Nah, just kidding!!!

Hi everyone, long time listener, first time poster... My name is Alvaro and I come from the slums of Rockinham in sunny WA. :beerchug:

I have been a member of the furum since the time where is was IMPOSSIBLE to get more than 230rwkws out of the stock injectors and pinnaple juice was flowing freely. I nearly got into a T on two occasions previously but just missed out, so its 3rd time lucky. The first two times the family car was upgraded firstly to a an RX Liberty and secondly to a black Liberty GT. Last month I picked up what was one of the last Rip Curl packs -

07 BF MkII, proper 6spd with a clutch

Octane

Hardlid

Rip Curl pack (18's, 6CD, Momo wheel, poxy wetsuit seat covers)

First set of mods include window tint (done), lower grill (done - big thumbs up to themeshman260) and doof-doof. This will consist of replacing factory speakers with 6 1/2" splits on the front, 6x9" in the back, 1 4xchannel to run the speakers, 1 2xchannel amp to run 2 subs, either 12's or 15's mounted behind the seats. This should get done in the next two weeks.

Next set of planned mods will be injectors, Cat, dump, CAI, fuel pump, new clutch and of course a custom tune by the man himself at XFT. Hoping to get this done this year, also have to save some pennies to go on holidays...

Final (errhem) set of mods will include a Process West stage 2 cooler/plenum and Exhaust, but this will be a bit later down the track.

I look forward to catching up with Forum members at the Plex when I take it down in stock form to see what I can get out of the Jaffa.

Cheers,

Alvaro

Don't kknow what it is about Rocko and XR6T's but there becoming common as dog's balls... must be cause we know what a real car should be :kewlpics:

Congratulations on the purchase mate and as others have said, keep an eye out for fellow forum members. I'll also be at the plex within the first few weeks of it re-opening so I'll probably see you down there :beerchug:

Cheers guys,

I'll keep my eye out for local members and I look forward to catching up at the plex or at a cruise.

Its easy - Rocko has been a petrol scented suburb dating well back to Ravenswood and before that - so when you get the car with the biggest balls to'ave come out of Broadmeadows since the XA GT, its only to be expected!! :kewlpics:

I've only managed to get 400kms to each tank so far and loving every minute of it - even in stock form. Might take the rear wheels for warranty repairs, they seem to just keep on spinning.... :beerchug:
