Just stainless steel wool mate

Thanks for jumping on board mate. We've got a pretty gangster VS Maloo project about to kick off on the channel, so there will be no shortage of content... we just need more hours in the day to get them done 😅

Thanks mate

They're an awesome kit mate, easy to install, zero problems whatsoever. Hit Daniel up at reispeed.com.au and tell him the boys from torqhub sent you.

We had intentions to record a poddy with the big fella while he was here but there wasn't enough time to get it done unfortunately. The door isn't closed on it though, JBens is 100% down to do one when we can make the planets align

Thanks dude 🍻 Have done a few other videos on the ute in detail and alot of the gear is outdated in 2024, but essentially buy a harrop 2300 kit and you'd have the same (but much better) kind of build.

@@TorqHub harrop or I see your team mate has the garret turbo on his. In your opinion which drive better felt better had more HP?

@eodyeh5641 Kurt's BT1 isn't finished yet, but had plenty of Turbo 5L experiences. They are horses for courses, the power delivery is totally different. Turbo's make more PEAK HP, but blowers will make more power early. Turbo requires alot more work to fit, blower install is a bit more straight forward. You need to figure out what YOU want out of the car, and what you will use it for.

@@TorqHub I’ll sub and keep an eye out for the turbo. Thanks for all the feedback mate. gotta lot of work to do before a bit of boost goes in might see you round Bunbury. Thanks again

Always worth shouting out friendly service and quality products mate. But if you're referring to any kind of sponsorship (as we stated in the video) these coilovers were bought, we weren't paid to do the video, or given anything for free 🤷‍♂️

Thanks mate 🍻 Generally the more sidewall the better, hence why you'll see most of the offroad boys running tall profile 15's. But I think 17s are a good balance for a daily driver. Although I haven't done it on this vehicle yet, I reckon there's definitely value in fitting a catch can and a fuel pre-filter especially if you're spending long stints in super remote areas. The western filters kits are definitely the go-to in that regard.

What was spent way back when wouldn't be much of a reflection on today's pricing. But it was around 28k at time of build.

Hey Graham, yes, you can boost a stock 5.0. Keep it around 10 psi with an intercooler. I'd recommend doing stiffer valve springs at a minimum. Pay good money for a decent tuner and get a genuine walbro/bosch fuel pump. Try not to use anything Chinese besides turbo and intercooler. Turbosmart wastegate 2nd hand if you're on a tight budget.

Thanks mate! Wilwood asembly instructions says 271 loctite and 155 in-lb 🤙

@@TorqHub thanks mate

Coupla beers on Saturday mate? Looking forward to dipping into the voicemails this week 💪🏻

@@TorqHub Well. No actually, but three voice mails might have been two too many.

@FuManchu5ltr not at all mate. If there's a bunch of different questions we can always bank one for the next pod

@@TorqHub So. No reply on the text, however, was going through a photo album at work. Had photos from the decades past. Now in amongst it was some pics of my VP ute. Damn she looked good. Had the VR Senator 17”s and a VR Senator front bar. I wish I just stuck with a VP SS front bar instead. Any way, she visited me from the past in an unexpected way.

Cheers bud, glad you enjoyed the vid 🤙🏻

We love to hear it brother! Get out there and do a little bit every chance you get. It'll come together before you know it!

Thanks mate. No that supercharger isn't oem equipment mate, it's an aftermarket kit. This car is a '95 model, and the roller cams weren't introduced to these engines until the release of series 3 in late 1997. Thanks for watching!

@@TorqHub is series 3 when they went to the LS platform??

@@trentdawg2832 nah mate VS Series 3 was still Holden 304, but with a hydraulic roller cam. The LS platform was introduced in VT Series 2.

@@TorqHub what year would that have been?? Im from the states so i have no clue…i figured ‘97 cause thats when the vettes got LS1’s here

1999 here in Aus

Sounds like a good idea to us mate! It's a straight forward conversion with great potential. Hit us up anytime man!

@@TorqHub sweet bro was talking to Blake and Jason about it and they are like hurry up and get it done haha

🤣🤣🤣. We can all take that advice from time to time!

Hey Steven, we got keen for sure, but there's plenty of integrity still left in there, I've seen a lot worse, do just fine 😁. Thanks for watching, mate!

Just sets the tine for the video. Was I pumped to have sold it? Not really... but why? Well, video tells the story 🤷‍♂️ But in saying that, you clicked. So it worked 😅

S2 vs calais 🤤🤤🤤

Sometimes we just really need to sit with our thoughts and decide whether or not holding onto that car is enriching our lives. Sure, it's nice to have, and I certainly could have quite happily kept it, but both myself and my family will benefit by letting it go... as much as it hurts for a bit.

The 3rz us had to beat though!!

@@TorqHub Very true, very fast in the Hoff’s Corolla. 😳

It's got a 383 holden v8 lump to go I'm mate! We'll leave the rb30 for another build. They're are so cool though

We will try to get another video on it sometime soon. The car has been on the dyno showing 600hp on low boost (1.7bar) with new engine combo, so initial testing is showing promise. A shaft speed sensor on the high pressure turbo is needed before feeding it more boost, along with a few other mods on the wish list. Keep an eye out. We'll see what we can do.

