Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)

Hmmmm thats weird because we were asked last week to organise a cruise by the owner of nando's for this Anzac day .... with approval from centre management (the owner of nandos drives a RX7 series 8) :

lol good luck on the cruise we did a small cruise anzac day last yr. didnt see a single cop the whole drive but forgot to plan ahead...and got stuck at 3 lots of anzac parades.

most of which we found our way around. 1 we had to wait out (not too bad). but having said that we only had 7 cars

*carseldine was fine on thursday night...other than it being the start of the uber long weekend and very little parking to be found anywhere. (didnt head underneath). and it took me almost 10 mins to get off the road and into a park

Its usually the bonnet release lever that snaps off the fuse box. Is the fuse box where the bonnet release mounts to it damaged at all? Its a common problem with BA/BF falcons for them to snap. I have changed a few of the bonnet releases over. You need to change the whole cable over with it. Absolute prick of a job to do.

Yep the latch has snapped off the fuse box, looks like the mounts are destroyed as well. A friend of mine took his to ford and got it replaced under warranty, they pulled the entire fuse box out and swapped it with one that had metal on the bonnet release instead of plastic like mine.

Do you know if I would be able to get a bf fuse box and swap em over easily or is it a bitch of a job?

anyone else keen for this cruise on the 25th?

might see if I can get an evening pass out and go for a drive

Fuse box is pretty easy to do from what i remember. The only pain in the arse bit is getting the wire bit of the bonnet release to pull through. When removing it you will need to drop the wheel arch liner out makes the job a bit easier. If you have mud flaps you will have great troubles getting the clips out. You shouldn't have any troubles getting a fusebox. I am not 100% sure but i think BA/BF fuse boxes are the same

I'm doing up a pro/con list of FF vs FR. Anyone care to contribute? If I do it on my own I might be subconciously too bias.

What do you want to know?

[-Boz-]

What point of view are you looking at the question from? Driver? Manufacturer? Mechanical issues/reliability? Why no AWD being considered?

For example, a major pro of FF cars is the lower cost of production. This isn't much of a bonus to a driver however (unless you count purchase price into the enjoyment factor.)

[Nee-san]

In the end it comes down to your traction circle and the physical limits you can take your friction surfaces to (tyres).

Carroll Smith Has a fairly good entry level explanation of this in one of his books, tune to win I think is the one.

[Isola]

For driving/performance aspects, sorry.

[SABBAi]

What are we comparing? stock vs. stock, low powered, hi powered? time attack or street. All can be/are different.
