To answer your question about kick down scribr. I have heard alot of the big pony boys with auto's can only drive in manual mode so the car doesnt kick down unexpectedly.

yeap I wouldnt mind knowing the answer also. My thoughts are that its easier to take off in an auto because you dont have to pop the clutch & risk frying tyres

I love the color of the Ripcurl utes. This is the main point of this topic, 300 rwkw are soo easy to come by.

Ok Guys & Girls, After seeing the number of first time up graders post questions that would lead others to believe the owners of these cars really shouldn’t be playing with sooo much power I thought I would ask the question. Ruffly what point do XR6 turbo’s really start loosing street drivability?? This topic could be a good starting point for people new to the cars looking for modification but not sure when will power upgrades really start effecting street drivability. I realise at all power levels it inevitably comes down to the person driving the car and how the car is set. Hearing stories of people cautious not to take their car out in the wet or past 3000 rpm etc etc…. it would be good to create an indicative benchmark. I think this topic will work best if the boys with the big ponies & tuners who have progressed up the power curve point out where they believe the balance was tipped. I personally believe XRT’s start loosing drivability some were around the 300-350rwkw’s, this is the time overtaking & driving in the wet start to take some serious thought. This topic is meant to help people new to the cars & modifying soo could flaming please be left to other topic’s. Regards TUFXRT6

If I remember correctly some one had a little tooo much courage last time we went through these hills.

Sorry Gary, ohhhhh, what stage are you planning????? Very jealous

Sorry to hijack but whats 4 more sleeps??

your reply was included in my opinion

Whats with all the soft reply's.

Why dont you start this exact same thread in the VIC section of the site????

Are you being serious?? That would be great

Whats the average cost of a car bra??? I do most of my driving at dusk in the country, Bugs show up big time on yellow. Regards

yeap sounds good.

Cars come & go but family stay forever so I'm glad every one is ok. I think the majority of people on this site will be sadden to hear the XR is gone as it was the bench mark & the foundation's of Ford turbo performance. Atleast we still have the video's. Regards TUFXRT

Is it me or do there clothes look photo chopped??

Ok, what about sedans?? I finally got the green/ amber light from my local service centre that replacing exhaust from cat back would be basically impossible for Ford engineers from warranty inspections to prove that it was the reason for faults. So Im now in the market to give the car a better note without major drone. What do people suggest & what are the costs??

Yeap I will tag along, what would be the indicative timing in July for the cruise?? Regards

Personally I would have picked a smaller car so I didnt have to dig such a bluddy big hole!! Im just a slacker

Just throwing this out there but...... Do the Fairmonts / upper end fords have lower rear lights???

Do you think they will cover it all under the warrenty??? That is really bad news, there has been a few going boom @ the moment do you think its the weather??

I like it but...... Whats with the cheap looking cd player!!!! Also they dont say anything about what size are the breaks?? The back ones look huge

I wonder if there are warrenty / insurance issues. Im getting my car serviced next week so I might ask the question. Regards TUFXRT

It always get back to who is tuning it?? I would say 320-350rwkw

Yeap that would be a great start, most Turbo VL drivers know Nizpro as a respectable place to ask questions & see other people's experiences. Regards TUFXRT6

I gave my home computer to my brother for school, so without work I'm up the Proverbial creek without a paddle. Regards
