Just Got an FTO

Just bought an FTO, keen to goto a meetup in Adelaide. Bought a red 1995 FTO, has the non mivec engine. Has a lot of ks almost 300k, but runs well.

I first saw this car when I was in highschool like 10 years ago and loved the look of it.... FINALY GOT ONE.

The car is very low since it has a bodykit, since im not used to driving a low car i literally broke the bumper the first time a parked, cracked it in two.... Need to learn to fibreglass it back up :P

Atm im trying to change the oil, but the sump plug wont come off and is very stripped, just wont come off. Going to try again with a breaker bar.

Im very impressed with the car so far though.

Welcome to the club. There are a few active members in Adelaide,so you should be able to line something up. Is that a bozz front bar or is it HKS. Bit hard to tell from your avatar.

Adelaide people! Yeah, I think I saw you post in the other thread. You'll find we're a disorganized bunch haha

Most people will just tell you to change the bar round here :lol:

You can't get matching sections of that bar, they are different in every mould. The bumper looks dated anyway, you should consider a new bumper from dstocks, he had a special on the other day not sure if it's still available.

Yep, TS front bar, D Cuatro sideskirts and Vortex rear bar are up in QLD atm, but will likely be sent back to me as no interest at this stage.
