Awesome content from you guys and I've already watched the Overtaking Lane video which was great and great to hear that you offered other competitors the use of your Dyno that's great sportsmanship on your behalf
Thank you guys. While many will say the build, the car and the challenge was your enjoyment too. I have no doubt the video editing and shooting was for all our benefits. So, for that I thank you both very much. My only criticism, i believe where the vehicle lacked was in having such a heavy tune on the engine while running stock parameters on the gearbox. But thats nit picking. Im impressed
Thanks mate. It actually didnt hold up all that bad even with all the torque reduction on shifts removed. Its fun to hate on it but really it all held up bloody well.
@@NuggetGarage mate, i don't wanna hate on it at all. Im a Ford man when you raced that Commodore i cheered for ya falcon like it was an AFL grand final. May i please ask, if you were to do anything differently than you did. What would it be, and why? Thanks guys
I guess i regret not road testing it and finding the gremlin and not running a 12 first hit. The car isnt registered so i guess we didnt really have a choice.
If you are going to keep drag racing this thing, I think you should do the S3 and S4 solenoid delete. This is the best way to make the auto last, unless you have figured out how to adjust the shift time (not line pressure) in the tune. I had a quick search for BA ECU pinouts, looks like S3 solenoid is on pin A17 and solenoid S4 is on pin A18, trace the wires, cut the wire, leave trans side of wire flapping in the wind, ground ECU side of each wire to ground via a 27 ohm, 5 watt resistor (the big white ceramic jobbies). That will make it last. It does sound like its shifting pretty well at the moment, which is surprising for an old BTR. Keep up the good work blokes
Nugget + $100 reach around = awesome nugget. Love the video as always guy's. The only thing i can say is it would have been great to get a build video then a drag video. Anyway's only a suggestion love all your vids great to see you guy's get a win👍👍👍🥃
Good to see our EA Falcon when you ran the 12.7 were out doing base runs with it and ended up with 16.9 ... not bad for center fire injection 300k engine and manual :). Loved the series and hope that we/others can join this year !! :)
Who doesn't love the sound of a V8? But you CANNOT beat the cheap HP you get from bolting on a turbo. My mate spent $10K on a Cleveland that was good for 60K. It was an excellent engine...but the price. I have got 50% gains at the treads just by turning up my boost (still safe), adding a cheap Chinese intercooler and remapping the factory ECU. Love the channel. Could you be a little more Aussie, though? I want to see a Ned Kelly tattoo or the Southern Cross and always wear a stubbie holder with no bottom on your wrists yeah? Then you would fit in well in my country town. :)
Ok mate will do. We actually filmed a bit more of it but not enough to do a full episode on the build, time was short also so the entire lot was done in 2 mornings before work.
Im a huge fan of the build fellas! You said you were thinkin of putting the engine in another donor vehicle. An rx8 with a blown motor would be the prefect donor. And its only been done once or twice on the planet as far as I can tell.
Never weld a Falcon diff. Minispool is cheap and solid. Though a 3.45 XR6 diff gears is what you needs, more so with those big tyres. Water injection? Windscreen washers do the job. Temps? A bag of ice into the intake path.
Hey Boys, Great work, loved all the Nuggets so far, I've got a name for this one, The Blue Poo. came to me as I was waiting to complete the paperwork ;)
Just shows to go ya. You can pick up a cheapie, throw a hair dryer and a quick tune and run as hard as the big boys costing 000's more. All for fun and a continuous smile. All using the OZ phrase "She'll be right, mate."
Yeah but the F6 looks hot af! You should be proud of that beast. It was an F6 tune they baselined this car with they just didn’t load the auto box part. Meaning yours is only a couple of mods away from big power numbers too. Get some bigger injectors and a flash tuner to start with.
You guys know there's a fella doing fundraising for cancer council on Facebook with 'shitbox edition' in block letters on metal decals. Tailor made for this rig.
Could you show the process of the turboing process fellas, I'm in same boat as you and i have a n/a ba and want to start drag racing.... I w amt to be able to have good fun for a budget as I want to learn to. And also with regards to the rods. Would it be wise if I just flipped it upside down and just replaced rods with some bigger ones? Just for some safe, reliable fun as a beginner drag racer, I'd love it to last at least a year.
Bloody impressive! $100 ($250 new) China turbo, NA motor with close to 300000km on it, crappy BTR, open Diff, no Intercooler (almost 80C iat’s) running 12’s and making 370rwhp. 😂
Friggen aye,awesome,12.7👍great job guys! I was interested in the turbo magna too as i also own a gto,basically a magna motor with twin turbo 4 wheel drive! lol at the end bloopers
So the torque reduction worked by putting it in 2nd? I’m having an issue where in mine if I boot it it’ll shift itself to 2nd or sometimes 3rd. I have a haltech plug n play.
