FTO AUSTRALIA

nearly every thing mentioned can be fixed and if you want loads of torque and horsepower you need to spend a bit of money.

Oh and I am 6 foot 4 inches and have never banged my head hehe

You're obviously never meet the right girl

I got the FTO what i want a nagging women for

she would only make me sell it

So find a gal who likes FTOs then! Just be careful not to give her the keys though.....

Just find a girl that drives a FTO. And you can borrow her car when yours is low on petrol.

Brian

no way anyone drives this thing but me

i like brians idea then i got spare parts

hehehe

LOL... any interested single ladies here??

Hey sorry guys, I know I'm off topic. But this kinda falls in the 'what do/don't you like' ...

Salacious: I was reading another discussion, and noticed that you have Kahn RSR 17x8 wheels. I am looking at getting those exact wheels for my car. If you don't mind, could you email me a couple of pictures, or post them to the forum. I'm also really keen to here what you think about them.

Cheers.

I have a couple of pictures from a meet in Berwick

In Keswick

And finally at Binbrook

The only thing I would say is that it makes the brake discs look tiny especially the rear. I really like the wheels the only problem I have is that the tyres don't offer much rim protection. I also believe that Kahn have stopped making the RSR.

Wow Brian, they look fantastic on your car. Compliments the colour of your car as well.

Thank you very much for providing those images, I'm sold.

Cheers,
Luca

Thanks Luca for the kind words. These pictures were about 3 weeks after some f**kers were jumping on the roof of my car outside the cinema. You probably can't see the dents in the roof but they are still there.

Just added some more pics
These are at Binbrook

how much kw was it doing on the wheels again? i read it somewhere but i forgot...

around 400hp at the front wheels (that's 297kw, more then 2x more power than the std engine itself)

...sure u can handle the beast???

i'd imagine it'd be the closest thing to riding a rodeo eh Danny?? LOL...!!

I cant believe that nobody has mentioned the sh*tty beeping noise when you open the door!!!!!! or when you reverse!!!!!! Oh yeah youd think a $57000 car (brand new) would at least have a glove box light. Any way enough whinging i still love my car.

beeping noise? there's a beeping noise??

funny, i only get them when my key is in the ignition and the driver door is open...

Yeah mikey thats what i meant, i have to put the key in the ignition within a very short time or else the alarm goes of. So when im working in the car for what ever reason i get that sh*tty beeping. Do you know which part of the car beeps? So i know where to put a bullet!!!!!!!
