Hey All,

Selling my 2004 Ford XR6 Turbo.

For Sale:

Colour: Mercury Silver

KM's: 79,XXX

Condition: Good

Location: Brisbane CBD

Phone: 0488 276 655 (Work 8-5, txt is easier for me)

Price: $24,500.

Car is a 2004 model, BA XR6 turbo. For those in the know, it comes with the 4 speed gearbox (AUTO). Its mechanically perfect, one or two small stone chips etc in the front bar as per usual. Also comes with premium sound, not leather.

Reason For Sale:

Just moved to Brisbane, want something a little smaller etc.

Engine Mods:

Nispro Valve Springs (installed 7000km ago)

Water Methanol Injection (snow performance)

Monza Intercooler

K&N Panel Filter

60 pound injectors

12psi turbo actuator

Other Mods:

Autometer Cobalt Gauges (Boost, Fuel Pres, Oil Pres) in center triple mount cup holder on dash.

Snow Performance Shift Light mounted on steering column.

18" XR8 Ute (I think) mags

Rear wing has been removed and centre brake light put in back window

CAPA Flash Tuner (comes with three tunes)

Currently running 315kw all day, every day.

Car has been run down the quarter twice, once on street tyres - 12.54 @ 118 and once on semi slicks - 12.04 @ 119. When the valve springs were installed, the turbo was quickly checked for play, absolutley perfect. If the car got some bigger intercooler & piping, it would look at pulling around the 340-360kw mark, but it was fast enough for me so..

Serviced every 3000-5000 with Castrol Edge Sport 10W-60.

Looking for straight sale, or swaps for S15's or S14A's ONLY with possible cash my way. No money owing on it, RWC to be supplied upon deposit.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
