  1. This sports verison takes about 600kg in the bed and tows up to 2000kg i think.
  2. http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/Stazza_Brendan/xrlow7.jpg http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/Stazza_Brendan/xrlow6.jpg http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/Stazza_Brendan/xrlow5.jpg http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu98/Stazza_Brendan/xrlow4.jpg
  3. LSD - check 600kg payload (only cos mines xr model) and 2000kg towing capacity - check I cant see your point of view.
  4. I prefer the BF series http://wasuspensions.com.au/gallery/cache/ford/SAM_0160.JPG_600.jpg Cant argue with the Fords driveline though.
  5. You guys would rather the Ford FPV F6 ute. Or the FPV GS Ute. Turbo straight 6 or supercharged V8
  6. Hide and seek champion. 2001 - 2011
  7. Ive only heard bad things from people seeing it here.

  9. Money was in my paypal shortly after I sent my details.
  10. Paypal details have been sent to Speedy.
  11. Was thinking this also. Get the details up ASAP Tom. Im sure alot of people can spare a few bucks to help someone in need.
  12. Put a bigger cooler kit and piping on it. Goes on dyno tomorrow. http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6cooler1.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6cooler2.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6coolersetup.jpg Alot bigger then the stock cooler http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/coolercompare.jpg
  13. That car is running more boost and an exhaust. Mines stock for now apart from airbox and removed BOV. In car mine sounds like this , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4WmIw8Jze8&feature=related Outside sounds like , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8lSNRfYeNY&feature=related Not that exciting, but the stock system is very restrictive. Hoping to go for twin 2.5inch and a large cat converter. Tried a pod filter on it for a laugh yesterday, intake and flutter noise sounded great, but way to much heat in engine bay for a pod so its back to how it was.
  14. There is a manual version. Uses the T56 box. But the 6spd Auto is way more desirable.
  15. This and the sedan version are a modern day cult car. Theres no other new full size sedan available here with a large capacity turbo motor. Last car that had that was the Holden VL Turbo from the late 80's and thats a cult car. Appart from the XR6, V8 Holden Commodores, Japanese imports (Supra, Silvia, Skyline etc) and minitrucks. This car was looked into being ported to LHD but apparantly it was viable. Motor probably wouldnt meet your emission standards anyway. Here is what the top of the line FPV (Ford Performance Vehicles) sedan model of my car looks like. http://p.webwombat.com.au/motoring/images/fpv-f6-typoon-r-spec-1-big.jpg
  16. It came tiem for a new daily. The little truck was good, but no creature comforts at all and limited highway ability was its let down. So i bought a 2007 Ford XR6 Turbo Ute. Has a 4L DOHC, Straight 6 motor, VCT on both cams and a Garrett 3045 ball bearing turbo. In factory trim makes 340hp at the flywheel and 354ft-lbs of torque at only 2000rpm with only 5psi blowing through it. With basic bolt ons and tune they make 400hp at the wheels easily. I bought the 6speed sequential auto model. http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6bris1.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6bris4.jpg Very overcast, makes the colour look very different. http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/Ute1.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/Ute2.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/Ute3.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/Ute4.jpg Engine bay http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/XR6motor.jpg Interior http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6bris2.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/xr6bris3.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/dashnight.jpg http://sigmaman87.cruisingmackay.com/XR6T/consolenight.jpg Has 6 stacker cd player, dual zone climate control, bluetooth for phone. At the moment the only mods are second intake snorkel for the airbox and a replacement panel filter. Plan is to change exhaust, put intercooler kit on (on order) and tune it for some more boost. Nice daily driver
  17. http://www.sigma-galant.com/index.php Should be a few people on this site that run very similar setups to you. we never had factory turbo 2.6 in Australia, closest we got was a suck-through carby turbo 4G52. P.S grab the microtech and throw it in the bin (personal hate towards microtech)
  18. BrazzaBoy would be more acceptable
  19. Your doing it all wrong, They dont roll off the tongue as well as Dazza or Bazza. Therefore they are banned from use. Its an Australian law.
  20. Probably Australians. 1. We shorten every word we can 2. to make it sound "stralian" Names are always converted to have "azza" on the end where ever possible. Examples. Darren - Dazza Barry - Bazza Warrick - Wazza Sharon - Shazza
  21. 87 injectors are the same as 88/89 arnt they. The 85 model in Aus (referred to the model code JB Starion) needs the 2 x 850cc injectors. Redzone will be able to clear all of this up as he has dealed with this before if i recall right. My opinion is bin it all and go MPI
  22. Dont know if you have found the answer yet, found this thread doing a search, the Aussie 85 model injectors are the same as 86/87 injectors. My brother has an 85 we are putting new injectors in eventually and according to others (redzone can confirm) people have bought new 87 style injectors from USA to put in 85 model Starions in Australia.
  23. 2L Auto Mitsubishi Sigma beater/parts car on my dads farm when i was about 12. Coincidentally my first car was exactly the same, same model, same colour, same motor/trans combo.
  24. Also if you get a 32 (preferably GTR) i demand its painted in this colour scheme. This is the car that got the Skyline its Godzilla tag. The groupA GTR that raced in Australia touring car championship. http://oneofftees.com/zencartPGFX/images/Winfield.jpg
  25. GTR or only GTST? Looking at the pic it doesnt seem to have the larger pumped gaurds of the GTR. R32 GTST are hopeless stock and still quite hopeless when modified if you keep the RB20 motor. They need to be boosted to get anywhere. Over here they get used as drift hacks quite a bit and theres a tonne of R32 in Australia so its another source of parts if you do decide to buy it. Only R32 series car worth owning is the GTR or the factory special models (V-spec etc). GTST - GTR , Chalk - Cheese.
