yes and its auto.

it comes down to tyres, with my shiftkitted auto i can chirp any corner, but hard to on a straight being LSD and the weight of a stereo fitted fairlane, but with the spare tyres i have here on other rims i can chirp and kick the ass end out in the dry in a straight line, in the wet i can press the brake and the acceleartor and light up both back wheels, but throw the goodyear regattas back on and i struggle to spin them in the wet!!!!

and as i have prooven cheap tyres can also grip better then expensive ones (isnt that true ryan lol)

damn "sterling" ur car must be a powerhouse
i wish my car was like that

my ed chirps through to third gear (auto) with 18" dunlops does that mean my car is a "power house" ?

if you want

Mine doesn't - modded valve body- 345 LSD and 300hp.....Nankang tyres....

I think in this case we are defining chrip as "on the brake trying to do a standstill and I can get one chirp".
I find it pretty hard to believe that any of the cars mentioned above are getting a decent chirp into any gear on anything other then sealed indoor carpark concrete.

with ba's when u use the tiptronic if u back off just before ur gonna change then nail it a split second before u change it will often chirp as it confuses it to raising the line pressure i reckon.

ive done it a few tiems now..
also rolling along at like 50 or 60 on a slippery road(dry) just put it into 1 and slam the throttle and i get a chirp as it accelerates... not sure if its compression lockup or wheels spinning due to the sudden increase in torque (at about 4k in 1st) in the wet do the same it just skates out change to 2nd it keeps skating but speedo reads 140 and i poo a little.

oh sorry i was thinking you ment when changing gears

My stock EF chirps into 2nd and into 4th, hard shifting auto and no shift kit
As long as the revs are >4000

Tyres are firehawk 225's - traction rating is AA

A page and a bit of something that a front wheel drive echo can do.

This thread has aids.

My car chirps when I use the remote.

Anyway, how'd you go with finding some paint for the scratch Kyle?

i havnt found any, but the main one of concern was just traded paint , its got a dent or 2 but the scratch is gone , now my bumper situation..........

Just an update, after a bit of R&D, I may have another interior mod lined up for the car, it's going to be a lot of work but I don't wanna say what it is yet, just in case it's a huge disaster. I will post pics when I feel confident everything will work out . I'll leave a hint, it's newer and looks cooler. Probably gave it away but meh .

el,ef dash and console, to match your door trims

EF/EL dash's are common place now, that couldn't be a disaster
AU?

i dont like the au dashes,id prefer el,ef any day
dont think au dash would fit e series would it

Poor Kev, so much work ahead!

haha wouldnt that be fun to fit, look at the difference of the shape of the dash shell

AU interior conversion FTMFW!! I still maintain they are the best looking interior Ford has come up with yet!!

G6ET interior is easily the best.

lesser comments have gotten people banned from here Ev

haha, nah guys John is pretty well on the money, I am getting ready to do an EL Dash covnersion, Kev isn't doing it, i'm going to do it. After some R&D, learning a few things of Kev, and inspiration from NWOLB. once I get all of the parts it's pretty well getting done, im going to go the the full extent of possibly putting in NL Seats.



Just gotta find a set of NL Seats, a welder, and an EL Floor .

Commando wrote:lesser comments have gotten people banned from here Ev

I said INTERIOR, never said anything about the body! But yes, the G6E interior is pretty sweet, albeit still a little bit plastic.

Commando knows that

lol, here is a pic


Trip computer, Glove Box, Center console, Cluster Surround and radio surround(not in pic) are courtesy of Ford_Racing_8. lukeh and ruleford.

I Got hold of a DL LTD BEM and dash loom (yes i know their the same as NL but meh ), They sold it to me cheap because the cluster and trip computer looms were chopped out, i had the cluster cables from when I had my NL Cluster in the ED. I have nearly finished resurrecting this loom but not quite there yet.

Leave the Recaro's in there Kyle, NL seats arent that good

lol, i guess I wanna go for something a bit bigger, i was looking at Concorde interior

Leave the seats and just do the dash and doortrims.
EF/EL/NF/NL seats are fukken homo.

whats involved with changeing over the loom

Looking good Kyle. If you do decide to change the seats, I will buy the old ones off you.

if you put a el seats in it i wouldent cut the flaw up just make some adapter for the seat rail or customize the rails

true, but the drivers one is starting to wear a bit which upsets me cuz they are nice. How did you and Jared keep em looking so good.

There's ways of getting in the car that seem to damage them more than others. It's just a matter of being a little careful.

snap on seat covers the go

yeh thats a point, lol Dave to name in quote

We went the other way in kristy's car.. put the ED Ghia seats in the EL.
EF/EL Dash/Door trims with ED Ghia seats is about the best factory combo you'll get.

as for the AU/BA/FG dash, anything can go in with enough cutting.
its been done before!
