9.2 Litre IROC-Z CAMARO With $4500 BILLET Carburettors The Skid Factory 2023-06-07 | Matt from Rogan Industries is a regular on the show when highly skilled fabrication work is required. He has been involved in multiple projects fabricating rear axles and doing sheet metal alterations for us. His Father Dave has also been on the show helping us split a converter, clean it and reweld it. Dave is a retired machinist and pro stock racer and him and Matt are Drag Racers to the core. So what sort of weekend car would they have to cruise in? A 9.2 litre 1000hp naturally aspirated 1986 IROC-Z Camaro is the answer.Dave bought the Camaro completely stock in 1987 with very low mileage and it has evolved over 35 years into what you see here today. A true Father/Son project and testament to Matt and Daves Skills.Checkout some of Matt's work! facebook.com/p/Rogan-Industries-100064763078038instagram.com/roganindustries/?hl=enLike this car?

How To Turbo Your Toyota 1HZ on a Budget! The Skid Factory 2023-05-30 | Do you own a 1HZ powered 70, 80 or 100 series Toyota Landcruiser and you're thinking about Turbocharging the engine? The smart way is to buy a 1HZ Turbo Kit and bolt it on at home but what if you've got a Subaru Turbo laying around in the shed? Today on The Skid Factory we show you how to turbo your 1HZ and include the important tasks like welding a drain into the sump, replacing the big end bearings and where to get oil pressure for the oil feed! Whilst we completed this job on a "Budget" its possible to do it cheaper by recycling second hand parts or using different materials, If you've got anything to add please comment below and add your opinion! If you've got a mate that needs to turbo his Land Cruiser please share this video with them! Thanks to Chris at Evolution Tuning for the runs on the dyno!

2JZ COMMODORE EP8 - MotorSport Wiring Loom What Is MILSPEC? The Skid Factory 2023-05-17 | Utilising sensors to obtain maximum data for your drag car is beneficial when it comes to making changes at the track. Wiring Pressure, Temperature and position sensors can be daunting and time consuming so we got some help from the crew at Whiteys Wiring to show us how a Motorsport grade wiring loom is made and what the key differences are between Club level and Pro level wiring. The boys knock out the engine and transmission wiring in teflon coated TXL wire leading to a pair of Deutsch bulkhead connectors ready for us to finish the job inside the car.Once the boys are don we then fit up the remaining sensors required for Kevin's track data in preparation for the rest of the @haltech Nexus R5 wiring to be done.

Tuning a Turbo 1GZFE Toyota V12. The Skid Factory 2023-04-26 | Is Toyota's 1GZ-FE V12 a good engine? Can the Rods handle Boost? We've got Nathan's 1978 SWB 40 Series LandCruiser on the dyno at Knight Family Motorsport to tune the newly Wired Haltech Elite 2500 and decide how much power We think is suitable for a Turbocharged Stock Unopened engine.We had already had a false start the week before due to some transfer case issues but with that all sorted we are ready to go.The tuning process on a stock bottom end engine with known strength issues is a little different to a built engine and Kye from KFM talks us through how to get the most power without risking rod breakage.Last episode we Uprgraded the ECU with a @haltech Elite 2500 and added a few goodies from Go Fast Bits.

Thinking of Cleaning Your Converter at Home? WATCH THIS FIRST! The Skid Factory 2023-03-16 | On this episode of The Skid Factory we tackle the daunting task of splitting, cleaning and rewelding a torque converter. As with many things related to Automatic Transmissions, the converter and it's construction are considered somewhat voodoo and not to be touched. We dive in the deep end in an attempt to both educate ourselves and demystify the process but find out along the way that it is a very time consuming and finicky job and, whilst doable with our skills and equipment, is still probably more practical to have a pro do it, or just buy a bolt together.Thanks to our mate Dave for his legendary skills and advice, Be like Dave, Help out your mates.A like & A Share goes a long way!

