hey fellas,

last time i had a topic i was asking your advice on weather to respray my EA or not. Well since then...i woke upto myself..and have always loved the shape of the ef/el's..and decided i wouldnt waste my time on the ea.

Yesterday me and dad went down to Roselands - from kempsey to pick up this magic looking 94' ef fairmont i seen advertised on the net. i am so stoked about it - it has recently been resprayed as there was abit of hail damage awhile ago. but that had been fixed. 160.000km's which is jack s**t as it is 13yrs old, cd player,new exhaust.it has been well looked after and the BEST thing was that we picked it up for a BARGAIN price.

so im really happy with her. many mods to come. but first she must be dropped and a set of rims must be applied. also , later on i'l be fitting an ef xr6 body kit and will have 18" rims. which model of king springs would be best for this? giving that the kit will be on it and the rims will be?..low, super low, ultra low? p.s it needs to be a legal height as im a p plater and any chance the cops get to crusify me they will.


here's some pics.

Looks good mate! All it needs it new headlights and then it'll look like new

thanks mate.

yeh, that was one of the first things we noticed. how much the sun had actually faded the lenz. is it possible to just buy a new lenz? or do i have to buy the complete light?

this link may help with u'r lights

cheers, thanks for that.

Looks like Till_Linds car lol

So how much did ya pay?

nice colour mate.. its amazing the luxary she feels like after hopping out of an ea as i did when i upgraded to my current fairmont..

will look great dumped on big rims..

$1900. just had new water pump installed + new radiator.

thanks fordfreak. yeh its a huge change in feel. there doesnt seem to be as much leg room tho for the passengers and driver? just something i noticed?

cannot wait to drop her and add rims. your ef looks magic.

does anyone know roughly how much a set of king springs + munro shocks will be? i gather it will vary between models..but just an estimate. cheers.

Wow that is pretty cheap. I paid $72 for my set of king springs on ebay ^_^

yeh im still stoked..we had to head straite down afta i knoked off work so we could pick it up as someone else was gonna come buy it on sunday haha.

ohk that sounds like a good price!..what model did u get? im gathering that was for 4 springs? they still feel nice?

Yeh they feel awesome. They were used I might add but not for very long. A set will pop up sooner or later on there.

Lol, does look a bit like mine. Is it heritage or polynesian green?

Go some super-lows, definately look tougher then, even with stock rims, hehe.

damn thats a cheap price, that certainly is a bargain you picked up there!

mines done less km though and it turns 19 this year

KEMPSEY! I know kempsey. Usto live in the s**t hole. Naa i take that back its not too bad a place. sorry for goin off track here. nice ride btw.

Direct from the King spring factory on the GC for new SSL springs and shocks to suit ef/el i was quoted around the $800 mark installed. It was around $600ish without installation but like MooseMan said try ebay. it seems to be where the bargins at.
