plus turbo

[makvaiielles_xr6]

for starters always go zorst (extractors back), this way ya get a nice note, its open for more mods and an upgrade in proformance.

[Greenhorn]

lowered and mags

[Calimino6]

hey cheers mate... yeh i might give it a tougher sound aye... so u rekon its worth it? its looking a bit scabby... the roof needs a respray.. its my first car, i dont wanna spend to much cash but i wanna make it nice.. u kno?

[makvaiielles_xr6]

yeah for sure. zorst is like the first step to mods, then air intake. other wise to save money just buy the zorst from the cat back (sounds ok,though not the same in proformance) they go for like $250ish

[Calimino6]

yeah.. hmm sounds good. im happy with prepormance at the moment hey gos hell well!! plus im a bit of a hoon so i dont want to kill myself as the risks are allready way to high! just love that burnt rubber smell so i might go.. hmm maybe just the $250.. it needs a respray to... someone said to get a pod filter

[halo]

dun do anything cos ur gonna lose your license the way your going about it..

from what you have said I gather that a 2.5 inch cat back, 20" chromies on the front with retread snowflakes on the back, and a big ass stereo should get you all smiles... similar to mine

[Dansedgli]

Drive it as is for a while then **** it off and get something good..

[[chubbz]]

Drive it as is for a while then **** it off and get something good..

best advice so far do it

[G3R3N]

Yeah, CFI FTL.
Get an EB, they rock!

[Commando]

All you EA haters...

Treat it as a thrashcar Just cut 'n' polish (or ignore... like I do) the roof, throw a loud exhaust on, & either get a shorter diff (like from an XR6) or get a manual conversion.

PS Gerendasi, his sig says "multipoint"

[APV]

Drive it as is for a while then **** it off and get something good..

[Commando]

Hrm... I didn't have a look at the final pic

I'd believe the pic over the sig so I'll hand that point to you

[G3R3N]

F*CK Yeah!!
Calimino, put a carby on it!

[Malakai]

Sell it... then buy $500 MPFI 5 speed one from the paper. Then sell that and buy a good car. Or boost the MPFI 5 speed one and smash some stock SS holdens and VL turbos.

[Calimino6]

ha ha its a fine car for a first.. yeah its the multi point guys... and im pretty sure its the 4 speed.. plus i rekon its a good project bein a fairmont its quite nice

[Calimino6]

ohr yeh, my girlfriends dad has a brandnew pod filter he says i can have... how do i go about putting it on as they dont fit on do they?

[holmsy]

so its been converted to multipoint allready?
there is far finer cars for a first

[Calimino6]

its been multipoint ever since i got it...but everyone keeps telling me to chuck the pod on... apparently that makes it run nicer

[holmsy]

so when did you take that picture.
beacause the picture shows a centerpoint setup?

[Calimino6]

Drive it as is for a while then **** it off and get something good..

best advice so far do it

huh? why? It goes well, its reliable, its got perfect interior and i got it nice and cheap... plus its a first car... why should i get rid of it?

[Calimino6]

so when did you take that picture.
beacause the picture shows a centerpoint setup?

oh well thats a recent pic... i dont know how to tell the difference.. looks like ive been told shit stories. the guy i bought it of said it was multipoint and then my mate looking at it said it was two.. but i doubt they are sure of what they are talking about... so how do u tell and whats the difference?

[G3R3N]

That big racquet looking thing is the intake for the CFI. You cant really get a pod onto that anyway.
Consider a MPFI conversion IMO or get and EB 4.0

[Calimino6]

i could... but i cant really be fucked lol... is there any major gains apart from speed? i dont realllly care about turning it into a racing car. just want it to look and sound nice

[holmsy]

multipoint will give you a noticeable gain in performance.
as said
center point looks like a tenis racket.
multipoint is the one with the black box in the very front passenger corner for the air intake.

[Dansedgli]

just want it to look and sound nice

Erm its an EA 6 banger.

Fail.

[Calimino6]

yeh but thats beside the point. its a first car, and from the outside all the EAs,EBs,and EDs look the same to all the people i know lol

[Calimino6]

Yeah, CFI FTL.
Get an EB, they rock!

ebs are pretty sik though. did u see the pic of my mates one?

[G3R3N]

yes i did. Mate, if your happy with CFI, then just get yourself an exhaust and maybe a LSD. Maybe some 16 inch wheels, lower it a tad, light window tint and you're set. Probably cost you less than $1000 too.. Keep an eye on the classifieds on the site, you might come across something along those lines

[Calimino6]

yeh ok cheers. Ha ha i fitted an air horn today... $25 from kmart. The first horn was screwed

[Malakai]

Oh boy!
