[Zekey's Falcy]

Kool well im zeke, 14 and if you looked up its an 89' ea gl. So this is annoying everyone in this club has there license but me

But yeah i have major plans for this old falcon i just have to wait for funds. What are you planning to do with your ef?

[Commando]

Jump onto photobucket & upload pics there, then link the pics here

[Zekey's Falcy]

Kool thanks. Although i will have to do it later, im on my phone at the moment so yeah

[dcstraight]

ORSM - will put a date in my calendar for 4 years time when you can drive it

[Zekey's Falcy]

I can drive it in 18 months if i keep it under 200kw

[komprezzor]

Thats good to hear. If you get a 100% power increase from the twin turbo carby V8 with rocket cover soleniods youll still be under 200kw!!!

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah well cops won't even check my car so i can drive what i want

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yes I've been there. I love that blue ea falcon on there. Its the colour i was maybe gunna paint mine till i saw its been done

[t1MMy]

Yeah well cops won't even check my car so i can drive what i want

You sure about that?

[EDFalcon]

Yeah well cops won't even check my car so i can drive what i want

Why not?? Maybe not much when you're learning but P's are a massive target no matter what the car.

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah but i live on bribie and the cops are really lazy here. I don't know of anyone who has ever gotten a ticket on bribie

[EDFalcon]

My cousin lives there and he's been defected so there you go...

[Zekey's Falcy]

Wow..maybe people do get pulled over on bribie. I'll have to be careful then

[Nikk O'lass]

Get some pics up! Is it a mint EA? Just dont spoil this thread Zekey, im sure you've worked it out!

PS: Dont worry about dan, he just grumpy because failed at E-Series because of dodgy tradies

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah im working on the pix guys. And there are a few minor problems like spot rust, mirrors broken and paint faded on the bonet but apart from that its in very good condition. Especially because i only paid 150 for it

[Nikk O'lass]

What colour? It might just need a good polish. Mirrors are nothing, you have an exscuse to upgrade to some Eb-ED or EF-El mirrors.

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah im buying some polish from supercheap one day soon, I'll see how it comes up

[krisisdog]

So its gone from being a mint EA thats in better condition to everyone else's car on the forum, to an EA with faded paint, rust, and broken mirrors? Sounds like every other EA to me..

[Zekey's Falcy]

I don't remember saying it was mint. The rust is just a tiny spot on the left wheel arch (i mean like to 1cm diameter spots). The broken mirrors i don't car about coz i hate ea mirrors so im putting on el mirrors and the faded could just need a good polish, i haven't cleaned it since i got it.

[thebeast.]

its good to see a kid with a car at such a young age. by the time you get your P's it should go pretty well.
good luck

viewtopic.php?t=10305..... Not familiar?

[Zekey's Falcy]

Thank you. It goes pretty well at the moment actually, it runs smoothly. Only problem is that since im not driving it like at all, the battery charge doesn't stay up.

[67rce]

dont have a battery in it, then it can't go flat in the car...... get a float charger

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah that's a good idea. Im gunna actually try to get it registered soon anyway so i won't be driving it but it'll atleast get runs every now n then.

[thebeast.]

400 bucks for 6 months... its not really worth it if its not getting driven

[Zekey's Falcy]

Yeah i spose. That $400 could go towards my engine .

[Nikk O'lass]

I wouldn't worry too much about engine stuff yet! Get it looking mint first, get some Clear indicators and a Ghia boot garnish, even a set of factory rims (like some turbo blades) will help with the looks, and get some springs to get it sitting low.

A set of extractors and a good system should keep you happy. Engine stuff is something that you really need to have a clear mind in where your going. Your better off dropping a later MPFI engine into it and doing some mods like the pissing off the clutch fan for some thermos etc.

Because your not driving it yet its a good time to do some mods as when you do start driving it will be hard to find time to work on it!

You haven't said what colour it is!

[Phillis]

You haven't said what colour it is!

...or posted pics...

[bigdell]

its not what type of car if you have p plates the cops will pull you over.
when i got my p's about 150m out of the rta i got pulled up and they tryed to tell me that my ute was overly modified and i couldnt drive it. but all it has are a set of 4499's, 2 1/2 sports exhaust and pod in a box.
