Watching my baby drive away,now waiting to get my lowered black xr6 turbo with premium sound and a ford flash tuner which can give up to 300kws of power had a test drive man it can shift not as good my red beast but with a few more mods should be good will post pics soon
sad day indeed - i been there man, know how u feel about your xr6t - have u bought it already?? which model did u get?? i "might" be getting one in a few weeks but it has to be a BF or BF MK II model lol
What made you chose to sell your zed for an xr6t? Just wanted a new car with the reliability that comes with it or?
with the xr6t i reakon the handling and brakes need to be upgraded with power levels over 300rwkw...rotors warp and if you like going for a nice twisty cruise it handles bit like a boat...those are the 2 things on the to do list with that amount of power...but easy to get power out of though especialyl with flash tuner PS: forgot to ask is it going to be a manual or a auto/tiptronic gear box....if its going to be tiptronic watch out with higher power levels because the like to break...my uncle has gone through 2 gear boxs already and had to get a complete stage 3 gearbox put in, with kevlar mixed with something put into it to strengthen the whole part...but he is making 365rwkw though...and his rotors are warped!...so an upgrade for those are necessary...hope that helps you Ryan
you are going to regret it personally i couldnt give up hill runs for the xr. its only good for one thing. and thats straight lines. in saying that you will crack a good time on the 1/4 mile with moderate power put through it. dont be fooled that the new cars are more reliable. my mate has one and already gone thru heaps of parts that he'd had to replace due to failure...esp when you start putting more power into it make sure you have money on the side because things will go...
yeah i agree with chad, something to be extremely careful about is the plastic pulleys...chads friend had one go on the skidpan day....and my uncles nearly did too...keep an eye on them
its so stupid to have a pulley made of plastic i reckon. the thing just melted at the skidpan lol... since then he has had bearings go, both driveshafts go at diff times. and other things i cant pinpoint but thats just some to point out... it all happens when you start putting more power into them.... apart from that though the power is mint, and they have alot of potential. but again usefull for only one thing... dont know if all of them have weak suspension and drive train parts but just wat ive seen. sorry im not being biased or anything i still love them and get all excited when im in his car pumping almost 300rwkw. and the spool noise and doseee...lol...its a machineee there really quick in straight lines.
where did you hear that crap lol ,thats far from the truth especially when it comes to xrt's,as chaddy says,great in a straight line when they are going well,minced meat in the twisties All the best with the new car XCRUZXx
