FG F6's are going pretty cheap these days :D

I plan on picking up a second hand FG, maybe not a F6, as my next car in a few years. The value of falcons goes to shit quickly, but its great for second hand buyers.

Well you can pick an F6 up for around 50 these days. While yes, the value of them drops to shit after a few years the original 03/04 XR6T's can still be sold for around 18,19k provided they've been treated right. Typhoons are still around the 30 - 40s mark for a well treated one as well. The performance models seem to hold value a bit easier.

FG XR6T is actually quicker than the F6 is anyway!

ahh yer i know it. Company policy does not allow us to take one to the shops for lunchs and what not, every km must be accounted for on them unfortunently. Plus the customers don't like it.

pfft how easy is it to account for the kms though. Oh yeah there was a noise coming from the muffler bearings so we had to take it for a road test. So that's where the extra 1200kms came from :thumbsup:

If I was going to buy a ford I'd probably be looking at one of the new Focus Rs models. They should depreciate nicely in the next few years and they'd be a stupidly fun car for day to day stuff. Either that or one of the new Falcons with the 5l coyote engine :worship:

Oh and Morning Mangs.

221kw and 400nm through the front wheels lol. Apparently the tricky diff eliminates torque steer very well. Would love to have a go in one.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!

Love the add. "no rust". That thing had rust hanging out of it at the last dyno day I saw you at. Time doesn't heal all wounds especially rusty wounds!

Lol. Somebody broke the internet. And everything else. No one can do any work. Oh well, I'll bum on the interwebs on my phone.

@Colin: some surface rust, and a bubble or two on the bonnet from memory. Nothing too bad.

P.s. how do you quote/multiquote on mobile sau?

we cut all the rust out when we removed the rear section, from memory the top of the rear screen was starting to get some surface rust.

Mangs

work sucks. forcing me to do some actual work lately. not impressed. as a result, looking for another job. I feel I should be able to get away with an hour worth of honest work in a day if working for government. I actually had to put in a good 5 hours worth of work today....

    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu? 
    • Yeah thats the plan now. 🤞
    • Have a chat with the tuner, you'd want to drive the car straight there.
