Boosted Falcon

hi guys, just really not sure what to do with the car, so wondering which option i should take?

I reckon bolt Brocky's nitrous kit on and go for low 8's

Sell it to me as is for $5000!!

Not!!!!! Leave the fkn thing.. It's sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS sell the whole car, it will take a while to find the right buyer to pay what it's worth, people that have the money to buy the setup will probably have the money to buy the whole car, and would probably prefer to buy it fully setup.

Pretty much have 0% chance of selling it whole and getting a reasonable amount for it I reckon.

i love the car but its going to be sad to let it go. thats why i thought just going N/A... but knowing me id build it up again i few years time lol so maybe just sell it as is an buy a small car.

is 30k(as is) too much?

I think you've put too much time and effort into It to give up now, if you sell it/ change it you'll regret it. Keep it and keep going quicker, you'd be much better off.

$30k for consistant 9's seems pretty good?

To the right person, no.

The amount of bucks in this car is clearly evident and it would be a bargain to the right person at that price.

But realistically, how many people are going to be willing to actually go through with a purchase at that level for an EL?

Nah thats not too much, but I don't think there would be many people around with that cash for an E-series.

Could be totally wrong tho. Hope it works out for you either way! PM me if you part it, theres probably a few bits & pieces I'd be interested in.

Are you planning on selling and purchasing/starting another project, or just getting out totally?

Sad to see it go.

thats what i thought. if you try to build the combo it will cost way over 30K. also the time an effort is just priceless.

im not sure if i will part it if i do i will be keeping turbo, ecu, injectors. the engine, trans an diff will be for sale.


SnyperEB, hopefully getting out of it all. i know its going to be very sad seeing it go. ((

I think you should take off your pink frilly undies, put the car under a cover in the shed for a little while and keep it for when the mood takes you again....if you sell it you'll be losing far too much money, time and effort, and it's near as dammit to a surety that you'll want to go really fast again some time in the future.

fyi i know this is faster than inflyt but that sold for around 30k mark, and thats a 9 second ba turbo....

It takes ALOT of money to get from a 9.98 to a 9.1

it takes alot of money to turn a el into a ba too

point being, it was just for a vague comparo... was also about 12 months ago... aaaand sinans car has a shit load more potential due to the fact it has 660kwish, and that had like just over 400 it was just setup mint for its power

+1 for rollin's comments

Put the car away for a while; in storage or something. Just get away for the drag scene for a while. Then in couple
of months if you've got the same feelings, then start to advertise it.... Thats what I reckon anyways...

Do you need the money?

Surely you could just do what rollin said... Stick it in a shed for a bit and see how you feel in a few months??

Why are you considering selling it?

this i agree with if your not desperate for the money

+11ty to Rollin and EFectiv. Harden up and just keep the fucken thing already.. THe minute it sells and drives away you will regret it.

I have another idea actually - how about you let me look after it for a while, until you want it back? I'll get it registered and mod plated in QLD, then you can drive it on the street in VIC with no worries

yeah another agree for put it away for a few months unless u really need the cash... if i had a $ for everytime i heard an old bloke say "i wish i never sold it" id be well on the way to 400rwkw

30k you'd have to be patient..
You'll find someone who'll pay that, if not, really close to that price..
It will just take time...
Good luck with it man...

Lan, it will break your balls to sell it and watch someone else go into the 8's with it. Especially with all the cash and time you've put into it.

why are you thinking of selling it man
bolt on a GT45 (or 50/55 :p) and up the boost...
can the engine/driveline support much more power in its current form (apart from the lack of traction part)?

Advertise it for what YOU want for it.
Park it for a while.

That way, you either get what you want for it, or you'll come to your senses in a few months and thank **** you didnt let it go.

Everyone goes through the depressive stage at some point i certainly did. Like most have said, cover it up for a while and enjoy life. That's of course if your not about to loose fingers and toes from the mob.

Try and sell it complete for what you want but be patient. I can't even sell a bloody twin cam eb for 3200, I know it doesn't come close to your car though.
If mine doesnt sell soon im going to enter it in crash and bash at archerfield

I agree with the others about storing it for a while.* Saying goodbye to a car you've put your heart and soul into is like saying goodbye to a good friend.











*Especially John. He never says '****' on here.

Park the car in the back corner of the garage and store it till it hits you again. From what I've seen the bug ways bites back