@@TorqHub I'm looking forward

Negligent discharge of rounds from a gun that costs $2000 vs some back block pumpies in a car worth $80,000 They are not the same . Yes I’m fully aware of consequences; however , what is the primary function of a weapon vs the primary function of a vehicle . I don’t think you realise just how easy it is to have a car taken away … and it can happen without ever leaving your driveway. Call up the hoon hotline , give them a cars number plate…. Say they were doing skids/driving recklessly/ making excessive noise and bam 💥 you get a visit from the 5 0 with a tow truck in tow …. It literally is that easy.

@@beardbuilds5140 bud you clearly have no idea how the hoon laws work and it really shows. Also if you're hooning in the streets with a 80k built car and get caught that's your fault, people can't just call up and report any car but if it's investigated and there is solid evidence (e.g camera's on the street) and they can match your vehicle well than that's your fault. You missed the main point entirely and that your actions have consequences, wanna hoon? Do it on a backstreet or outside of town not on the main streets............... And I'm all for hooning just do it smart, you could get away with it 15 year ago but not today because everything has a camera, just look at how many fines come from phone cameras monitoring (not the camera on the phone lmao incase a non Australian reads this) Wanna conceal your car? Buy magnetic fender protectors like they use on 4x4 and paint them (or a long roll of magnetic sheet) easy to peel off once you're home.

@@user-it4nu7im1v Ok champ , had my car impounded whilst I was at sea from apparently doing Bluetooth skids in it while the car was in cairns and I was of the northern tip of Australia with the ONLY FUCKING KEYS TO IT IN MY DESK DRAW ….. don’t fucking tell me I have zero idea how it works 🤦🏼‍♂️ My car never left a secure military car park the entire time yet the cops had video of my car doing skids and three reports from the public. Yet the only time it left the car park was on a police issued flat bed …. And I had the three weeks of security footage to prove it and still had to go to FKN court to prove my innocence Fucking tell me I don’t know how it works …….

@@beardbuilds5140 maybe you shouldn't commit type 1 offenses while you work a job that require you to go away. They can impound your car off hoon laws for simply having a built up of rubber under your wheel arches because they have classified that as conclusive evidence of recent burnout even if it was from weeks ago. You have clearly done something to give them authority to do it even if the charges were dropped so reflect on that, wanna know how I know? Because you're so angry and haven't talked about being compensated, if you were really done wrong by you would of been given a pretty decent payout. Weird you think it takes 3 reports for your car to get flagged, only takes one and as soon as police car equipped with ANPR will be required to pull you over to investigate, chances were cops went on base and their ANPR picked up your car and they had a legal right to impound it until end of court case. Now I was a Cairns local for 25+ years until last year and know how many hoons there are that go to DFO and then hoon out to Bunnings in Smithfield and then the Kuranda range and not once have I had my car's impounded.

@@user-it4nu7im1v you missed the point here champion I didn’t do a fucking thing wrong , not even weeks prior and my car was impounded for doing burnouts whilst I was not even in the state 🤦🏼‍♂️ No I hadn’t done anything that warranted any kind of punishment, if you call legally racing my car up the range at spring mount 🤦🏼‍♂️

Never too late to get a voicemail in mate. The message bank is open 24/7 🤙🏻 Look forward to hearing the story of what happens next! Yeah the internet is full of askholes. Give them the perfect answer but if it wasn't what they wanted to hear you just get dismissed... ah well, can lead a horse to water

@@TorqHubShould mention, I’m get a couple of quotes on a new front door. Current one needs to be bigger. I’m using the garage to leave the house. There’s enough room through there.

Everyone will have varying levels of success with vt dizzy. We've seen the std chopper wheel in a vt dizzy give a dirty rpm trace in the high 6.5-7k range when running sequential ign. Once again. Take that with a grain of salt. You may be fine, you may have dramas, it's good to know there's some shelf options available to you if you so need.

@@TorqHub good advice. Thanks (I'll try to keep an eye out for it on the dragstrip data logs)

I'm sure it has a market but it makes little sense to drag the technology that far backwards unless it's for class racing.

Haha yeah I'm picking up what you're putting down. They were just regular auto parts store 'acorn wheel nuts' mate. But they can come in slightly different lengths, so you might need to measure to make sure they suit your wheel studs

@@TorqHub ah yep cheers man yeah I’ve put the ssvs on my vz sv8 I’m just paranoid that because the centres are honed there’s a little play that I’m having to rely a shit tonne on the correct nuts to keep the wheel centered, wasn’t sure if suppose to put like a hub ring or something on there so just wiinging it haha also sorry to be a pain but did you have to roll your guards to lower it with running the ssvs ?

Guards were rolled long before the SSVs went one so couldn't tell you how they fit without rolled guards. But when in doubt, roll em out
