Have never owned anything that put a smile on my face as big as that car did and didnt think id be back in another one anytime soon. The new car isnt quite the in your face cant miss it typhoon ol yella was......until you look closer. 127/300 was the first badge that caught my eye... I have officially joined the one club I never thought id be a part of.

Hopefully no issues getting it registered if it needs an inspection. Only posted a single thread about it as well! edit: plate seems to be F6RSPEC from WA, swear I've seen this car cruising around Perth before.

Box stock T. Member 1,384 Member For: 10y 11d Posted 03/08/16 07:22 AM Share Posted 03/08/16 07:22 AM Yep limited edition run of 300 the old RSpec's. It also looks like the set up that Nizpro was using to export to the UK a few years ago. I read your thread about old yella. And great to see ya back in the saddle again mate.

Had dyno sheet sent to me 489.5kw 1213 nm Can not believe you can get a car this big to accelerate that fast. It is ridiculous fun. Only issue was standard flywheel bolts came loose so figured might as well put the Mal Wood opt5 twin plate clutch and gmmotorsport ripshift in. Clutch and lightweight billet flywheel have made noticeably difference. Mal wood vs mantic mantic on the left Mal wood on the right. Need to give it a real good wash and I put up some pic's Only negative and um taking the piss a bit when I say the leather seats are bloody cold in the mornings. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92247-my-new-r-spec/#findComment-1607971 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very easy to tweak those plates if the plate/box alignment isn't 100% and you'll wind up with shifts issues.
