Learning how to DRIFT! in-car TUTORIAL - Torq Hub Media
Nope, this isnt a sponsored video, and there wasnt a gun to my head either... This was just a great experience for anyone looking for a great start into the sport of drifting. Despite the sweltering heat, Ken Leong and his team of instructors gave me an awesome day out on the skid pan, learning the finer techniques in the art of sliding a full size car.

Main thing is WE'RE BACK! And we're doing some of your favourite stuff... FABRICATION! Kurt will be giving us his best tips n tricks for modifying exhaust pipes, TIG welding aluminium (or aluminum for our 'Murican viewers) and ticking some more much needed jobs off the list for this poor XY Falcon. So grab ya favourite bevvy, take a seat with your bestest doggo, and enjoy as our mate stacks some dimes and we kill some time down the shed.
Big ups to Plazmaman as always for their cracking Plazmaclamps and aluminium which never fail to look stunning and get the job done, aswell as JNT for the killer aussie made mandrel bends. We personally wouldnt use anything else... not sponsored btw, we just love Aussie made gear!

Welcome back to the Radial Runabout build series!
Our buddy Liam has dropped in for us his VP Commodore ute, and Kurt has a BUNCH of fabrication work to do on this beast...
Today we're getting stuck into fabricating the hot and cold side piping for the intercooler. These pipes are CHUNKY! You wont believe just how good it turns out!? An amazing job by our boy Kurt as always.

Lets get down to the Nitty Gritty here...
It's time to actually modify the brake line bracket, make the brake line for real, and show you guys my concerns towards clearance. *Spoiler Alert* It's all going to work out how we like. But come along for the ride as we show you some things to think about when upgrading the braking system on your Commodore.

Well, the fun and games continue on this Turbo LS Commodore ute and we're on the home stretch! All that's left is to mount the B&M Transcooler, modify the steering rack position to clear the starter motor, and put it all back together!
This is an SBE LS2 6.0L V8 with a Borgwarner 80mm T6 turbo. Will be backed by a Reid case Powerglide and hopefully go ~850rwhp. Stoked to have it back together and ready for its next stage of plumbing and wiring.

Under The Cover - A Torq Hub series covering viewers cars in detail.
Come and take a look under the cover of this very special classic. Luke's 1950 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special. With its all original Cadillac V8, 4speed automatic, and hydraulic powered windows and bench seat its a total throwback to days gone by. A little piece of historic Americana, living down under.
Big apologies for the video quality in a few sections, had a lens and software issue with one of my cameras which wasnt picked up until after filming. Wasnt going to make poor Luke sit through a whole second interview, so it is what it is... wont happen again, I promise!

Welcome back to the channel!
Well, time for a change of pace. We're leaving the Lion's Den and getting into a Blue oval project. Our buddy Cam has bought us his STOUT 9-second Barra powered Falcon for a Process West intercooler and 3" aluminium piping upgrade... so once again Kurt gets to flex his skills and knowledge on us, while making a killer car even BETTER!
Having already run 9.97 @ 137mph off the footbrake, using the Australind Automatics built powerglide with transbrake, Monsta Torque built engine, and Haltech Elite ECU, this big girl will be chasing 8s for sure!

After breaking through the procrastination, and mental barrier that was the fear of not knowing with painting the engine bay, It was time to get back to things we were a little more familiar with...
We gave the front end suspension a pretty thorough overhaul, and although this is meant to be "Slapping it back together", of course there's only so much we can let our standards slip, haha! Be sure to check out a couple of neat tricks to help tidy up your own 2nd gen Commodore that can be done easily and on the cheap!

Making big power on somewhat experimental engine combinations needs a hell of a lot of data acquisition to keep it safe. After all, without data all you have is opinions. So in this video, we're going to give you a real brief rundown on what our buddy Matt has bought to keep his compound turbo 1JZ-GTE powered JZX100 Toyota Chaser safe under high stress levels at the top end of the track.
This isn't meant to be an unboxing video, or a product review for MoTeC... more of just a show and tell video, which will tell you why a $2000 base level ECU system probably wont quite cut the mustard.
