just a quick question. im wondering if anybody has had any trouble with the fire wall cracking on there manuel falcons , mine has cracked around the clutch cable and was asking if anybody has had this problem befor and how much i would be up for to be fixed.



I think I'll be up for getting that same prob fixed. Mark @ ITs Peformance Campbelltown can apparently fix this pretty cheaply. His details are in the section of the site.

Good work with the guide.
Just a point, steer clear from Lukey extractors/headers, there not worth much at all (there exhaust are awsome though).


Just wonderin why we should steer clear of lukey headers?

Hey guys great site!!

At the moment i have advance headers on my eb Xr6 and i was wondering if it is worthwhile changing to pacemaker or jmm extractors. Futhermore, i am looking to install an Xr8 rampod from unifliter and was wondering if it works with the EA Muiltipoint intake tube?

Cheers Darran

dude ive got advance headers on my car and ive been told by a few people that they are fine and possibly just as good as the pacies, not sure if its the comp or normal ones. probably the best bang for ya buck. have a quick search of the forums and youl see a few people are running them. ive got no complaints so far
