Brazzr- load of Sh** - My Turbo speed limited at 230. Does 0 - 100 kph in 5 secs standard.
Yappa1987 - Bit over 30 from a dealer, More are hitting the auctions at mid 20's. Brembo Brakes, Lower and tougher suspension. Motor is standard XR6T. Interior has a few marks but no more than any 12 month old car. Only has basic sound system.
@brazzr its not true lol and by the time your lancer gets to 200 the falcons have already finished the trip, sitting there having a beer waiting for you lol
@CrackyOo your a dickhead mate, the 14 seconds to 100ks is for my car, fucken stay out of other peoples conversations, your making a fool out of yourself.
@CrackyOo nothing wrong with having the lancer, cos i got it for free, so ha, told again. btw im 18, is my first car and parents bought it for me. buying myself a brandnew car in the next 6months, so ha told again rofl
@brazzr lol, im 19 and im putting my deposit down tomorrow on a brand new FG xr6t ute, and my first car was a bf xr6 ripcurl ute for free too. so lick it.
@CrackyOo it maybe true that the most powerful car ive driven had only 175kw, mind you im on my p plates only allowed 200kw max, but i can garuntee you that ive ridden things (as in motorbikes) that are faster then anything you have driven :). so no i dont feel sorry for myself.
im looking at getting this, an xr8, or the ss... leaning towards this atm... but why is every youtube video filled with people saying this is shit, holdens are shit, ricers are shit... they are all pretty good cars!
@zomblewbb G6Et uses the same engine. I test drove one yesterday with all the luxury stuff in it, and in auto. It was a rocket. But i bought the xr6t ute instead, bit lighter and better handling. (my opinion though)
been a holden boy all my life, but I can't argue with this... I drive an sv6, and to even get close to these figures will cost around $7K-$10K. These XR6Ts are whips! I'm thinkin if Holden don't come up with something in the next couple of years, I'm jumpin ship (it still hurts to say)
Thank god i bought the Sequential auto, the manual loses a heap of boost during change up in this car. You will whet your panties when you get to drive the fg XR6T.v
Thank god i bought the Sequential auto, the manual loses a heap of boost during change up in this car. You will whet your panties when you get to drive the fg XR6T.
i read in a magazine that the bf typhoon is alot more beter value than the new xr6 turbo i got an r spec bf and it handles way better than my mates dads new xr6 turbo
@dozza04 it would want to being an FPV mate,even though the FG XR6T is the newer car Ford/FPV cant make the newer model "ford" (not fpv) out do the previous model top of the range car otherwise there will be some pissed people out there,the FG XR6T is most definately quicker in staright line thats for sure,but handling an braking the arsepeck (R-spec,lol) has it all over the FG.coming from an fg xr6t owner
I think it sits at between 8-9 ltrs/100km on the highway. Only thing that is better on the BF Typhoon is the brakes, the FG is quicker and has better handling (if both stock).
Yes , on paper the GT and HSV V8's show more power but yet the V8's get dusted at the drags by XR6T's / Typhoons all the time (assuming both are stock)
@billybodybuilder It has nothing to do with peak Kw and peak torque. The GT only makes those figures at 5-6 thousand rpm, the XR6T reaches max torque at 2000rpm. This is why it pulls so hard through the gears and leaves the V8s in its wake. Torque. Peak figures are for marketing only. Ford still market the XR8 as the ultimate performance falcon(non-FPV), I've got the Falcon brochure in front of me. 20Kw more power than the XR6T but is slower everywhere, including stopping and worse handling.
Prob find that the xr6t will be worth more in resale down the track as its the last ozzie inline 6, is a "5.2" second car, and maybe the last of the falcons aswell...def worth the money
Yes, agreed, but my main purpose for byuing it is simply that for over 23 years i've driven V8's , both Ford & Holden.
This will be the first time i'll have a car that runs 13's over the 1/4 (ive seen some do high 12's stock too) & can still deliver 8.5 L/100 Kms fuel economy while being a full sized family car that can be driven everyday !
not to bad about 5.5 to 100 and if you try to launch it you could do better easy.I like more hsv but this is nice car as well i think bout holden and ford are doing great work here in australia
The FG is quicker than the BF typhoon. Some have seen the FG pull big numbers stock from a tune and intake. The FG is just a better car, much more perfected. But in a few weeks you'll have a few more forced induction fords to choose from ;)
@keaton185 Yes mate , i am well aware that the FG is quicker & more refined. However , i chose the Typhoon for it's tougher looks & the big Brembos. The XR6T looks like an XT with alloys, spoilers & a turbo badge .. lol...
@keaton185 No question about how good they are. After having V8's (both makes) for over 20 years, never going back to 'em. My next upgrade will be the FG F6 and whatever else turbo FPV throw at me !! LOL
BILLYTHEBODYBUILDER stop putting shit kent comments about your shit ass non turbo xr6 that can do 0-100 in 2 seconds you think your car is a bugatti veyron, seriously no one cares about your shitty n/a car. Once you get a turbo then come talk otherwise beat it
Damnnn thats faster than i thought. My old man just brought one can't wait to take it for a drive now....he just ordered some 22's for the rear and 20's up front should look wicked, theres soooo much room in the rear guard could fit a 285/30 i reckon.
yes this is correct, just this morning, Hillary Clinton signed an agrreement to continue speed restrictions on ALL Austrian made carrots from now till next last solar ellipse.
HAHAHA NO! My XR6 Turbo went to 230km/h before the speed limiter stoped it going any faster. My Holden S Pack went 220km/h. Even if it was limited its easy to get it removed.
