Boosted Falcon

Looked good at Pier 35 a few weeks ago. DFs are the best looking LWB IMO.

Thanks mate was goin to roll in with the NL but then thought i'll bring out the 5 litre
glad you could see some of the club in vic see you again

Pic of LTD taken at VCC

joel,
any update's on the new engine/tranny combo for the concorde ?

i think a build thread or showroom thread should be made rather than here mate.

will make a build thread soon for the lane and later for the LTD

i take it there's more power with the new combo ?
just remember there's a RED LINE on the tacho

Yeah cant afford to do another motor just for the sake of watchin the tacho go past 6grand think it was 1st gear 100kmh's bout 6,400rpm learnt my lesson now and not again

Thanks to SLY5LT for the pic great photo of the LTD doin a burnout thanks Steve

I'll be goin a twin system - extractors with 2 hi flow cats into 2 mufflers dumped at the diff with a dummie pipe at bar
Other Mod's to come will be gt40p heads bigger maf/throttle body better intake so au top end n few other goodies

LTD needs some balls unlike the previous owner of the car lol

ROFL!!!

Twins dumped before the diff is the way to go.. Not droney like everyone seems to think.

lol mines dumped b4 the diff pete. drones like a mofo haha. tuf when ya jump on the gas tho hey!

Id get a pic up on the exhaust, but I cbf jacking it up to see it, lol.

Twin 2.5" pipes, muffler on each side, dumpers facing towards the outside of the car. Sounds good all the time, lol..

lol you will have to take it to the mini meet. i wana hear this thing.might give me some idea for me ute. mines only stock zorst to the diff anyway.so think thats 2.25''.

HMMM thinkin i'll arrange a weekend with kev for system to be done then
and dylan hope to see your ute at the next meet

Hate being out of the scene guess that'll happen when you wait and wait for a car that is still sitting at the workshop
nearly 3 months after it went there has a miss from 3,000rpm-4,500rpm in 2nd when it was last in my hands

So ive decided to do work to the LTD till i get the lane back
also been thinking of finding a manual setup out of a xr8 to put in behind the 5 litre in the ltd
and better diff gears than 3.23
Just wanna setup the ltd to take off harder and have an overall better power range than some ba xr6t's
theres a few other things ive had in mind also but want a sleeper

I bought it off holmsy, and Kev modified it

Any exhaust joint should be able to make one up for ya pretty cheap.

Too easy thanks mate

dumped at the diff system would cost f#%k all, pretty much straight pipe's....
would just depend if you go after market muffler's, or generic.

Thanks Mate chat soon

before you do your exhaust, think of what your doing (engine wise) down the track
you don't want to have to do it all again in 6 mths time

Thanks Steve well i picked up the nl last nite from kev's gee this lane has a mind of its own...
Yeah the nl smokes those 235/60/16s tyres in 1st n 2nd without hesitation now

And for the DF its starting to have power its amazing what the right system can do
think'n of doing the top end in the df now get some flow

NL & LTD should be at dyno this week

Big Thanks to Kev for putting up and throwing back whatever the lane would throw at him problem wise
what took a workshop 3 months with no completion took kev 3 nights and its now running spot on
Think i know where im taking my car's from now

yeAH me and kev were playing with this on saturday .
We got it going but turned out to be a shitty fuel pump/filter

along with a crap load of other things that ended up being lots of little problems running into one major one

Hahah, so you sorted it out after i left Kev?
She wasn't happy when i was there!

yeah took me till sunday arvo to finally get it sorted

fkn fkn fkn grrrrrr fairlane

but all is good now.....real good
