opinion on my current car? 4.0 i6

>>16836180
Yeah nah. Decently powerful. Shit autos. Shit door seals. Fuck out front ball joints often. look awesome for how old they are. Comfortable enough.

all of this plus shit brakes

even with new rotors and pads they always shudder because caliper design a shit

>>16836227
>>16836248
autos always fuck out in the generation i have due to poor design and the door seals are fucking annoying,
just before i got it the brakes were completely replaced and i havent noticed any shudder when braking

>>16836263
the auto's are ok IF you keep them cool (which you cant) and if you keep clean fluid up to them (no dipstick)

>>16836267
i wish i had gotten a manual instead but autos were alot cheaper

Haydn, is that you?

>>16836276
yeah get a t56 commodore they are pretty cheap still and usually can get a ls1 for around $5k

>>16836278
nope sorry,
>>16836280
on p plate restrictions though im going to attempt to find someone to swap this for a vx ss as soon as the restrictions are off

>>16836297

I've got a BA mk2 and experience no brake shudder or warped calipers. Helps if you dont use shit brand rotors and brake like a spastic all the time.

Autos are tried and tested 4 speed BTR gearbox. Good for factory power outputs, again unless you drive like a retard. If you must drive like a retard, fit a good tranny cooler.

Lower ball joints should be changed every 200,000, otherwise they can let go unexpectedly and your wheel will be facing sideways. Anyone who says they throw them all the time is a retard who doesn't spend any money on preventative maintenance.

Anyone who says they are shit and unreliable usually drives like a retard, uses the cheapest oil on sale at supercheap and often has a different coloured panel somewhere on the car.

Can get most parts from ebay when something needs replacing.

Don't ever order exhaust components from "Dandy exhausts". They claim direct fit but are definitely not.

Door seals are a bit crappy sometimes tho.

They are a solid car, comfy a.f. and if you treat them well they will last until ICE are no more.

RIP.
A buddy of mine here in the states just bought a 4.0 turbo motor. His brothers v6 mustang threw a rod so they're swapping it some time this year. In his words "Ford should have stayed inline instead of switching to half the cylinders falling away"

>>16836305
Nah generally there's a low spec and a high spec SS. For example in vy-vz the high spec ones get fog lights, leather seats, 6 disc CD player with cup holders either side of it, climate control and more speakers. They are quite nice. Also V8 Calais don't hold their value like SS do

>>16836354
DONT get the flogged low spec models

You can usually tell if it has a high spec cluster

Ah, you're talking about the difference between an SV8 and an SS.

Nothing, berating a manufacturer based on normie memes is stale. I've owned Fords all my life and have never experienced anything they're given shit for.
