what do you guys think of a '94 EL Falcon

one of my friends just got one

check this: 11 years old, about 160 000km on clock

clean as a whistle, not a drop o oil on engine anywere

he only has a small leak in the master cylinder

he got a fairly new straight through cat back exhaust from an EB put on

new seals and gaskets

extractors are in the pipeline :aroused:

this thing goes like a rocket :flamed: :kick:

(good old straight 6 4litre)

how much would u expect 2 pay for something like that

i dont know how much he got it for, but i know it was a very good price

yea i know there not as good as a skyline

hell, it has to be compared to something (ie if that goes like a rocket, than just imagine what a skyline would be classed as...i can see it know: 'skyline travels in hyperspace: edge of galaxy reached')

A 94 model wouldn't be an EL, more likely an EF series 1.

it is a late model 94 and if i remember rightly the last 94's were EL's

(look i could be wrong too, it could be an early 95, but i hope not :wassup: :Oops: )

Its a falcon... Do you think this topic is fit for these forums...

Unless you are planning on buying one to drop an Rb26 into it and making a fully sick sedan. I suggest the ford forums... Although if you started this topic for us to pay out on falcons then thats ok too...

If you gonna use it as a daily driver, i'll consider other options with smaller engines , like a 91-96 1.5-1.6 Honda Civic's for the price of $5-6k (something not so heavy on fuel)

second hand/Old well EX-Taxi's wif LPG conversions can be bought for around the $4k but dunno if its like the 2nd or 3rd engine in the car! hahah

good luck either way

Late '94 is the start of EF series 1 and the end of ED series 2's (boxy shape)

I think both had the 4.0ltr inline 6

The EF and EL had a similar shape (like the VR - VS, and VT - VX commodores) and the only differences were the wheels, different badging, and slightly different interiors.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
