Well I had great fun in my auto even without my sequential shift working, in power mode it kicked down on queue without missing a beat, and just some breaking in the corners, was alot of fun.

All that is missing from this thread is pics from ALEX ..... :

Still have to get around to having BF to BA convertor made as the outputs are different, I was tempted to put the BA one back in for the cruise to get the SSS back, but I just cant go past the looks of the BF shifter with or without working SSS.

As Krys said I just had graduation last night so I'm still reeling from that, and I have tons of work to do on the LTD to make Vicroads happy, but I'll do my absolute best to have them up asap!

It was an awesome cruise by the way, had a great time at apollo bay at Krys' expense Thanks to John for organising and driving me up there!

Fair enough mate. It's a pity you couldn't fake it by just fitting the BF fascia and knob (I know the BF fascia is smaller/skinnier than the BA one).

BA to BF is completely different in just about every way you can imangine (was done on purpose).

Just a few shots my girlfriend took on the cruise, and a big thanks to all the E-Series guys for allowing me to bring the AU! :

Also, any comments on my new spoiler? Anyone see it? :