@plesat .... LOL!!! limited to180kph, what wanker, even a STOCK BA XT gets 200kph out of it before she hits the limiter. But yeah I agree with you on your All Australian carrots.... LOL!!
Hey arnt u the guy who trys to act like he knows what hes talking about, when realy he knows fuck all. i lol at u..... its not your fault thats all u can do for a living...(L)
one example of where this it true is the mid 90's EF and EL falcons, limited to 180, i think because of such a large prop shaft which wasnt balanced at the factory, with a risk of failure at higher speeds? not 100% sure
I've got an auto FG Xr6T stock with alloy wheel spare, premium sound (so sub in the back), and was half full tank, could only manage 0-100 in 6 seconds.
It's an auto, and was warmed up on a side road..
What setup are you having here that's different? It doesn't look like you put your foot flat on the accelerator at launch, or it would have revved differently.
Foot flat from 0km/h? Someone mentioned it may be a good idea to put the handbreak on, rev it up to ~3000 revs with other foot on break, then launch.
Also, what's performance mode? Is there a setting to change this? I simply thought it was either "auto" or "semi-auto" (where you change gears yourself)? Are there more settings accessible in the dash?
I only got the vehicle 2 weeks ago, but it's an ex demo so has a few kilometres..
Shouldn't matter much about weight, I never worried about how much fuel I had or anything but was always alone. When wheels tested them they got 5.1 sec with two people and half a tank of fuel.
Maybe the heat up there has something to do with it, see how you go with my advice.
Haha yep, i understood. No worries mate. And yeha, it was during the night though, so was around 10 degrees outside. Probably a bit dangerous to do it at night, but with temperatures around high 30's here, or it raining during the day, it's hard to do it otherwise.
Might need a bigger air intake - haha.
Cheers again for the info! Will let you know how I go this weekend. These things are beasts!!
doesn't the transmission also adjust to your driving style in performance mode? i took one for a test drive the other day and i was seriously blown away by the power difference from BA to FG. its just so much better in so many ways. especially exhaust note. so much more angrier sounding even at idle.
@jka001 mate thats because holden wants to keep the v8s alive rather than make them irrelevant im sure if they turbocharged the sv6 it would get just as much of a readout as the xr6t but regardless the xr is an awesome machine
@Baird56 Keep the V8 alive? Thats all good and well, but only a minority of the c'dores are V8's - the staple engine in their line up, and for the majority of their vehicles, is their V6's - my original quote was re: fords inline 6 - and if holden t/c a V6, it may get the power of the ford, but not the torque or the refinement... and last I checked, ford wasnt pulling out of the v8 game either? and yep... awesome machine is the xr6 :D
yeah but the majority of fords arent turbos and that isnt what i was getting at anyway what i was really talking about i guess is that the f6 is better than the gt because it puts out a similar amount of power as the v8 but is lighter, meaning as many people acknowlede that the v8 is sort of pointless. and if your talking about just the tent post motors from the two isnt the current ve's engine 15kW over the standard i6 from ford?
well you didnt make your point clear... anyways, this post is on an XR6T.. not an F6, or a V8.. Holdens advantage, I dont believe is 15kw over the I6 in standard form... either way, its not outright power, but torque thats the key..something which falcon has always had over c'dore...I agree though, the 6's are better than fords current V8.. soon to change though. In regards to refinement, peak power, torque delivery and longevity - you just cant beat the I6
And i got an BF XT that does the 0-100 in around 6 secs. No Turbo, no body kit, no alloys , no spoilers, sure FG Turbo pulls harder after 100 k's, but up to 100, not much in it. Type in "BF XT 0-120" time it and see for yourself, Cheers :)
i don't think it is a manual if u look closely the way he launched it if that was a manual it would have staled plus with the man the launch assist would have been used
plus the 0-100 times in the auto and man isnt realy that much diff as the launch assist is what alot of the turbos are using to push the 4.8sec mark to 100 and a 12.8 1/4 hmmm
It's an auto. The dash says "D", which is the default setting for the Sequential Sports Shift Automatic gearbox (he left it in full auto, otherwise it would have read the gear number if sequential or manual).
I rkn my BA XR6 is quicker than that. I have a full exhaust, airbox, underdrives and custom tune and run 14.3 down the 1/4 and that is with standard cams and diff. Will be able to get 13.8 with a diff upgrade and cams and a custom tune.
fg xr6 turbo's do 13.4 down the quarter stock and 0-100 in 5.1 . Read any of the reviews on the net my friend, it's there in black and white. My best is 5 sec & 13.1 using g-tech, 100% stock.
Ok FG F6 or whatever they are called. After looking at other FG XR6t videos on here I belive its tuned or the biggest freak i have ever seen. Maybe you have a realy good one.
MAN THIS CAR IS THE MOTHER OF VIOLENCE!!! Look how quick it speeds up..IT PULLS HARDER THAN A TEENAGER ON A TOILET SEAT!!!
Thank goodness Ford have decided 2 stick with the barra..so its here to stay. Ford r going 2 invest $28m to keep building this cracker of an engine so it meets the tuff new euro emission laws.
Lets hope they decide 2 export so the car is more profitable 4them..that way they'l always build it as long as the profit keeps comming in..They really need 2export 2 the U.S.A!!!
um that's clearly not 0-100 lol

