FG XR8 will be a collectors item as it is the end of a 20 year run of the model.

Nice upgrade, the delayed signal in the fly by wire throttle makes it different to drive, timig of the right foot has to be shifted a fraction of a second earlier.

Nice purchase indeed.
Will be sad to see the old XR6 go ... a lot of us have moved on though. No need to say goodbye ... we'll see you posting around here anyway. Any plans for the new one??? nice set of Herrod lumpy cams.

Well it's already got some form of extractors and exhaust system so it sounds great.
I'll be putting my LANKY 1 plates on it asap Might get a growler intake in the future. I don't need anymore power (just yet) Only problem i have with new cars these days there isn't much u can do to make them unique, they already look great And ur right, i'm just leaving the AU crowd, I'll still be around the pits and what not
