At the Sandown 500 there was a phantom XR8 ute with a XY style skaker sitting up out of the bonnet!! it looked absolutely fantastic....a sure thing of what Ford MUST do for next GT! whoever it was, i congradulate you on a fantastic looking job, well done! it works really well with the bonnet buldge too!
did anyone else see this, and if so do they have any pictures?

You mean this one? Personally I agree that this was well done, and is a must for the GTHO if there is going to be one.

Yeah looks great but will NOT happen on any prduction car from Ford as they do not comply with Australian Design Rules.

Why don't they comply with ADR? Interesting though.

I must admit, it does look good but if I had a scoop like that I would like it to be functional, not just for show. Shame about the ADR though.

Believe me (rod c) the shaker is functional,the owner is Paul Racoualis,he's in the process of opening up the yet to be named Shaker installations and is also talking to Ford about certain issue's ,he should have a bussiness name in about 6-8 weeks.The cost will be approx.$1200-$1400. His PH. 0438722672, Paul is also a member of the FPV & XR Owners Club of Vic.
