VE Wagons are the best looking wagon in commodore history. 2650 on LSA engine in my VE wagon is wicked and I am trying talk my wife into turbo her SSV wagon
@@cheveburkinshaw860 yeah which is good, my friend has a 400hp (at the wheels) r33 gtst and it loses grip so easily and he's got good tyres (continentals 245/30/19 all round) but car is way lighter than this one so makes sense
Serious question man; after repairing it I’ve driven the 2J in your background pic. but what’s it like compared to the Nissan? Stock vehicles only....... I’ve had friends with GTR’s but never had the experience 🤷🇦🇺 some tubers get trolled for good reason 😁
@ the 0:25 mark, I know who made that Australian Flag or at least back in the 1990's i did, it was a company called ACME in Perth Western Australia and at the time it was the largest flying au flag. :)
@6KillaBC do your research kid. All the muppets who die in Australia and America in high powered cars are autos . Just do 30 mins of research and you won’t reply to this.
@@natandaimzb7129 yeah nah man, sand, dirt or shit goes through the intake and it will cause havock no matter what kind of engine. All it takes is for somebody to be mowing the grass or kicking up dust into the air as you drive past
@@mickeydee3595 how many open turbo engines have you built and driven. Personally, about 10+ 800hp+ turbo LS that have lasted 2 years +, only wearing internally as a typical boosted LS would.
If you’re ever in South Australia I have a 400 kw 1200nm Toyota aristo single turbo 2JZ that’s brutal to drive id love you to review it for something out of the ordinary
Also remember selling the age, Herald and the sun newspapers at Port Melbourne automotive and aircraft industries just near the bridge, every morning i would get up at 5am and get back home by 8am ready for primary school and then high school, also on Montague st as well during after school hours as well, both papers, used to take home around $25.00 per day, due to the cost of the newspapers was at 8 cents and everyone would pay with either 10.00 cents or 20 cents thus anything over 8 cents was mine to keep, :) Government air craft factory GAF and also others including HOLDEN. :) Beast of a car those days of having that much power with out control of the power are long gone, back in the 1980's you would not be able to drive that much power without losing control or its just for drags its that simple? I bet the government will step in soon and limit how much a street driven car regsisted for road use and power it can have, if that happened, then every single car will have to go over the pits at VicRoads and other states as well to check emissions and total power at the crank, almost every after market tuner and supplier will go out of business full stop? If the government can stop Holden/ ford or the big boys from building supercars in the 1970's just think what they can do if they really wanted to?
Who the f*ck is tuning it? Sounds like the popo has an investment in the workshop Marky Mark - off to see someone who knows; or is that where your abilities are at? Engineering my little spanner 🔧
Its a Wagon! Its a B00Sted V8! Has a 6 Speed! It checks all the boxes! Just one thing i did notice though ... with 650 rwkw, how is it possible that he can floor it in 2nd, and it dosent blow the tires off it? My XR6T, only has 443 rwkw, and there is no chance in hell i can floor it under 80kmh and not blow the tires off it? I think this is an overall beautiful build ... but the numbers dont add up for me? Thoughts?
Fuck! My dream wagon to be one day... I’ve got a Series 2 VE Wagon.. but the ultimate would be turbo and on bags all round! 🤤🤤🤤 but the most thing I want is that damn sunroof! 🤙🏽
Your videos are great but enough with the Commodore content fillers. You’re closing the door on so many markets. I’d rather see a well built 300hp any type of car than an 800hp otherwise stock Commodore. We’ve all owned Commodores. Show me an off tilt Volvo or Datsun, a classic 911, a track setup Megane/Focus RS/MX5. Some EVO/STI/GTR love too. I know you can do it 👍🏻
If you have ever owned one and have a silly Side to you, these cars can have the clutch dropped every day and revved to the limited. It is very rare to blow one up or break a box
@@properaussie331 Yes i own 2, ones a 408ci with a 2300 maggy built th400, other is a built L98 with a tr6060 daily driver. Defineltly agree with you there, they can handle good beatings, but 900hp with a stnd bottom end is pretty rare to hear about usually especially in my neck of the woods.

Wagons are ugly and a last resort.
@@HULK-HOGAN1 nah man wagons are sexy, but still that's your opinion.

Another great car,good job Clay.

Why do u think Adam LZ went from auto in the Barra mustang to a sequential? Because the auto is too unpredictable
sweet video bro :D
Well done. Clay.
Very nice can't wait to get my turbo vu ss going!
Rear wheel manual with 900hp, where do I sign up?
Australia
Not too bad, my L98 is pulling 700+rwhp with a custom 7.2L stroker kit
What induction is that running, clearly you’ve got the cubes sorted (nitrided crank is it)?
Sick car, nice build. The turbo might get a tad sick after a while with no air filter though 🤪
You mean the motor might get sick👍
Yeah the engine wont do too well with shit going in
LS will run all day every day without it. Its never an issue.

900hp and stock brakes...

Obviously haven’t pushed a Holden’s breaks to the limit son
@@properaussie331 yer they are shit.... hsv are good but stock ssv brakes aren't pulling that thing up quickly.
they aren't stock brakes
SSV don’t have brembo’s as standard ? I thought they would’ve for the money they wanted for one brand new
Where can I get that turbo kit

What boost level was it running on the second tune?

Dumbass 500rwkw is 700hp. Your 6.2 turbo is fine. That’s the power it makes. Well atleast safely. Higher boost bends rods.
Also Manuel cars get 7-15% more power on dyno then auto cars do due to torque converter. Yours is probably auto im guessing?

This wagon checks every box on my list. Too bad we never got it in the US; however... I'm curious how difficult it'd be to graft a wagon rear onto a Pontiac G8.
if you can get a ute it would be easier. the utes and wagon share a longer chassis than the sedan
Sounds mean as!

U can not put enough boost thru a stock l98 to make 900
900hp motor. 700hp tyres. Probably on hub Dyno so ready 600hp @ tyres then this is makes more sense yea?
I did not see your head pinned back in the seat does not look like 900hp maybe a happy dyno
