- The Aussie Ford Barra six is continually reaching new heights in performance. Nem’s FPV F6 street car recently became the first FG Falcon to run into the 7-second zone. The car still retains an IRS rear end and surprisingly many factory stock engine internal parts. We caught up with Michael from QuickBitz for an inside view on what it took to achieve this impressive milestone.

Does this mean when you say 2k barra can run 8's and you have that bloke laughing straight afterwards you won't be playing that anymore?
I think you owe that toothless, wheezing Mexican at least 2k by now.
We will play that forever 😆
Didn't Dion from DMP's FG run a 7 first?
Is it legal to run a cage on the street ?
Nice work to all involved. No trash talk, no excuses, no drama. Some of the other shops and car owners should take note. Congrats to Nemz
I agree mate, he doesnt claim to know everything and admits that there were mistakes along the way.
Refreshing for sure. Educational and humble. This would be a race team I’d get involved with.
Biggest surprise here, the maccas ice cream machine actually working.
That was him too...
Hahahhahahahha
This guy is like a mad barra professor, love his energy his the type of guy that would work 18 hours straight before remembering that he hasn't eaten since breakfast, maybe that's why they call him sticks, would love to send him my fg and say all yours do what you have to do.
Michael is one of the best in Melbourne. And not trying to upsell shit that is not needed and putting money where it is needed. Pretty rear these days.
I WOULD TAKE MY FALCON THERE FOR SURE SEEMS LIKE A GENUINE FELLA
He must work-out?
Yeah this guys is very honest not trying to sell you the best of the best to take your money wish there was more shops in Sydney like that
What shops this mate?

*Clip posted 52 minutes ago* and says its a beasty Barra motor... What a great way to wake up on a Sunday morning, and I'm a Holden guy.
@Robert Marks Sorry, relevance?
it blows my mind that you guys are at 400k, i dont know how you guys aren't at or above TRC or 1320 in terms of subs. I find myself watching this channel more than either of those other 2.
Australia, 23 million people
USA 330 million
That’s why
They'd need one of those clickbait thumbnails.. 2 0 0 0 H P!
Americans struggle with stuff that doesn't have pushrods.
@@bigcncguy So? Im an American. Is fullboost supposed to be restricted to australians only or? Lol
@@mark7457 lmao that is very true! I hate the click bait bs.
Absolute legit street 7 sec car. Great achievement to all involved. Aussie 6cyl ingenuity is unparalleled
Not every state allows a cage? I think most states dont, so hard to call it a streeter
Top/brilliant bloke.
Top/brilliant car.
Top/brilliant Aussie technology and engineering.
When this video lands in the US consciousness, you are going to see something big happen.
As an American I'm in love with this car.
They are a great vehicle. They really stuffed up when they decided to not sell them in the US.
I've always said to mates that like you guys did with the GTR's I reckon these things will be taken over to the states when the age is right for your import /registration rules...
@@malsmith2012 they'd be super expensive and getting parts,,,time.
@@benwalker4660 not really when you see their dollar value plus the fact the amount of car guys over there that have money, real wealth, they'll snap them up.. Plus you can get parts in a few days..
@@malsmith2012 on the proviso 'don't crash or smash them' as parts for F6 specific are hard to come by . Although as a Sunday car in america it would attract allot of looks- not in Ford America price list. Its hard finding stock BF FG genuine parts and FPV specific is even harder. 1000 bucks for a traction control module just as a example- and rare...you won't get them in a few days maybe a month. Ford had to look for them and old stock needs finding...3rd oarty retailers are good and bad...
I love how he's used the stock crank, girdle, valves to make this power using so much OEM Ford Australia parts. Ozzie power! Love it Bonza!
Probably the most informative interview of a tuner in relation to the barra/falcon I've seen! The information just kept coming, no bull just facts! Great work!
"Cash. Cash is king."
Yeah this guy is on top of it. Mad dog.
God damn these Barra's don't need much mods to make them a certified weapon 😍
3k 7 sec barra
Ha, yep was thinking Sloppy when Kal was talking about why are they upgrading stuff that isn't a problem.
And the body isn't a feather weight 4,000lb.
New meme right there...
Impressive power for a unported head , factory crank & block well done
Stock turbo is usually the restiction in turbo cars.
Sticks reminds me of Frank from Dandy.. There's a great sense of honesty and integrity about him, you just know he'd be the guy to treat you, your car and your money with respect and honesty.. Genuine to a fault.. Fantastic job Sticks if I was in Melbourne I know where I'd be going for my performance work.. 👌👍
Frank's Barra Compound Turbo....
