RTV was Brolga. Engines and trans also had codes too, Dingo was the standard 6 for BA while Gull was the turbo. Sabre and Rapier were used for 6 speed manual and 6 speed auto. G9 is the code for Typhoon.

I've seen the term 'Seagull' used on the description of an AU2 PCM with a 2R23 Model Code. Looking that up on AFF Parts, I can only see reference to a 5.0L V8 or LPG.
So either this is the code for the 200kW V8 (because the 220kW popped up I thought with 2R53 code), or the dedicated LPG Falcon which came out with the AU2. My guess is that Seagull is for the LPG cars. I have access to an AU2 dedicated LPG wagon, so I'll see if I can find anything. Lukeyson
