Boosted Falcon

I thought that is was about time i maybe put a thread up about my daily shit hack .

I got this off Beths brother in a rather sick and sorry state .
From here i decided id put a motor in it and that would be done .

Well since then its had only a few slight mods put on it but here is how she sits today .
It has a xr6 front bar .
Full xr6 running gear
is now manual
345 diff .
Hp starcorp 20s
Phat Gaurd rolling has rolled gaurds
Lowered 3 inch rear blocks plus springs reset
Full custom interior .
Plus Memphis stereo with custom install in doors and boot .









Boot up at Sandown because i was told to

These are the only pics i have of this car if anyone has some feel free to add .

Looks nice.


Cheers

looks pretty good. if it was sittin on the darkagents in silver id reckon they'd set it off.

if you dont mind me askin how much did the front end cost u in total

Jecs didn't see the point in going like everyone else . Thus why I picked those rims

Front end cost me nothing swapped some drift r 18s and he did work on interior with it

Needs side subs so you can put the back seat down! Other than that <3 it.

Definitely puts my daily wagon to shame! Haha nice rig.

Next we had to relocate the battery into the back . we actually put it between the sub box and back seat .
Ill put pics up of that soon

Its now at ted getting the exhaust and cooler pipping installed .

Should make for a reasonably quick wagon, even on low boost. Looks good and will be interesting to see how well it goes.

I think the gearbox will hate things pretty soon

Im actually borrowing a spare gearbox for springnats next weekend .
just incase