This blokes a master of his craft
Great to see local businesses here in Oz. Love this guys knowledge & enthusiasm. Ford's AU IRS is still the best in my opinion. Being an older driver, I've always preferred V8's for torque & sound. I still prefer V8s sound but the performance of these 6's cannot be denied.
I agree, I had an au 3 vct xr6 with the a arm rear suspension. I now have an fgx turbo and I strongly believe that the au handled way better hands down
That’s insane Aussie workmanship.. keep up the awesome work
An everyday driver that can run sevens and still retains the stock interior that's amazing
This guy was really good, very knowledgeable and explained everything great, well done to him and his team on the F6
Proper set of wheels. Tesco shopping and baby seat. Really good problem solving, learning from time. Well done folk. Nice.
man your guys are the most real in the WORLD!!!!!
REAL PEOPLE!!!!
Love STIX such a top bloke!!! Best tuning shop around possibly the country! Great video guys the dirty moustache is classic
What shop is it?
@@POLITICALYCORRECTify Quickbits
I can hear this guy talk all day.
Very knowledgeable man.
Michael from Quickbitz is clearly passionate about his work and knows hit sh*t
Best full boost video I've ever watched! Hell best car video total.
7 second street car on Ford Falcon Barra it just Beautiful Bloody Killer mate wow I'm Very happy and Proud Ford Falcon FAM here in Auckland
To get a 7 second pass pulling that ridiculously heavy car is insane, take 300-400kg of it would definitely be in the 6’s
@Paul Cuckastein was enjoying reading the comment section till I reached yours, your clueless wokey fork
Best Ford for the street ever, I LOVE it! Go off man
Making big power with stock head deserves respect
This guy is awesome. I can't believe how good this car is.
Very knowledgeable, great advice. The car speaks for itself record holding and record breaking.
Sticks seems like a nice bloke very natural persona and grounded. Huge respect!!
What a bloody cool guy. He really makes sense.
These videos & Barra engine will be the reason I visit Australia!
Nice guy and very clever, also good to hear him plug the mighty tb48 Nissan. Go to UAE to get an eye full of horsepower.
Hopefully there are Barra's around for many years to come.
Always sweet to hear a clevo cruise past these days.
Great video, regards Steve.
These Ford Barra engines are so impressive. I’m currently looking for an old 80’s Toyota Corolla shell to engine swap and turn into a drag car for a weekend hobby. I’m turning 34 and my partying days are well behind me, time for a hobby to keep me busy lol. The engine swaps I’m considering are the Barra, Rotary engine or 2JZ. My father use to drag race rotary engines. The amount of power they’d be able to put down with those tiny little engines was absolutely preposterous 😂
My favorite thing and on my birthday too. Thanks guys.
Everyone in the tuning industry should revel in this. It should give them inspiration to harder and higher.
I think you dropped a word. Get.😉
A Mentor, what a engine build prescription, hope to get the same number on my R32 Barra!!
this will smash any exotic dream car by far.
Great vid well done to all involved amazing what Barra’s can do when built correctly and have the right power management 🙌 always loved this car great job nemz👌
Love the mo stix 😉
Wow! This is science, very good job. Nice video, enjoyed it very much, thanks
I love seeing it give the other cars a head start and still catch them hahaha
I've watched this video probably 20 times start to finish. So much great info and great presenters too. Would love more build videos with sticks 😍
Fantastic quickbitz!
fastest full street car 4cyl in the world (Silvia s15 7.42s 1/4 mile) and great work in this car.
What is impressive is the size of the car family sedan.
The guy talking about this car is awesome👍
This was a great video. No more needs to be said. Thanks guys
Great video again boys and he seemed really honest about the car great to see
wow i love the barra's excelent interview well done
Calling it a cab is a compliment, basically saying it will still be going at 800,000km
Love those F P V's!!Too bad we didn't get them here in the States!! Anyway, great video!!👍👍🤟🤟🇺🇸🇺🇸
These engines are amazing. p.s. love that honeycomb hood underside.
Sheesh, this Guy makes this Cars technology interesting and easy to understand
Awesome vid. Would love to see more of quick bits stuff
Man is there anything sticks doesn't know?? what a dude
Ford is amazing, the 4.6 Teksid is another work of art that is capable of huge numbers with factory block, heads and crank. I wish we had the Barra in the states, l have a 72 Torino with a strait six that is begging for a Barra. I'm broke, it will never happen.
