Default Pics of the EF

Hey all, just thought i might post up a few pics of my EF.
Hasnt had much done to it as of yet:

Shiftkit Fully Adjustable TransMod
EL Air Intake
Extractors
2.5" cat back exhaust (One Muffler)
14" ROH GT-12 Slotters











What do you guys think? I'm looking at getting her dyno'd soon, any idea what she'd make? Also, what's next in line mod-wise?

Cheers, Sammy _2:

Hey Sammy B, looking nice.
The next mod I would do would definately be to change the wheels to ones that we could see on the car without squinting to see inside the tyre! 18" would be quite sufficient in fulfilling that.
In regards to the dyno, I would be expecting around 110rwkw probably...
Good Luck

Haha thanks, the rims are actually a 'new' addition to the car, so i wont be getting rid of them anytime soon. I've always like the 12-slotters, and wanted something different from the usal 17-18" rims, hence why i bought these ones. Any idea's what would be a good next performance mod?

aaaaaah 12 slotters, the black stockies without hubcaps would look better, i thought you couldnt put a smaller size rim on your car legally...
lower it, better wheels and it should be a decent cruiser....
good luck with your dyno

as for mods, can't go past a cam

IMO Ditch the wheels/mudflaps/ford sticker
Colourcode side moulds
Spray the driver side mirror to white (it will match the passenger side)
Get superlows/better shocks
Nice set of 17, 18, or 19" wheels
Tinted windows
New headlights and she will look shmick!

One thing i will say about the wheels... I don't think they look as cool as 18"s but the good old 12 slotters make it look like it just came off the track for some reason. Better than stock imo.

As for mods:
Get engine running well (serviced etc)
lower
cam
diff

Just remember you need a 4.0 cam, not a 250 one.

You might want to check the legality of running 14's on an EF... I'm 99% sure you can't go down in rim size from what was standard.
