by **needfordspeed** » December 20th, 2007, 6:29 pm

It's been for sale heaps of times, I personally wouldn't buy it for that much but I can see why the owner wants that amount for it.

by **Steady** » December 20th, 2007, 6:37 pm

Its orange now.
Still not a massive fan of it.
Too showy for me.

by **needfordspeed** » December 20th, 2007, 6:39 pm

WTF?

Pics asap!

An orange EL XR has been my dream car for ages

by **Steady** » December 20th, 2007, 6:40 pm

Its advertised on fordxr6turbo.com, only dodgy pics of the orange, like just the engine bay.

by **Dansedgli** » December 20th, 2007, 6:46 pm

That's gonna look so good once it's done.

by **Damo** » December 20th, 2007, 6:57 pm

worst front bar ever!

Nice colour though the orange.

by **needfordspeed** » December 20th, 2007, 6:58 pm

Yeah that front bar FTL, rest is mad though.

by **Parfrey** » December 20th, 2007, 7:10 pm

wow didn't no it was orange! looks pretty mad.
does anyone no if its engineered? would be a bit of effort to get a rwc if it isn't.

by **ned** » December 20th, 2007, 7:35 pm

WTF that's tripped out!

by **pHaT`eL** » December 20th, 2007, 7:52 pm

One hot EL!! Last time I seen that was Noble, lol!!! Those rims are insane

Wonder if its running the DVCT now? AFAIK it wasnt..

by **Fritzz** » December 20th, 2007, 9:27 pm

best e series imo. very very nice car

by **oneredED** » December 20th, 2007, 9:56 pm

Front bar is more heinously ugly than an abortion with a coat hanger. Respect for the power figures, and the obvious metric arseload of the cash the guy has blown, but ****, that front bar just takes the whole car to another level... Love to see it with something a bit less "sick supra bar bro".

by **pHaT`eL** » December 20th, 2007, 10:22 pm

Funny you should mention the Supra bit, its a custom Jetspeed kit, factory of rice

by **UNEZED** » December 20th, 2007, 10:38 pm

That car iz mint havent seen it in ages last time was like what pete said which was at noble maccas

by **Rollin** » December 21st, 2007, 12:23 am

I fkn want that car so bad

Roady no prob up here too - my work would do one for me for free

by **EFFalcon** » December 21st, 2007, 7:26 am

woah, orange.
nice one

by **G3R3N** » December 21st, 2007, 3:50 pm

That interior is amazing too!

by **G3R3N** » December 21st, 2007, 3:54 pm

It's almost jap-spec thou.
And the rocker cover thru the bonnet???

I dont know bout that one

by **SLY347** » December 21st, 2007, 6:32 pm

Has to, either that or rocker cover make a nice little dent in the bonnet

by **G3R3N** » December 21st, 2007, 7:01 pm

Fair enough didnt realise that...
+1 for bonnet bulge instead

by **Rollin** » December 21st, 2007, 8:16 pm

Fk no - rocker cover poking through FTMFW! Leaves no doubt as to what is underneath! If he put a bulge on people would just go 'oh look, another try hard with a BA bulge' (I've seen NA V6 commodores up here with them, that kinda ruined it for me)

by **[D1SCNT]** » December 21st, 2007, 8:55 pm

car as is is fuckin mint!!! front bar, rocker thru bonnet,everything....

Are you fuckin' blind PATJET? It's like poo covered in period blood on a hairy puss-filled stick; fucked up.

Agreed. There's a blue VS down here with one... and a VY HSV kit slapped on it. Looks terrible.

by **EDFalcon** » December 21st, 2007, 9:44 pm

that VS is one fuckin quick car though... two brothers with amazingly quick (but tarted up) commonwhores.

Mate You must be really fucked up. I think you have more issues than that car will ever have.

Probably, but if I actually gave a **** then I'd probably be embracing some mythical/religious figure for enlightenment or solace.

by **EFFalcon** » December 22nd, 2007, 1:50 pm

I think the front bar suits the car.
not how i'd have it but its not my car!

by **Sunboost** » December 22nd, 2007, 3:02 pm

Yeah I don't mind the car. The guy didn't go wrong anywhere on the car IMO. He made a package that all works well together.

Hole in bonnet > bulge.

Reminds me of those tuff VN's with those funky manifolds that you need to cut the bonnet to fit. They are sick shit.

by **TUFED6** » December 22nd, 2007, 3:06 pm

Not a massive fan of the front bar or skirts, too Veilside. Not even jap car guys like Veilside

Orange looks nuts tho, wheels look nuts, 2 cams > 1, bonnet hole looks good too!

Anyone got any more pics of the respray?

by **Rollin** » December 22nd, 2007, 4:35 pm

The whole car is sex on wheels (esp those wheels, OMFG!) the only thing I don't like is that the front bar kicks up where it runs across in front of the intercooler - if the bottom of the front bar was just a flat lip the whole way along (like a v8 supercar) it would be perfect.

by **EF ECTIV** » December 22nd, 2007, 5:27 pm

I remember seeing this way back in performance ford mag or something.... one of the 1st turbo eseries I saw..... Everything
but the front bar is sweet as.....It just screams tuff

by **EdFairmontGhia** » December 22nd, 2007, 7:03 pm

sweet looking ride, i'd rather spend less money on pyroay for a more street look.... i'll just stick to dreaming about both for now

Aaah, thats what it is! I agree, it's the veilside supra-style kickup in the middle that really disagrees with me i think! If it was straight across, then yeah, I think it'd be pretty awesome actually. But meh, it's not my car and each to their own, I just personally dislike the front bar. The rest of the car is fucking nuts in every way though.

by **EFFalcon** » December 22nd, 2007, 8:56 pm

i love how the cooler piping is integrated into the front bar.

by **Rollin** » December 22nd, 2007, 11:25 pm

He should drill speed holes in the piping for more cooling

by **sphell** » December 24th, 2007, 9:59 am

the orange looks heaps better than the old colour IMO. I don't mind the front bar, I'm just used to it I guess. The only thing he needs to do is put in some EF tail-lights. Those orange indicators look like poo.
