    Yeah the silver I've got (rattle can) is the bright killrust gal looking type and would look shit. What I want actually looks like the silver engine enamel I've got on my rocker covers. But I haven't got enough of that left for four wheels.

    Hey guys. I've got a set of bf xr6 rims that I've fixed a heap of gutter rash and scuff marks on. Just wondering what silver/alloy color paint people use when they're respraying or touching them up. I've got them all prepped and ready to paint but the silvers I have are just too silver or bright to match the original paint. Cheers.

    If you get an engineers you've got some sort of guarantee and paper work that its legal. Then when you get pulled over (and you will being on you're p's) you can wave it in their face and then they'll dick you for something else:D

    I bought a different copy and the vacuum advance diaphragm shit its self then the ignition module shit as well. I replaced both with the parts off a 250 dissy and all was good again. I suppose you get what you pay for. If you buy a copy dont expect it to last for ever. I bought it cos I needed a dissy and didn't have the cash for a brand name one. It works fine now. Especially with the eagle 10.5mm leads on it and a gt40 coil.

    Much of a muchness, they do rattle around a lot less, but look a bit uglier :)

    You will need an EB-ED handbrake cable to suit sedan if u use them brakes... or like me go pfftt!!! I stop with my feet not me hands!

    Looks I don't really car about Clint.  Your not going to see them behind the snowies anyway.  As long as they work i'll be happy.  I don't use the handbrake anyway.  The handbrakes in x series are all shite!!

    You will also need to fit a metric end on the flexi line to the T block on the housing to the body, then u will need the wider lower rear control arm bushes in your bottom arms. And yes a tailshaft.

     

    Fittings aren't a prob for me clint:D 3/8 X 24 male to 10 X 1 female adaptors are something I've made sure we have in stock at work. Wider bushes is something else I hadn't thought of thanks.

    why bother just go with the e series and get the rubber line remade to save all the work ,i did e series into an xf years ago and went back to xf brakes it was a pain

     

    also just alter the e,series hand brake ratchets itl all work

     

    Like I said Rev I've got a set of braided hoses for and xe diff.  I'd like to use these if I can.  I'm hearing you about it being easier but I don't mind a bit of work.  If need be I'll do that and make a new set of braided hoses for those calipers and sell my other set..  I've never had an e series diff to look at before so I wasn't sure of what the difference are.

    Yep great info there rob. This was how I was trying to read what my motor wss doing before I put the wideband in. Old school way to do it but it works if you know how an do it properly. Wideband is the shiz tho. Once that was in I havent looked back.

    Suppose this is in the right section... lol

    Was wondering if anyone had tried swapping the old wiper motor out of an x series for something newer. Mine in the xe is slow as compared to the one in my ba and in my work van. Fast in it is the same as slow in the others. Was just curious whether or not an e series maybe could be made to fit. All the rain here in vic at the minute has me thinking about it...
