Wolfblass BF GT

Thought id make a thread for this, this is my second car (along with the EF). My Old man owned this since it was brand new so it was really the most ideal car for me to purchase as i know whats the history has been like with it. After acquiring my full license, my old man and i worked something out and i purchased it off him.

Its a 2006 BF GT which is winter white with matt black stripes and is a 6 speed automatic transmission. unfortunately it only had a suede interior which was looking worse for wear and kind of outdated but i soon replaced it. The only mods done to it was a BPR intake which sounds pretty good!

Since owning it i had to customise it to suit me so i have done the following:

Pedders coilovers all round
Full sound system with custom intall
xforce 2.5 inch stainless steel cat back quad system
Black Venetians
Full FPV leather interior (purchased of needforspeed)

here are a few photos of it

i had the drive seats from the interior i got re bolstered along with new leather as a fat guy used it and was looking a little saggy.
Image

i got the custom box made to suit the shape of the bseries bootwell and put some 10 inch type r subs. all tuned at 38 hz it really gives a good poke!

The brembos were along looking worse for wear as my old man used his ticket to take his fpv to sandown to get used to it. Instead of going around cones and learning the car, my old man thought it would of been 'more fun' to blow a set of tires which eventually happened along with having the brembos glowing from hard braking down the straight! basically i stripped them down gave them a quick clear coat and they came up a treat!
Image
Image

Oxidization on the bonnet and roof was starting to appear on the car too which i was actually stumped at, hit the panels with a buff and a decent details and i had the bonnet and roof more glossy then what its ever been!
Image
Image


Ive got an xforce catback which sounds ok on idle and at full stick but while cruising its a bit fluffy. Only was to solve it was to finish it off so i got these! Herrod HPC coated extractors and cats which are basically brand new

Image

Also ive ordered some new 20 x8.5 and 20x10 concave wheels for it to finish the look im going for! unfortunately they hit the brembos so i need to wait ill Tuesday in order to get a better offset to clear the brembos.

Image

Pretty happy with how the cars turned out, only thing left for it is to get a sunroof, get the cats and extractors installed, tune and billet oil pump but ill wait until the new year as im possibly going europe or america next year and need to save!

Agreed, the looks mint in white! A little too low at the back for my taste though. Also, if you haven't yet, get a PBR external trans cooler immediately!

The height actually isn't bad, My ef is lower but i need to be more careful with driveways and parking as the bumpers hang quite low. Hitting them will cost a fortune to replace. Once the 20s go on i might raise it a bit but it sits straight and its not bumpy at all.

In regards to the PBR external trans cooler, i assume this is to look after the zf box? i haven't had any trouble at all with mine and the car has done 122,000km. Whats involved and benefits really to running standard?

the trans cooler is to avoid putting coolant through your auto when your radiator cracks.

car looks mint. love what you've done with it. should sound farkin sick with the extractors at that system.

As Misk said, it bypasses the standard heat exchanger to avoid coolant getting into the ZF and trans fluid getting into the coolant. It is a common issue with the seals that keep them apart failing. You may not have any issues now, but it can happen at any time. My BF had roughly the same kms on it as yours has now when the ZF was destroyed due to this issue. It's less a performance mod, and more saving you from a $6k ZF rebuild! Look up the 'milkshake' issue and you'll see what I mean!

I didn't think there was an aftermarket cooler available for the v8s yet? I thought the pwr radiator was the only option.

Ill have to do some more research on it, seems to be kits for the 6s though and not the 8s. Pete i couldn't find the time to head down your way so i had a stab at it myself, pretty happy with the outcome and i didn't crack the paint:)

Cant wait to whack on the extractors and cats on but unfortunately it will have to be in the new year. At least ive got them here so i can get them done as soon as i can.

Hopefully will get my wheels done tomorrow too.

Been a while since i updated this, car is going strong but have recently had all damage repaired and sunroof fitted. Sound system was pulled out and im upgrading.

Basically going to blower path and with the sale of my other car which is in the for sale section. I will be putting either a yella terra or a kenne bell blower. Im leaning towards the yella terra because of the hidden look but love the sound a kenne bell makes so it is a tough decision:). But this will be happening in he next few months as an xcal 4 and billit oil pump will also be going on. Anything over the 360rwkw is be enough and hopefully give my old mans 335 a run!

Rebuilt the whole front end with superpro bushings and genuine hub assemblies. Also installed my diffilipo hpc coated extractors and high flow cats which make the car sound like an animal
