FTO AUSTRALIA

I really need a phone that can send pms..

dstocks, if you see this, how much for the indicators? Any idea for shipping to 5038?

Which indicators. Front prefacelift, front facelift or side indicators.

Im soooo confused.

Lol, front for a standard factory facelift.

They are rare
Tylar has a set, I had a set but gave them to kylie for her FTO

$80 + $10 postage

Yep, hard to come by - hence price. I had to pay more than this for them in Japan, but happy to turn over stock.

What about postage for the bar?

Have to go back to work now, will pm you when I get home probs.

Cheers to Shhtuart. I was almost worried, but it came just five minutes ago!

Noice. Have you got the matching front one?

Jah, the one you sold me with the car. Can't wait to see how this goes through the twisties!

Got a great memory I have.....

Wasn't going to mention it.

Meanwhile, those little plastic clips that hold the boot felt in place hurt to wrangle out when your fingers are cold. Didn't have enough time to install before work though. Might do it tonight or tomorrow.

Dont wriggle them out. Thats the hard way to approach it. Get a pair of scissors and cut a slot level with the top of the strut tower on each side (you should be able to feel it under the felt). This then gives you access to the nuts underneath. Simply remove them and fit your brace through the slots you cut and then put the nuts back on. Easy Peasy....

Good, and they didn't break it

I think, bar running it over with the delivery truck, it would've been pretty difficult.

Cue joke about it taking so bloody long to get my nuts off. Seriously though, top left took a lot of effort with just a spanner and later a hammer. Feels pretty tight! I think I might go for a drive and see if it's all it's cracked up to be.

I want a rear bar

Definitely worth it

YOU MUST GET ONE. HOLY F*CK THESE THINGS ARE AMAZING.

Like seriously, when I was at vipfto's getting the power steering A/C belt changed I asked him whether I would notice a big difference. Never would have anticipated the level of confidence around corners that I get now. On really tight bends where the front wheels usually start giving out and squealing like pigs, they were so much more composed. It's like where did this grip come from?? I knew the FTO was good at handling, but damn you'd never think a simple piece of metal would make it so much better.

Cannot wait to get some wider rubber, and definitely a Whiteline rear sway bar I reckon. Could probably stand to replace my suspension bushings? (I forget exactly what they're called. )
