2010 Ford Falcon XR6T

[01 VEY]

Both the first and second appeal to me but if I was buying I would opt fot the second ones

What are you going to do with the stock wheels and how much would you want if you were to sell them

[SecaBoy]

well, i've bought the first ones... fingers crossed they fit...

i measured, and its gonna be REAL close to the guards... may have to roll them.. :(

either way. the site reckons 2-5day delivery from the states... :D

hellaflush the falcoon... do it.

Is it too late to change my vote. The more I look at the first ones the better they seem to be.

Looking good.

[Andrew357]

Those will look good man.

[SecaBoy]

they're on back order... wont get them until september apparently.. :(

so much fail. :(

[SecaBoy]

got a price for some Federal 595s for the new rims... $180ea... fuqn rippa!! :D

in other news, i replaced the middle muffler with just straight pipe today... best $50 i've ever spent!!

seriously sounds soooo tough now!

the burble/popping on over run is making me change down gears just for fun now...

fuel economy has gone through the roof now though... :( haha

and now the 'wet fart' noise on gear changes has become a 'thunderous-scare-young-children-and-old-people wet fart' noise... :P so much win!! :D

bought an intercooler/intake kit today...

500x400x3.5 core size

2.5inch hot piping

3inch cold piping

4inch Intake System

Alloy Airbox

Factory Battery re-location

a bit pricey, but apparently its a good kit.

this is what it looks like:

gotta get it installed along with the injectors/exhaust and then tuned...

i read that it probably wont go over 300kw without valve springs and modifying the turbo (different actuator and porting the wastegate flap or something like that)...

if i hit 300kw at the wheels, i'll be stoked...

anything under 280kw and i'll be ****** off... :D

[Noodle Boy]

Nice investment. I like the xr6T the most out of the falcon range. Your car,though, is a beault.

[SecaBoy]

after talking with the guy i'm buying the fmic/intake from last night... i'm slightly horny... :P

he reckons he has tuned quite a few cars with the same mods as mine and they are getting between 330-350kw... :D :D :D

he also said to take the car to him in sydney and he'll tune it and throw in a e85 tune for free... long way to take a car for a tune though.. :(

Are there many Caltex or any other pumps that offer e85 out there in QLD? And did you ask him how much the system is valued?

[SecaBoy]

system valued? what do you mean?

i have a caltex with e85 about 2 mins drive from my house... ;)

[SecaBoy]

new rims arrived today... :D

hoping to get the tyres and put them on in the next couple of days...

pics to show dish with the standard unit of measurement:

[SecaBoy]

well, the new rims went on without any dramas... still have to put the centre caps on, but no scrubbing at all...

i hit a fair size bump on the way back to work and nothing...

time will tell once i have people in the rear though... i may have to pump the rear guards. :)

anyway... here's some pics until i get a chance to take some proper shots. :)

[T_Money]

[jeffy]

[DJKOR]

Now with extra touch of Bogan :P

[SecaBoy]

extra touch of bogan?

[DJKOR]

Sorry must just be the car in general come to think of it

Nice wheels though. Definitely looks the part.

[SecaBoy]

so what. now that trent has stopped ford bashing, you pick up where he left off?

[1stKill]

[DJKOR]

I'm just jealous of your ride... and dish.

what rubber you using?

They appear to be Federal 595SS.

[SecaBoy]

dont go putting these rims on your car again!!! hehehehe kidding!

i love them... the rear end could go a smidge lower, but maybe one day i'll put coilovers under her so i can get it sitting flatter. :)

no "SS"... i couldnt get them in the right size and load rating. :(

just the normal 595's... supposedly still a good tyre. :)

[1stKill]

No i won't be copying you this time,i did paint mine to be different :P

[SecaBoy]

hahaha. i dont care anyway...

share the love i say! if something looks good, go for it! :D

still love those buddy clubs... they look fantastic on the aurions! :D
