CLEAN BA FAIRMONT

Postby xr8_stroker_91 » May 26th, 2010, 7:06 pm

This is my new Ba Fairmont, I've gone for just the clean look with no performance mods, except for Tyhoon CAI and K&N Air Filter. Didn't want anythingover the top, like silly bodykits etc, Just a clean daily driver.
I have included pics from when I first bought the car, and the small mods I have done to it.

Desire isn't driven by the heart, the mind or the wallet. Desire comes from another place. It's created by the smell of burnt fuel under full throttle and the look a car gives you when you're washing it alone at night...

Yes it is low, but no it doesn't scrape on everything. It's very rare that it does scrape actually. You can go a lot lower in a B series than you can in an e series due to the rear supsension setup. I was very surprised myself actually when I first drove it that it didn't scrape on everything, just lucky I guess

Hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone on here has a set of Fairlaine/LTD leather seats for sale? I enquired about them from Ferntree Gully Autosalvage, but they overcharge for their products ridiculously.
Thanks

Yes I do love the V8's but I enjoy having the fuel efficient 6 cylinder as my daily driver. I also did raise the rear end of the car after getting several canaries. It is now sitting at the perfect height I think. Non-commoder spec aswell lol

Maybe you should "inject some character" into this one Dave, if you know what I mean! ;)

I have Lovell's SSL rear springs, I personally prefer them over King Springs, just because I think they ride a bit nicer and they seem to sit a bit lower.
