Thats JR's car isnt it? he was the editor a while back IIRC, didn't he get fired or resign or something?

Post by **Commando** » July 16th, 2008, 7:18 pm

What's your source mate? Got an article or link at all?

Kenaz · Post by **Kenaz** » July 16th, 2008, 7:18 pm

JR isn't the editor any more.

I do like that car, nice wheels and big AP Racing brakes. Also ran some decent 1/4 mile times IIRC.

Those pic's look like they were taken at Fowles!

Post by **needfordspeed** » July 16th, 2008, 7:26 pm

Yeah looks like Fowles, wonder what the full story is...

Post by **Sunboost** » July 16th, 2008, 7:26 pm

Isn't that line at Fowles the government and ex-Lease cars?

*edit* He hasn't been on the Street Fords forums in 3 months.. http://forum.streetfords.com.au/member.php?u=2

Steady · Post by **Steady** » July 16th, 2008, 7:42 pm

Wasn't he selling it a while back?
I seem to remember it being advertised for sale..
Maybe thats the coke...

Post by **t2te50** » July 16th, 2008, 7:43 pm

Spot on guys it was at Fowles. You just don't know what you may find when your there. I think it got passed in at $22,000, it has been thrashed and on second motor. Watched a street fords DVD rescently and the guy does seem like a bit of a lunatic.

I think he sold it, and he is now the editor of that lesser ford mag Performance ford...he got fired from Street ford i believe.

He had a XE ghia as well, and it looks like its getting a stroker or somthing...

i want the GT

AaronEF8 · Post by **AaronEF8** » July 16th, 2008, 8:28 pm

Didn't JR go on to write for Performance Ford magazine?

That BA would be nice with a 2 tone black on white paintjob.

[edit] Nick beat me to it, he did get the sack.

Plenty of MK1 BAs have popped motors too, I wouldn't stress over that.
What bottom went back into it though? F6, Atomic?

Post by **needfordspeed** » July 16th, 2008, 8:55 pm

Yeah the CFI GT's came stock with gas from factory, it's the MPI ones that you gotta look for, my mates dad has one and he put a cop chip in it, has a switch that you can flick and it'll go faster.

Is that the one running a NOS Fogger system, MoTec system exhuast and a stand alone fuel managment system? I heard that had enough power to blow the welds on the intake?

Nice way to spend 10g.

Kenaz · Post by **Kenaz** » July 16th, 2008, 9:12 pm

Johnny Tran told me a couple of 4L CFI's with a cop chip running straight propane would pull a premium one week before race wars.

You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your car... Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?
