Boosted Falcon

Hey guys, now onto my 3rd eseires, after my white ef futura got writen off and then the green el futura poooped itself.

So was in need of a new car, had to be an Eseries as i have so many parts now from all the other buckets ive owned now.
Came apoun this standard EF GLI for $1000 with the rwc, couldnt complain as the body was alot straighter than the last car and was a manual which id been trying to find
Within a couple of days i had swapped all interior from the old and bolted it into the new.
As most cars, a project will never be finished so upto this day im still continuing on finding things for it.

So this is its rundown at the moment:

T5 manual + J3 Chip
CVE worked head/ Custom Crow Cam
EF tickford kit
Full el xr interior
el xr streering wheel
black dash
blue l.e.d dash globes, el police cluster with white ef needles
3:45 LSD
lowered on king s/l
DF LTD wheels
Slotted rotors
2 1/2 inch sport exhaust system
el fairmont side door moulds with clear side repeaters
rear window venetains
ef fairmont boot spear
Angel eyes and HID converison
kenwood headunit/ speakers/ sub ect

seen this thing cruising around abit, always gets my attention, love it! much planned for it?

yerr lol cheers mate, im always around the frankston/ mornington peninsula area as thats where im from
umm hopfully somtime this yr will start too look at putting the cam in, headers, custom intake pipe ect then go from there

LOVE THIS CAR ITS SIIIIIIK

imo your car looks way better with the chrome 15s. either way your car is much nicer and cleaner then my rust bucket!

What have you used for the chrome strip at the 1/4 panel windows? I got some chrome weather strips but they only go up to that (had to cut it a bit short to fit properly)>.

Second that^
Dark argents are everywhere

Just used a chrome pinstripe for the rear 1/4 window panel

Well its been a few months now since ive posted here, and still havnt done a great deal.
But last friday night pearly was doing some of his rig shots.
Went down there with a couple of club members and got a couple taken.
Pretty happy with the turnout! Thanks warren

So this winter weather has been pretty poor, ive stayed inside and played around with some vinyle crap, kinda goes with the xr streering wheel

Are those your parkers or low beams in the OP? If low beams, what kind of globes did you use?

How do you find the light spread with HIDs in standard ef lights? Was thinking about getting a set from eBay and chucking them in with white led parkers but worried the light spread might blind some drivers?

And also been doing a little gli / fairmont ghia door trims, i really cant be stuffed converting to power windows.
just waiting on the ripple door cards to be finished

ok im with ya, in that op there are just parkers.
And yerr the HIDs are so much better, i havnt been pulled up for them and havnt had any other drivers flash me as yet, and ive had them in for about 3weeks now

Fair enough! I shall be getting some when I got the spare cash.

Trims look good btw, something different
