I’ve watched your channel about the Territory a few times and I’m stunned how well both you and your Son have achieved.
amazing comment thank you mate! what was your favourite part? any requests for future videos? thanks for your comment
I love it! Just when the terry thought it was gonna die, You bought it and brought it back to life, and better!
territory looks so good now...huge difference!!... well done to you and your son and all the hours you guys put in, well worth it
Thank you so much! Yeah it’s come along way ! Took us ages this video made it look easy but the best thing was it Thomas and I learned so much
'Never trust anyone online': immortal words. You've amassed quite a car collection, but please, make sure you hang onto this one, a Territory Turbo, and a Ghia, at that. It's amazing how rare some parts are for the local Fords. One thing that I am disappointed with is that I think that Ford should have done a lot more to provide ongoing parts support for these amazing cars, especially given their long 'useful lives'.
I will Endeavour to keep it as long as I can, my missus unfortunately even after doing all this work cleaning it up doesn’t really like it. However literally 2 days ago I upgraded the ICC to the new Kayhan Linux CarPlay unit + a new steering wheel and she’s loving it now! Thanks for your comment
Mine ticks too 😂 I think they are just a shitty blower motor
Took me about a year to find a nice TTG in Sydney. I found myself in a similar situation, in need of a bigger family car.
Logically after owning and working on Barras most my life a TTG was the ideal option.
One finally popped up at a dealership asking for a fair bit knowing what they had. We pulled up and this thing was immaculate and I couldn't walk away. Since my year and a bit of ownership I have yet to see another one on the streets of Sydney.
So far I've only done basic mods like BOV, intake and debung the exhaust. As well as upgrading to a Kayhan system and full security system.
Only just discovered your content and glad to see some Territory stuff happening.
Cheers for some inspiration, love yours and your sons work.
Also have a nitro blue FG xr50
Just found your channel today, very cool stuff. You must be so proud of your son, he seems like an incredibly bright young bloke. Well done.
Thank you so much! yes im so proud of him and grateful that we can spend great quality time together
The territory, with the exception of the jaguar f pace svr, is the only SUV i would buy. Its an actual sports utility vehicle. Cant wait to see more!
thanks mate! thats interesting to hear your opinion
The car is a credit to you and your son, great work 👍
Thank you kind sir! Still not perfect but we will slowly fix stuff
I spotted this on marketplace when it was listed and saw plenty of flags but didnt realise it was that bad. Great job!
No way ! Lucky you didn’t jump onto it , were you one of the 56 people that saved the ad ?
Its sweet how this territory has progressed from where it was to now. I ended up buying a 07 Ghia in Ego too after watching the first few videos, just need to swap the interior to black with a sy2 parts ghia i got. definitely got me wanting to do it now after watching this today.
Amazing mate thanks for the comment ! All the best too with the interior swap update me if you want when you get it in
Wonderful to see you and your sick territory keep up the great work
Thank you mate ! Appreciate the comment
love the work that you and your sons are doing on it, came by your video randomly and learned quite a lot which i can apply to when i work on my misses territory keep up the good work guys
Bloody hell mate I wish I had the money and the patience you and Thomas have, beautiful job, you both should be very proud of yourselves.
Thankyou mate! you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it! thanks for the comment
Great to see you guys back ,top effort mate ,👍
Thanks mate appreciate the comment
awsome video man , nice to find shit out about my own car i didnt know , basically have the exact same car and mine is in about the same condition yours was before you put in the work , im in northern vic aswell and want to slowly start upgrading a few things here and there , ill be watching this vid again at some stage for info when i start digging into it, but just a daily for now! keep em coming brother
Thanks man! what have you got planned to do on yours? a lot of them have been bit neglected, took a lot of effort to bring it back but well worth it
That's cool as top work Thomas and George👍🍻
Thanks mate ! Appreciate the comment
Great update and really good information that you share in this clip to help fellow ford and car fans. Thank you George and Thomas.
Thankyou ! Glad you enjoyed it ! And appriciate me letting you know that you did also means a lot !
