K&N pod with heat sheild

Ajustable Shiftkit

2.5" Cat-back with highflow cat (mandrel bends)

Advance headers

J3

18" Speedy Graphites

Tickford kit

Lowered on KYB's and kingy's (on stock springs atm)

I love the xr/fairmont combo i think they look sick nice ef man,

 

One thing i think you may or may not like is the spoiler on the back, i hated mine and pulled it off as soon as i got the car home hahaha

 

One thing i would strongly advise doing is manwell convert it, cause you wont look back, i never did and everybody i've spoken too has said that after converting them, there a completly different/better car, as with anything though haha

 

If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for it

[JiP]

Most unusual place for a photo shoot I must say lOl

[Des]

I like.

[Tume]

Agree with JiP why a cemetery? Lol, otherwise it looks quite nice mate!

[Rich_Rolla]

Paid 6k. Cemetery...dunno was just driving past and my mate wanted to try out his new camera phone.

 

I've been considering a manny conversion. Will decide in the new year as I'm on the verge of selling up and buying a 34 or a XR6T. Projects start to shit you like that.

 

It also got ass ended a few days ago...nothing major but still irritating as now it has to go in and get a new rear bar, lip, and exhaust fixed. Upside is that the towbar will come off and there will be no hole and a fresh paint job.

[!!!! ToyRotor!!!!]

what do you think of the ef typhoon kit? :D

[orangeLJ]

^WTF??

 

going to need a fair bit of weight reduction or a shipload more power to crack a 13 with 1600kgs, not impossible but definitely a challenge with a N/A six.

 

Id say 300-350hp would do it, (real world horsepower)

 

That said, I love straight sixes (biased towards red over blue though) and N/A ones even more :)

[Rich_Rolla]

Wtf is with the HID post?

 

I sold this a fair while ago. Regret it now. It never reached the drags. I bought a BA XR6 Manul ute which I managed to pull a high 13 in with under 3k worth of mods.

 

Sold it and driving an Astra atm hahaha. Saving for a house but am looking for some sort of RWD rolling shell.

Some exotic kind of spambot that tries to look relevant to the target audience. Clever but still a miserable failure.