I have a set of what i believe are XR6 Turbo injectors i bought by mistake you can have for it if you want them. I am fairly local to you guys as well so I can drop them off.
It's shows your true character that you offered the other guys use of the dyno! You two are true gentlemen sportsmen!
Please keep going ?? I think we would all love to see how far you can push a BA na Barra ?
You guys need a 3rd driver named David so the door can have "David Ethell Hoff" on it
Awesome stuff dudes - DIY kiwi here this loves this sort of stuff and NG is a must watch - thanks!
You took up the challenge and didn't get all serious with it and made so awesome videos. There were lots of smiles and laughs, that has to be a win
The titles misleading
Should’ve put 12 for 1200$
Your view count would go higher! 😂
Good shit boys, keep it up! 💪🙏
Check the thumb nail..... lol
Classic Aussie "She'll be right mate" attitude.

@@NuggetGarage thank you again guys, i honestly am impressed.
Should show more of the fab work, even if it’s more dodgy that woody facial hair.
Shred Shed lol the porn stache
Haha yes!
Should have added knee pads to the budget 🤣🤣🤣
This comment deserves way more likes! 👌
First thing I spotted hahaha gave me a good laugh
Ill give anyone $10 who can show me how you put a car on a 2 post lift without getting on your knee's.
@@Billo-07 it was a joke bud
@@johnnym1320 Same. I wasn't sending anyone 10 bucks lol
That VR sounded mangtastic. Music to my ears
loving how you blokes are getting better at videos. good stuff keep it up
Use the factory window washer bottle and pump. Stick carburator jet in the end of the tube for adjustment and atomization. Cheap and effective.

Keep up the good work blokes
Well done fellas! I come for the falcon, stay for the Dragna content!
thanks blokes, loved the challenge from start to finish, bring on the nxt project
watching these legends makes me feel proud to me from the mud flats. shout out roothy
Roothy is a legend!!!
Great video guys, love what can be done on such a small budget and also how modest you are ... time for some more nugget garage stickers
Thanks mate, Stickers/Shirts are coming soon.
Awesome video guys, thank you. 😁
Nugget + $100 reach around = awesome nugget. Love the video as always guy's. The only thing i can say is it would have been great to get a build video then a drag video. Anyway's only a suggestion love all your vids great to see you guy's get a win👍👍👍🥃
$100 and a reach around hahahaha :P
Awesome work... Highlight of the week is when your vid drops
Loved this series so much, love seeing shit none turbocharged motors getting boost and making power
Seems Like Al was the real winner.. ha ha ha
Great stuff as always guys. Crazy how well it ran.
Bloody well done fellas! A 12 sec is worth writing home about!
Great work blokes! Bit surprised by the 12, well bloody done!
This was a fun one legends 🤙🏼 can’t wait for the next project
Good to see our EA Falcon when you ran the 12.7 were out doing base runs with it and ended up with 16.9 ... not bad for center fire injection 300k engine and manual :). Loved the series and hope that we/others can join this year !! :)
Awesome as always! I was just wondering what you were doing with your hand in your pocket while discussing Frozen? LOL
12's for $1200
Great work Guys, keep it UP!!!!
But I think you need to see if we can get a visit from Uncle Rodney
Well done guys. Thats great what you did with the ba. Should do a burnout one or best offroad cheap family car.
i have been waiting for this! :D

That's more that $1300 worth of fun.
You guys are the Aussie roadkill keep up the good content and good luck with future projects
"No good deed goes unpunished" - Turbo Yoda
Great job, just really wish you guys would show more of the fab work. It's always fun to watch a low-buck turbo kit made by pros that works.
Ok mate will do. We actually filmed a bit more of it but not enough to do a full episode on the build, time was short also so the entire lot was done in 2 mornings before work.
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this. I love it! When is it going to willowbank next?
11:08 watching those needles swing hard right .
6lbs boost two and half thousand revs.
Top series, love to hear what you did in the excel for 14's Scotty
Good ole Aussie ingenuity !
Ha I did a compression test on one recently same thing oil in the spark plug holes/above the plug on some but ran perfectly 😆bloody unbelievable!
Im a huge fan of the build fellas!
You said you were thinkin of putting the engine in another donor vehicle.
An rx8 with a blown motor would be the prefect donor. And its only been done once or twice on the planet as far as I can tell.
Oaken - Yoohoo... big summer blowout 😂
This was a cool series to watch guy's 👌 P.s thinking of you Aussies from across the ditch with the bushfires.
KEEP AT IT BOYS.
KEEP AT IT.
KEEP GOING
I went and saw frozen 2 with my girls, they enjoyed. I thought the town was going to get wiped out by the dam letting go. Oh the suspense!
