YellowTurbo

A twin plate from herrod is going in on Monday.

Ok, this is the go... I spoke to Race Brakes Sydney, they told me that the G4 brakes are rubbish. They can do some good cheapish deals on fronts. AP racing 4 spots with two piece rotors 338mm, with lines and pads. $3150 Brembo 4 spots two piece rotors 344mm, lines and pads. $3300 Or PBR 2 spots on 355mm rotors for 1900 The pads are slighty more expensive for the Brembos 295 for the fronts, AP's 225. AP require a 17inch wheel, while the Brembo's need a 18 min and then they might not fit behind the wheels. It depends spoke design. I'm leaning too the AP because they will fit behind my territory rims for track. G4 coilover maybe a goer however I need to look at the tein's or wait for the HSD.... Any thoughts lads?

Better rims out there dude

Has anyone tried or has fitted a pwr raditor..and do you like it?? They look the sh*t but do they work well?

Rito... I have a 6 man with 277rwkw...I can hear you guys saying go with the auto. However the car is going to be setup for track. what times am I going to see?

Has anyone heard of these? You can get them from Just Jap. they seem good, with all jap parts in them. braided lines. They have to ok to pass ADR's Also G4 Coilovers, they seem like a good deal. You can choose your spring rate Has anyone fitted these, reports?

Cheers dude, I'll be up your way next year, see you out on the streets and track. Also it your interested herrod send a mate of theirs up to darwin to tune some of their cars. might have to go for bigger injectors

What kind of power are you putting out. I think that injectors are a must.... but they'll have to wait a few weeks. I'll see what herrod can do with fixing the tune in it. I have no doubts that Rob will do a good job. I got quoted the same price as you, but add all you bits in like oil pump head gasket and the price quickly goes skywards

What kind of safe power are guys getting out of xr6 turbo mkII motors. To date I have catback, intercooler, gapped plugs, F6 intake and BMC filter. It been flash to 277rwkw however found that it was pinging today. Back to herrod next thursday. And back to lower tune. I'm thinking bad fuel cause it wasn't a hot day. Too much timing.....? Any thoughts?

Has anyone had anything to do with atomic short blocks, I have heard that they are the Sh*t. I just made 277rwkw on Monday but I'm having fuel problems and found that I'm pinging today. Added a bottle of octane booster which fixed it somewhat, but I decided it was best to drop back to about 240. Bigger injectors might be the go.

Has anyone have a engine oil cooler setup for their car? What did you use and do you have photos? Going to the heat of NT next year and I want to look after the car.

ummmm.....so does my wife... I was after a different look and something for the track. The 19's will go back on saturday though....

I still have 19's in the garge. Konya inox1 that I don't have a photo of at the moment, I forgot to get one. They are a nice thin 5 spoke with a crome lip....Had crome mirrors to suit Wanted to try something different, these look much tuffer. Different offset than xr6t rims and hoping to fit bigger brakes behind them.

pictures up, excuse the dirty car. I'm abit lazy lately. Any feed back welcome....Cheers

Mind you, they are a bit heavy but who really cares if you gutter them. I picked up 6 rims, 2 brand new sp3000s and 4 firestones for a total of $600. Two rims have never been on the car. Might look at getting lighter 17's in a few months

Could only hope one day that my car would ever look that good. TOP JOB DUDE!!!!

Depend where you live. Good years, eagle F1's or revspec. Dry go with a semi slick, I keen to give those semi ferrials a good. Heard good things.....I have Sp3000's though and struggle with 250rwkw. My mazda familia gtr had 245kw at all fours and ran eagle f1's

I wasn't saying they look better, but they offer a track option for the phoon guys. By the way don't buy them from Ford ($380) I believe they look tuffer than my 19's. I've also gone back to the yellow mirrors and the crome one are abit flashy with the black 17's

Cool, I'll get some pictures up on the weekend for you guys. Just machining up some wheel nuts as the territory nuts are $12 each. 19's, not too sure yet. I had them up for sale and the buyer fell through so I pulled them off the market. I had them up a $1200, I can't go lower than that cause they cost me a fair bit more. They are Konya inox1 and I can put some pictures of those up on the weekend too.

So... The steel Territory rims went on today. Black rims with black center caps, looks tuff rides well. The only issue I had was the wheels where are tight fit over the spindles. Well worth getting your hand on a set. They are abit on the heavy side though..... Heaps of room behind the wheels so you Phoon guys should be ok with your brembo's (lucky bast*ds) My 19's have now found themselves sitting up the back of the garge gathering dust!!! Believe yellow and black work very well.... If anyone is interested in a picture let me know and I'll try and get one up on the weekend.

Cool, thanks for that lads. I was looking for something to put a set of sp3000a's on and the came to mind.

Do the steel 17's from the territory fit ba xr6 turbo? I know stud pattern is cool however I'm unsure about the offset.

I have a Sep 2005 turbo 6 speed manual with 21,000 no scraches or dents. 19's abit modded but all standard parts and I would want about 31,000-32,000 You have to have a good look around the car, check under it for marks etc. that's the key. Service history. No reason you couldm't get a low 20k car for 32,000. Do you want mine?

The 5th of Aug you'll see a orange xr8 with a shaker and GT stripes, also has black centered wheels now. Give him a hard time tell him that Dale said you suck a drifting and you drive like a Bit*h. I'm a good friend. Also get ready to get flogged around the track next year when I rock up.

I maybe moving to Darwin next year, is there any turbo 6 fans up there. I run a xr6 turbo 6 speed, 251rwkw. Just want to hook up with anyother turbo or V8 dudes.
