Amazing.... Absolutely amazing.

Anyone care to point out that most land-barge soccer-mum 4x4s can do 200k/hour? Given that 4x4s are generally unsafe at anything above a stand still (and even then its a close call), that would make them sort of super-mega-death-killing-weapons-of-mass-destruction-vehicle-of-infinite-justice-and-death ...

Ban 4x4s long before banning "performance" cars.

Strange how a car that handles better, stops better and is safer at high speeds (which obviously means safer at road legal speeds too) is somehow considered "dangerous", yet these monstrosities that are likely to roll over and cause permanent disabilities, if not death, at even 12k/hour are trusted to women with no fscking driving ability or situational awareness who then stuff them full of kids and head off to soccer.

So frustratingly stupid. Gimme 10 mins of air time and I'll rant. Like that dude in the emoticon: :(

OMG

Ford :whackit:

Holden :whackit:

The Courier Mail :headshot:

That article is bs

if nissan releases another supercar it could mean the end of the world

Press Release

The Courier mail

Nissan releases a Supercar with the Thrust to push the earth off its axis around the sun.

FFS if somebody buys the ford and drives it that fast for it to be a danger i hope they crash it into the courier mail office so they then really have an interesting story fill thier blank pages.

storys like this and p plate driver storys piss me off if the drivers stupidity results in accidents then its thier fault for doing so

You cannot stop stupidity...........

sorry i get carried away

electronic speadd limiters to 180km/h I say...same as our cars...
Heh, yeah that's always a good one to hit "them" with. My MegaDangerous import is speed limited to 180kmh but your taxipak falcon can go faster with skinny sh1t tires and coffee tin lids for brakes. I have as many brake slave cyls in one front caliper than your forden falcadore has for all four wheels...

Don't the AU falcon and later have 180km/hr limiters on them?

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
