thanks guys for your honest feedback, i appreciate it heaps!
Ive put alot of wrench time in to this car as you might have guessed. At the moment its in bits but am busting my balls to get it ready for summer.
We'll have to go on some night cruises sook ok?
As for engine, for the moment its pretty much a stock elxr8 engine which has a lot of punch (15.0/98 mph) but is soon to go under the knife...
Photos were professionally done by photographer for performance ford feature.

Thanks again for your thoughts, very much appreciated

wow, just found some other pics of my car here aswell.....
shows this car has come a long way...

What a weapon! Congrats on an awesome build mate. I like the colour too :wink:
BTW, I love the look of the quick-shifter, very neat job. I have seen others attempt this mod and fail misserably.
Excellent work, Keep the pics comin
Cheers,

Very nice car, what was all that business about the EL GT rotors with the BA callipers? :D

Yeah but the EA/EB/ED/EL NA/NC/NL DA/DC/DL All had the screw holes in the same position where as for whatever reason, ford decided to mount the screws in the EF/NF/DF internal to the doorjam.

And I meant in your old thread you mentioned about running the EL GT rotors and the BA Callipers but you were weary of stepping on the sponsors toes so didn't provide details beyond that. :(
