I drive by monsta torque at least once a week as one of our branch offices is 2 mins from there. There are always falcons parked up to the entrance of the car park. Not sure where he is getting all this business from, but I suppose it is a good thing, since he no longer works on the mines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 06/12/17 05:42 AM Share Posted 06/12/17 05:42 AM I spoke to Rob on Friday and overheard he was working all weekend, just because of how busy they currently are. He didn't even get to All Ford Day because he worked that weekend too. He said they've have been hell busy lately with people spending big money on work for their Falcons plus they've been getting busier from tuning the Rangers etc. I expect February will be a busy month too, with all the last minute work for people wanting to go to Racewars. I don't know what it's been like lately but the last two times I booked in for services, the weeks I wanted, he ended up being in Karratha or somewhere like that doing tuning, so he definitely does seem to be continuously busy the last 12 months.

If it was slipping lots before the rebuild the electronics will have adjusted and now the shifts will be really firmed up. Common to break things after a rebuild... The issue is the box software cant be reset.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely there is something that can do it on a falcon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
