Ford Falcon XB

Not sure if anyone has noticed this yet, but when upgrading the stock engine and fitting new supercharger, the title of it says it’s ‘Race Spring and Dampers’, pretty sure this is incorrect. Not sure where I should have posted this, so hopefully this is in the correct spot.

What? You don’t like springs and dampers in your air flow? Ha!

Not on this occasion haha

NICE LOL

For some [me being one], it’s been like this from day one of the game. I’ve always had the ‘Race Spring and Dampers’ header for superchargers. It just one those little things you’ll have to get used to.

Yes, I’ve had this on most cars since the start too. Only a minor nuisance though as you say.

Haven’t been here since day one (still have the day one cars for some reason :P) but had it for a couple months now, this is the first time I have really ventured in the the muscle car tuning/upgrading, so this is the first time I really used a supercharger seeing as I usually use turbo.

It’s not going to be a nuisance. I’m just seeing if this has been noticed yet :stuck_out_tongue:

Well, engines DO have springs (in valves) and dampers (in motor mounts) in them…

It’s almost as bad as the car page for the Golf R stating that it is Europe only and yet they are available here year in and year out in the US.

who cares, stupid yanks are trying to claim the XB Falcon as one of their own if you haven’t noticed the little bit of dunny roll as their flag. the XB Falcon was an Australian Exclusive model, typical yankee morons trying to claim everything as their own.

Ford cars are shown as American because the actual manufacturer is an American company. The '69 Mini was listed in FH1 as German is because the company is under German ownership now. The Eclipse is listed as a Japanese car even though every Eclipse ever built was assembled in Normal, Illinois, USA, and it was intended primarily for the US market. A bit of advice: if you get your facts straight before you start trash-talking people, you won’t come across like an ignorant clod.

Indeed. There were Pontiacs and Mercurys (Mercuri?) which were only sold here in Canada, and the Camaro is assembled here, not 5 miles from my house. Doesn’t make them “Canadian” cars.

Why you gotta go make us look bad like that? If you’re gonna get all ignorant on us, at least pretend to be from some other Country or something.

What do you suggest? Should they have separate Ford manufacturers with different flags? Some of the Ford cars in this game were also mostly made in Britain.

Just remember to install the muffler bearings!

And follow up with . . .
