G'day new round here, no idea why i haven't poked my head in earlier, as Ive always had at least one e-series on the road since i got my license and always toyed with the idea of boosting one.

Previous rides in chronological order;

89 EA, Centerpoint injected, 5 speed, King Springs Super Lows, Lukey extractors and full 2.5" system and a Lokka to top it off. Worlds perfect first car IMO :grin: That one ran 17.1 @ I cant remember now, although I do remember I staged with my rear wheels not my front on my first run :rotfl:.

93 EB Xr6, 5 Speed, with all the above mods plus, I gave it a port polish, K+N pod with cold air ducting to a sealed box in the engine bay, slotted front rotors, bendix ultimate pads, full set of nolathane bushes front and rear, full Xr6 bodykit minus the wing (although i think it was either a knockoff or just poorly repaired), factory leather MOMO steering wheel, and a big banging stereo. I wish Id never sold the old girl. :doh: This one did slightly better at 15.7sec @ I also cant remember xD. I built that one from top to toe, it never went to a mechanic once.

And my current daily a 93 EB Fairmont which will shortly have another set of king springs super lows and hopefully a 5 speed if i can find one cheap as chips somewhere.

Ive also got a little bit a of a project I'm working on at the moment.

A 1982 Ser2 Mazda Rx7 with a 13b turbo conversion. Its run 11.87sec @ 114mph, and puts out 287rwhp. It was my daily for a month.... until i couldn't afford to pay it off because of the fuel bills :D , but it's off the road for the time being, I'm currently building a half cage, installing 4 point harnesses, 5speed conversion, tidying up the frightful wiring in the engine bay and building a Hilux diff to suit as Ive torn out 3 stock centers and I'm so damn tired of stinking like diff oil. Then paint and ill be back on the road, jeez sounds so easy all summed up like that. :lol:

Sadly i don't have any photos of my first two falcons just my daily and the Rx7 now, I'm really bummed, I did have some great videos n photos but they've all been lost through various phones and pc parts cracking the shits. :cry: I've only got these couple of my current rides

I think I'm gonna have to pull my finger out and do something with the Falcon. Watching all these videos and seeing all these photos of all the great E-Series Falcons out there, has brought back some great memories. Makes me wish I'd kept all my goodies i had squirreled away.
