ChilliDude911 New Member 4 Member For: 4y 9m 21d Posted 19/05/20 07:34 AM Share Posted 19/05/20 07:34 AM (edited) Hi all, Just joined the site as I have bought an Ex NSW Police 2016 FGX Ford Falcon XR6 Turbo. I am trying to find out the exact modifications the Police make to the vehicles. I found the link which basically notes some of the mod's. https://www.australianpolice.com.au/police-car-index/ The Bembo brake upgrade is obvious, but it also states "Modified Suspension"? does anyone know the exact changes? Also when checking for any fault codes I noticed an additional plug, making me think it was for a tune modification? as the cars performance is great. I contacted the NSW Police Service directly, and they gave me the link to make an application to access the information regarding my vehicle. But of cause this is at a cost. If anyone has gone down this path and has the info, will help me out heaps. Thanks in advance. Edited 19/05/20 07:35 AM by ChilliDude911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did this to my ex-HWP years ago but I can't remember wher I saved the info. There is are performance extras with these cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
