- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ม.ค. 2025
- Having competed in the last four Drag Challenge events, Rodney's Holden HQ Ute is a regular to chrome bumper street meets. Unsurprisingly, a turbocharged 370 cubic inch LS sits in the bay, featuring forged internals and a cast iron block. Boost comes from a large 94mm Garrett GTX55 turbocharger with twin turbosmart gates.
We ran into Rodney at Quickbitz where the guys where touching up the tune in preparation to test at Swan Hill.

wow unreal, brand new set up and ran 8.3 out of the box.... will be running 7's in no time!! well done mate.
This thing is absolutely my taste, it’s perfect! Massive fan of cars with that “aged and honest” look about them and then an up to the minute powertrain. Ever since I saw the first Transformers movie I’ve been in love with this style of build
That engine is no drama and all business 👏👏👏👏👏
That sounds mad good job man love the plates too
No lag at all. So freaken nice
What a fucking pearler... love the new use for the headlight space... I've seen it done on other cars, but it almost 'suits' this beastly Belmont! Nice one... peace
Well done rod killer car getting faster and faster
Wow a LS swap! I guess someone has to push the envelope.
I remember a LONG time ago when V8 heads used to pick on turbos. My how things have changed. In all seriousness, that is one beasty Belmont. Nice one!
Finally somebody mentioning how V8 guys used to run their mouth and frown upon turbos
😂 great comment
Sounds like a kitchen blender on the Dyno
Very nice, Throwing down pretty good trap speed too for a big heavy beast.
Love this ute, looks and sounds mean af
Swan Hill = The Ryco sales rep is back at work. 😉
Nice fab work
Considering the power & the leaf spring style suspension & the et, i thought the car tracked very straight on the strip. The handling is impressive.
Wow that some power for a ute
Holy god in a dyno same a chainsaw sound.
Liked
Your morning LS vid to validate your morning chubbies😂
Tuff, ole ute that one.. That plate as well... 😂
I wonder what size Torque converter they are running, the stall speed seems a little is insane, just the way it should be :)
Looks like a bit of wheel spin could be stopping it from getting close to 7s
That will run a 7 when they sort the suspension out
What is the dip/hesitation on the dyno graph around 175KMH?
WARNING ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ BARA fools arriving soon to the comment section WARNING ⚠️
Hahaga
Could only give you 1 like.🤣
Nah probably more so people that are sick of the Barra LS sheep
Could do with a barra swap now you mentioned it
😭the hellcat boys will be here soon don’t worry
Nice
Ugly but beautiful sleeper great stuff guys keep up the hard work
U guys must wake up early
8seconds @ 1100hp....wow no power lost in that car.
Go the Gazzard
I remember looking in This guys engine bay at a car show and he walked over and shut the Bonnet down in my face Rudely and I thought what a dick head
all dem killer wasps get down to the ground very well indeed
Seems low hp for 94 turbo. Overall v. good et for hp.
Tuff as
I always thought this was a cool ute. Haul's arse too. Love cars that you don't have to be all precious about. I owned a Cobalt blue 383 LJ with mint panel and paint (that got stolen in Thomastown) and every time I took it out there would be a new small stone chip or knick in the paint. It's just not worth the heartache it caused.
How can he have no Coins 😂😂😂
That track looked sketchy mean ute old school and original
All that money to attract bogans 👍
And they say Holden guys are not gay 😂😂😂😂
It's called going fast, you wouldn't understand
Angry.As.Fuck
3 years ago this video blew my mind and after much hard work I have finally saved enough money to build my own ute.