FK YES!!!!! Been hanging for Territory content 💯🔥💦🤙🏽💪🏽👍🏽
Thanks mate appreciate the comment
15?
Get this kid into a trade he's a natural and a great worker.
Nice car too.👍
Thankyou yes I know eventually he will do an apprenticeship
This would be the ultimate sleeper 🤙 definitely keen to see if finished and tuned perfect
Thanks mate yes I’m thinking about doing a POV drive soon , I had the draggy out and before I tuned the launch / transmission properly she ran a 13.4 single test though so pretty happy with that for first time
I work on this at the road at the quarry. I keep seeing this car drive past me and think that’s a nice territory turbo
Thanks mate ! Is that near Melton?
Hanson on the corner of black range
Awesome stuff mate. Don't see many of these on the road so I think it's a worthwhile investment of coin and time. Love your work!
Thanks mate , they sell for so cheap I don’t get it . Such a good car for the money , well been pretty good so far
Just join. Wish all the software was for Holden to.
You make feel like buying one ❤ your information was fantastic I started looking up info as I was watching. 👍 what a great upload. God bless mate. )
thanks mate for you comment, I believe you can use HP tuners I could be wrong but it will do a similar thing, check out RUclips channel called "goat rope garage" he does LS road tuning heaps of great info on different setups
Lolks great man done a great job..
I was in the silver fg ute in caroline springs the other day…
Goes alright too 💪
Thanks mate ! Nice ute too , I have no idea how much power I have , roughly how much do u have
Mine’s a baby..
Still on the factory fitted 3576…298rwkw
Your back 🤙
Yes haha i seem to have these random long breaks, prioritie other stuff but finally got around to it , thanks for the comment
Been wondering about this car lately with the lack of updates.
Yeah been busy as with work and family stuff didn’t really priorities making videos but I guess better late then never , heaps of progress in this one did you make it to the end ?
@georgeauto sure did. Looking forward to see how it drives with the power upgrades and tune 👍
Nice video ❤ had a turbo territory many years ago top car
Thankyou mate ! I’m pretty happy with this so far what colour was yours ? Ghia or ?
Not a ghia but was white with all black leather ❤❤
Stayed in it bro. Not easy some times. Cheers
Thanks bro ! Yes 🙌 wasn’t easy still not perfect but satisfying saving it rather then wrecking
Hi mate good stuff just to let you know you can buy a cabin filter for it i believe it was an option from factory, what you have is just a screen to stop leaves and debris.
Thanks for the info! I think I have a leaf still stuck in there because its making a ticking sound when I turn fan on
These things are so underrated / they are just such nice all round suvs and unfortunately nothing quite like this exists anymore! Try finding a Range Rover sport or Mitsubishi outlander with this kind of power plant!
George is back! 🎉
Let’s gooo
Would love some cost of parts on this overall very informative thanks.
Good to see you back mate
Thankyou mate! thanks for the subscription ! appreciate your comment. Any request for next videos?
Love the content bro keep it up
Thank you sir ! Will do
Love this Awesome effort..
Thanks
Thankyou ! What for ?
"only needs a couple of things" the biggest red flag in any car listing hahah
Yeah I totally agree , kinda addicted to grabbing good deals though and obviously find satisfaction in fixing stuff with my son ! Thanks for your comment
Awesome vid. I've got a SY2 TT - totally stock, its great to see how easy it is to make substantial gains with these things. Where did you find the F6X tune? Its amazing that its possible to just flash another stock tune, and gain another safe 25kw.
hey thanks for your nice comment, I found it online I think it was PCMtec forums,
You did a good georgey boy well done
Thankyou sir! I’m sure there is more parts to come , still not done yet!
