  2. It's not too late. just turn up on the day and pay at the gate. You can download an antry form from the website listed in the 1st post. that will make it easier when you arrive.
  3. The FTF Car Club of NSW is holding it's 2nd annual FORDS IN THE PARK Car Show. Last year being the first show held by the club and with having a few teething problems, (change of venues and wet weather), we eventually had 80 odd fords and raised over $5000 for The Children's Hospital at Westmead. We are aiming to be bigger and better this year and with your help it will be and raise much needed funds for a very worthwhile cause, being The Childrens Hospital at Westmead.

  4. I have a club meeting at Ryde on Friday night. Hopefully it will finish early enough and I will meet up with you along Ryde road somewhere. Pat I have Danny's number and will give him a call on the night.
  5. They all get very worried about things like this now. With the duty of care laws if it was reported and another accident occured and it was found that they didn't follow through o a complaint they would be hung, drawn and quartered.
  6. I went into Repco yesterday(should have known better) they said they could order one in. Then said that they were $184. I asked him what drugs he was on, then they asked me to leave the store.
  7. You pay a pro rata rate up to the next rego renewal then $440 per year. Yep it's a rip off, that is why mine will only stay on the car for 12 months.

    Using BP ultimate. Had half a tank of fuel in it when I picked it up new and have run Ultimate ever since. They did say it was running a little rich and that a few FG's that they have done are the same .
  9. They look great. I had the same wheel(in Graphite) on my BA ute. A word of warning with them is that they are a very soft alloy and damage easily. When you need to replace tyres on them make sure the fitter uses a rim protector on the edge otherwise the tyre lever WILL damage the edge of the rim.

    Took mine down to Autotech this morning to get a base dyno figure. Put down a nice 241.7 RWKW. Not a bad figure for a car with just 3,300 k's on it. I had the 3000k service yesterday, after talking to the spare parts manager who's car is also a GET, he told me that there were actually different tunes in these cars. He had his tune put to run straight 98 and had suggested to me to try it. Someone on here may be able to shed some light on this!! Well after picking the car up, it certainly did feel a bit more responsive so will wait and see how it goes. After getting back from Autotech I decided to put on the V8 Cold air box that I got from FTG. Will have to see if the power has increased, which I am not that fussed about as the much smoother throttle response that has come from it is worth the money in itself. Here's a dyno sheet from today. You just have to love these things.
  11. I must have had a good dealer as well. As I have the same as Smackers. Not the greatest but still better than getting the run of the mll plastic one when you lay down so much money. For the top of the range car.
  12. I had reverse sensors put on my BA ute. They were just the audible ones. but they were more than enough. They were colour coded and installed for around $350. He is based around Merrylands area. Shoot me a message if you want his info. Here's a sample of the job he did on mine.

    No, they were taken with my phone camera. Not the best way to try and get decent pics. Good to finally get to meet you pat. Certainly happy with the way it turned out.Thanks for the great service.

    No it wasn't me. I went through Kangaroo Valley and Berry mountain. Having a bit of fun with my son in his WRX. He was at how well it went.

    Only one form of LSD I want and it doesn't go under a car I had it done at Wholesale Suspension and it was $495 (forum price)supplied fitted and aligned. I had kings SSL front and rear, it lowered it about 20mm. Which is a happy balnce I think, low enough to give the car a nicer stance but n ot that low that you hit scrape at all. I went over wisemans ferry yesterday and had plenty of room under the front bar even at low tide.
