Soo, im 17 and only really earn enough money to put fuel in my car.. and my car is my life, might not be much but beats walking.. but hopefully ill have a good flow of cash when if i get the diesel fitting apprenticeship im after..
well my car is a 96 ef falcon, its had some headwork done, genie headers and 2 and a half inch exhaust.. its a 5 speed and has an lsd to.. it aint no v8 supercar, but i had a drag with my cousin(his car is an ef xr8 same amount of work done and both manuals) and it was even, soo im happy with that.. its guna be a slow build, but it will happen... hoping to save some cash and lower it a fair bit, get a fairly cam, not sure which one yet, and a high flow cat heard they dont do much, but oh well and a few other mods...
heres some pics and a video of the exhaust.. hope you like..

falcon's are really easy and cheap to do stuff to.

Good luck

Off to a good start bud. Chop a coil from your springs haha, might sound dodgy but its fine and will get you by til you get some decent lowered springs.
Also, though about adding a trip computer and fairmont/xr6 dash cluster? They have the oil pressure and battery voltage gauges.

Also, manual EF Futura's FTMFW! haha

Hey mate, first off, good on ya for moddin even when you don't have the cash, you gotta dream big to get places! But anyway, nice pick up, manual and lsd are the two things I want badly for the fairmont, so much fun, first manual I drove was dads rallly car, gota love it when ur used to having to push a single spiner to slide nice, then you jump in it, and it practically beggs you to drop it out.... All done off the road at the farm btw
