what would it take.....

[2kool4u]

to make my stock EF as quick as an AU xr6??

[ON_DUBS]

diff, cam, computer.

[2kool4u]

What difference would a diff make (I don't know much about cars)

And how much do computers cost??

[BOOSTDEF]

hhmmm... lets see

Whats different between the two cars.

3.08 Vs 3.45 diff gears.
37mm Valves VS 41mm Valves
Stock cam VS Bigger cam
lower fuel pressure Vs XR Fuel pressure
200k VS 120k (guestimate but you get the idea) kilometres done
Evolved computer with the AU
Better gear changes with the AU(another tenth)

But yeh, a big cam, exhaist and a unichip would have it.

[BOOSTDEF]

i would actually like to see an EF with a 3.9 diff gears go against a stock XR

Anybody?

But dude, a diff made up can be $700-$1000

Or you can just get diff gears transplanted into the diff for quite cheap.

[2kool4u]

Is 3.08 higher gearing than 3.45??

I plan by the end of the year to get extractors, chip, cold air induction, cam and exhaust done.

I'm going to get my EF running like i want it to before I touch anything else, like bodykit and such.

[-jjM-]

get an au xr6s motor ? lol

most of these guys have made it qwiet clear here

post: +1 ;)

[2kool4u]

worth a try :P

[UNR8D]

with extractors and cam you should give an AU XR6 a going over

i have Extractors/cam/chip/mild port/polish on the heads and give them a hiding.

now i have 3.9 LSD and upgraded auto it will be a loose loose situation:P lol

[2kool4u]

can you fit an AU head to an EF engine??

[1TUFFUTE]

Tickford wings will do it...

[stiddy]

you will need lots ;)

My syster has an EF and I have an AU XR6,
The EF will need more than cam, computer and extractors/exhaust..
the diff gears 'might' get you very close ontop of all the other mods but I think the XR will still have the edge..

[AMT]

Why are you setting an Au XR6 as the benchmark..??? Why not just get the thing going as hard as you can with the money you have..???

[2kool4u]

Cause my mate has an AU xr6 and its fast, i want my car to be faster. I was really just wondering what it would take, but really my car doesn't seem much slower than his, especially at the top end of second gear.

[stiddy]

Well get extractors + exhaust, do the air intake, cam and computer chip.
theres probably ~$2000 in mods there..
then do the diff gears, and assuming your car is auto, go get a high stall/oil cooler and shift kit.
theres ~$2000 in those mods..

If your mates AU XR is auto you will have him, if its manual it will get you very close, maybe a little infront, maybe a little behind, its too hard to compare..

I know of guys with edit, cam, extractors, exhaust, intake, stally, diff gears, shift kit and good(150rwkw) dyno figures that still loose to my car and ive got a cat back exhaust + intake.

[theboss290]

or you could sell the EF and buy a AU XR6.

Just an idea. :

[stiddy]

Buying an AU XR6, dosnet mean he will beat his mates AU XR6.

[2kool4u]

Yeah i could sell the EF and then save another 12 or so thousand and buy an AU xr6 :P

[stiddy]

AU XR6's are going between 8-10k at auctions these days, well in Sydney they are.
Even some AU XR8's are going around the same price..

[Mr_4.0]

have a look at my signature. with that, i run quicker than a ba xr and an au xr6 any day of the week.

[stiddy]

1/4 times Mr 4.0 ?
