Territory Turbo looks sick, hope it works out for you. Currently nursing a BA Falcon through its dying days, been a great car but the interior plastic quality was awful and the centre console/aircon/radio is dead due to suspected wiring loom detaching from inside the dash. Known weak point on BA's apparently. Love to own an FG one day, great vids!

@georgeauto Жыл бұрын

Thank you Jay , hopefully you can get the BA sorted , give it a search on KZfaq or maybe give Barra Scan a call he might have a few tips for you

@georgeauto Жыл бұрын

@mrbnanna8948 9 ай бұрын

stock, the transmission in manual mode feels slugish already, you can get it tuned to shift a lot quicker for the turbo zf as they can take a fair ammout of abuse and shift super quick when tuned right, not sure how well getting an na zf tuned will compare, i doubt its the actual kit bc the signal should be almost instant

When you say they won't work with an aftermarket gearbox, do you mean turbo 400/ glide conversion? Or will they not work with a rebuilt zf?

@BrentonCrude 11 ай бұрын

How quickly does the paddle shift set up revert to drive? Because one thing I have found frustrating when using the manual gate in an automatic car is that they sometimes revert to drive far more quickly than I would like.

@georgeauto 11 ай бұрын

Instantly if you just click the gear lever back to normal drive , paddles only work in tiptronic

@BrentonCrude 11 ай бұрын

@@georgeauto It's just that mine tends to override my shifts, for some reason, but only when I am slowing down. Despite being on the +/- gate, it begins to function like an automatic again.

Being an automatic, any reason you can’t just leave it in D and not worry about changing gears?

@Deadshilz 7 ай бұрын

Because thats a good way of blowing up your trans in a modded falcon. Controlling the shifts yourself decreases the chances of your input shaft from snapping.
