some progress: firstly i gave some bits of the interior a tidy up in the xf before turning my attention to the ed. i swapped the tickford rocker cover to one i painted over a year ago for abit of a change then removed the seats ready for the LTD gear to go it.
   also for anyone interested my old rear seat and door trims will be fore sale i may also part with the recaros if someone makes me an offer i can refuse. Also my side skirts and front bar are for sale i will be making a for sale thread in the next few days.

there hasnt been alont done since last update i decided i preferd the feel of the recaros over the ltd seats and put the old interior back in
updates will be dying down quite soon we went under new contract at work new employer is only keeping one person so me and dad are losing our jobs we finish friday.so once i pay my licence and 2 regos ill have a little money from work pay and my tax to do the following to the XF. 350 holley im buying off a mate $140 xe spac im buying off another mate for $200 grabbing bucket seats manual convo and sunroof  and im pretty sure its lowerd so ill use the springs to. saturday i was given a rear bumper off a ea it needs a little work but it was free after all, so i took it out today first time its been out of the driveway since its been buffed.    rear bar will be painted when the weather warms up abit i have enough paint in the shed to get it done.

Looks like the respray tidied it up nicely. I reckon it would look great with the red stripe colour coded.
The 18s look huge on it too! |

picked up my manifold and exhaust today.
redline torker manifold   fitted the carby studs put a couple of bolts in and put the holley on to see how things were looking   2 things that need attention is the fuel line and the throttle cable is to short. i then had a look into fitting the new exhaust it didnt go to plan the bolts are rusted and stupidly tight dad had a go and stripped a bolt so i gave up the exhaust is 2.5inch cat back redback middle section with a redback straight through muffler and a auspac tail pipe. it would of been easier to get the bloke at the exhaust shop to do it but the cars to low to get on the hoist  may try get it on the hoist at my brother inlaws work may even sell if i get a good offer

yesterday i got the old exhaust off ended up unbolting it all from the manifold cut it at the diff and got it out cut the bolts off and reinstalled the cat.
 while jacked up i thought this looked kinda cool   anyway i went to the local exhaust shop this morning to get some nuts and bolts he gave me the nuts bolts and 4 washers for free came home and fitted the front section the tail pipe isnt on yet ill have to do that on the hoist as theres not enough clearance to get it over the diff so i took it for a drive and at this time am a little disappointed its very quite and pretty much sounds stock. i parked the car for abit and decided to take it out again to let it carbon up had it idling for 10mins jumpedin to go and it started idling roughly then it died now it doesnt go  wind it over starts revs up then dies give it throttle its back fires i noticed the fuel pump wasnt priming dad called ract out he said its definately the fuel pump so went to get the pump out and that big round plastic thing is bloody tight. how do you guys usually undo it? i have a pump in the shed its not a convenient time for it to break down with the xf off the road aswell.
