One of the most iconic vehicles ever produced in Australia, this platform is the Australian modification scenes versionof Balck v White – when you put the Ford Falcon against the Holden Commodore. With along storied history, we will only focus on (and work on_ models spanning from the BA to the FGX series.

Beginning with the BA series in 2002, the Falcon marked a new era with its distinctive styling and advanced features. Central to its performance legacy was the Barra engine series, derived from the Ford Intech motor with roots dating back to Ford’s first mass-produced inline-six engine in 1941. The Barra engines, one of the most iconic modified engines in history, along with the Boss and Miami supercharged V8 engines, were manufactured locally, offering a range of power options with limitless upgrade potential.

Transmission options evolved over the years, from early BTR 4-speed and Tremec T5Z gearboxes to the advanced ZF 6-speed automatic and TR6060 manual transmissions on later models.

Special editions like the 50th Anniversary, GT Cobra Rip Curl Edition, Craig Lowndes Edition, and XR8 Enforcer highlighted the Falcon’s cultural impact and enthusiast appeal, offering unique styling cues and performance enhancements.But it is really the performance side of thing where the Falcon earns its place in history The Falcon’s modern styling, technological advancements, and responsive nature to modifications and boost set it apart from its predecessors. Emphasizing higher revs over low-end torque, the Falcon’s dynamic driving experience catered to enthusiasts seeking both spirited performance and everyday usability.

At ECC, modified Falcons has been a thing for us as long as we can remember. With ECC roots being based in JDM turbocharged engines, the introduction of an insanely hpapabale boosted engine to rival the old LS was an eye opener – and hundreds of moadified Falcon builds later, nothing has changed except the technologyand tuning suites available to us now are really pushing the envelope with what we can make with these things, as well as the endless custom features available such as multi mapping, flex fuel, ghost cam etc etc.

Despite the conclusion of local production, the Falcon remains an iconic symbol of Australian automotive heritage, celebrated for its powerful engines, dynamic handling, and enduring legacy. As long as Falcon owners are around, this is a platform that willbe heavily modified and many barriers broken – and ECC will continues to support Falcon enthusiasts with the mot innovative and effective aftermarket solutions and upgrades for the foreseeable future.
