Havnt found what caused it to go bang as the head was mint but number 6 had no carbon

Well i decided to give the lane a wash clay n polish last saturday and this was the end result
Cant wait for more Drags and frying tyres again

wow... that clay bar works a treat hey...! looks awesome man!!
come do mine man... pleeeease...!
haha

yeah it feels like your running ya hand across glass its that smooth now.....
Sucks to be a detailer never have the time or cbf doin your own but when you do makes it worth the while
used 3M Medium grade claybar,Turtle wax ICE polish and took bout 2 1/2hrs
im happy with the result...
Also heres a pic of my lane and Matt's LTD (NOT MY LTD) NYCRYD-Nice Ride
lowered with king springs and pedders shocks and fitted with SSA 20 inch wheels

OK so here's the latest some wog reversed out just after i parked up i heard this crunch
look up to see what i always feared hiace van hit my rear bar bent it chipped the tail light
guess i'll be gettin some quotes sat/tuesday
although it crumpled his rear quarter and thankfully for me his got full comp

Ah sh!t Joel! Careless mofos... van drivers always make me nervous... except when they're not in vans.

Well... where ever it gets repaired... be vigilant when it comes to quality. Take it from me, being in the panel industry, e-series get treated like arse when it comes to body repair. Mainly because they are a turd of a car to get good gaps on.
The chrome moulds are no longer available, so there is an aftermarket one used but it doesn't have the same smooth angled finish that flows with the rest of the mould. We have masked off the existing chrome in the past and repaired the painted section.

I hope it all gets repaired without a hitch mate.

fukk... no good man...
that shit sucks...
fukkin dickheads...!

nycryd looks mint.

your not having much luck of late

the fairlane and ltd look awesome. very jealous, they both have sunroofs!
just one question coz u or some one else may know... is there such a thing as a df ltd ghia?
i ask because there is a car at work with an ltd badge at the back and a ghia one on the boot lid with an ltd bonnet thing and ltd grill... the thing only has a velour interior tho...
just wanted to know if it is actually an ltd, like maybe very first df or something or if its just a fairlane with ltd badges n shit...

cheers.

thanks mate, thats what i thought. but i remember seeing another "ltd ghia" a while ago so i thought maybe they gave that name a go for a little bit. i didnt think they existed either but this car puzzles me all the time... if it was an ltd it would definately have leather seats wouldnt it?

All DF/DL LTD's come STANDARD with Cappacino leather. Although, I have have only TWICE seen the 'optioned' LTD velour trim.
Very nice, but still there is no such thing as a LTD Ghia.

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback guys...
Yeah it does suck and when you hear him say "It's only a car" does hurt
well i do have a few panelshops in mind but as josh stated
most will just do a quick job..
So i'll be goin to SUPER FINISH in moorabbin as they deal with all our BMW's
Webby's Panel shop on Waterdale road
and a few other higher end panel beaters

And dont want any aftermarket parts fitted
even if parts are sourced from the wreckers
but at the end of the day it wont ever be the same..

I would also speak to brighton panels in moorabbin mate. They mainly do Audi porsche and stuff like that .
They always seem to do a awesome job

Yeah as long as their within distance to get to on lunch break but from memory there on south road
Need atleast 2 quotes anyway from memory (just hope it dosn't get put a side and make me wait 3 weeks)
and ive decided to buy a rear bar so i know i dont get cheap aftermarket and mismatched chrome inserts

So will remain like this on aff day

i dont think they ever made aftermarket fairlane rear bars mate...
there's not enough people wanting em....

KR1STO wrote:i dont think they ever made aftermarket fairlane rear bars mate...

I see your point mate..Thats just incase they find the chrome extension setion and makes it look mismatched.
so i'll just be buying a complete rear bar and having that resprayed will talk with whoever sprays the car to quote up the rear bar as its pushed n creased it bit closer to centre. Also not too mention i told him i'll move mine forward to create less damage but he continued to reverse and has warped the edge also..
Must get a daylight pic

Car is looking good these days mate. SHame about the dickhead backing into you!

last time i priced the chrome strip's, they had the rear one's
it was the front & some of the side one's that were no longer available

Thanks Shaun....Must say Shann done a mint detail on your EB for the Photoshoot...
Hope to see you at aff day well i dont expect to run lower than 15.4 as i havnt done any mods since...

Thanks Steve...
Still its creased the rear bar so im guessing bar and beaver panel and supporting clips paint and time
So thought i'll source the bar as im fussy with what goes on car

Well finally the rear bar will be gettin done on the lane at Mckinnon Smash Repair's on North Rd late June..
Last nite fitted up some new rotor's and wheel bearings thanks to Matt n Kyle..
The NL now brake's without severe vibration then goin through ringwood last nite got pulled into do a random breathe test past that.. Then some hippy in a epa suit tells me to park my car he then comments on how low it sits to a Police Officer. Who agree's then goes over to grab his height clearence wheel at that point i fit the sls fuse turn on the ignition raises the back end cop brings his wheel over to check for height and it cleared.
So i escaped a defect
But the epa guy shown me how loud my car is as 90dB is loudest
rev's it to 3,500rpm hits 101dB but blow back coming off throttle sent it to 105dB.
Current Setup- Extractors,hi flow into a 2 1/2" auspac system that has 2 hi flow mufflers
So a stock system will go on to clear this matter..For a while

Latest is the gas on the lane is backfiring and blew the airbox apart so im now thinkin of
selling the ltd buying a cheap daily taking the lane off gas and get some form of forced induction

Probably the best option in the long run, as for forced induction.............viewtopic.php?f=18&t=13175" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

Hey Joel, my offer for swaps on the LTD for my grandpa Futura still stands! I am just about to get it sorted as a nice daily too!

I've spoke to the other 1/2 and would prefer something different to e-series sorry ev

NL_CONCORDE wrote:I've spoke to the other 1/2 and would prefer something different to e-series sorry ev

Would a small green Honda be out of the equation?

Hey man,

Would you be keen on returning the DF too stock, and consider selling the exhaust system too me??

I have a DF too and am after a 5ltr exhaust.

PM me with your reply bud.


Cheers, MINT-8

Well it got the better of me and i decided to fit up the LTD wheels to the lane and this is the end result

maybe keep the LTD & sell the 'lane as the 'lane has given you more problems ?
