Amen brother
…with a Barra engine!😈🤣
Which part is built?
Thanks for the review Ross, it was an absolute pleasure! 🔥
Bro your a legend and was a blast to catch up that day🤘🔥
mint kinetic fgx Triibz
@@Grechieman thanks brother 🙏
@@imTriiBz How the hell do you drive this thing without holding for dear life? Your car is sick!
@@MartinJones123 500hp/600hp is definitely a hand full on the street but try 1400hp in a solid axle rear end eb Fairmont that’s a farking monster of ride
Nice Ross !!!!! Gotta love the Barra. Australia and New Zealand are lucky to receive theses engines.
We are so lucky to have these beauty’s
This XR6T has the factory "Mexico" pack and made in collaboration with the "Mexican Hoon Cartel"
I'm excited and it looks like you're in Melbourne too!
Melbourne aka Mexico 🇲🇽 🤣
@@RossReviewsau Haha... This XR6T is nuts and the powerslides looked awesome on camera!
Epic mate. .the tyres were doing 120 at two and half seconds but the car was only doing 65
🤣 what a rig eh
it managed to reach 150
Yeah brahhh so epiccccc sooo cool
You inspired me to get a Barra turbo too. Took delivery of my FG a few weeks ago bloody love it! Now to mod it!
Good shit bro! Once you open them up! Man you won’t regret it
What power figure you going for man?
No idea. Will see how much I can get from the factory turbo first and go from there.
Can’t believe the power of that FGX. Another great review Ross.
It’s a monster but I got a bigger power FGX on the way 😉
What a weapon!! Big Ross you would have had a great day filming this one 👌🏼🤘🏼
It was a crazy day for sure
keen for this one! always loved this car
It’s a beast car
I just bought a stock one in the same colour for 35k. Love it, only mods are centre muffler delete and side air and battery relo
Very nice!
I just bought a Sprint
@jimclarke1108 awesome. 6 or 8 and how much that set you back?
@@Johnopro69 40k,the seller had to leave Aust.🤑
@@Johnopro69 XR6
How can you not love the looks of an FGX?
I mean it just looks like a Mondeo so it's quite easily to not like it. Upsetting this is where Ford Australia ended. That's why a lot of people were upset because it isn't how the Falcon should of ended... Coping a Mondeo
Fgx is nice. Just prefer the fg shape..
The only thing it resembles of a Mondeo is the shape of the grille! Nothing else! you could say the same shape as a Mustang, Focus & Fusion grille aswell, but the rest of the car has its own look. I dont know how you could mistaken it for a Mondeo???
@@RetroTekGuyAU oh well, VF looks like a chev malibu so it could have been worse
@@orion5813 well I hate Holden's so yeah 😅
FGX cops alot of flak for its looks but I reckon they look grouse. Wicked review mate, gotta love a barra 🚗💨
Thanks bro! I don’t mind the looks.. this one especially 👌
From 0-65 my late 2009 Ford falcon bf mk 3 station wagon goes really fast and quick like a sports car it was a ex Victoria police transport vehicle at the start of its life
very nice mate! getting the power down
Hi Ross I'm a Ford guy. I love Ford I would love to have the FG,X your driving. It's a sexy car. Keep up the good work from Dave.
Thanks brother love a good falcon
Sooooooo looking forward to the 1st Melbourne review. Looking forward to more Melbourne reviews and the white Ford NL Fairlane and the Modified Grey Audi RS3’ when is the Fairlane and RS3 coming? Looking forward to future reviews.
To Ross Reviews
From Jordan’s car reviews
RS3 is out this weekend 👍
This one’s gonna be mint
She goes hard
Keep up the great vids Ross! Your videos are always top quality. 👌🏼👌🏼
Thanks brother more to come
When the speedo becomes the rev guage ✌🏼
That’s when you know it’s a good review 🤣
The last Falcon sure didn't disappoint!
Falcons never disappoint
wicked spot for the shot... the container stacks in the background look awesome :)
Thanks bro 😎
Jesus I thought I was doing well with 453rwkw. What a weapon 🏎️
It’s a rocket bro

gotta love the Barra Potentioal eh!

