Boosted Falcon

Hey guys here's my new daily again wanted something nicer then the au ute I had so I swapped my old man plus some cash for this,


It's a 03 ba xr6, 4spd auto, mercury silver, premium sound and sunroof. Everything was stock bar some slotted rotors.

The old man put his fg wheels on it then I got it.



First thing I done was bf tail lights, then came the Ghia boot with out spoiler. Then I've just been tidying it up to get it to my standards. Removed towbar, fitted a new fog lamp, de badged the side skirts, gave it a quick detail. And installed a iPhone cord. Soon after it done a coil so I grabbed some genuine second handies from my old mans work, didn't want to buy new incase it wasn't the coils,





I've ordered a bootlip spoiler for it grabbing a leather Xr interior this week sometime hopefully, a mate has an xr8 bonnet I'm trying to convince him to sell to me, then ill be grabbing a set of xyz coilovers for it, the old man wants these wheels back but I bought another set off him in worse condition ill be getting painted black till I find something better, wont be touching go fast bits plan is most of the stuff i buy can be transferred to an f6 when/if I get one,

welcome to the world of b series, looks nice n neat now you have detailed her and with fg rims.should look much better with coilovers.

Thanks mate b series are so much easier to work on aswell. Yeah will look heaps better I reckon.

Well went for a drive last night picked up a leather interior and another premium sound icc mine didn't play CDs. So I put the seats and front door trims in tonight and cleaned it up, waiting for more parts for the rear power window conversion.
And my boot spoiler arrived today will be getting the rear resprayed in a few weeks.
Stumbled across a full exhaust on eBay for 400 so grabbed that too.
So I've only got to get an xr8 bonnet and coilovers and it should be done.

Looking good Justin, keep it up

Had some sl fronts sitting around so brought some new ssls for the rear and fitted them tonight hopefully the rear settles alot more

Thanks man yeah hoping they will settle down soon it's still a little too high in the back but fronts good

Few updates got a few more parts coming aswell booked to get the rears compressed and a wheel alignment Friday

looks nice that low, not sure about black wheels, they looked better in the standard finish imo

To commodore spec for me, as in really low in the back and not so much in the front.

Looks good but every commodore is like that haha.
Does a good skid!!
Is that the coilovers now?

Nah man put them In yesterday and I agree it was commodore spec but it's fixed now

And on the way to pick them up

This was before

I like the black wheels also, something a bit different

They will do for now but I'll probably get a new set after the new year

Looking good moite!

Should I paint the boot lip?

Yes, and go back to Silver on the wheels ...and raise the height front and rear by 5-10 mm for non-commo spec. It will look sweet then.

Height will stay the same till I get the rear bagged, haha I like it black

Another vote for silver wheels and raised to a non-muzza spec height. This look was great:

I don't see how it's muzza spec I like it this height there's only like 5-10mm difference front to back, and nah I prefer black on the wheels suits it better I reckon.
blacked out abit on the rear bar aswell

Man I like this - I never liked those wheels as a factory rim, but they look good on your car lowered/painted.

Now all it needs is a pump. Mercury was one of the best BA colours I reckon

Cheers man, I'm the same hated these wheels but now they ain't that bad but ill upgrade them soon,

Yeah definitely needs a pump I get full licensed in August so I will look at buying a turbo wreck before then,

And yeah the colours grown on me I like it in the sun looks mint I reckon

Haha didn't last long, got defected on the way to Geelong last night bummer!

LOL!!!!

That is all.

Lol muzza spec to me is front standard rear slammed not too low all around, but anyway opinions vary I'm not to fussed that's the benefit of coilovers

Agree muzza spec is when a car looks like it has no springs in the rear. This just looks really low..

I love the wheel/colour combination, but the rear needs to be that 5mm higher! Bags will sort that out though I spose.

Sucks about the defect!

Eh i knew it would happen just a matter of time,
Yeah I still don't get how it's muzza but that's only his opinion I guess, yeah the wheels and colour combo work well I reckon! It will do till I get my new wheels!.

Just put a deposit on a turbo conversion pretty much everything I need I think except cat&zorst no doubt there will be more things I need I'll wait till it turns up, it's of an f6 so fpv cooler, turbo and manifold, all plumbing, aftermarket dump and oil lines,

I have a full exhaust here if you want.
It's just a stock one
Cheers.

love it dude. you can fuckin slammm b series lol
that low in an e series and you wouldn't make it over a bump in the road.

Haha cheers dude but I'll probably keep an eye out for a good aftermarket one and cat I've got till august next year till I can convert it so have a bit of time up my sleeve

Cheers man , Haha I reckon this shits all over my el with comfort wise and it's still standard rear shocks haha I barely scrape anywhere local but Geelong maccas nearly got stuck shit it was bad

i couldn't park my ute in normal car parks without it sticking half out cause it would get stuck on gutters n shit and it was as close to the tyre as yours in the front.

Yeah I have to do that now actually it's alright once your used to it, first few time it's like fuark hope it doesn't rip the bar off but it's been sweet haha

loll thats it.
looks good as though man.

Haha getting there man want new wheels pretty soon and will try to keep getting parts for the turbo conversion

So I hope to have a set of lensos in two weeks if everything goes well! If not 3 weeks I'll have them, pretty keen to get a set

Pick some new Tyres and a bonnet up last night only got the bonnet because I was pretty cheap in the end not 100 sure on the bonnet but I do like it
