Well for me minor cosmetic is cheap, so I'll knock that on the head for now.
I'm just going to settle with xr sways, $130 for the lot inc GST. So cheap little change... And another step closer to beating xr6's lol

I thought the XT and XR6 had the same sway bars?

I don't think so, the guy I bought the exhaust from (used to work for fpv) said they were different...

Only one way to find out really.... Find someone with an FG XR6 and get them to check the tag on the swaybar.

Or ask a ford place if the part number is different... Wish papa smurf was still about, miss that guy... He was super helpful. Nice bloke too...

Brand new brakes arrive not 5 minutes ago, according to the missus. Carline Mufflers in Enoggera install brakes, exhausts, suspension; all that good s**t. Might just wait until the rest arrive, and then get it all in at once, save me a few $$ on labour.

FG SS Inductions Big Mouth is installed, yet to go for a drive with it though. Fits nice and snugly, only problem is you have to close the bonnet fairly hard otherwise it doesn't lock, but that's no biggy.
Next on the agenda is getting the underdrives and exhaust fitted, so I'll be ringing Carline Mufflers on Monday to see when they'll be open again after these silly holidays.

Very nice. Did you get your big mouth brand new from eBay?
Can't wait till the next trip to the drags... Will get flogged but I can concede defeat to another falcon :p Umm... I had another question but I forget... I had a nice dream last night, nice low vixen red ski boat powered by the fg i6 motor cause I got a f6 motor dropped in the engine bay of the car :p

I liked it, but I'm having car withdrawals at the moment :/
No but it can't hurt and it will complement the growler when you get it. Also I think they tidy the engine bay up a little, and that's never a bad thing.

Just a quick shot of the front discs. Also the Big Mouth from up top, and through the grill (can see the scoop). I also decided to grab the chrome oil cap and PS Fluid cap, little bit of bling.

New wheels going on tomorrow, same with the brakes. Can't wait to have awesome braking power again. I'm thinking I might sand back all the gutter rash on the 17's, putty fill and then prime it ready for some gloss black paint. Would suit the car a lot more, rather than the current silver/alluminium look.