I’m a proud owner of a 2011 Fg xr6 and even they have readily available power for a naturally aspirated six #BARRA POWER
Long live the Barra
Hi Ross, great review. I especially love the interior, wish that Ford released this sort of stuff. The rims are super cool.
glad you enjoyed this one mario! was a killer car
Well done, mate! Good stuff! 👍
What a beast eh
Ik the block that owns it personally and he's a mad guy
He’s a crazy one 🤣
I only have an older BA XR6T but fuck yeah! Barra the world
Up the Barra
I think I need a screamer now
Thanks mate
🤣 I’m already getting the typhoon quotes up!
my dad has one but no turbo but manual and even with not turbo it goes
They definitely do go 👍
I'm pretty sure that fragrance tree hanging off the rear-view mirror adds an extra 5kw.
🤣 an easy 5rwkw eh
@@RossReviewsau For sure!
Holy smokes Robin, to the sideways mobile. Well done mate 👏🏼 nice location for the review 👍🏼
Not a bad spot the old docks of Mexico
@@RossReviewsau on Fishermen's Bend, that's where Holden used to be, plus I went to TAFE in the same building before Boeing moved in. Yes, aerospace engineering!
Dude I watch the owner on tiktok, I seen the plate and was like wait a minute 😂
Yeh I’ve been following him for a while eh
@@RossReviewsau his car is an absolute beast, probably my favourite fgx out there
Good to see dual rear exhausts on a XR6
Definitely looks better eh
That’s Melbourne for ya 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it
It definitely is 🤣🤣🤣
ayee Triibs 💯
He’s a mad dog
@@RossReviewsau he is indeed 🤣💯
Ross try the 0-100 with traction control on in these high power barras. the traction control is actually pretty good at bringing things back in line without cutting too much power. You'd at least make it to 100 :P
Traction control is useless with this power it’ll just keep cutting in and out like no tomorrow not to mention the zf will short shift when traction control kicks in and out
@@astr1x828 yep but I don't think spinning the wheels the whole time is any better
Wait you're in Melbourne now?! Whens the meetup!
And duude, I've been following triibz and seen him on the roads occasionally too, car is soooo good
I’m back in Perth now but I was there briefly filming up a storm 📸🤘🇦🇺
@@RossReviewsau Dang, well hopefully someday you’ll host a Melb meetup! 💙
Oh man that’s good 🥵🇦🇺
🔥🔥🔥
A Sabre-tooth in sheep's clothing? Great review. I'm takin' to the FGx front end more these days. Cheers.
glad you enjoyed it bro!
Coode rd / appleton dock rd :) ? nice car mate , and they went very well even without mods , and probably the best model falcon ever made in Australia , and then Ford Australia closed up shop sadly.
It grinds my gears to hear politicians bragging they are going to do something to bring back our manufacturing ....... when the dipsticks where absolutely instrumental in destroying it in the first place.
Very sad they are gone eh… 🥲 I wish they had kept making these beasts
Hey Johnny mate,I must admit I've never been too keen on the look of the newer model,but I like this one so I'm coming around lol,what's there not to like it's a Barra Beast with all the mods it kicks ass so of course I love it man,another top review great work buddy.
any well done barra is always a win :)
What a weapon
shes a rocket
Banger vid 🔥
Cheers mate
Awesome vid man
Thanks bro
That stock ZF 👌
Insane how it’s stock!
hey ross would be really cool if youd interview the people about their car if it has a cool story, doesnt need to be face to face interview but maybe a voiceover ontop of some clips of the car
That would be a cool thing for modified reviews
Should come drive my 530rwkw Fg turbo manual Ute.
Mate would love that😅 send me a pm on fb or Instagram
There is a balancing act with usable power in a rear wheel drive car once you go to far its fun to drive but not quick, and being quick is the reason to make more power no point having huge power which you cant use, when many standard cars will beat you in a drag race.
The owner likes to spin tires so that’s why 😅 but yes definitely hard to find a balance with this level of power
Best review yet
Cheers bro more to cone
Beautiful Car, great Colour would love one like that. Oh for the Lotto life ...
It’s a killer car
Hey man that is one wicked bit of gear. But how dose he drive it to it's full potential? Good Stuff..
