That is an AU XR6 VCT motor, hence the tickford wings. Probably been retrofitted to said EF

The Ticky badge is fitted to the Variable cam timing unit ( VCT). They were only fitted to the AU's, were an option on the XR6 (sedan), and when they were fitted with them, they also got IRS, which means also, you got ABS with it.

:lol: i know what the motor is and i know what it comes in, but seeing as though im lazy and dont wanna swap the motor for just that logo, can be be retrofitted to just the EF motor with out it being functional, although by looking at it more carefully i dont think that would be possible would it :oops:

i dont really understand why you want it... its sort of like putting turbo badges on a xr6 to me.... but i think its a solenoid of the front that the badge is fitted to...? if your lazy then i wouldn't bother :) would require at least swapping heads etc...?
