So I thought I would post a little log of my F6.
I purchased the car in early 2019 trading in my G6ET for this 2009 FG F6 MK1 in Lightning Strike
I purchased the car stock besides a Process West Stage 2 intercooler.
I knew it needed diff bushes and some of the other usual wear and tear parts on falcons, however I was a little bit too excited about getting my F6 and overlooked a few things. When driving it home I noticed the trans was slipping from 3rd to 4th. So I decided to book it into CMS for a new trans and a PWR heat exchanger as well as a retune to hopefully prevent it happening in the future.
The car made 282rwkw basically stock which I was very impressed with for now.
I then bought some Michelin Pilot Super Sports all round to hold traction(I didnt have a lot of issues with traction in the first place but with future plans I think this was a good choice)
I had noticed the gearbox was slipping when cold and acting up again. However I put it down to it not being topped up with fluid correctly. I put up with this for a little bit to long, being hesitant of where to book the car into.
Over the past few years I had heard great things about hoontune, and now Precision Racing so I decided I would save and get my next round of mods from them.
So roughly 9 months later I booked it into Precision Racing for a transmission and gearbox service and their stage 2 package which consisted of:
- 4" Dump and Cat, twin 2.5" Catback exhaust
- Wastegate Mod and upgraded actuator
- 1000cc Bosch injectors
- Intank walbro 460 Fuel pump
- Silver racing spark plugs
- 4" Race airbox and battery relocation
- GFB Fuel presssure reg
- Speedflow Turbo feedline kit

AFTER
The guys at Precision Racing had great customer service and were awesome to deal with. I cant speak highly enough of them.
The car feels amazing being my daily driver, I was shocked at the drivability of it.
A long term goal for me was to have a 10 second street car so hopefully I will eventually get there. But due to a busy work schedule and my other commitments I think that can wait a little while.
As of right now I dont have any big plans for the car, I want to tidy up the bay, get some gauges and possibly a kayhan ICC.
For now I think its just a matter of keeping on top of maintenance and finding out what is going to break next.
