Hey guys. I thought I'd start up a thread on my pride and joy, it's a 2002 BA XR6 Turbo in Blueprint

Engine: BA DOHC 4.0 VCT Turbo

Transmission: BTR 4 Speed Auto

Diff: 3.73 Rebuilt LSD

The day I picked it up:

Now how it stands this day:

The Changes I made:

Upgraded the bonnet to the XR8 Style with the buldge,

Changed the XR8 Rims to 20" HRRacing Rims,

Standard suspension to Pedders Adjustable Coilovers,

Upgraded the interior to leather trim after my base broke on my original drivers seat,

Had a spoilerless bootlid sprayed and added a Ghia Garnish and Force Lip.

Had the diff strengthened and rebuild at Northern Differentials Cambpellfield with 3.73 Diff gears.

My plans:

Upgrade the dashboard and instrumentation to the high series sports dash (Dual Zone Climate)

Sunroof

Upgrade to a Typhoon motor with a decent tune

Upgrade the broken turbo to a gtx3582r

That is all I have planned at this stage but like most of us I will find something else to upgrade to :P

I have a few more pictures but I'll upload them when I get a bit more time.

Cheers, Mark

Thanks guys.

Henz - Tail lights are on the way but I didn't think it was a big or major mod to add in my starter post :icon_ford:

When I 1st got it I wasn't to phased by the colour but now that all my mates and members on the forums say they love the colour or say its the best colour It has grown on me and always get compliments for how clean it is for a 8 almost 9 year old car :spoton:

It does look in good nick for a BA makes me miss my old girl, and yeah blueprint was one of the nicest colours going around. Not as good as Venom stirthepot.gif but still one of my favs.
