so many ford fans in here ,funny that asoon as the xr6t came into place that alot of them became sau members mmmm i have a turbo so ill become a sau member. there not quick and dont matter how much power it pulls u still have to get that fat arse moven.why the 34 a realy good r32 say for 20 grand with f all mods piss the 40-50 grand straight off its seat and its alot older and better looking ,not to mention that it has only taken ford this long to get where it is now maybe in 10-20 years they will be up in performance

Yeah. I love the look of the GT. sexy beast. As long as you have the power to match which you do.

Isnt it funny that you try and be civil on these forums but other users have got nothing nice to say.Were i come from other forums execpt other makes of cars.

Vuster ,Nice ride mate and i guess these other guys here dont like to extend there gratitude for your ride and advice even if were from the"dark side"

Actually Vuster has quite a good thread going discussing how his beast would run against some skylines.

Generally if you have an open mind then you get the same response from us.

Myself I quite like the xr6-ts and I know a bit about them as my mate with one won't shut up about it. He did a deal with MRT to be a guinea pig for their edit testing and is making 225rwkw.

6 speed with Triple plate clutch.There is another car with the same power and its an auto.

Im running auto tranny in mine and its at its limits of durability.I have a shift module and tranny cooler on it to prolong the life.You can get auto rebuilds for about 4k but i can do better.

The autos with power upgrade pull better 1/4 mile times than most manuals.The quickest XR6T with 360rwkw ran a 10.98 with racing slicks and auto.

Has not run it yet but both cars are hoping 9 sec passes thats if they dont rip the arse end out.The manaul will have a hard time getting it down over the auto.

Both cars are drivin every day on the street and are not tubbed or anything for drags.They will be runnig slicks thou.

What had to be done to the 600kw car??

I don't know how he could drive a 600kw car around without taking it to the drags yet... Tell him to hurry up... :(

40-50 grand for the stock rock, 4-5 grand for trans, 7-10 grand motor , if your running 9s its a full rollcage ,2grand 4 slicks ,now we r talking some bigg dollars ,congrats to its owner and his pocket 90,000 + for nine sec hehe thats not bad lol tell me why r u guys in this forum (realy) if it is to stir shit your in the wrong bowl .

$$$$$

No where near as much as my mates 32gtr that has gone through about 5 motor and different turbo applications to achieve a low 10 sec pass.

Spend 5k on an XR6T and you could run 10 sec pass.

380rwkw

Auto

Diff gears

slicks

=10 sec pass

i spent 2 k on mine to achieve from 195rwkw to 300rwkw.

Also to the arguement that they are no good at track work,If you seen one set with the right springs and a manual trans and good driver they can mix it with most cars.

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