He doesn’t really 🤣 it’s built more to shred tires
@@RossReviewsau
Yes it would certainly do that.
It's a Highway roll racing King.💯
I'm a Holden guy but man those Barras r the bees knees
Glad you can appreciate both🔥🇦🇺
@@RossReviewsau actually mate, I'd rather buy a Falcon there more reliable
do a ls turbo review😈
whos got one!!! message me
I own an fgx turbo Ute. It's last month of production too. I didn't really like the rear of the sedan compared to the fg. The Ute's rear is the same as the fg.
i dont mind the FGX still a good looker i think
Need to do 100-200 on the dragy with these powerful cars to get a decent base to compare
Should start a results table similar to top gear use to do with lap times but for 100-200 times for modified street cars 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I wish I had the place to do that!
How is SUNROOF a mod? Did it come stock or installed after?
It’s a mod I think aftermarket
@@RossReviewsau 🤘
Fg/fgx didnt come with them
i already follow the owner i love his videos
He’s a legend 🤘
whats the tire width at the back? no traction at all when racing from a standstill?
Just bad tires in general when we filmed this 🤣 even still it breaks out the owner says with new rubber
Heyy Matheus Barbosa
Nice video bro
Keep it up
Thank you, I will
What speed do you reckon this would get reliable traction? Barra owners want to chime in at what rwkw do these start getting slower to 100?ie what rwkw is the sweet spot for a quick road car?
I’d say about 390-400rwkw depending on tires… anymore and they seem to start just slowing down due to traction loss 😅
I have 366rwkw and it’s hard to put down , best bet is wider rims , good quality tyre and take off in 2nd gear
@@lloydchristmas2326 what’s your best (and most consistent) 0-100 with that combo?
@@MrTroytroy never tried to be honest I just use the car for powercruise , roll racing and being a hoon and it does that well , if you want a quick street car that can put down an impressive 0-100 I don’t think a Barra is a good start , I’d look at a golf R ,rs3 etc
what are those 2 fart like noises at 2:00? Mine only makes that torque reduction sound at WOT. This sounds like slight throttle.
was just changing gears at lower rpm i think mate
Hey mate. Where’s the jumper from? Would love to grab one they look mint
They are in the description under new merch! You Can buy one 🇦🇺👌
Fun and more 🤩
Was good eh
As much as I love Falcons, I saw 2 FG - X's try to do the quarter mile at the last all Fords day at Willowbank. Both failed. Soft crappy parts let them down, while an old XD ute ran consecutive 9 second passes and could have done them all day..... all the mighty AU's that did the quarter, finished, though not in mind blowing times, but at least they made it. As I said, I love Falcons, but after the AU, they started to put too many weak parts in them, which let them down so much - but always stronger than every bogandore.
You know it’s making like 700hp at the motor through the stock transmission no other falcon AU or XD could ever do that transmission would be left on the floor
Comes with the territory. You tune cars and they get less reliable. Its not the manufacturers fault they didnt build cars to handle 600+ HP stock.
Does it still have stock tailshaft?
think so
4:57 made me laugh 🤣😅
Aussie power
long live the barra
What a beast
Absolute monster 👹
Crazy mate
Industrial Area after hours = Aussie skid pan training ground
Amen brother 😂 keep it smart and off the main streets
Beyond the cosmetic looks, how much different is there between an fg and an fgx? genuinely curious. Seems to me most of the difference is with the ICC.
not a whole lot from my knowledge eh
@@RossReviewsau yeah, ive currently got an fg, but I'm thinking for my next car i'll get a VF.
Weird seeing you off the b road back home
I love that B road is n Perth
Which workshop has modified this vehicle? Thank's.
I did mention it in the video (can’t remember tho)
@@RossReviewsau Seres Engineering 😉
good numbers from that beara
Bloody epic numbers from a stock box
You should buy my XR6 Turbo FGX? I need to downgrade for a wedding. Any takers?
What’s next on the Melbourne reviews list? 😎
Lots coming up some sneak peaks on my TikTok
Keen for g6egoats car review soon!!!
Fresh G6ET eh
@@RossReviewsau oooh yeah she’s up there for my fav falc
Churr ma bro 🤙
Not an AU but still the goods eh my bro
Why do I always see you saying "Churr ma bro?"
