Boosted Falcon

This is my 03 BA ute, 5.4L 3V Barra engine.
Was stock when I got it in July 09 apart from a 2 1/2" single exhaust.



One of the first things I did was put on a 3 1/2" intake pipe & cut a hole in the front of the airbox to help it breath, and painted the engine cover.



I decided to have a play with putting a dvd system in and have come up with this. A 9" lcd screen running from a Pioneer dvd unit.



I've lowered it all round with reset leaves in the rear and Lovells superlows (for a 6cyl ) in the front. I've also put on a different tray which is much shorter and has LED taillights.









There's a few more thing's I'll add on when I get some more pics

Nice ute.

love the height of this, looks awesome on the road.

nice clean ute. not a fan of the stereo set up but other than that it looks good.

i've seen you on the road a few time's now.... looking good
did this have "astro turf" on the tray at one stage ?

ummmm yeah it did. Was good for a laugh but its gone now and has black marine carpet.

Finally put this up shum . Good work mate . Keep up the good work

Love it!

Looks great, any shots of the tray showing the taillight setup?

That looks sick.

Where did you get the tray from? I love the look of a tray back.

found a pic of it with the "grass" on the tray



Also a couple of other things that I've done to it.
The steering wheel was knackered when I got it so I got my hands on an XR leather wheel



Also managed to jam a full size 12" sub and box between the seats. (doesn't leave much room for anything else )

i remember the "turf" from the VSS cruise a while back
i also remember the bass from the system/sub.... alot of noise out of so little space !!!!

Looks so neat and clean, love it, any plans to shave the back wall of the cab mate?

Quick update...

About a week before AFD I ound a fibreglass BF GT fornt bar for next to nothing on ebay with a bit (a lot) of damage. So I spent many hours at night after work that week repairing, prepping and painting the bar so I could chuck it on for AFD.

Anyway here's a few pics from the day - oh and that's on springs.. no fancy airbags around here!







Also some of you may have already seen it, but I cant seem to find any pics..
I've put a lip spoiler on the rear of the cabin. I'll take a couple of pics tonight hopefully and chuck them up.

springs and flat tyres

Looked good mate. Heard you had some fun trying to get out off AFD

Can't believe it's that low without bags! Looked awesome at AFD

That is sweet, there is one like yours gettin around up here but that front bar at that height is

Bought the ute some prezzies recently, just gotta get the time to install them.





Also got a shiny new radiator and an external trans cooler is on the way..

lol...
have fun
