Nice colour choice!

Was that your licence plates? Can't remember if I saw a car for sale with those plates on that ford xr6t stuff for sale (facesux page)....but was way more modified before.

External grand cooler? Is it the good PWR one (I.e. same functions as OEM) or one of the cheaper kits (oil to air I think its called?).

Spring choice is personal....some like SSL all round and others like SSL Front/ SSSL Rear....these are sensible heights. Its a weird one though....cause a lot of cars looked levelled out with just SSL all round...but then others need the SSSL rears to remove the forward rake. 'Springs only' will apparently accelerate the killing of your OEM shocks though.

Yeah have a look cause there is 2 main types of trans coolers....if you see a big silver box to the left hand side of transmission...then you have the good one (mimics OEM functionaility...but much better build quality). The other type is like a bar plate thingy (oil to air which I assume means the air cools down the core which is full of fluid - still a noob with most things lol).

Kings + monroes is apparently slightly better than OEM. If you have the coin pay the extra for bilsteins or koni reds...but theres a couple people on here who said the monroes are ok (Bellato I think was one?).

And I changed mine to earls turbo line....I've done 50,000kms since owning and no blown turbo yet lol (130k kms 2008 model)

Nice buy........ congrats

Just for peace of mind - rip the oil screen out and fit a braided line and filter to the turbo and make it a habit to clean the filter every time you do an oil change
