Ford certainly did the falcon a big favour bringing out the turbo model.

caugh caugh 2 forced induction falcons at the top (gt 335)( f6310) how else would u want it :cheers: supercharged 5.0 all alloy beaudiful less than 3k in mods are netting close to 90rwkw gains and bulk torque and to think these will be worth sub 40k in a short few years 12 sec 1/4ers are nice STOCK

and this was way back when

Hey can't argue with the old GT's - play that card and it's always going to be a winner in your Ford and Holden debates.

I was more so implying the 6T is an absolute winner for the falcon in a sense of that 20 odd year gap between the time of those said GTs models you hint about above, and early 2000's... The falcon wasn't exactly too much of an appealing model to performance enthusiasts (...V8 supercar fans aside!).

And I don't know much about the very latest models, but weren't the top of the line 6T's (f6/typhoon etc) quicker than the V8s?

Jet that was done on a Disney Dyno and for some reason (Fords moreso than Skylines) tend to read a shit load of power more on D & D's for some reason....Skylines also read a little more but not as much.

As for the Blown GT 335, when it goes down to $35K, I'm getting one!!

Correct.....and still are

i reckn i nearly got the d/d debate sorted pete yes there terriable with accurate numbers moreso with the ford , i reckn and this is just me, the older 2wd d/d's that have had some years of work blow out with big torque cars that come on earlie , but the 4wd d/d's seems to hold a decent life span acuracy wise ............................any mainlie seems to be a winner regardless of age. ive just been having a look at what alot of ppl are saying across many forums and it does seem to be a common theme n/a cars seem to have the least problems on any dyno. but ill do my head in trying to work it out :teehee: yeh the new gt has a fairly consistant 300rwkw stock on any dyno still great numbers and 114mph is the biscuit right there ......................."Dyno figures make for good conversation, mph at the strip proves it without reservation" ............:cheers:

yeh the b series turbo single handedly saved ford aust no doubt

i was being serious lol if the b series never came out i really doubt we would have a need for ford aust

skyline humm driven heaps every other mate has one but no never owned one looked very seriously at a R34 GTR b4 buying the f6 but just to small cabin wise and for some reason every GTR owner is broke haha, i can see something comming up soon hence the stalking on here just checking some bits out

Ahh nice! Well you obviously love power judging by your sigs; if you do end up landing one I doubt it would be tame machine...

OT wise, much respect for the 6T though. My brother in law had one, and that's the only car that scared the living shit out of me! Insane power

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
