so many ford fans in here ,funny that asoon as the xr6t came into place that alot of them became sau members mmmm i have a turbo so ill become a sau member. there not quick and dont matter how much power it pulls u still have to get that fat arse moven.why the 34 a realy good r32 say for 20 grand with f all mods piss the 40-50 grand straight off its seat and its alot older and better looking ,not to mention that it has only taken ford this long to get where it is now maybe in 10-20 years they will be up in performance

Yeah. I love the look of the GT. sexy beast. As long as you have the power to match which you do.

Isnt it funny that you try and be civil on these forums but other users have got nothing nice to say.Were i come from other forums execpt other makes of cars.

Vuster ,Nice ride mate and i guess these other guys here dont like to extend there gratitude for your ride and advice even if were from the"dark side"

Actually Vuster has quite a good thread going discussing how his beast would run against some skylines.

Generally if you have an open mind then you get the same response from us.

Myself I quite like the xr6-ts and I know a bit about them as my mate with one won't shut up about it. He did a deal with MRT to be a guinea pig for their edit testing and is making 225rwkw.

6 speed with Triple plate clutch.There is another car with the same power and its an auto.

Im running auto tranny in mine and its at its limits of durability.I have a shift module and tranny cooler on it to prolong the life.You can get auto rebuilds for about 4k but i can do better.

The autos with power upgrade pull better 1/4 mile times than most manuals.The quickest XR6T with 360rwkw ran a 10.98 with racing slicks and auto.

Has not run it yet but both cars are hoping 9 sec passes thats if they dont rip the arse end out.The manaul will have a hard time getting it down over the auto.

Both cars are drivin every day on the street and are not tubbed or anything for drags.They will be runnig slicks thou.

What had to be done to the 600kw car??

I don't know how he could drive a 600kw car around without taking it to the drags yet... Tell him to hurry up... :(

40-50 grand for the stock rock, 4-5 grand for trans, 7-10 grand motor , if your running 9s its a full rollcage ,2grand 4 slicks ,now we r talking some bigg dollars ,congrats to its owner and his pocket 90,000 + for nine sec hehe thats not bad lol tell me why r u guys in this forum (realy) if it is to stir shit your in the wrong bowl .

$$$$$

No where near as much as my mates 32gtr that has gone through about 5 motor and different turbo applications to achieve a low 10 sec pass.

Spend 5k on an XR6T and you could run 10 sec pass.

380rwkw

Auto

Diff gears

slicks

=10 sec pass

i spent 2 k on mine to achieve from 195rwkw to 300rwkw.

Also to the arguement that they are no good at track work,If you seen one set with the right springs and a manual trans and good driver they can mix it with most cars.

    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40

    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
