Boosted Falcon

Nice daily mate!
I like your choice in wheels too.. BA GT's should look sweet!

Thanks parfey. It's no g6et thou .

It has grown on me since I first bought it i wasn't going to do anything to it but yeah haha,

Ordering some koni yellows for the rear of tuff car parts next week the Monroe gt's are shit, will be doing the fronts when funds are back up again,

Been thinking of converting it to manual as well but not sure I've got a conversion here just need a clutch pedal pin from malwood and a clutch cable,
I have to take the auto out because it shifts hard 1st to 2nd, then slips 2nd to 3rd, I've got another auto to go in aswell

Sweet, they look nice. I've started noticing the BA GT's around haha


Go manual!

I'm leaning towards manual

^^ ohhh Yes stick

+1 for manual

what are the koni's setting you back, im going boges all round in mine.

Around $370ish for the rears I've got some bilstiens I'm going to look at getting rebuilt for the front, definately going manual aswell

nice, i hear manual and a 1521a go real good together?

Yeah ive been thinking of getting the 1521a but not sure I think I'll just stick with the crow billet over a regrind a new regrind is 198 I think

yeh 198 if you swap cam over, what billet did you get?

Crow stage 3 2222549 it's the biggest one they have listed to suit e series

Nice car man! Should go nice with that cam in it.

id been keen to hear the idle when you get it in, im gonna be building a new motor over summer and im collecting info on different parts for it, how much did it set you back?

Thanks man, well any improvement over stock I'll be happy i don't think I'll bother with the 1521a the extra power would be nice but I'd much prefer a billet over a regrind

I bought it second hand but the retail price is $430 then valve springs were $110, cam gear $120-$160, I'll upload a video once it and the j3 are in, then I'll get cve to give it a tune

yeh ive got a regrind 977b, i dunno if its just me but i dont think its idle is much lumpier than stock once it was tuned, i definetly want something with a more lumpy idle and more power obviously

I don't think it's going to much lumpier then standard I'm not sure 100%

have a look at toohey's build thread, he has a video of a 1521a idle in his car and it sounds mint

Yeah I've seen that sounds tough, hes also got a fairly worked head aswell I believe

yeh, im going down the same route, ive got a head sitting in my shed that im going to use

Mint XR dude, that thing is soo damn clean!! Lol @ the amount of different wheel options it's been through, should look good with those GT wheels on

Haha thanks man yeah it's had a few but yeah the next set are my favorites I've had them in the shed for a few years just no cat to put them on haha,

Wheels look good man, I've always loved them. Don't think they'd suit my wagon though.

They would look sick on yours OMY I had gts on my Ed same color as yours and it looked awesome ..
About time your gettin to work on ya cars wombi ! Jealous wishing I had a shed at my house to **** around ..

They'd look good on anything I reckon,yeah finally haha

Maybe lol, keen to see the output once this gets tuned

Haha me too dunno what numbers to expect, I've heard it could make 150rwkw with headwork but don't think I'll get near that

will look bombed... one of the only rims I've seen which look sweet as 18s with the tickford kit... usually it makes
the rims look too small...

edit: will look bombed even without the kit...

Thanks man, been thinking of getting wood grain strips for the door and painting them piano black I've got a black momo wheel for it here and I'll get the black momo gear knob too just unsure how it will look

bout time my wheels got resprayed lol!!
here's a teaser with the wheels you got me resprayed! finally got a decent picture lol

Haha finally! I didnt use the guy that done yours after he fucked me around with them, i got the apprentice to them them at tradey for me so just had to wait till he went he scratched one bringing then home but there still pretty good haha,

Where's the decorsas? There was a el Xr same colour as mine kitted with them on in shep last weekend looked sweet as!

DeCorsas are show wheels and I'm missing a centre cap on one still so not much point in using them

that eBay dude no good?

Nope
Contacted sooo many places it's not funny, they only seem interested in wheels being bought

Buy a 5th ? Have a spare haha nah that sucks dude

Cam showed up today, j3 got sent to ti performance for a base tune, have a new clutch organized, just need a new clutch cable and clutch fork, then I'm going to swap it all over, Probably won't be for 2 weeks as I'm going to port Douglas for a week and Abit soon

Changed the LSD oil today aswell found a old thread where Rollin explained how to do it, it was so easy haha have done many mechanicals so it's good to learn them,

Also have a black and grey momo wheel to go on, and I'll buy the matching manual knob soon,

Koni's haven't been ordered yet waiting till some people pick up some items so I can order them,

Gave her a clean today, also fitted the new steering wheel has some wear but got it for free so not to fussed, and all the parts ready to be fitted bar the j3 should have that before I go away so it'll be ready to swap everything over when I get home
