its a massive tease though, hot day and im staring straight into a shop full of nice, fresh, cold beer, rum, bourbon, goon bags :D just kidding on that last one, mmm long island ice tea wouldnt be too bad though :wink:

i think ill turn my shocks down to #2 because #3 feels a bit too hard for my liking, altho its nice to drive into corners :D

i tryed it on number 1 for some lulz and all i can say is, that will come in handy for drag racing :D
take off hard and the back of the car just drops, so i guess the quik transfer of weight to the rears wil be good for gripping off the line

Tested this arvo, my EB sits at 2000rpm @ 110km/h
Before I fitted the k&n filter and XH snorkel it used to sit at 2100rpm @ 110km/h
I'm putting it down to how well they can breathe 8-)
I'm expecting to be corrected too btw...

*Edit: That's with stock 3:45 diff gears..


Seems very low RPM for 3.45.

No it's not. My XR6 did that.

Remember, torque converter lockup


The reason I said that was my auto EF revs at 2200 or there abouts and has a 3.08.

been thinking the last 2 days, do i sell up on the el and move camps to a b series xr turbo(rusty hunks of poo) or save enough money to pour into a ed as a race car\weekend car, reason being i think i can make my money back on it now, buy a decent 4 cyl at the auctions or on the side of the road, save up and build a decent auto, id rather not slap a snail onto the el and blow a t5 or 3 and auto has quicker times on the 1\4, i do like the idea of a bf turbo with zf trans, but the bodies are already showing they are poo,

Mate this is one of my many thoughts throughout the day too lol :roll:
If I didn't spend any money on the EB and saved all my money I'd probably be able to get into a BF Turbo at the end of the year when I get my blacks!
But then it's like should I blow the money on another car which I don't really need or keep saving for a house?
At the end of the day e series parts are cheap and they're easy enough to fix yourself!
I suppose it just depends what you want in a car :)

Car looks awesome mate. I've also been thinking of a house too, but I want to do my car up so its in a great condition and I can be proud to drive along side of a newer model and have mine looking better than the one its next to.

thanks,
unfortunatly i dont wanna be renting all my life, well at least dont wanna be waiting for my father to drop dead to spend his inheritance on a house, the way i see it, the more i can save myself the more of the inheritance can be spent on a mid life crisis sports car :D
my dad would prefer to see me set myself up for life and spend his money on something id like, he always wanted to do up a hot rod but the alcohol got the best of him and now thats all he does :roll:
