Hello and welcome fellow falcon enthauists. I had been a member a long time ago but i had to sign up again because i havent been on for a while. But ive been getting back into looking around at all the threads for the past month or so now and ive been inspired to start doing a few things to my white 93 ed gli, the car belonged to my grandpa (R.I.P) and he had it from new. the car is in very good order the only thing i have done is add a set of advance extractors i got from the local wreckers for $100 in good nick witch is when i noticed the head gasket is weeping some coolent, the car has done 230,000 ks and the head has never been off. im going to take the the head off in january send it away to get tested and shaved if needed and while its off im going to upgrade the cam and do little things like change welsh plugs ect. i have read benj's thread on his red eb and he has given me a lot of ideas thanks benj!
things i am aiming to do with the ed are extirier add el mirrors and door handles au side indicators and sprint kit interior au centre console, el door trims, el front seats only (i like my woolen seat covers so i dont need to worry about the back)and trip computer mechanical t5 conversion, el injection manifold with el ecu and ef cluster (if anyone has dont this manifold change i would love to hear about it ) Anyways ive taken some pics at the last second ill post some more once i have done my first mod (au centre console ill do a short doco since i have not seen one yet) in a few weeks. cheers!
