["Captain Retard"]

G'day, I'm pretty new too.

Great forum, one of the best!

Good to see you've come over from the "dark side".

This forum is an info gold mine for these cars.

Good straight answers( usually) unless you ask about "cop chips" or "dose" then all hell breaks loose!

Hi guys. Firstly, im absolutely stoked at joining the family. What a gold mine of info. Purchased myself an 09 FG XR6T, Nitro blue.... Damn it gives me a fizzing sensation every time I jump in it. Im learning heaps from all the other members and im glad im not the only nut out there who is obsessed with his/her car lol. Cant wait to start working on her. Previously had an 05 BA XR6 mkii N/A and jeez can I feel the step up. One thing I love about this place is you are able to liaise and share info maturely. From what I see, whether you are an expert or novice, everything seems to run with mutual respect for one another. A big plus in my eyes.

Great color choice mate

I almost choked when you said "maturity"

Nice colour choice Nitro, my wife's car is an 08 FG XR6T ZF in Nitro.

And yeah they are great to drive, love em!

Welcome Venum! As long as you know how to use the search function thoroughly before posting a new thread about something that's been discussed many times before then you'll be fine and your questions will be met with somewhat mature responses...generally depends on whether some of us are having a bit of a slow/boring day or not though haha.

Also, forum rules, pics or didn't happen!

Thanks guys

I love the colour, really stands out. Ill be giving it a nice wash, polish and wax today and hopefully get the picture up. Uber excited.

Its a ZF Matty. Manual was preferable but just couldnt find anything in the colour and price range, but hey, I aint complaining lol.

Pixy Angel, home is Vic, where the weather is sh*te one day and even worse the next lol. Dont worry mate, got the next few days off so ill definitely be subscribing and ordering some merchandise too. You can have it all, even the mortgage, but the car stays lol. Iam looking at mods (search tool came in handy Stripes), alot of diverse opinions and options im considering. But brakes are a priority. Ive noticed it pretty much from the get go

Hey guys just signed up as I scored an 03 xr6t today. I live on the central coast nsw. Not much of a forum poster but don't mind reading them. Hope to eventually head to one of your outings/cruise to meet & check out other cars in this group.

Been a long time lover of anything ford & spent quite a few years driving turbo lasers around but have had quite a few fords over the years.

Cheers

Geoff
