oh no big man i found that very offensive cause you think i look like you :banana:

yeh but my 13 year old japanese CAP looks and performs 10x better than your 2008 "refined" (cant stop laughing at that) falcon, thats hang on wait for it... built/desinged by a bunch of diploma engineers that rock up to work half pissed :D

but what would i know right...

What a f**ken riot !!!

I bet she is billy hairy all over her chest.

Can anyone say, VE door handles? Looks like ford went to Holden and brought them.

Ford Australia wanted to implement the falcon into the Ford global architecture so certain pattern cues were carried over from European Ford DNA , what they call it the " kinetic " design.

So the door handles are in fact the ones like on the Mondeo and not the VE.

Ahh finally the "Fairmont" turbo. I heard about these some time ago during a meeting with the state bosses here

From what i have been told the calder test days for the F6 have gone great, going to be much better around the track than the current ones

The model range looks great, finally a dash that doesn't look like its come from a cheap korean taxi

Orian....Aurion. You cant get 0-100km/h and 0-400m times out of power and torque figures. Look at the current GT, has 290kw and only does mid 14's if that.

actually in one of motor magazines tests they got the gt to do a high 13.

This one may be the pick of the range. Traditionally the Fairmont was the car for pensioners. But with a turbo motor Ford won't be able to go too soft. So you get the best motor they make in a reasonably well specced car without all the boy racer bullsh!t. Nice. Hope they price it well.

New XR6T looks like it'll get family car duties for me when me and the mrs settle down!

Sounds like a great car/package and looks pretty good, I think in the flesh would look better!

assyrian4evaa - you sir, need to open your eyes. You are as bad as the one minded bogans who bag out jap cars.

You obviously are not a car enthusiast.

well i guess you can get them on LPG from factory so that is their answer for that for now. and they are making them run leaner to get better economy, which is also why the power is increasing. i think it will all depend on what happens with the price of fuel in the future, and with ethanol.

u dont understand i am very open minded when it comes to cars atleast so dont just judge me from those few comments maybe if you heard about them as much as i have you'd be over them by now..

i like aussie cars and own 1myself but they just dont do it for me as much. i hope they sell really well because it keeps jobs around but we'll see how they go

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
