George, just after a price for a throttle body for a 1.5l festiva motor. Just thinking about something V12 related.

I won't insult your intelligence by telling you exactly how much but, you would need more than $3000.00 to buy one. As a matter of fact one of them is $5400.00 :shock: :shock: :shock:



Actually, I already knew the answer, I just love hearing it. AND seeing the look on the parts employees face as they stumble over the price themselves and quadruple check it to make sure its right.

hi George. I'm wondering if the ba/ bf have different exhaust part numbers in comparison to the fg? thinking from the cat back for a stock falcon, xr8, and gs/gt if each part is different? looking at doing an exhaust change shortly, if i could bolt up stuff from a ba/bf then it would make life so much easier in obtaining the parts...


The rear muffler is the same from BF onwards for the XT and G6 but the XRs and G6Es have a different part number. The MAIN muffler is a different number.

You might be able to use the BF one as the current Wagon uses same Front pipe and Catalytic convertor as the FG.


so if i get the rear half of a bf exhaust with twin outlets, like a gt or such, then the mufflers should fit in place and only need simple mods to attach to the main muffler? not sure wether id be better off sourcing and modifying a gt exhaust to fit versus an aftermarket custom job. if in the main the cars are the same undernearth, and the exhausts take the same route it should be possible

I couldn't see why you would not be able to fit, the sill panel is wide enough but you would either have to get rid of the BA plates and add rubber or, cut the BA ones so the later type would site better.

Hey Geoge,
Can you get me a price on the rubber grommet that goes into the EF/EL header tank for the level sensor and are you coming down Friday night?