one example of where this it true is the mid 90's EF and EL falcons, limited to 180, i think because of such a large prop shaft which wasnt balanced at the factory, with a risk of failure at higher speeds? not 100% sure

I've got an auto FG Xr6T stock with alloy wheel spare, premium sound (so sub in the back), and was half full tank, could only manage 0-100 in 6 seconds.
It's an auto, and was warmed up on a side road..
What setup are you having here that's different? It doesn't look like you put your foot flat on the accelerator at launch, or it would have revved differently.
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
Stock as a rock mate.
With traction control on, just put the foot fully to the floor, that's it! Didn't even warm the tyres up.
Are you sure you had it in performance mode? That's the only thing I can think of.
plesat 2 years ago
Foot flat from 0km/h? Someone mentioned it may be a good idea to put the handbreak on, rev it up to ~3000 revs with other foot on break, then launch.
Also, what's performance mode? Is there a setting to change this? I simply thought it was either "auto" or "semi-auto" (where you change gears yourself)? Are there more settings accessible in the dash?
I only got the vehicle 2 weeks ago, but it's an ex demo so has a few kilometres..
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
forget about the handbreak, maybe just right foot on break then stall it up to about 1800rpm then floor it( see my other video)
I got 5 sec flat this way.
Performance is mode is the semi-auto mode, but dont change the gears yourself. It revs out perfectly when the gearbox does the changes.Much faster!
plesat 2 years ago
Hey? I didn't know that.. so if I move the gearstick to sequential, it'll change gears for me in the high revs anyway? Didn't know that.
Sweet, so around 1800rpm? I'll give that a go. I live in NT, so many wide open roads here, it's awesome to take the car out for a bit and test it out.
Does it matter about how much weight is in the car? How much fuel (like full or half tank, etc)? Should I take out the alloy spare wheel?
Cheers for the replies mate! Will check out your other videos now.
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
Shouldn't matter much about weight, I never worried about how much fuel I had or anything but was always alone. When wheels tested them they got 5.1 sec with two people and half a tank of fuel.
Maybe the heat up there has something to do with it, see how you go with my advice.
plesat 2 years ago
sorry, I ment left foot on brake, then floor it with right, durrr?
plesat 2 years ago
Haha yep, i understood. No worries mate. And yeha, it was during the night though, so was around 10 degrees outside. Probably a bit dangerous to do it at night, but with temperatures around high 30's here, or it raining during the day, it's hard to do it otherwise.
Might need a bigger air intake - haha.
Cheers again for the info! Will let you know how I go this weekend. These things are beasts!!
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
doesn't the transmission also adjust to your driving style in performance mode? i took one for a test drive the other day and i was seriously blown away by the power difference from BA to FG. its just so much better in so many ways. especially exhaust note. so much more angrier sounding even at idle.

