Yeah he is getting banned in a sec. He is still not wanted here, I wish he would take the hint.

If anyone wants to buy a TE50 engine cover him a call on 0408381134.

Very nice car indeed, The XR utes and T series are the only AU's i like.

I think Tristan has proven before he has the time to make it go a hell of a lot harder than yours.
And as for spiing into second with three people hooray for him. Try spinning into 4th with a car load and 19's. A mate of mine can but he hasnt got an attitude like yours.

i wouldn't supercharge it though, seems like a stupid idea to take a fairly rare car and stuff a supercharger onto it... :glare:

long as he doesnt spend stupid amounts of money on it, hes gonna get his money back at the end so doesnt really matter too much.... well it does to the fags who dont like rare things being modified etc...

I've been trying to get my housemate to TT his...I think if you do it right you wouldn't need to cut anything/very much at all, and you'd have the torque to tow Ayers Rock. Put a couple of S15 or R33 turbos at the ends of the extractors, a drain into the sump with a scavenge pump to pull the oil away from the turbos and run mild boost, win.

Was waiting for your thread with pics Tristan...sounds and looks good in the flesh from that beast club meet a couple weeks ago. As I and a friend agreed, T3 is the only AU to own :)

Awesome 'downgrade' any which way you look at it...and it has the sunny to boot (+1 coolness :cool: ) haha :P

Can't believe you got it for such a good price too - were you dead set on manual the whole way - have you driven any of the T's with ESS ?

Is ESS really anything special? I was under the impression it was the same gimick as the "Adaptive Shift" my XR8 has, but with added buttons on the steering wheel. I actually don't like adaptive on mine to be honest, its annoying most of the time. If I have been driving the car grandpa styles, then all of sudden want to give it the boot, it still changes gears like its in Eco mode until it realises I actually want it to hold a gear, which by that time is too late! Stupid autos.

Yeah dunno - drove an FBT back a few years ago with adaptive shift...gave it a best of a test with some cruise / WOT - did what it was supposed to...as far as autos went, it was better than non-adaptive shift *shrugs*.

I have never driven a 'T' with ESS...I have heard good things about it...much better than the B-series efforts with the autos in terms of holding gears AFAIK. Can chirp second 'properly' and drive it as a more performance auto (if that is a real word haha).

This coming from someone who plays with heaps of late model Fords and reckons it's great. Being steering wheel controlled (N/A if you choose to have radio / CD controls <-- wtf is up with that ?! Bastards should make it have both!) also adds a bit more to the driving experience I guess...good for for the driver who doesn't mind a bit of spirited driving every now and then and appreciates not having an over-developed left calf muscle.

Only reason I made mention of it here is because it's the only real in-between as far as man vs auto goes - curious if Tristan ever considered the option or if he was dead-set man-well all the way :)

God this guys is weird... you want to drag me to prove that my car is not completely different to yours?? And if you did drag me i hope that you would win cause i know i would be pissed off after spending 6.5k on a engine and not beating a car with 140k on the clock that is as stated is "slow".

Ive got plenty more specs on how different these are to each other if you like?

Well last i herd you had spent 8k ok fair enough 6.5k is still way to much just to make the engine stock specs again. You keep pushing the point that it is slow and i completely agree with you it is slow, ive said that from the start.

Dud racing's car is a a fantastic car very very clean and with 23k on the clock its a very good example of a T3 TE50, but as you said this is about my car not everyone else's.

But thanks for your comments i appreciated the good and the bad.

I hope someone banned this poor sole... he doesn't seam to contribute well to this forum in any costume he wares, T2TE50 or turbox.

Ive thought about it many times but it means aftermarket computer, etc etc and all the goes with it.. the tuning capabilitys with the Au is nothing compared to the Bseries.. but OH" it would be one tuff mother!!

Cheers Steve, Yeah manual all the way... just have to have a manual auto's are to unpredictable.. but having said that ive never driven a T with ESS. I'd imagine they aren't bad at all.
The three things i was looking for if i was to buy another car before i turn 25 was V8 manual and sunroof... and im damn happy i got all three.

Im not sure where you talking about to update the unknown info.. i have always known what the wheel were i used to want them on my red EB. cheers anyway..