What does it even mean?
@@MartinJones123 it means that's awesome bro in kiwi or new Zealand G
@@whatsgoodie5586 Oh right... Is Jono half Kiwi half Canadian?
Yeah only the force models had the red leather, and t series au had red, blue and aubergine. Shame as thats one of the best things holden did imo was the nicer and variety of interior colours.
more leather options would have been appreciated eh
Hey Ross there so good ay. I’ve got that motor in a VS commodore we just finished making 550kw that weighs in at 1520kg so it’s good fun mate. Maybe you can do a review in mine sometime 👍
HOLY HELL THATS SOUNDS EPIC.. would love to see that mate
😳 What the?? What a sick frankenstein build, you guys absolutely gotta hook up and do a video review of this!!
I’m surprised this hasn’t leaned out giving it a hard time on low fuel 😂😂
I was pretty surprised too 😅
Sounds like a Holden grey chugging along. I like a nice sound and this doesn't deliver. I probably wouldn't care once I try my first Barra turbo.
You need to try one bro! You’ll love it
Brembo's would top it off
True
You should check out adam lzs barra mustang, he somehow managed to make a barra sound good
It also makes about double the power
Yeah that one sounds crazy
This still sounds good tho.. but yeh not V8 or rotary level
Barra's sound good in my opinion...
@@MartinJones123 I agree especially with a 6 boost manifold
Not blurring their number plates. Might see this on the auction when the police show up to get it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What are you talking about? They are in Mexico from what i can see
Owner was cool with it and if they really want to catch you they will.. we took it of the main streets at least..
All it takes is a couple hundred pesos and the cops are sweet 🤙
This car has terrorised my dog for years ! I’ve had enough !
? lol🐕
Do in -gear times eg 60-110kph to get a truer understanding of power..0-100kph hard these days.
would be good but honestly even then it would still spin this car has to be over 100 before you can safely get traction with boost hitting
Aurion vs Mitsubishi 380, go on we know you want to. 😏
i would love to if i could find the cars
FG Barras never sound great because their design and power curve is tuned for RPM so much lower than a comparitively "high" RPM engine. They are a torque engine not a high rev engine. They were designed for towing, cruise comfort and power to get you out of unexpected trouble at low rpm - the common phrase being "taxi engine". We're so used to "high rev, screaming its tits off, F1-like" sound relating to "high power" that we forget that power comes in all forms... Different horses for different courses!
great way to explain it!
I dont know 7k rpm is pretty screaming these sing if your confident enough. 🤣
They all sound different to each other & they sure as hell all sound amazing , Idk if u have ever been in an fg thats over 400rwkw but let me tell you it aint no low rpm feeling or sound bud they fucking scream espicially with an external gate
Ford Powa!
BARRA THE WORLD!
These cars on street tyres is like going ice skating.For me not fun and undrivable
these tires were average.. but idk sometimes its more fun if a car can scare you.. could just be me tho
Sick car man but you should of atleast blocked out the number plate just saying
Owner was happy to flex them😅
@@RossReviewsau hope nothing comes of it had mates get picked on from videos on socials
I reckon the Ecoboost 4 cylinder versions would be the ones to invest in due to their rarity and mystique. They have some grunt despite the cylinder count.
i reckon you're delusional
im trying to find one to review
I had a mate who used to own a 4cylinder g6 years ago. It was a cool little gimmick but it was no quicker than my bog standard BA Xr6 at the time.
But yeah given how few of them there are it could be worth picking one up just to sit on it for the future. I haven’t looked but I can’t imagine they’d be all that pricey at the moment either.
Where’s the build details on this
Description
Head rests are backwards 😂
0-100km was pretty poor I must admit. Could have reached 100km, just don't hit it as hard from the start.
Man watch it again I barely hit 3k n she was sideways
@@RossReviewsau I did. I just want to drive it.....😜😜😜
Drag slicks
Needed 😂
I hate that fart sound they make in-between gear changes
each to their own

Do the owner a favor and blur the plates man!
He didn’t want me too.. if they want we take them off
@@RossReviewsau Fair enough man if it's at the owners discretion. Don't get me wrong man I love your videos
even better you take time to reply to your viewers