Haha i went with my 3 girls and 2 boys, the boys are what caused the toilet breaks
thats sick good job
cut a rusty datsun 120y's firewall, shoehorn the driveline with a welded diff in, sit in the back seat and you should run a nice little 10 atleast
Cheers for the great content as always
S5 solenoid is adjustable. Wind in for more line pressure. About 3/4 of a turn in my skid car gives very very sharp crisp gearchanges.
Yup, dead set legends. Keep on keeping on you fellas, nailing it like a pair of champions
That wastegate is nuts!
It's bigger than the exhaust.
Never weld a Falcon diff. Minispool is cheap and solid. Though a 3.45 XR6 diff gears is what you needs, more so with those big tyres.
Water injection? Windscreen washers do the job.
Temps? A bag of ice into the intake path.
Lol have a go at the front bar! May as well take it off and throw it away.
Bloody thing would probably chop my l98 calais though.
When all else fails....turn everything off!! Nice work lads 👌
Al got a reach around!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha 12s pretty churr and glad you won against the holden👍
10s for 2000 sounds like a great idea
two top blokes.
Going so fast the camera falls off is the new "Danger to manifold"! :D
Hey Boys, Great work, loved all the Nuggets so far, I've got a name for this one, The Blue Poo. came to me as I was waiting to complete the paperwork ;)
Haha
Top Job, went better than we expected 👌
Loved it! You guys should see how little more you can spend and get it into the 10s. 10s for 2k challenge maybe 👌
I reckon we do it
Fuck oath 🏁
"$100 and a reach around" LOL
Love it guys. Very Entertaining.
Got to love those Barras
Nice/funny entertaining project 👍
Should've used the front screen wash for the water/meth injection? ,👍
Well done on the 12's for $1,200, but what is a reach around really worth?! Content is always improving, keep up the great work!
Just shows to go ya. You can pick up a cheapie, throw a hair dryer and a quick tune and run as hard as the big boys costing 000's more. All for fun and a continuous smile. All using the OZ phrase "She'll be right, mate."
I can't wait for.. "not fantastic"!
Why not a windscreen washer for the water/meth injection ?
That was fucken awesome! Loved it boys!!
More power than my F6 Typhoon 😢
Wow you actually bought an FPV when a standard ford does the same job if not better 😂 with money left over too.
@@agga3955 see how much more the F6 is worth than the modified regular Ford in 10yrs time. 😂
Yeah but the F6 looks hot af! You should be proud of that beast. It was an F6 tune they baselined this car with they just didn’t load the auto box part. Meaning yours is only a couple of mods away from big power numbers too. Get some bigger injectors and a flash tuner to start with.
T Dawg shhhhhh shut up everyone’s gonna keep em
You guys know there's a fella doing fundraising for cancer council on Facebook with 'shitbox edition' in block letters on metal decals. Tailor made for this rig.
And just saw it at about the 16min mark, well done lads. 👍
12's! Good job!
It alway the cruiser pulling Henry forward....
Sloppy Mechanics would be proud ;)
Could you show the process of the turboing process fellas, I'm in same boat as you and i have a n/a ba and want to start drag racing.... I w amt to be able to have good fun for a budget as I want to learn to. And also with regards to the rods. Would it be wise if I just flipped it upside down and just replaced rods with some bigger ones? Just for some safe, reliable fun as a beginner drag racer, I'd love it to last at least a year.
Bloody impressive! $100 ($250 new) China turbo, NA motor with close to 300000km on it, crappy BTR, open Diff, no Intercooler (almost 80C iat’s) running 12’s and making 370rwhp. 😂
Shit hot boys! Who knew? Chinesium! The new performance materiel!
Friggen aye,awesome,12.7👍great job guys! I was interested in the turbo magna too as i also own a gto,basically a magna motor with twin turbo 4 wheel drive! lol at the end bloopers
Nice vid loved it well done on the challenge
That's why you go with the mighty vr lol
nice power. can only assume thats pretty much 100% duty cycle on the injectors?
Shall be right Henry, Ford is strong...hahaha...
So the torque reduction worked by putting it in 2nd? I’m having an issue where in mine if I boot it it’ll shift itself to 2nd or sometimes 3rd. I have a haltech plug n play.
This is glorious...
15.33 suddenly looks 10x more awesome
Love it blokes!
Kick ass
Fuck yeah 10's for 2k sounds good to me. Love ya work boys
Yeah! So keen
I have a set of what i believe are XR6 Turbo injectors i bought by mistake you can have for it if you want them. I am fairly local to you guys as well so I can drop them off.
Falcons are the best. Got a 1998 EL XR8 tickford I'm doing some work on at the moment.
intercooler would probably take it down to 40 or 50 degrees, that'd get ya some density for not a lot of cash
Another great video boys! Success makes good content! 👍 But failure can be even better content!😉🤣🤣
Fair chance you'll see plenty of "better content" then lol
This car is now the wet dream of the previous owner who put that kit on it
Turbo even has custom graphics!! Bargain I say
