Outstanding work by the lad, has a bright future ahead if he can paint correct like that. Makes me want to get off my rear end and polish up the Fairlane
Prestige done you well. Winrun's are a terrible tyre. Bought my hsv with them on. Replaced with potenzas immediately. Looking forward to the updates. Good work Ross!
The Winrun's are a false economy - they'll be worn to the threads and needing replacing in 15-20K km. Definitely only for getting a RWC on a flipper imo
I have shopped around at a lot of tyre stores and I ended up finding a place that sells cheap tires but they also have a great variety of top of the range. Tempe tyres they deliver anywhere in Australia I pay $30 to have a pair delivered to Brisbane. I buy Bridgestone potenza 5001 I think they are and they are $290 per tyre and they are a good tyre in the wet and dry. My bf has 285,000 and I have a leak at the rear of the engine but the good thing about the Barra is if you replace the rear bearing early enough then you only have to have your box taken out and the bearing can be replaced without taking the engine out.
Black is a pita to keep clean, literally looks clean for a few hours...kudos to the kid for the good work. Hopefully he can score some more work from your channel.
You should be proud of yourself Johnny mate,because it's like a different car now compared to when you first got it & you aren't even finished yet,so well done brother on all your hard work,dedication & money you've put into your F6 to bring such a classic car back to her former glory days,I've loved watching every minute of the progress & will continue to do so she's a beast of a car & easy on the eyes as well 😘lol,thanks for sharing buddy loved it.
That car wash looks familiar...I live in Perth, and have been there a few times. There's a Hungry Jacks nearby, and it's not far from a racecourse... and it's about 4 km from Empire Bar...no need to respond
LMAO at the cheap tyres! I get it - why would ya put cup 2 tyres on it when you know you only want to fry the tyres! Your typhoon is like my SRT Jeep to me - it's nice owning something in the garage that will always put a smile on your face. I get it.
@@RossReviewsau if it was water that’s fine but the detergent they use will eventually strip the coating if you use it often. it’s like using dishwashing detergent. Always use a PH negative soap on coated cars.
Cheers was just talking about needing new blades. Cheers for the link. With tyres I'm using Royal Black yeah I know Chinese?? But they are serious well worth what you pay. Amazing grip they truly stick to the bitumen 100% no need to spend a fortune. Highly recommend them. I would love some advice tho on keeping my original charcoal black leather seats and other leather interior on my BF G8 Fairlane. Currently just using Armaroil leather all in one product. But feel there would be a better product particularly as the seats are heading towards 20 years old. They are in amazing condition and I desperately want to keep them in the same condition. Love your car Ross it's seriously nice mate. Such a pleasure to see where you are at. Huge inspiration to many definitely including my self. I'm going to start taking the G8 to some Ford car shows in WA. Hope to see you there. Always a huge pleasure. Awesome ride mate. You will get 300,000+ easy mate. Legend 👍💪🇦🇺
Stoked for you Ross. That looks amazing and as you say what a credit to the detailer. You made my day as about 3hrs before you posted this video I booked in my FG turbo (mystic) for a correction and ceramic. Now I feel hopeful it is going to work. I had a black e30 and e39 so I know your pain! Love you work mate….apart from the money you keep inspiring me to spend! Did my lights recently too. If you are thinking of upgrading your bulbs, I highly recommend a channel called headlight revolution, the bloke knows his stuff.
Hey John,well as you no I have a f6 exactley the same as yours,I have to ceramic coat mine to,I put a 50 mm turbo smart hyper gate on mine with a screamer,it’s so mint,don’t go a 45 go the 50 mm that way for future mods you will be ok,I put a pulsar gtx 3582 on mine still on 98 and it’s doing 560 at the treads now but now I’m gunna have to do a drive shaft,and getting the gear box,zf,tuned to cut talk on gear shifts,especially down shift to cut torque to help preserve the zf input shaft,no guarantees on that one,keep up the good job there
Love the detailing mate, have been following u for at least 3 plus years now ur Chanel has grown so much, just wanted to say that I’m 19 and I’m already on to my second Fg😂 (50th anniversary ute sunburst) and have some big plans. Keep it up mate
I wonder if anybody has put a All Wheel Drive system to the F6 with a LSD for the front wheels to keep in line with those pesky AWD Honda Civic Turbos. That would make those cheap $100 tires much less of an issue in the wet.
I was going to get my bonnet sprayed, but after seeing how your roof came out I just might let the little guy have a crack. It’s not anywhere near as bad as that roof. Also, cheap tyres are the way to go on those. I put grippy ones on my F6 FG and found it just brakes traction at a higher power level, which makes it more violent and unpredictable.
