that is true i guess. yuo might as well go all out if ur getting it done. why are bf's so much better to mod!!! i only got 5 more rwkw than ur car but im running 12psi and ur running 10, plus i have a bigger cooler, 3.5" cat and 3.5" cat back and fuel pump. you bastard! haha jk, lucky man. im hoping valve springs will push me closer to 300, ill get it re runon the dyno when its not 40 degrees and see.

hang in there with the spoiler!!

heh yeah im not sure why the BF's get more power out of less mods, perhaps the 6spd auto has less power loss through it too? Dunno. Still man I rekon anything between 280-300rwkw is plenty for the streets, its hard enough to use 280 let alone 300+!!

and yup dont worry im not giving up about the spoiler, i will get there eventually. I'm almost getting to the point where if i stop next to an XT at the traffic lights, i'll wind down the window and ask random people if they want to swap.. hehe.

^^ thats pretty much what i did.

Except i slept with her daughter while i got into her good books for a straight swap kaaaachowww!

XF Falcon- 02-11-2008
Well I'm definitely keen on that idea, do they have a mercury silver XT too? ps, is the daughter over 16?? biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Latest mod is to remove the wireless xbox controller (looks poxy) and mount the IR remote control receiver up the front of the car (so I can use the xbox dvd remote control to control everything).

This is the receiver and the remote control I wanted to use

This is where I wanted to mount it - inside the cigarette lighter socket.. so that it looks kinda factory fitting

Then I had a brainwave, and decided to stick it behind the ciggy lighter hole

It kinda fitted...

then after LOTS of chopping of the IR Receiver and the tissue box holder....

hey presto she fits! *gets out the araldyte glue*

Ran cat5 cable from the boot to the console to extend the cable (took a while to find a female terminal for the xbox - you can see it at the end of the cord)

Xbox end of the setup. All hidden by the boot carpet and all fitted nice and tight and safe with foam

And the final result, many many hours later

Works bloody great, remote works anywhere in the car pointing in any direction. Also works from outside the car if you point it good enough.

Only bad thing is you cant play games on it, but if someone really wants to play all I have to do is get the wireless controller out as that still works too.

thats a really good idea a where did u get the reciever and remote from n does that plug into the xbox its self??

petexr6t- 02-24-2008
i see u have downloaded the latest Lesbian Lessons 16 video

XF Falcon- 02-24-2008
LOL yeah i just picked some random leso video cos my mate said "I want to see photos of it, and i want to see some TITS!!" so I did haha.

Receiver and remote are proper Microsoft xbox ones. it plugs straight into the xbox, but i made an extention cord out of Cat5 cable to run it to the front of the car.

Cheers guys, yeah you cannot tell at all that there is an xbox in there.. apart from the now-missing ciggy lighter... I don't smoke so its all good.