Best car in the country by a mile - Awesome speed, refinement and incredible engine... Holden morons take note: You have nothing that comes close!!
jka001 2 years ago 20
@jka001 mate thats because holden wants to keep the v8s alive rather than make them irrelevant im sure if they turbocharged the sv6 it would get just as much of a readout as the xr6t but regardless the xr is an awesome machine
Baird56 1 year ago
@Baird56 Keep the V8 alive? Thats all good and well, but only a minority of the c'dores are V8's - the staple engine in their line up, and for the majority of their vehicles, is their V6's - my original quote was re: fords inline 6 - and if holden t/c a V6, it may get the power of the ford, but not the torque or the refinement... and last I checked, ford wasnt pulling out of the v8 game either? and yep... awesome machine is the xr6 :D
jka001 1 year ago
@jka001
yeah but the majority of fords arent turbos and that isnt what i was getting at anyway what i was really talking about i guess is that the f6 is better than the gt because it puts out a similar amount of power as the v8 but is lighter, meaning as many people acknowlede that the v8 is sort of pointless. and if your talking about just the tent post motors from the two isnt the current ve's engine 15kW over the standard i6 from ford?
Baird56 1 year ago
@Baird56
well you didnt make your point clear... anyways, this post is on an XR6T.. not an F6, or a V8.. Holdens advantage, I dont believe is 15kw over the I6 in standard form... either way, its not outright power, but torque thats the key..something which falcon has always had over c'dore...I agree though, the 6's are better than fords current V8.. soon to change though. In regards to refinement, peak power, torque delivery and longevity - you just cant beat the I6

@jka001 its a turbo 6.. good to see we have copied ricer cars. your v8s are shit so slap a turbo on your 6 and think your car is amazing.

From this video it goes from 0-100km/h in a shade under 6 seconds (around 3-9 seconds in the vid) which is about right.

And i got an BF XT that does the 0-100 in around 6 secs. No Turbo, no body kit, no alloys , no spoilers, sure FG Turbo pulls harder after 100 k's, but up to 100, not much in it. Type in "BF XT 0-120" time it and see for yourself, Cheers :)

something wrong thier as most xr6t fgs pull 0-100 in 4.8secs that iv seen
guess its all on the driver
fpvrulz21 2 years ago
Well that ones there is a manual, look closely , it loses a lot of time when he hits the clutch.
The auto is much quicker when it comes to acceleration for 0-100's or 1/4 mile times.
And yeah you're right , up to the driver for a manual.
billybodybuilder 2 years ago
i don't think it is a manual if u look closely the way he launched it if that was a manual it would have staled plus with the man the launch assist would have been used
plus the 0-100 times in the auto and man isnt realy that much diff as the launch assist is what alot of the turbos are using to push the 4.8sec mark to 100 and a 12.8 1/4 hmmm
fpvrulz21 2 years ago
It's an auto. The dash says "D", which is the default setting for the Sequential Sports Shift Automatic gearbox (he left it in full auto, otherwise it would have read the gear number if sequential or manual).

I rkn my BA XR6 is quicker than that. I have a full exhaust, airbox, underdrives and custom tune and run 14.3 down the 1/4 and that is with standard cams and diff. Will be able to get 13.8 with a diff upgrade and cams and a custom tune.

fg xr6 turbo's do 13.4 down the quarter stock and 0-100 in 5.1 . Read any of the reviews on the net my friend, it's there in black and white. My best is 5 sec & 13.1 using g-tech, 100% stock.

Thank goodness Ford have decided 2 stick with the barra..so its here to stay. Ford r going 2 invest $28m to keep building this cracker of an engine so it meets the tuff new euro emission laws.
Lets hope they decide 2 export so the car is more profitable 4them..that way they'l always build it as long as the profit keeps comming in..They really need 2export 2 the U.S.A!!!
