SliM Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Just curious............we always see our jap cars done up but you dont ever see the old Ford Falcon done up. Why is that?? i under the impression that becoz aussie "blokes" buy them it like they dont wanna go under the "wog" impression by touching up their car. Reckn i am wrong and there is something else behind it. Also i own a Ford Falcon BA model 2004, wondering how it would respond to a putting on minor mods like a bigger exhaust, maybe lowering for better turning coz it is a sedan so it is fairly high up and stuff.it says on the Ford site it is mean to have like 182kw of power.......does it respond as well to performance upgrades as other cars. Lets discuss this !!! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/69119-why-not-a-ford/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 You have obviously never been to a Ford or Holden "show 'n shine". In Vic we have a Ford day, at Geelong, with so many restored/modified Fords you don't have enough time to see them all. There is as much modified Fords as there is modified Skylines. If you want to discuss Ford modifications i suggest you jump on www.fordmods.com or any other FPV site.

Kel Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 My dad is the ford mod king (must be where I got it from- just lost in translation). As everyone has said, they're out there- you just need to know where to look.

krzysiu Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Doing up the new fords is even better. Seeing a Blue XR6 Turbo with a huge front mount going by with a Jap Spec exaust with the Pshhh of the BOV is just nice Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/69119-why-not-a-ford/#findComment-1279966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJR 34GTT Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Theres a lightly modded BA XT going around Canberra that has managed to crack 200rwkw with just some basic mods like exhuast, headers etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/69119-why-not-a-ford/#findComment-1280024 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 4 Door Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Being a 2004 model just remember, when you carry out any mods to your car it voids your new car warranty in more ways than one. I should know I work at Ford. If something even remotely related to the part you have modified breaks you will not be covered by warranty. I do feel sorry for those guys with XR8's, XR6/T, GT/P, F6 for being restricted during the 3 years of new car warranty of not being able to carry out mods if they want a warranty. It sucks. Good luck with your BA though, just a thought for you to consider.
