It's only an hour away :blush:

And already does low 12's

Whats a "SSS auto"

And "Phantom Sedan" just refers to the colour right?

You are a long way away, its a bit more than my budget and I dont really like the colour...

An hour away? are you near the SA VIC border?

Having said all that its still got me thinking...

No I'm in Melbourne. We're an hour away on a plane :spoton:

And if you like it it's a nice drive back (comes with a car bra so you won't mess it up)

Dont just run out and buy the first one you see either, with that sort of money you should be able to pick up a good one with the colour and options your looking for.

The XR6 Turbo is one of Fords most popular models,and theres plenty out there.

I spent 3 mths looking for just the right one with exactly what I wanted before I found it......well worth the wait :crybaby:

Have you posted a wanted ad in the classifieds on this forum yet?

Never know what might turn up....  :Doh:

Actually the N/A is the most popular model followed by XT. All the fleet buyers buy them and car rentals.

Have you more photos of the car?

And can you list some of the things you "forgot" that youve added?

I know what you mean, I listed my pathfinder on carsales and I kept remembering things that I had done to it to add to the list.

I am looking at one but weighing up what to do. this one has 70,000kms on it and they want 28 thousand for it.

Not sure if I should do it or not. Car is tight and drives fine. just the kms and its an ex cop?

At that money and with those k's go get an ex-police one, which will give you better brakes on a BA and full size spare. Will also come with a very good service history and should have lots of warranty in terms of years left.

I've been thinking that I need new challenges. I've decided that if I can sell my car for a reasonable price I'm going to get a 6speed manual and make it into a track car. That being the case I need to sell "Rumble". Obviously if I can't get a good price for "Rumble" I'll keep him and make him into an auto track car.

Here are his detalis.

2003 BA XR6Turbo

Black

19" Zenetti Fusion wheels. 8.5" Front and 9.5" Rear. (front tryes are good rears are abit worn.

Road and Race Tunes by HPF. 350rwkw road tune as seen at BVW2 and 380rwkw race tune. The race tune uses 110 Ron fuel and has run 10.68@129mph

The car also has a switchable Xede that has a low boost tune, this can be switched on the fly and drops the power from 350rwkw's to 320ish rwkw's. This is handy in the wet as it also comes on softer.

Auto has been completely rebuilt by Kewish Automotive in Dandenong. Its been there developmental car and has all the best pieces inside. Its built to handle over 400rwkw's. The auto was finished yesterday so is brand new

The diff has been replaced by Dynowog with a brand new unit along with the bushes. The diff has done under 300km.

The bonnet is a Geea's Workshop (my brothers panel shop) Custom bonnet. I will also include the original bonnet aswell.

2litre surge tank mounted under the passenger firewall with an 800hp Bosch race fuel pump

Custom HPF CAI, mounted into the front guard where the battery usually sits

Battery is mounted in the boot.

60lb Seimens injectors

The engine was rebuilt before I bought the car by Autotech in Sydney. It has been balanced and Blueprinted and has stronger rods. Spiro at Autotech could give more details on the rebuild.

Large transmission cooler.

Debadged, there are no XR or Turbo badges on the car.

The brakes are standard brakes but are low km's (off Goldbullets car and have been machined and installed by Dynowog.

Car has a gauge pod with Autometer oil pressure and boost gauges.

Car is lowered with King SL's at the front and compressed factory springs at the rear.

The car also has an XBox fitted by Shock (Troy).

The normal features are:

Leather interior

Premium sound

FPV Pedals

Car has done 76000km's.

The car is amazing and one of the fastest street cars in Melbourne. The 350rwkw road tune has a best time of 11.1.

Asking price is $35000.
