Supercheap used to be open late on Thursday nights, I think they changed their hours though?

It's pretty amusing though, considering the XR8 next year will be reborn with the same spec engine as the FG GT, could you imagine being a HSV owner forking out all that money on a brand new GTS, then pulling up to the lights next to a FH XR8 and then sitting side by side all the way to 100 and beyond
Even more embarrasing would be the lower spec variants of the VF in HSV's stable getting whopped by a factory XR8.

Haven't you watched Bush Mechanics..........

just fab up a set of brake pads, from some bits of Mulga tree.


(and if you're low on brake fluid, remember washing powder works wonders in XD falcon braking systems....)
