Boosted Falcon

Hey guys, i thought it might be time to start posting updates to what I am doing to the car in here. Im basically turning my '94 ED GLi into an XR6 but with a nice Ghia interior.

I plan to convert this to manual and replace the current ECU with a Tickford XR6 one.


This is my car when I had not changed anything.








and this is today after I took it to the wash and did some mods.




Old Boot Garnish


Alpine 6 1/2 Type R's



XR Cluster (Thanks Thanatos )


Car With no garnish


With the new garnish



I will post more pics as things get done.


Kyle

You've got a nice clean base to start with there

needs dumpage!!! apart from that looks like a nice clean start

Needs MOMO, XR ECU and Lip spoiler aswell as the obvious XR Front for an XR Rep... (BTW I have all but the XR Front for sale) Nice base mate.

i got the ECU, PM me details for whole xr front.

nice ED - great example

EDIT: Shame about the state of the shed!!!!!! LOL check out photo 2 or 3

yeh true

Yeah Kyle Man Nice start,
Smokinef is right, needs dumpage,
pitty ur old man wont let u, lol,
wont be as good as the ED Fairmont im gonna do
Good Luck and see u at Tri's party

yep, well noted .


Mainly wont let me for insurance reasons, kinda annoying wen i payed for the car.

ill be on ma P's soon enough then ill pay for own insurance and freedom will roll in.......sumhow :S

haha mi olds were like that 2 man dont worry... but now im payin insurance im rollin around on ultras and they come with free shcccccccccccccccrapage!! lol

i put in blue LEDs in my cluster 2day, have fail half success, they worked but i think cuz of the orange lettering they didnt come out right.

lo Dim


hi Dim



im thinking a new fascia but i dunno, any suggestions?.

if you have any orange backlighting for anything, it will stuff up the effect of the blue LEDs, other than that it should be fine unless the LEDs are dodgy as shit

Trip computer is half done, at the point where it will only work when the car is running.


other cables need soldering still.

trip computer is finished i hope, cant take it for a proper test but i know the instantaneos consumption works.

so i think they must all work then, ill give an update later.

i tried putting in blue LED's for my parking lights, considering green but i dun think there legal, plus they'll play with the xenon's i put in.

Looks good, not bad for an L plater!!

Man I hope the cops don't chuck a hissy fit about those parkers.

Also, fix the dezza-spec suspension ASAP

its the cops... they can and will chuck a hissy fit about anything they possibly can.

if you read the earlier post lowering is an issue atm, but trust me i wanna get it done lol, its like a 4WD.

Haha if the cops really wanted to they could defect a car 5000ks off the showroom

lol i found the pics from the ad from when i bought the car.

finally got my new headunit and got it all wired up (Thanks Angel )

Alpine CDA-9887

Here are the pics.

that one is actually older, this is the latest model and i liked it. With those rear speakers it has bass and quality coming out the rear end

Nice work Kyle.
Next: Lowered

true but most of the time u gotta take performance over cosmetics.

Looking nice mate. Really need to get the whole job done for the whole XR look. Atm some people might look at it and wonder why you have an XR6 garnish.
Lights and suspension and it'll look much more legit.

As for the dash i've put up a few pics in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2185&p=38483&hilit=dash#p38483 that might give you a couple of ideas.
