To fellow e series owners.

Hey guys and girls, Some of you may know about my EB 2 'S' pack. Many mods have been completed, But as the car has been off the road for 1 year as of today, i have run my race with it. Problems with the rebuilding/modding have sometimes taken me to really low depths, with only a few things working for me.
(Here is a pic for those that dont know it.)






So i have chosen to update, the new car is a ba mark 2, And therefore i need space. I will be stripping the car asap, and parts will be avaliable. I will update soon with prices etc.


I must say thanks to all who have ever helped, given advice, taken my advice yada yada yada.....
I will miss taking the eb out again, but i just cant keep throwing money at it. Such a shame, But thanks again to e series/ozecruisers members.


Cheers
Scott

On a side note, In my near 3 years of being around the traps here, i have made some very close friends, which is the best part of this whole club idea. But its not just a club, but for me it has been like an extended family for some members. I just hope the rest of the members here can experience the same feeling as me, by getting involved as much as they can in the ozecruisers forum.

cheers

Congrats on the BA mate. I feel your pain with the EB and im shattered that it didn't work out for you. The car is in immaculate condition exterior wise and it will be sad to see it go :(

[Sorted]

lol too much work and you chucked it in, i knew you were mental when i saw your car gutted...............lol

At the very least your still in a Ford :eclipsee_

Now you will have to get Wade to step up and do B-Series Cams

Where is the pic of your new car

[gthofan]

I pick the new machine up tomorrow, after work. Its a stock 2005 mark 2 futura, but it shouldn't ramain that way too long hehe.

Scott has put alot of work into the EB but the problem was that he would fix one thing then something else will fail. Bit of a 1 step forward 2 steps back formation. It has been off the road for 1 year (TODAY) and despite the work he has done it still has a bit to go and he can't afford to catch trains/ buses for another year

What friends :P

Sorry had to say it. Shame the EB project turned into such a disaster but the BA should be great.

[stalker]

i know the feeling, seems every time i do something, another part dies, i got a short circuit somewhere which is blowing a 10 amp fuse and killing my windows and stereo...

sorry to hear the project got to much. good luck with the BA.

[DEVL-XR]

What problems did you encounter mate? Anything wrong with the AU motor?

[TOASTED]

well that is sorta sad but sorta good to hear. mate u might miss the eb but the BA will be SOOOO much easier i.e. things (hopefully) wont break 1 bit after another.

one of our young apprentices may be interested in some of your parts, ill let him know. do u have a build thread?

cheers

[gthofan]

braden- The problems were badly leaking power steering line, cracked pedal box, and i still had to pay $800 to get it re registered.

craigos....- I had a build thread going, but i rarely updated it.

[Dezza]

All this after it was regularly cutting out, the seats are a disaster zone (Sorry Scott but they are :P), the fun you had with the locks, and the fact you did about 35kms with the new clutch before the pedal box went.