Why can we not import one of these BARRA motors to U.S.?
Awesome video guys, love seeing the ingenuity of only using what is necessary to really get the most of things whilst keeping it so street spec. I really rate this, and I'm an LS lover :P
My god the barra is a legend.
True 7 secound street car , well done to all involved
Take notes Haltech, inputs from dash are broadcast to ecu via can! Need this for the elite series ecu!
$3500 dash vs $1300 dash
haltech = apple
@@dragpix shots fired lol
@@DATONALKY I mean it in the nicest possible way lol
Links better
What an amazing achievement. Love this.
I like this guys thinking, KISS and gets great results cool build, Holden guy loving the mighty BARRA cheers from NSW
Great video! Interesting tech, shop talk and drive to Mecca's 😃
hopefully 2k barra guy was entertained, RIP Spanish comedian Juan Joya Borja, whose infectious laughter brought him global fame, has passed away aged 65.
Fark!!! beers up 🍻
We got a new king anyways.. see above comment!
This guys an absolute weapon, seen a heap of cars go to his shop from other shops and go much quicker
Whats his shop named?
@@russellcameron9035 Quickbitz
Fkn 👌🏻. I think I need one of those 2k Barra stickers for my shitbox!
I'm looking forward to seeing your new motor on the dyno
Same here dude
The barra breadbox millsi
love it .......an Aussie cab on the same level as an American twin turbo Mustang
Good video , Good talk , and lots of info .... thank you .
These where a good car even when they where stock , here i am in 2023 ..... nearly 2024 , ford/holden/toyota manufacturing all been gone from australia for some years now ..... very sad indeed .
Not to mention many other spin off company's from the motor industry also gone by the wayside .
The most redeeming feature about this mod is that no headlight was sacrificed for air intake.
Blokes a legend
That is very nasty!! In a good way! I would love to do a Barra swap in my 71 chevelle lol that would definitely hurt alot of feelings lol lmao
Do it, there pretty cheap
You would definitely tick off the Chevy purists.. But then again they've been putting garbage under the hood of great ford cars for years..
Go for it Man
As impressive as the FG falcon is (pure excellence from everyone involved), and the level of intelligence possessed by sticks... its very difficult to take my eyes away from the polished concrete done by grindworks!! #evilgq
Honey, I put a new exhaust on the Falcon, Happy Mother's day! 😂
Outstanding build
Quickbitz what an amazing workshop and tuner
Would
Love to know full parts list to complete the picture
Good video lads, well provided info. thank you.
Absolute Weapon 💪🔥
Mad car. Well done all involved. ...... Though. Running 7. And looks like the tyres do scrape on the quater panels. Safe? Can that be retified on the irs ?? (7.27 mins on video.
Bloody awesome love the barra.
Good old Sth Dandy life love it !!!!
I love this video! One of your best!
Such a detailed video great work
Great review.
What I would love to see these guys do is integrate a 4r200 front hub (front planetary being a massive weak point replaces with a billet one piece) with 6r80 internals which effectively turns the gear ratios of the zf into th400 ratios with a 4th gear .63 plus lockup. Such a badass car, love my fg turbo
Awesome video today guys thanks.
Up the bobbins b double at 6:09!!
Who remembers stix’s Corolla back in the early 2000s?
BARRA FOR THE WORLD 🤙🤙🤙
“Barra eats turbo for breakfast” Wicked!
😍👍 from Texas USA.
Is there a place to get a full build list for this car? cheers
What a great build
Mostly stock is bloody brilliant. but how many 7sec passes will it have in it??? Hopefully alot..
He great explain things with tuning
Great video, who's the music from?
Sounds like those intake and exhaust manifolds need to go back into production..
When you run Fueltech you don’t need cam to talk dash with ecu and etc... everything in one ☝️ unit!
The 7 second pass and the lap top, mate its all about weight v's power and the right diff ratios, that F6 does not have a 3.77 or even a stock diff and the same with the 3 speed auto T400, its about ratios and then to put the power down and having the right comb ,so doing a 7:98 v's a 8:01 your not going to know the difference in the car at all, but the lap top will give to figures which then you have to work out what settings were and adjust them to make more speed down the track with in the distance allotted so 1/4mile or 1/8 mile? Again well done proving that stock FORD F6 engine items will go the distance? If you build it, it will go fast. LOL :) Keep up the great work guys.
