I dont think the front bar blends well with the lines of the car.

Cant tell if its just that photo of it, but seems to lack any fine detail on the front bar?

What kind of fine details would you like to see?

It's an aero package for racing, looks smooth and slick.. as it should.

I'm sure they'll have some bling on the road car.

Based on the 290kW, 520Nm 5.4-litre Boss 290 V8-powered Ford XR8 road-going sedan, the new FG-01 will be displayed on pit lane throughout the race and then take to the track for the assembled fans to witness its maiden run

Hahaha Thats a laugh...yeah the body shell was made in the same factory and it has 4 wheels...thats the only thing they have in common

I think they meant thats what it's styled to be like, the color, bonnet, headlights ect...it's meant to look like a race going xr8 (good marketing)

As oppossed to being built from an xr8.

But hey I could be completely off track :cheers:

I think its just a Typical motoring journo having NFI what there talking about. bit like Ch10 claiming that the V8s had 750hp and that the LS1 in the Brute series was a 350 Chev.

IMO its should have read "Based on the FG falcon" with out mentioning the Donk because it makes it sound like the V8SC is running the 32V 5.4 and not a 302 Windsor.

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