Best car video ive seen in awhile plus theres so many dodgy cars on marketplace at the moment ive been holding off all year might just end up buying new
Thanks 🙏 that’s a super nice complement , yes that’s right there is , cars are so complex though the amount of things that can go wrong is pretty much endless
I heard Ford bung the exhaust as a bit of a power restriction so the Territory wouldn’t out sell the Falcon, the Falcon being their main production vehicle
Ok really wow c you think they would leave it as the car has extra weight
Hey mate could you provide a link to the fpv territory f6x engine tune? i have a turbo ghia myself and am looking around online for the tune but cant find it
Great vid mate
Thank you ! And thanks for commenting too which part did you like the best
wow mean as terry
im currently looking for a black ghia to make into a car audio project, and she will be called bass pantha
Thankyou ! Nice that would be sick ! Let me know how it goes
two options for the sub, a 30 inch powersoft M force 10KW or a 19 inch rockford fosgate bi amped 2x 5KW
You had me at barra
Haha love it man ! Been good so far hopefully stays like this
@@georgeauto yeah mines finnally running strong again after fuel cell install
Great video nice car 🙂👍
Thankyou ! Appreciate your comment
Never buy a car with an ad that says " needs this"
its because the person cant afford to fix it, so its just passing on the issues
yeah you're right mate, well I saw potential in this, decided and never looked back just went forward
2 coats of clear is well worth it
Yeah I think I put more on the bonnet
No Territory turbo is “Junk” no matter how rough. A Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sorento and Holden Captiva are examples of “Junk”
Love your videos 👌👌👌
Glad you like them! Thanks for your comment
@georgeauto including random shit like finding the Samsonite bag was funny lol
Lovely Georgie!!
Thank you kind sir
Interesting video but a running, driving TTG for $5000 is hardly a scam!
yeah the price I was happy with, im seeing so many go for cheap these days though... the scam was really the ad saying that it only needed couple of things, if you saw all the other stuff I didn't mention in the video then... also made for a more juicy title, thanks for your comment
where did you get the f6x tune file?
I found on PCMtec forums, it may have been deleted now not sure,
You look like Ayhuncho
Cool channel
Haha thanks I looked him up is it the rapper ?
Need vids on the g6
I have her on hold at the moment , found out I need to be a qualified panel beater for any of the work to be signed off, which is annoying to I have to get a shop to fix it
Do I see some Simmons on the xr50?
Yes ! They were my old ones I’ve had on my BF before f thought I’d throw them on for a bit of a change up , got the Xr50s back on again now
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Habibi
do you plan on doing any modifications on your 50th anniversary G6, i just got mine and dont really know what to do with it and whats compatible as most videos are on the G6e
At the moment no, it’s still repairable write off , and I found out qualified panel beater needs to fix I can’t do it myself so on hold at the moment
5500 for a turbo territory Ghia???? Dude, that's not a scam that's a rough car you know is going to need work. Pay market value i.e mid teens, then you've got a scam
Scam means dishonest scheme , nothing to do with the price , misleading ad , said one thing and was another
@@georgeauto in what context though? He said two things based on what? Was it to get it to what his mechanic said would be needed to get a roadworthy? What you think it needs may not be what the next guy says it needs. A lot.of this time that sort of thing is subjective commensurate with the age of the car and the Kilometers. SY territories have been doing the rounds for a lot of years now. You got it for a dam good price, it's original appearance to anyone who's dealt with cars in any type of volume suggests 'this is gonna need some bucks spent'.
@@Coopsoldman I screenshot the ad you can read it for yourself, “needs a couple things” horn blah blah , did you watch episode one? He even states that it’s a 7 seater in the ad which it is not , came with set of wheels that he knew didn’t even fit and didn’t tell me, missing at least 10 bolts from under the car and around , tailshaft only on finger tight , cluster and ECU been cut out and changed, literally would not ID himself of give me his licence number after asking multiple times ,
I was so close to buying this one too. Thank god I didn’t
Oh no way ! Yeah I do this stupid thing where I commit without seeing the car
I thought you were young yourself
its all relative really, getting up there but still young to older people
Georgio
Let’s gooo ; how you doing bro
Yeh good mate. Still in Mexico. Will be back late Jan 😊 keep up the videos looking good 👍
Love the content and honesty, top bloke 🫡
thanks mate! appreciate the nice comment, any requests for future video ideas?
Yeeyeey
lets gooo !