Modifying an Aussie Icon! Would Brocky Approve? 🇦🇺 HDT VL Calais Sport Ep 2. The Skid Factory 2023-03-01 | On this episode of The Skid Factory we set about modernising an iconic 1980's HDT VL Calais by adding a modern engine management system. We explain in depth what's required to successfully convert a carburettored engine to modern engine management from fuel system to ignition right down to wiring needs and initial startup.The ancient Quadrajet Carburettor is being replaced by multi-port fuel injection and an electronic throttle body from an LSA. The distributor is also swapped out for a VT Commodore crank angle sensor so the Haltech Elite 2500 ECU can have full control over the engine.Are you a HDT fan? Do you think we are improving the car or ruining a classic? What would Brocky do?

Did This Box of Rocks RUIN HDT? Peter Brock VL Calais Sport The Skid Factory 2023-02-21 | Today On The Skid Factory We're checking out Shayne's Peter Brock VL Calais Sport by HDT and talk about the history of the car and the controversy surrounding the Energy Polarizer. The Holden Dealer Team (HDT) was a racing team in Australia that competed in touring car racing during the 1970s and 1980s.In the mid 80s, HDT became embroiled in controversy over a device called the "Energy Polarizer," which was claimed to improve the performance of HDT cars by aligning and “Polarizing” molecules.There was no scientific evidence to support these claims and executives at Holden rejected it as a legitimate performance product. Holden soon after severed ties with HDT. Brocks legacy is a decade of tuned Commodores that are now valuable collectorCars and Shayne’s VL Calais is a prime example.

A wet motorbike clutch is the ideal solution and to get that we need a bike engine to go with it.

Torsen LSD Diff Install JZS171 Toyota Crown The Skid Factory 2023-01-25 | In this episode of The Skid Factory we check out the latest upgrades to the JZS171 Crown Wagon and address one of the biggest problems with the platform.Al sold the car to his mate Brad after the exhaust, intercooler and ecu upgrades and since then Brad has had a bunch more work done at Golebys including a highmount turbo, head studs and gasket. It makes good power but getting it to the ground is now an issue with the factory open centre differential.The Internet told us that a diff from a Subaru BRZ / Toyota 86 will "Bolt in" so we sourced one from the local Subaru wrecking yard.The G series diff from the BRZ / 86 is a Torsen Limited Slip Differential and supposedly will bolt into not only the JZS platform but also the XE10 Chassis and possibly others! The "G series" Crown wheel and pinion can be swapped from vehicles like the MX83 Cressida MA70 supra and some models of the Toyota Hilux to change gear ratios but this isn't a simple swap. If you've done this before let us know in the comments to share some knowledge!Need some upgrades for your JZS171? find them here! https://golebysparts.auShoutout to Dave from @DragVideosAustralia for the Thumbnail picture, Find pictures of events and more here: https://www.dragphotos.com.auCheckout Dave's Youtube Channel too! youtube.com/@UCmMzOccFGEypSZg99JW_xpQ Want to listen to a good podcast?

10 Second Bluebird, BIG TURBO & 3.5 Stainless Steel Exhaust The Skid Factory 2023-01-04 | Today on The Skid Factory We're swapping out the GTX3584RS on Timmy's Turbo VQ35DE Datsun Bluebird for a larger G40 turbo.To complement the bigger turbo we're also fitting a GFB EX44 Wastegate and fabricating a 4" into 3.5" Stainless Steel TIG welded Exhaust system. Timmy has featured on the show many times helping us out with wiring and showing off his Datsun products from One Six Industries. He has a couple of cool Dattos and since we were doing some work on this one for him we thought we'd show it off before getting stuck into the job.The Current setup consists of a VQ35 bottom end from a Nissan Elgrand with Wiseco Pistons and Eagle Conrods mated to VQ30 Cylinder Heads with HKS MLS Gaskets, ARP L19 Head studs and VQ35 Kelford Camshafts and Valve Springs. Previously Timmy had fitted a GT3582 (Too small) followed by an BW-S362 (A bit lazy) and it currently has a GTX3584RS (Turbine to restrictive) Timmy's always looking for more and ever-evolving vehicle hence why we're changing out the turbo for a larger option and upsizing the exhaust to go with it.Get your GFB Goodies here: https://gfb.com.auRaceworks Catch cans and Fittings found here: https://raceworks.com.auA like & A Share goes a long way!
