Ride: EB1 Fairmont Ghia T5 Wagon

Location: Seven Hills, Sydney
NSW, Australia

The trip comp does not work at all acurately on LPG as it gets part of it's info from the injector Pulses, and while the ECU is still trying to send signals to the injectors it will send that info to the trip comp, but when compared to the hego ect, it doesn't all add up correctly.

I am considering taking mine out, as it beeps a lot telling me I have no fuel and the distance to empty is always incorrect.

Cheers mate. Sadly it's barely getting driven. I went to start it and the battery was dead flat so I put it on the charge and then washed and vacuumed it today.

I'm back at uni so I only really use it on the weekends... Catch the bus the rest of the time. I kind of want a motorbike again :P

Already thought of that... It's on my "wish list" just above getting a Raptor supercharger kit...

I've managed to continue supressing the mod bug lately. Even with a few $$$'s lying around. I'm happy with the car for now and every time I do something new, something else brakes....

Yeah your car is freaking awesome man, love the AV system (its kinda what i want to go for eventully) where did you get all the seats done? they look awesome. I wanna get one of the momo steering wheels too awww so jealous!

And the bodykit is great.. i want to try and get a EL GT lookalike one for mine but have the bonnet and the lights the same..so it will look like an EL GTXR lol. even that bigass wing! hahaha. keep up the good work mate.

Cheers mate. Always good to get compliments.

I've been fixing up a bunch of interior, exterior and electrical niggles that have been bugging me for ages.

I have something performance wise in the mix. Nothing huge, no boost, but that will be fun.....

Then I need to have a good hard look at my brakes and suspension bushes.

Always stuff to do :(

Yeah i know what ya mean, ive spent atleast $1700 on my xr6 in the last 3 weeks, suspension upgrade/Pacemaker headers and some intake bits to finally fix up my custom intake setup.

Plus i reckon i spent about $200 on cleaning stuff, found a product that can restore the colour/shine to the rubber seals and the red strips around the car. looks alot better now. :)

Still id love to chuck a turbo/ supercharger on as well, but i think my next investment will be on upgrading the braking system. :roll:
