I have asked both of them this question before. holdens are apparently stock engine wise, but with better suspension and wider tyres. with the fords, like said before they have LSD, heavy duty suspension, bigger alternator, but some BF turbos come with a different tune from the factory, which can be identified by an extra sticker on the door. depending on state and department, these tunes are wiped before being sold to public while some are kept. this is usually the same case with the cars they realease to press.

I know they carry a bit of gear in the car but it can't be that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEZZA XR6 Member 52 Member For: 16y 8m 12d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 05/12/08 08:40 AM Share Posted 05/12/08 08:40 AM hahahaha ms700. I spoke to my uncle again today, and the way he knows is because recently they have had bf turbos comming in to be worked on, but the cars computers block them connecting to it. they had to ring ford and they told them to check if their was an extra sticker on the door. the three they have had this happen to, two were ex highway patrol, and one was ex ford exec, which had been used to loan to media when the bf was released.I have also seen another story with a guy who has a bf turbo from the east, whos car also used to be a media release car, who had this same story.
