Boosted Falcon

hey guys im Troy i own a 1991 EA falcon its stock at the moment but i am hoping to change that when the money comes in im also a perth boy

i am hoping to lower it respray it some nice rims and a nice audio set up


heres some pics of it





pics of mine and EAflcns EAs

lower + new rims would be first on my list.

fix your number plate lights, remove pinstripe, de-badge, colour code bumpers.

dump it boost it done!

galapogos01 wat do u mean by fix the number plate lights the one on the left isnt mine and wat do u mean remove pinstripe why debadge it?

EFFalcon and yes am planning on lowering it and some nice rims wen i get the money and also clear tail lights and clear indicators

clear tail lights FTL!!! dont do it

sorry wats FTL and why not?

Because clear taillights on falcons are look shithouse. I know your probably 16 and have no cash but that does not mean you have to do mods that are cheap and tacky.

Save your pennies and do shit that wont get laughed at by people who you dont know.

really i really like the look of them i will see how they look on EAflcns car when he gets them

also i took the side strips off am hoping to respray it soon

then i shall upload some new pics

as said dont get clear taillights.
especially the ones they make for ea-ed they are shithouse.
but if you do dont take any critisism off these forums as personal attack. but 99% of people on here dont like rice including clear taillights, neons, and stickers on bonnet n doors n shit

how old are ya mate?
got a job?

to start with just lower it. chuck some rims on and an exhaust.
and get to work on makin it quick depends what your aim with the car is really tho.

fair enuf but yer i wont take it personally

i was thinkin bout some neons for the interior maybe

im 16

and im an apprentice mechanic in the making coz im at a tafe sorta thing wher i will do 5 weeks on 5 weeks off but i start my 2 week work expierence at barbagallos next week

yer gonna lower it and some rims and exhaust eventually wen i get the cash

painting it candy apple green just made a thread to see if some one can photshop tht for me

Ban.

Neons and clear tail lights dont belong on a falcon.

i was only gonna put one neon in under the dash on the passengers side

and i really think the tail lights suit it but thts my opinion and thts yours

Clear tail lights dont suit anything let alone falcons.

How much are clear tail lights anyway? You should buy another EA instead.

depends wher u get em why should i buy another ea thers nothing wrong with mine

Because its better to have 2 EA's than 1 EA with abortion spec taillights.

Dansedgli & holmsy, This aint your Project, its his. He can put white Tail lights on if he wants, How does that Make it Jap or rice or what ever you call it. Least he wants to be different, Changing from the boring stock looking ones. Wow you might be able to tint it. F*ck how many times that been done. He was asking for Help not bloody critosism. Troy do you falcon up how you want, Dont have to listen to other ppls sh*t

im with the boys guys, rice means thos stupid fucken jap crack supras and shit, this is about e-series and sharing ideas not about flamin over tail lights

Fair enough, it's his car, he can do what he wants with it. No one is going to stop him from doing anything, but there will be a lot of advice given about what will work, and what won't.

The general consensus is clear taillights look shit. If you put them on, you will most likely get sick of them pretty quickly. I will admit... I had clearies on my EL a while ago... got sick of them, put the stockies back on.

lol. This is the motto for people with their taste in their arse all over the world.

EAflcn wrote: He was asking for Help not bloody critosism.

Criticising would be giving him shit after he puts clear taillights on his EA. Helping is telling him not to do it before he buys them thus saving him money and the humiliation of having cheap arse homosexual clear taillights on his EA.

Your so wise Dan.

its an E-series.... the whole things boring

ok im open for any ideas what should i start with on this as its going to be my project

Don't do it.
Drive it around till you get good money and buy a newer car, that is my advice.

fair enuf and whys that dnt u like the EA's its pretty tidy for $1 400

1300 too much

take those ghey hubcaps and mudflaps off would be a start....

The hubcaps are the only good thing about the car.

that says alot about the car

call a tow truck and have the car picked up. then go out and buy a another one thats multipoint.
dont put any neons on it.
dont put clear tail lights on it.

just my opinion. dont get upset

I think you hit the nail on the head Dan lol

Multipoint should be first mod, rather than clear tail lights IMO...
Buying clear lights is just wasting your money, you can just about buy another EA for the price of them lights... there are better things you can do with your money.
I think you should be saving your money for a new car, EA's are getting pretty old... not really worth wasteing money on... they are good for a first car... I've got an EA and have owned it since 2 years after it was made, it was very reliable and had no major problems and never broke down... loved the car at the time, but bought an EF with XR suspension a couple of years ago and couldnt beleive how much of a difference there was between them...it felt years ahead in quality...

well they are years ahead of the ea so of course the quality would 'feel' like it would be improved... otherwise itd just be like the holdens with just bout all of them being the same

i have an early 94 model ed and a late 94 model ef and it still feels like years and years difference

i love how it was pretty civilised then some random gets on his high horse about not giving the guy shit and it went worse

honestly these days i tell people not to mod their cars untill ya get a nice newer car
but then again i did the exact same thing when i got my car. its a waste of money but is fun at the time. (mods not clear taillights)

cars especially old ones are a waste of money to mod. but hey only other thing to do is save for a house. **** that.

burn the hubcaps and sing kombaya

i payed $1250 for my ED and it was in good condish i shit you not.





The ad on carsguide.com.au of my car.

i think 1300 is a bit excessive for an EA.

did it come with rego?

Another vote for no clear tail lights, neons, or any other poor-taste "mods".

White bumpers or an SVO two-tone style would improve the appearance of your GL, or throwing a Ghia garnish on the back.

Other cosmetic changes could include a Ghia or XR interior (seats, centre console, doortrims).

The Multipoint conversion (& maybe a regrind cam) would be cheap performance mods to do, plus a cheap catback system (or 2nd-hand extractors)

Please, do not rice your falcon

White bumpers - cheaper
2 tone - will look better again, but cost more.


Idea - buy things that are compatible with an EF/EL. (even ED). eg extractors, exhaust, springs, shocks, cam.
Then, when you decide fk this, this car really is a POS, you can put all the goodstuff into the newer car. Win.

You can get 2nd hand catbacks for the same price as qweer Fail-lights.
2nd hand extractors - <200 - easy. I've seen heaps go on forums for $150.
Springs - $250 max Brand New - about a 100 2nd hand.

Shit, now you car goes faster, looks better, and thats after what, less than $350 - easy.
MPFI is a cheap conversion as well, and dont get rims, waste of a lot of money. You get them when you have nothing left to do. Gloss black EF stockies = win.

We all know whats its like to get our first car. Let him go he only asked for help not to be told not not to do. its his money his time his car.

We gave him help.
We arent twisting his arm though are we? If hes set on those lights then he'll get them.
