  1. Two problems with your statement:

     

    1.No real mechanics work for Ford, they are all just apprentices and lube operators.  They do not know a gearstick from a dipstick.

     

    2. You mate is wrong, the F6 runs 9psi boost, not 14psi.

    okies, yeh he is like a first or second year apprentice, i'd say he was just misinformed

    what do they do if theres a problem none of the apprentices know how to fix?

  2. i talked to a mechanic today that works at ford, and he says the f6 has 14 psi stock, and strengthened internals

    but then you would think it would pull more than 270kw at engine with that much boost so i dunno

    but yeh now they've got the better gearbox they're a hsv killer

  3. just imported picked up my car about a week ago, and noticed the wheels are 18x9.5 on the back and 18x8.5 on the front

    now i know that it affects the attessa system somewhat, but it has the same tires on all round, and was wondering how much it makes a difference.

    also it has like a different smaller grey tag thing stuck with double sided tape, (the same that all aftermarket wheels have) which says 10 all round, wtf? why would they put that there?

  4. Kill,

    Congrats on getting the car mate. I just want to ask a few questions:

    Which line did you ship with

    Which port did you ship to

    Did you use a customs broker, if so, which one?

    Thanks mate,

    Richard

    thanks guys,

    i'm pretty sure i got one of the "other" lines, although there was a scrunched up kiwi sticker in the car

    i picked it up at rozelle, sydney

    i used cgl, and the only reason it turned out ok was that i rang him like everyday to get updates and what not

    we almost got knocked back from hobbs, because we only got the car there at 12, but i gave brendan a fifty and he did it like straight away.

    sorry to hear about ur wheels lucien, hopefully they turn up.

    there were like 4 r34 gtr's at the dock and man they were fat, one with harlequin paint, and some sort of rays wheels, but hobbs seemed to be overrun with supra's :uhh:

  5. Congrats...did the paint damage occur when the car was in storage ??

    You need to change your profile from "89 gtr soon" to "gtr=owned!!" :P

    i'd say it was damaged in storage, like parked under a tree with weird sap or something, but apart from that i love it, even the key is cool

  6. gtr=owned!!, picked it up from the docks today, and to my dismay the paint has shat itself in like 4 different places, and is safe to say it needs a respray(candy red here we come)

    the main thing i was worried about was things being stolen out of the car, but nothing gone so all good, even the remote for the stereo is still there.

  7. Pajero comes from a south american name for a ranch hand/cowboy. Only problem was when they released it in the North and Sth. American markets it quickly became apparent that the folks at Mitsubishi had not done their homework as it is also slang for Wanker! :(

    I bought one knowing this fact so had no excuse. :P

    Jackaroo -  Are you serious? :confused: It's an Aussie cowboy you city slicker, you know what John Howard tries to look like when he's touring the outback.

    i see, no i thought jackaroo supposed to have something to do with kangaroos, what the hells a jumbuck then? i'm not up on cleatus's dictionary
