Incident On Thursday Night Regarding New Turbo Laws


Recommended Posts

Lol i only do old school fords. I work in the service department of a ford dealer and it was comparable to getting stabbed in the eye with a toothpick constantly. Fords are not i repeat not awesome

There a couple blokes on this board that will strongly disagree with that.

did u get an apology?

at least she rang you back and admitted she was wrong

I didnt exactly get an apology would of liked a proper apology but she admitted to making the mistake but i still dont understand why she would not let me drive home even though she was not 100percent sure that i was under the new laws!!

F6, win. G6e turbo, win. Passanger stuff like diesel mondeo, win. Im simply scarred for life by transits, au's, territory's and bogans that think there ford is simply the best car ever made and cant work out why is it breaking all the time?

FG's are decent, (i was actually a Service Advisor at a Ford dealership). The trans is what does it for them, the ZF 6 speed and the 5 speed in the FG are awesome, but anything BF (without the ZF) and earlier would truly struggle.

BA 4 Speed with CAI, Exhaust and tune.

Fords aren't slow.

My 5 Speed ute Pulled 170rwkw with minimal work, taken down a skyline or 2

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
