dansedgli · 21-04-2005, 11:35 PM

The bike is in a bad way at the moment, it is still my work hack though. Some ******** knocked it down while I was at work monday and its all broken and shit, missing a mirror etc. Not happy!

Damo · 21-04-2005, 11:46 PM

damn. :( I know the Fairings etc are hell expensive for these kinda bikes.

Congrats on the AU.

xdc351 · 22-04-2005, 01:21 AM

Great work Dan, I'd have it in a second if I had the money!

A truely excellent example of an AU thats for sure.

Good luck.

Can someone hook me up with 2 17's to go on the rear so I can go racing? 15,16's wont fit cos of the brakes!!

Dan with the big brakes not sure if you will get 17's over the Callipers...
Some guys have to put on standard AU brakes on the rear to run at the drags with a smaller rim...
I just had a set of 16x8 steelies made up with Mickey Thompson radials which are in short supply...you get the M/T in 17's but there 275 wide, there is a guy here selling Territory rims very cheap..
If you need help with the tyres send me a PM, George Haddad looks after us with M/T...
Any way congratulations if you got that car for what it was offered to me for, it’s the buy of the decade...Enjoy it...

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 07:05 AM

cool, thanks for the offer.

Im not sure what he offered it to you for but it was a great buy thats for sure. Its an awesome feeling having a car thats finished and doesnt need anymore cash spent on it.

Ill look into another set of wheels for the back, I cant wait to see how she runs!

cArSiK · 22-04-2005, 08:36 AM

mate thats awesome! Theres nothing better than jumping out of an E-Series into an AU!

James

Twisted · 22-04-2005, 08:41 AM

Very nice Dan, congrats mate!

Hehe I had my eye on it but was a bit worried about the insurance. Mind if i ask how much your paying and your age etc?

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 08:44 AM

Im 21 and insurance is $1746 through just cars with all the modifications listed. I cant wait to get home and sit in it again!

TheSneakiness · 22-04-2005, 08:51 AM

You lucky bastard Dan.

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 08:58 AM

haha Im getting that a lot!

Kenaz · 22-04-2005, 09:04 AM

Congratulations Dan! I've seen this car once before in the flesh and it was awesome. Alot better than any VL turbo I've seen, that's for sure

: Enjoy it mate ;)

Wow thats actually pretty good! Did he sell it with a RWC?

Stevo · 22-04-2005, 09:34 AM

Yup dan, the first ever FF cruise i went on, HOTDBZ was there. (5 cars for the cruise)... He had 170rwkw back then, and hadnt done the leather seats.. It was still a monster, and i wasted all my photos on it.

Shit Hot Car!!!

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 09:36 AM

sorry dial up users! Here is a pic:

TheSneakiness · 22-04-2005, 09:40 AM

Gobsmacked. That is real nice.

Stevo · 22-04-2005, 09:45 AM

Dan, does it still have the dba rotors on all 4 corners ? (cant tell from that pic) , and does it still have the carbon fibre dash bit around the stereo etc ?

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 09:51 AM

It still has the carbon fibre stereo surround. Not sure on the rotors but they are 4 pot AP racing on the rear as well.

TheSneakiness · 22-04-2005, 09:59 AM

So Dan, tell us, how much did it set you back...

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 10:01 AM

Out of respect to the previous owner, I dont want to say.

Lets just say for the price I paid I felt bad driving it away.

Kenaz · 22-04-2005, 10:14 AM

Easily one of the best AU XRs getting around in all respects.

Oh really. Wow. To feel that way after getting such a car must mean you got it for less than its really worth.

22-04-2005, 10:45 AM

Do I dare say that an xr50 front bar would look gggrreeeaaat on that car??

I think Ill be keeping the car as is, cant beat genuine ford parts :eclipsee_

AUII_Forte · 22-04-2005, 11:38 AM

Great purchase Dan! The engine bay of that car has been the wallpaper on my phone for as long as I can remember.

I vote videos!!!!! I gotta get back down to Melb and go for a ride in this beast.

cArSiK · 22-04-2005, 12:45 PM

dan , how does it ride with 19's and super low springs?
cheers
James

dansedgli · 22-04-2005, 12:46 PM

Its rides awesome! Its a bit stiff but still much better than the EB. I love everything about it, except the front bar being a bit low bothers me. It scrapes everywhere.
