    I have 28inch diameter tyres under my xe, didn't see what car this is in but could possibly go taller tyre Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk

    15x10 on a xw falcon

    ~9inch rim will pull in the sidewall more on a 295 tyre compared to a 10inch... Hence easier fit Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk

    Backspacing

    as stu5766 said it will bring it too 4.75, spacers are ok as long as you have long enough studs but i still don't like them personally

    BEST AND WORST LOOKING AUSSIE FORD

    Don't have a favourite as i like at least one in each series for its own look but worst would be the base model AU S1... Its just outright boring

    which 4.0l engines will fit xh ute ?

    El/ef will go straight in with your bolt on's, can even go au with a mod to the sump and some other small changes Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
  9. They don't have a filter from factory if memory serves, as that's why everyone upgrades the oil feed with a kit that has one included Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
  10. gcg.com.au they also do Garrett and can supply rebuild kits and probably cores as well Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
  11. Holset and Borg Warner are some possible cheaper options Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
  12. Yeah haha was chatting to him at one of the street series rounds about month ago at willowbank, definitely a neat little setup. Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
  13. Talk to kendall mate, he'll give you decent advice for what ever end goals you have
  14. Hey guys going to attempt to make my own brake lines for my XE soon so i'm after a little bit of info, if anyone has a good diagram of the route for the lines and the thread type thats used as well would be really helpful. The car doesn't have any lines in it atm so i'm working with a blank canvas which makes it hard... Thanks in advance

    Awesome thanks heaps for that, will get under and see what I've got left to work with. Might have the lines on diff but if going from rest of the car it may be a complete redo haha Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk

    Brake Lines

    It's going into shop very soon, mates actually having an open day on the 7th November, so you can come up then and we can have a good gander... Might have started on it already but if you got kids or anything he's gonna have jumping castle and dance machines etc etc can make a day of it and can finally meet ya and thank you in person for the help in parts for my old ED lol

    Brake Lines

    So the first one's are what bolt into the master cylinder correct and its saying single flare but your saying its a ball flare thats used? and the second lot is for hardline to brake hose, which is double flare? They look to be the same thread type which makes it easier, if they are different to suit the single/double/bubble flares i'll just make them all the same as i'm making the rubber/braided lines as well and can do them to suit what ever flare

    Brake Lines

    cheers for that info, i'm buying 2 rolls (7.6m/25ft each) so should leave me enough to practise my bends and and flares, and any errors i make... I'd like to try to keep the front lines as close to factory as possibly but may get the personal touch to keep it looking clean once i get an idea how they're run. The diff in question is a shortened 9inch so i'll make that section to suit, how it runs down to the diff i'd need to see how it was from factory first but like the front section it may get modified to suit my taste's as well. Definitely need to find thread sizes (master cylinder in particular) as i can't buy the tube nuts and any other bit's i might need till then, worst case is i get a master cylinder and take it to nut and bolt place to find out

    Turbo 4L

    Only au sumps will bolt onto au blocks as they are forged not pressed steal like pre au. They also bolt into the mains as well as block... Yeah some clearance issues depending on model, pretty simple mod if you can weld ally Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk

    do the obvious, arp rod bolts, head bolts, springs.. tune is gonna be the biggest investment as if its shit you'll detonate even a built motor

    Possibly, according to details they can handle up to ~600hp and with the fast 2.0 supposedly up to 1200hp. Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk

    Yeah it's a little pricey for basically an injected carby, even the msd atomic efi is 3k which is about the same as the smaller FAST kit Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk
