FTO AUSTRALIA

i have just bought this car it has 112,000kms it has been recently serviced its 100,000kms major service. the car is immaculate engine is working and sounds beautiful. except the rpm limiter doesn't seem to work? if any one would know why it will be very helpful

I have a feeling this was millsy's car, in which case its aparently been raised to 10k.

Check for a cut wire near the ECU..

If the tacho isnt working is probably the Ignition Failure Sensor. Have a couple of these (new and 2nd hand).

Oh and welcome to the club

Welcome to the club.
Rev cut is meant to be at around 8,200rpm.
Don't rev it past that.

Well
nice to hear of another Aero in the club, I believe Dwayne is the only other lucky one.

Sorry, can't help with your prob however.

Yep, im the only other one with an Aero that im aware of.

i would like to know your opinion on my car cheers

Interior looks nice and clean. Outside has a few un-straightened panels etc etc but hey, can't complain!.
Looks nice man.
HOWEVER!!!!

PLEASE REMOVE THOSE RIMS!

Looks pretty clean man. As mentioned above though, the front bar is far from a good fit, so I'd say its been pranged before.

And +1 on the destruction of those rims... Set fire to them & hurl them at the nearest Lebanese guy.

That aside, it looks good

Ummm, Chrome rims, Aero spec, NSW rego, I hope this didn't belong to an ex member.

The car has never been in a accident it has been checked from my panel beater, im the second owner since its been imported from Japan in 2007. Im looking to swap the rims ASAP and straighten the body if possible. Thats the only number plate that has been registered in Australia.

Looks really neat, looks to be unmolested from the pics. From the misalignment of thebar I would say that it may have been in a minor accident, maybe a bumper to bumper ding which has misaligned the mounts. Probably nothing major, should be able to be sorted out by a panel beater.

+1 to all the rim hating though, they look terrible

Enjoy the sweet sound, a real ear candy of car.
WTTC

Never seen an FTO with such a clean interior. Fix up the bumper and replace the rims and it will be an awesome ride.

Nice car

Rims are horrible! wow, my eyes have never seen anything quite so... umm..
There is no word to describe how much those rims destroy my eyes!

This car sounds like a dream.. especially hitting high RPMs yes i do understand the rims are disgusting i have to put up with it till i find something more suitable

If you put some nice lightweight rims on in their place, you'll probably experience a huge jump in power. Those chromies weigh a ton & as such the motor stuggles to get them spinning

Looks Like Ollie's FTO. Stickers are too old though. In pretty good condition. Need a new floor consle.

That's what I was hinting at.
