So I have just finished reading some argument between some APS & CNC guys on a thread somewhere around here....and I have no bloody idea what they are talking about. :(

Accordingly, I thought I would nominate the top 10 mods I have had done to my XR6-T, and see if others have done the same or not :

1) Driver's side weather shield

2) Genuine XR6 floor mats

3) Baby chuck on the back of front passenger seat

4) Fixed E-Tag to front windscreen

5) Passenger's side weather shield for aerodynamics (see 1.)

6) Air in the tyres

7) Regular Unleaded fuel for approx 2000kms in place of Premium (let's see some of the serious revheads try that one)

Sorry boys, haven't made it to 10....I'm just too conservative. But if anyone needs help in performing the above mods, only too willing to offer advice.

Hey Gaza,

Nail it with the standard unleaded for a bit longer and you'll see the other two mods.

8. Engine and turbine wheel bits rattling in the exhaust

and

9. Brown stripes on driver seat thinking about bill for #8

8). Installed Baby seat

Don't know if I can try some of the others...if I try the white paint on the letters, will it effect the wheel balancing if I go outside the lines ???

Scared to try the Towbar as I am concerned that the extra weight will cause front of car to lift up off the road.

Gaza,

I tried the colour in white option on my tyres and unfortunately its true. I needed a wheel alignment cause I went out of the lines on the left wheels only. Solution drove with the windows down on the right hand side to compensate.

With the towbar addition maybe you should consider tinting the front windscreen and or deflating the front tyres a bit and inflating the rears to 60psi. To help shift the weight back :blink:
