senator kinda looks like ass if you ask me. I'd buy a calais and bring in pontiac G8 kit from the US and slam it on 22's.

yeh i really dont rate fords i just dont like the look, spose its true what they say your a holden or a ford man. having said that i loved the BA its just the new range dont rate.

x5 is still an option but i think i will be bored driving it day to day.

interesting, I've always been ford, the BA was a welcome sight from the AU obviously (although I do rate the look of a TS50), but imo the FG is just another step up from the BA looks wise...the head and tail lights just seem to work perfectly, and the performance models can look off their dick.

in fact, buy my brothers car...power and luxury, just what you real estate types need

yeah FG's can look porn done right, the F6, black on black, ducktail spoiler... which is basically what my brothers G6ET is, XR6T with all the luxuries, ducktail spoiler and 19's...

VE's, not really a fan, but the high end ones like the GTS etc where the tail lights get changed, they can look alright

Ford high tech suspension:

vs

Holden high tech suspension:

VE has better suspension geometry, not something that looks like it belongs in a 67 mustang.

Dirty kents at Ford call it "Control Blade Independent Rear Suspension" and try and peddle it off as something good. fuck off with that neolithic cuntbaggery, two leprechauns swinging off my nuts will give me more stability than that shit.

lol @ Nissans being more high tech than both by 1989.

    • From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.
    • Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.  
    • I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
    • I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂
