seeing as your the lead go to guy about fords, my dad recently aquired a ford falcon XT mk2 rs < (or something with two letters) and anyway, its a 4.0 litre four speed auto (for ease around sydney driving) and anyway, its got optional 17 inch rims, i was with him when we test drove a copy of the car @ the dealers, and that had the 17 rims. when we got our car off the truck (delivered to our door) :) excelent service! we realised on our first drive that the suspension was very much stiffer, we thought "well it isnt the tyres because weve driven this car before" so, we went hunting for a ford mk 2 XR6 (we found many) we got to one at a car park, parked it side by side, and realised that it was really close to the XR6T's height. the next day (today) we got it next to a GT, it wasnt as low as one. do you think they could have mixed up suspension parts? or just a dud one off occurance?

Was it an SR you drove at the dealers as well though? The SR pack comes with the 17's, bodykit and sports suspension to give it more appeal so that would explain it being stiffer than a "normal" Falcon XT. The suspension tune on the car is pretty special in that the engineers were able to give it sports handling without the compromise of rock hard suspension so even on the GT's, the car is fast enough through the corners and also doesnt crash over potholes and speedbumps. The only bad thing about it is the sports suspension on the XT isnt as good as that fitted to the XR's, the XR suspension setup is completely unique

whiteballz
01-25-2005, 01:34 AM
hmm.. we know it was the SR, because there were two there (one with the nomal kit & the dvd player and our one with the special kit and the 6 stacker CD. (though now i think about it they both might have it)

i am really at a loss and its pissing me off!
lol...

thanks anyway

fpv_gtho
01-25-2005, 02:53 AM
Well its the Falcon XT Classic that has the DVD player and 6 stacker and the SR with all the sporty bits and pieces

you want to know why your car is stiffer... Ford may not have done a pre-delivery inspection on your car and have left the transport chocks in the suspension... this would make the ride super stiff... or they may have done the pre-delivery inspection but just didn't remove the transport chocks...

fpv_gtho
01-25-2005, 04:10 AM
That'd be it.....he said the car was delivered straight off the truck infront of his house afterall. Although i'd expect that would alter the ride height somewhat

SlickHolden
01-25-2005, 05:17 PM
Could just be like holden do when they give option 17-18" wheels stick the stiffer suspension on so you dont kill the suspension in the first year of driving.

Like the guy that bought a Merc and had bigger rims stuck on the seller didnt stop to think they were bigger and needed the suspension done 2 years later this guys suspension is rat shit the dealer got sacked:p $110,000 car. The dealer wanted a sale thats all he got one allright out the door:p

fpv_gtho
01-25-2005, 07:22 PM
Well thats what Ford do exactly, option sports suspension you gotta get bigger wheels, option bigger wheels you gotta get sports suspension. Option the V8 you gotta get both :p

The SR pack though has both anyway as well as the bodykit, rear spoiler, sports shifter....couple of other small things

hows the 4.0 go? im keen on a falcon in the next few months.

whiteballz
01-26-2005, 06:45 PM
dude, the 4.0 six has NO lack of grunt.

btw, he asked at the ford place, they thought he opted for the XR8 suspension... so we have a base model (or close to) falcon with xr8 suspension!!!

the six is a really good car, i would recomend one over the commie anyday, the commie isnt as solid inside the cabin...

it feels like pieces will fall off almost...

fpv_gtho
01-26-2005, 06:46 PM
Your after the T6 arent you?

whiteballz
01-26-2005, 06:47 PM
btw, do you know if there is any truth about the specs between the XR6 and the base are the same? because the engine is the same, and (usualy) the suspension etc is too..

I suppose 380nm @ 3250rpm does that :p

They definately screwed up with the suspension though, if it truly is the XR suspension then you've definately got a unique car.

Issues like that with the interior arent uncommon, comes with them being a low cost mass produced car

whiteballz
01-26-2005, 06:52 PM

Yeah engine's the same as an XT, the XR6 has the XR suspension which is stiffer than the sports suspension that shouldve been on your XT SR :p The XR6's got power rear windows and a few other things in the interior. They sell so damn many of them cause theyre only about $300 more than a Futura

Blue Supra
01-26-2005, 08:02 PM
their resale value is going to plummet because of it though:) good for P platers in 6 - 8 years time:)

fpv_gtho

The XR's usually hold about 10% stronger resale than the rest of the models, XR6's especially

Hey as for the button falling off comeon man, I have been in plenty Vy's well plenty of VY 2 Calais:D And they feel great. In the old days they wouldnt have as much care in things like that, Now they do cause you cant get away with it anymore.

How about the figures where the equal (or near to) power and lighter VZ Exec is slower than the heavier BA XT :p

whiteballz
01-27-2005, 02:31 AM
lol..

we just had a look see on a drive over inspection point.

the inspector said that the suspension was definately from a XR8.

so i guess uniqueness is pretty cool :P

fpv_gtho
01-27-2005, 02:42 AM
XR8 specifically? Or just the XR? When the BA was first released, the XR6, XR6T and XR8 shared the exact specification suspension. Gave the XR6 and XR6T great handling but didnt accomodate for the big lump of iron in the XR8 known as the BOSS :p So for the Mk2 update that and the GT got stiffer front springs. Considering your's is a Mk2 if you really did get the XR8 suspension, not only is it unique to an XT but its also unique to a I6

SlickHolden
01-27-2005, 10:12 AM
Sore a Mk2 XR on the freeway today in it's turismo like blue. Was a little to far back to have a great look at it traffic was heavy.

lol wheres the xr6t? :D
It wasn't invited lol:D

I would have thought the V8 suspension was not compatible with the 6cyl as the V8 is heavier over the front wheels. That would maek it pretty stiff.

Blue Supra
01-27-2005, 06:18 PM
stiff is good though. Sure you dont have a V8 under the bonnet too?;)

they might have accidently stuffed that too:D

fpv_gtho
01-27-2005, 08:06 PM
Well you can get too stiff in that it sacrifices ride quality day to day which usually isnt preferable. You gotta have it all balanced to get the optimum :p

Blue Supra
01-28-2005, 01:18 AM
true, for my car every day ride quality is def suffering for cornering ability, i can take a roundabout at 70 now;)

fpv_gtho
01-28-2005, 10:58 PM
Thats pretty good all things considered, but anything bigger even with the stiffer suspension i wouldnt try it, like a Falcon or anything. Its cause the Datto's so freakin light. At least it should make the hillclimb events and such you enter more interesting, as the day goes by you'll be continually trying to carry more speed into each corner

SlickHolden
01-29-2005, 03:41 PM
I take them in the vb @ 60 :D No tuned suspension here:D

fpv_gtho
01-29-2005, 11:15 PM
and no 3 wheel action with all that bodyroll either? :p

SlickHolden
01-30-2005, 09:49 AM
Nah it's really balanced good for a old thing, It gets the squills a little but never picks a wheel up , Well i really cant see to be honest:D.
But it's a hard car to get sideways does some good wheelies to but not much sideways action. The VL calais wheels do have less grip then the old VX interceptors did but it's only in the wet i can tell it's less grippy:)

fpv_gtho
01-30-2005, 07:10 PM
Is that from the watts linkage or the panhard rod, whatever it was, that your brother fitted to it? :p

i think its mostly hatches that get 3 wheel action, i know the Renault Sport Clio and Integra Type R done it, probably cause the rear suspension was so stiff with bugger all travel

2ndclasscitizen
01-30-2005, 08:17 PM
GT3 RS does it as well

fpv_gtho
01-30-2005, 10:06 PM
Well if theyre suspension settings are close to the Carrera Cup settings, no surprise really either as theyre fairly stiffly sprung as well. It'd look alot funnier seeing a 911 on 3 wheels than an Integra or Clio though :p

SlickHolden

VL Calais panhardrod he done, I don't know if they are any differnt but it feel so much tighter at the rear, Before the old one was worn and the holes were getting bigger in it the rear shifting was very uncomfy :(

fpv_gtho
01-30-2005, 10:16 PM
It'd be something that tries to stop bodyroll by trying to get equal travel in the suspension.

SlickHolden
01-30-2005, 10:39 PM
Now needs some front shocks, Got the Vl's shocks on the back. Would like to lower it maybe 1" just to settle it more all over, But it's allright on fast corners.
This guy behind me once went through a roundabout fast and got sideways:p Not me:p
It was a intengra must have got the rear up to get that to slide out:D

fpv_gtho
01-30-2005, 11:09 PM
Maybe he used a touch of the handbrake :p you'd imagine with one wheel up on the back theres less braking force there, its when theres less at the front you have to worry.

If you do end up lowering it though make sure whatever shocks stay on or what you stick on are suitable for the new ride height otherwise you'll bottom out in the shocks whilst theres still suspension travel

Blue Supra
01-31-2005, 07:00 PM
yeh dont get new shocks and not new springs or vice versa, i need new shocks to match my stiffer springs i got put in:( DAMN SO MUCH F'IN MONEY!!!:(

SlickHolden
01-31-2005, 08:37 PM
Funny thing is my bro's ride is harder and when i get back in the VB it's nice over bumps only cause he's is so hard:D

I took a huge roundabout lastnight at 60k And the engine was cutting out till i got straight:mad: Problems back again.

fpv_gtho
02-01-2005, 10:45 PM
He's probably just done the springs then, if you done the roll bars and shocks you could get a soft ride that didnt have much bodyroll through corners

Blue Supra
02-03-2005, 06:31 PM
thats what im trying to do to the datto, i dont care how much it bumps up and down (well not excessively anyways) i want it to sit straight and not roll at all just about.

fpv_gtho
02-03-2005, 11:59 PM
The only problem with that will be if you start getting it too stiff, the car will act like its driving around on 50psi, like which youve said before is better for wheelspin as theres no give in either the suspension or tyres, which you'll appreciate one the L18 gets in there and its doing the big revs out of corners :p

Blue Supra
02-06-2005, 06:38 PM
wheeeeeeeee!!! our club is considering running a drift event this year!!! thatd be mad as fun!!! i already run with 40 odd PSI, 50 and the tyres would explode:eek: big revs is on the plate with a estimated 8500rpm red line:D

fpv_gtho
02-06-2005, 10:25 PM
Maybe you need better tyres then :p 50psi's regularly run by people on the track with low profile tyre, so maybe thats where the difference lies....

with 8500rpm and the cam to have power then, it wont be making much power off idel though :p

Blue Supra
02-07-2005, 03:47 PM
well apparently my tyres are low pro:confused: that doesnt really work for me as theyre 185/65 R13. youd think 205/45 would be low pro.

fpv_gtho
02-07-2005, 10:30 PM
Mate you'd find 65 series tyres on a Pajero :D

45's are much more like it, but without moving up to a 14-15" rim you'd be screwing with the gearing of the car, so thats just more $$$ unfortunately, unless someone's flogging off a set on eBay :p

Blue Supra
02-09-2005, 12:56 AM
yeh thats what i thought.

i was considering a set of 15"s but theyll have to wait i think:)

fpv_gtho
02-09-2005, 01:09 AM
Ive seen a 1200 coupe which had i think 15inch tyres on there and they really filled out the guards with a set of 45 profile tyres on there so they could do alot for the looks of the car, without getting too bling :p

Blue Supra
02-09-2005, 01:16 AM
yeh but theyre pretty expensive as far as tyres go. i should keep the set i have with some race rubber on em and have a nice shiny "other" set.

fpv_gtho
02-09-2005, 01:25 AM
Well if you really wanted to get serious, your gunna want the soft compounds for more grip and unfortunately they last alot less and cost alot more :(

whiteballz
02-09-2005, 01:39 AM
bluie, you know that red 205 GTi that flogs your ass at the hillclimb?

my friends bros? yea they use soft compound rubber.

fpv_gtho
02-09-2005, 01:43 AM
those 205 GTi's were pretty good though, so its not really taking anything away from the Datto :p

Blue Supra
02-09-2005, 01:44 AM

Blue Supra
02-09-2005, 01:49 AM
engine capacity and turbo NA etc.

fpv_gtho
02-09-2005, 01:52 AM
That makes sense i suppose, so its just like in blocks of 1L or 0.5L then?

Blue Supra
02-10-2005, 10:44 PM
nah it goes like 0-1600cc (me) 1601-2000, 2001 - 3000, 3000+
a turbo puts you in a diff category
a non road legal car is a diff category (mines road legal apparently)
and i think a heavily tuned car moves you up a category ie: 400HP SR20DET in a datto moves from 2000cc turbo to 3000+ turbo

fpv_gtho
02-11-2005, 12:27 AM
The heavily modded part sounds a bit sus, could throw you from a category youre dominating to one you suck at.....i mean a hipo SR20 then would be up against a sedate RB26

Blue Supra
02-13-2005, 04:13 PM
yeh thats why you have to be real careful about what you mod. like theres a few cars at my track (FB RX7s mostly) that have 20k+ in them... and run 44 sec laps... (i havent crack 60 secs yet) so yeh must be careful, as long as i stay NA i should be pretty right even if i go turbo eventually i wont end up with those guys:)

fpv_gtho
02-13-2005, 10:44 PM
Well if you end up running a highly tuned NA it'll be interesting if they bump you up to either the turbo category or hipo category for your engine size.

Blue Supra
02-14-2005, 01:42 AM
yeh im not sure how it all works, ill ask at the event this month:)

fpv_gtho
02-14-2005, 03:29 AM
You'll wanna make sure before they skip you ahead to the hipo turbo category if its only a hipo NA :p I guess at least you wont have any lag compared to some others :D

Blue Supra
02-14-2005, 05:15 PM
nah they wont jump me into the forced induction area, might go into 2000 - 3000cc NA though. im still waiting to hear from this bloke about my manifold.:mad:

fpv_gtho
02-14-2005, 05:26 PM
You'd imagine there'd be some fairly potent 2 turbo's running around, so i guess with that in mind they may keep you in the original category for a while.

Blue Supra
02-14-2005, 07:24 PM
yeh well we'll see:) im going to send some abuse about my manifold. i paid 7 days ago and have not heard a thing from him:mad:

but there are cheaper places if u look, a bit further away from Cavill av.

Im sure if it was $300 a month you guys wouldnt be able to get rid of some people

clutch-monkey
02-16-2005, 02:35 AM
nope $300 a week - plus $100 damage bond - which i'm sure they'll try to keep.
i stayed about 600m away from the main party avenue, you get a lot more for your money - we had our own spa, full kitchen, cable tv, 6 beds etc. try and get as many people with you so the cost is lower

fpv_gtho
02-16-2005, 02:40 AM
Well i suppose the bonds not so bad, usually they ask 2x the rent or something dont they?

Other than that sounds like you at least get a fair bit for the money :p

clutch-monkey
02-16-2005, 02:42 AM
yeah if your willing to search a little bit. i know some of my mates got off a hell of a lot cheaper than me, staying at inns etc. we were right on the beach tho, that was a plus :)

hey i failed geography in school :p i'd swear it was a few metres over the border
at schoolies time, the seabreezes keep it nice and cool so you can keep active at the beach concerts without collapsing from heat exhaustion. during the day its hot so u can lie around the beach

yeah. thats why i prefer DC.
its an add on for battle feild 1942. based in arabic countries. its so cool, i prefer to go the axis (evil, (arabic)) side, coz i really dont like to play as USA, but i prefer the US wepons and technical objects (planes, choppers (my speciality) etc.
