Nice work! I'm doing up a rough BA at the moment too... people say I'm crazy and I should just buy an FG, but I mean give it 10 years and all the FGs will be in the same condition too... thanks for the great video! :)
@@craig84downunder i was going to do that however it had a rear main leak and front main was leaking, and I had a fresh motor sitting there, so it just made sense to put the new one in and sell the other one. At least I know this motor is good
I took my turbo out years ago to change the wastegate sol, I forgot to put that gasket on but haven't noticed any change in power. Its a pain to get that turbo out its been out twice (in the 15 years I've had the car)
Was almost in the same situation - was looking at a BA XR6 Turbo up in Perth, said runs and drives. On the day I was going to look at it, seller says needs a tow. Backed out of that deal so fast.
Yep, had one with an exhaust leak myself, the flange gasket blew its ass out on the lower side, just replaced all 3 exhaust side gaskets to be safe lol.
Buy a camera or iPhone what ever you have stand something that is hight adjustable for video porpoise. In regards to cleaning the under side grab two drive upable car stands. Much easier to get under and are just a good thing to have around saves your back and time fucking around with jack and stands. You and the car have heaps of potential mate keep it up 🤟
Got a xr6 turbo ba Ute ( white no damage and mechanical A1 ( 4K in 2020 ) only had 160k on the clock Sold it for 5500 4 days later Even now I think about it still cheap
Sad to see you younger generation not restoring these classic cars and turning them into drift cars. I own an immaculate BA XR6T with only 130,000kms and these cars need to be saved.
I wouldn't say their classics they are a dime a dozen here in australia. And it's just not worth restoring it. I have a black 2005 bf xr6 turbo. I purchased in 2019 for $4200 body aint the best (few scratches and dents) would cost me around 8 to 9k just to get the dents fixed and resprayed not worth the outlay as ill never get my money back on it if I did
If I had the money for an xr6t I'd go for it and fix it up I have a stock ba xr6 that I picked up in 2020 for 4300 with 199k on the clock was in pretty good condition other than the stereo not working but put a single din head unit in since then
I just brought a fgx xr8, but i cant bare to sell the bf xr6t its just too nice (even though it only gets driven once a month now and no garage for it)
No way, I used to know the owner of this car he had the stock barra turbo for a while but it blew and then he copped a aftermarket turbo for $250 on FB marketplace, the tune was done prior to the aftermarket turbo being installed, might need a retune.
Definitely is turbo as I checked the vin before purchasing. In regard to the MKII are you certain on that? Before buying this I looked at another ba xr6 turbo and that had the badge as well. Judging by the condition of my car it could be a possibility that the boot has been changed before

So Perfect if some of it was returned to standard and cleaned up. easily worth putting back on the street
Valve stem seals are alot easier to change than a whole engine, just use the leak down tester to hold shut the valves

Was wondering which is better I’m thinking about getting xr6 or xr8 both 2007 can u please help me decide
@@z7stunna I’m biased I’d always go xr6 prefer the turbo, xr8’s aren’t the best motors to get power out of
Depends what you're looking for... The XR6 Turbo is better for making power and speed but an XR8 is a better cruiser, with that V8 sound...
If you want power get the xr6 turbo if you want an V8 get a holden with the LS motor instead of the xr8

Has a MKII badge on the boot which leads me to think it was originally an NA. The turbo never had the MKII badge

The BA’s only came out in 6 speeds in the MK2 otherwise they were all 5 speed manual.
that is incorrect, they do have Falcon on the back with a MKII Badge if it is a MKII
