Cool thanks mate. Have to put up with it for another couple of months then, all good

Any idea how long til they be avaliable again Cav? I'll try ring around and find some stock i guess.

Hi all,

I remember a while ago finding a kit to do the door hinges on ebay, my xf has typical dropped hinges. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Cant seem to find it now

Cheers

Whats that rear bar off, ea?

I flow tested a BBM and a Log manifold on the same head today which was a EF 94ab head, the Log manifold outflowed the BBM by 11cfm. Just thought you guys would be interested in that.

That is interesting. I changed from log manifold to bbm on my speedway engine and gained about 10kw and a shitload of torque, odd.

Ahhh that sucks dude!

Yeah, that looks horn!!! Billet is always fuckin nice!

Yeah, I have a NOS sample, and they said they could do them, if I bought it to em.

I'd be able to recreate them from a sample also.

Just ordered a grey 22 tooth gear off ebay, thanks fellas

 

 

Do you mind if I ask where you bought it from and how much it cost?

 

 

I need one aswell.

I prefer to know what speed im actually doing rather than trying to remember that it always reads higher haha

Yeah its a bit annoying sometimes though. Haha. Was driving along earlier doing 75 on the speedo and was only just doing 60 haha

Thats the go, i'll try that! They sell them on ebay then im gathering?

I've just gone from 2.92 to 3.45 in my XF. Speedo was perfect with the 2.92's and now reads about 12-14kmh above what i'm actually doing.

Anyone got any idea how to rectify this problem?

Cheers

Haha thats been under discussion for a long time mate

Knox carpets in vic have good rep

Where'd you go mate? I seen mount barker was rained out, there was a few others in wa that got rain too i think

 

Yeah thats getting very high up there for a crossflow! Chuck a 3.08 in it and try that. Would be good to know the box ratio too though, its a pain with single rails because theres 163946 different ones hahaha

 

 

Sounds horn but hahahaha

Hahaha it would do! I like the sound of my car just smashing the limiter flat out but its not going to help win races haha

For something that size in my car (EF with 4L injected) i'd deffinately be starting with 3.08

Most run a T5 in ef onwards. And either T5 or getrag in the commodores.

Final drive = gear ratio in box x diff ratio then you just finely tune it with tyre sizes

Depends on the tracks you go to as to what ratio to run. I've got 4 or 5 different ratios that i use depending where i go. Maybe try speak to a few other guys and find out what final drive they run?

I'll message you his details later tonight if you like mate. Good tyres deffinately help, is he running 14" or 15" rims?

Gee that kinda sucks - what happens if you have a good front ender - the car is useless or you have to destroy another XF to make yours whole - there bloody isn't many good ones around anymore. 

With no name brand shocks allowed that makes it kinda hard.  weren't bilstein shocks standard on XF 50th anniversary????

Oh well as long as you can change the springs good shocks like Koni etc should be up to the task. 

Man why do they make it so hard - I'm glad I run modified sedans where at least you can make them handle like a race car should with coil overs etc. 

Gotta do a cut and shut or reshell. Not many xf's getting around as racecars these days either, most people have upgraded to later models.

Bilstein's and koni's are allowed because they're a standard replacement part. Only internally adjustable ones (must be removed to adjust them)

You can do a lot with a good shock and spring package, could put you onto a mate of mine in melbourne that does koni's and king springs if you like Clevo120Y. His suspension packages would be in like 80% of top running street stocks australia wide.
