Hi all,

Been lurking for a while...

Anyway, had a few E series, can't seem to move on..EB 1 Fairmont 6 (powerhouse...not - SOLD), ED XR6 (Great car - SOLD), EF Gli (Great daily driver -SOLD) now ED XR8 SPRINT.

White Auto

Mods - Headunit and 2 way speakers and chrome tyre valve covers :geek:

It's only got 120xxx k's so i'm looking after it!

Even zorst is stock - sounds like a 6! :shock:

I plan to do a full exhaust job but i'll be up for a good $1500 that i don't have at the moment so i might just have to stick a 7" fart cannon on in the mean time

Great Sprint you've got there mate, definitely a good idea to do the entire exhaust. For extractors I recommend Pacemaker PH4000s, & do whatever you want with the cat-back section :D
