? You've just really tempted me to get Nizpro to dyno mine stock. What does it usually cost for 1 run?
