That colour is awesome. Not a fan of the front bar although with the colour and wheels kinda works :clapping:

if you took out all of the metallic it is pretty much the same colour as the yellow cabs up here,
I prefered it blue, blue is a much softer colour

I think the front bar kinda suits it. The rest of the kit is subtle, least its actually got good numbers to back up the kit though, lol!

i like the whole package, a car like that can pull the front bar off.
nicely integrates the intercooler piping, its very nicely finished (flush with guards and cooler)

it won best eseries at AFD, deservingly.

showwheels quoted me $860 18x8s in the sleep spoke, obviously wouldn't be a billet 20" dished rim but they still would look good.

Think we need a thread with some details of your car :)
I know we've seen it a few times at AFD, but it deserves to be shown off!

its eletric orange apparently.

How the F*** is it the "Best E series in aus"? as Street Fords puts it.

trent Adams EA beats it in every aspect of showiness, finish and customization.

I mean I love the look of JETXR but its got a big power barra, nice paintjob, retrimed factoy interior and a custom kit.

but that Maroon EA of Trents is on another level.

GUNXRR or whatever the plates are is up there with the best! only thing that car is missing is boost!

so whats that EA got thats so special? All I remember is decent paint and panel (with a average looking bodykit)
and a factory leather interior?

I Think its bodywork is not as standout as Jet, but it seems to have a better fit and finish in the pics of both cars. The Interiour is based on a NL Ghia, but is now retrimed. The Driveline has far greater customization then Jet. (i think, not sure how hard a top loader is to fit.)

I just belive that it has had more work done to a Higher degree then Jet. Although its not finished yet. and It has terrible wheels compared to jet.

Im not saying Jet is not great, but I belive having a good look at both on every level (engine, driveline, interiour, bodywork) Trents EA is far more unique yet not tacky or overkill in any form.

But when I think about it, MRXR8D is very close, as is 4US3XY, NWOLB and That show EB turbo in bright Purple.

I know not everyone is going to agree but that was my personal Judgement.

JETXR was a pioneer though, first BA motor into an eseries for example.
no bullshit, just did it.

I still have a article when it was featured way back when B-Series motor into E-series was considered impossible...

Overall I don't think its very outrageous at all to consider it THE best eseries going round.... (I hope to one day be
considered in that discussion :oops: )

Any e-series that is nice enough to be noticed by a magazine is impressive to me.

^^ That is so true.

I brang up the Cover car thing once before on Street Fords forum. It was about the 95% of the time the cover car is a XW/Y. Even though they feature a Highly impressive E series or AU. Its still not as good as a Restored V8 powed X somthing.

But the world goes round and I still think JETXR is a real nice car with a nice power figure.
