People need to remember the power of a barra na is more than a stock 2j or rb running its factory twin turbos and thats what they don't realize. In the Australian market they are competing with holden not Nissan or Toyota. The barra is 100% Australian made and design un like the holden garbage who imports both the v8 and v6 and runs that junk wheres the 3.6 v6 holdens make 1200hp yea nah they don't and its Uttar junk the holden guys know this and barra swap their commodores or run a ls. For those who don't know ford Australia ran cross flow heads in the 80s it was originally a Japanese design and used bosh efi but ford whent on to run single cam in the next generation engine before the barra then went twin cam in the barra the turbo was used on some limited numbers of Falcons in the 80s this has been in the making for years. Holden in the 80s ran the Nissan RB 30 single cam from the r31 skyline. Then went Buick 3.8 v6 and had a supercharged one that only made 170 kw meanwhile the fg barra had 195 kw na. then holden ran the 3.6 junk. So ford has put in so much development in the 6 cylinder engines. The 250cube goes back to the late 60s when it was single barrel carb no cross flow
I'm not an expert on speed engines like this, but the description of the whole thing sound awesome and complete. I just built a scale model by monogram in 1/24 that by the way, I imported from Down Under to Mexico, and I could dimension how small this engine's block is, along with an impressive turbo system. I wandered around youtube looking for this kind of video and finally, I got it. Thank you for the great video.
Too bad the tracks absolutely trashed now. Shoddy local government engineer wound back the designs to save money. Now it's wavey and unusable. They're not going to try and fix it. Such a shame.
Vcm e5 will that sound similar to stock i want something that is next step from stock nothing to loud that will upset neighbours at 5am i have hsv headers with a 2.5 inch walkinshaw catback
yes we know but they arent coming off, we took the caliper off, ran bolts through the thread release holes, they are seized on proper. The issue is the clearance was too tight to begin with.
Imagine if that Ferrari on Fast and Furious 1 had this engine and beat the Supra on Prairie Ave...they would of stop making the rest of the fast and furious movies..."More than you can afford pal...Ferrari" the sound of the V-12 LS revving 🤣
Surely with the bazillion kincrome tools you got, you can lever them off somehow? The edge is hidden by the wheel boss, won't see the results of the love taps.
For a minute there I thought I was seeing some record numbers, then I realised it was 1/8 mile mixed in!…you will have to excuse me because I’m old and the last time I collected a time card was under the big ufo at Eastern Creek 🤙
They are very similar except the torque split is slightly different in the B8’s and they have torque vectoring via brakes. The B7 is the last of the proper analogue Quattro. It’s a constant 60 rear and 40 front in normal driving conditions.
I have a 2002 WRX wagon blue (Original owner) and I think I was told it was within the first 100 off the assembly line. Bought it in late 2001 and got it in 2002. The bugeye is solid as long as you do not make engine mods.
When you show up to a KOTS and a guy who holds the Mickey Thompson World record shows up on a 275/60/15 radial. You just give him your entrance money and go home. Or test and tune. Argg!!!!😢😢
Old video I know, but do you have any input on total removal of material before you compromise the nitride layer? I have read the nitride can be as deep as 0.002", but then have also read that the hardest layer of the nitride is only 0.0002" deep meaning any real removal of material would compromise the nitride and you'd have to re-nitride. Any insight to that? I have a nice center iron and access to a surface grinder, but wondering if I'd need to re-nitride afterwards. Great video BTW. Thanks,
