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

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
