Recently purchased the new FG G6ET MKII, Love every thing about it. Drive's like dream, so smooth, interior is very well done and the power is just mind blowing. Cheers all. |

Hi all,
Been lurking a while and thought I'd better say hi. I mined some of the great info here before I bought my 05 Territory, which was a bit of a step up from my '88 XF Ute. I've had a few Fords over the years, from a turbo Escort Panelvan nearly 30 years ago, to a series of Falcon wagon company cars more recently. Thanks for this great resource of knowledge and inspiration. |

Hi Everyone...........
I need some advice on modifying an F6.......FG series........... I have done some research and see benefits of E85 tune, with 14% more power over Ron98........... Does anyone have any modifieg FG F6 series cars for sale?? I am looking for ones from a reputable workshop like Autotech Engineering in NSW, or Nizpro in Melbourne. For your information there is a clampdown on cars that do not meet roadworthy, so I need one that is Euro 3 or 4 complaint for EPA reasons... Nizpro stage 2 kit makes 320 rwkw, or 360 rwkw with E85, and is actually better for the engine once properlu retuned. Nizpro stage 3 is 360 rwkw, or 41o rwkw withE85. Willing to speak to anyone who has a good F6 from a reputable workshop. Thanks

Hey Everyone
just realised I did not introduce myself when i got here about a month or so ago (i was just really excited to share my car with everyone) sorry for the rudeness. so hello everyone I'm James and I love Cars with a passion and have had them in my blood since i was a young tacker when my dad would take me to the drags as he raced his altered in NZ. i work at a ford dealer I have a 67 ZA and it's my first major ground up nuts and bolts (every little piece) build. i'm loving being apart of this community and there is so much stuff to learn and there is such a great bunch of people, I love the projects section and probably spend most of my time in there thanks everyone

Hello everyone,
My name is Todd and I am from South Australia. I currently own a grey BA Ford Falcon XR6 (My first car ever), it is stock as a brick as I have very little knowledge about cars unfortunately. I would love to upgrade to a MKII BF XR6T in either blue, toxic green, yellow or orange and so that up. I do need quite a lot of money before my dreams come true though! Anyway, it is nice to meet you all and I hope to learn a thing or too from this community! |

Hi all,
Funny as it may seem, But I have always been a Holden Man, But I ended up with four Fords, All at the same time, Two Effies, F100 and a F350, and a 94 Fairmont Ghia and an 80 Ford LTD, I drove a Holden 76 4 door GTS for 30 years, The 2 Effies are my work trucks, Had them for years, Why Effies you may ask, Holden dont make any thing like them, They are Magic trucks and are near undestructable, Love them both, I found this forum because I am trying to sell my Fairmont Ghia, in one peice or part it out, And a few other bits and pieces of Ford parts, Fairmont GHIA and LTD parts and F350 Parts as well. I am just retired and need to cut down on my vehicles, I will be here for a while, so see you round, Cheers Brian, |
