Obviously upgrade the 245s, and will be doing brembos / suspension down the track as well

don't they already have brembos

lol trust Ford to call a model the "Arse pick"

was talking to a mate at Ford, apparently they're just badging all the leftovers with special edition bits and flogging em off so they can make room for the new model next year.

yeah my brother got a BF MKII ute from auctions (old boss repaired it) and was badged as a ripcurl edition

the only thing was they had put like wetsuit seat covers in and sold it for an extra $3.5k from new

The joys of marketing...

Not sure, was a plumbers van, I haven't read the article but I'm guessing something was in the van.

A MFB spokesman said the incident appeared to be caused by an oxy-acetylene leak, a highly flammable gas commonly used by plumbers and refrigeration mechanics.

Edited by blah_blah

Most likely there aren't any ventilation boxes in the van.

To transport a oxy-acetylene tank, you need ventilation should it be secured inside a van, otherwise the pressure inside expands and combine it with heat, ignition of any shape or form, you'll get this.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
