Quentin's Holden Torana is one of the most consistently quick genuine street cars in Australia so it's great to see if back on the road after an engine rebuild. *Fresh NEW Merch 😁👉 25 years of fullBOOST 🤙 **shop.fullboost.com.au/collections/fullboost* If you’d like to be notified every time we upload a video, subscribe and then click the bell icon 🔔 next to the subscription button.
Wow, 25 years!!! Congrats Luke and Jordan, you run a bloody good outfit here at FullBoost. Thanks for 25 years of entertainment, guys! I've been watching your stuff since about 2001... That's 21 years guys! I should get a badge or something, I reckon 😉 LOL!
The number of six second street cars is growing and growing. JUN 2 just ran a 6.54 @ 211mph today. Twenty years ago these were competitive numbers for Top Doorslammers. What a time to be alive.
within my lifetime they were competitive numbers for Top Fuel. When I first went to the drags breaking 7 seconds and 200mph was special. Modern day drag racing engineering is simply amazing.
I remember John Meaney of Big Stuff EFI saying that you want to have your hp higher in the rpm range to avoid breakage and to stay away from a high torque/low rpm situation. Smart man.
@@billmopar6461 What do you mean, the man is right. If you've ever done any dyno tuning on big HP cars, you'd understand... Don't be so quick to shoot off at the mouth when you don't know what your talking about
@@billmopar6461 might want to learn to spell before insulting other peoples intelligence. Also high torque at low rpm means high cylinder pressure. The higher the cylinder pressure, the more load on everything and the higher chance of failure. High torque at low rpm feels great in a street car but doesn’t really help you much on the drag strip.
Awesome to see Q and his team back and ready to run some numbers ! What these guys have achieved is nothing short of outstanding and they all deserve that 6 second time card.
Thank god, he’s back 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻! I’m glad he repaired the old engine! Short stroke small blocks are always fast! People just don’t realize, that when your just about out of turbo, or blower, smaller cubes will put you back into a much better efficiency range! Also the shorter stroke cranks are much stronger! The pistons don’t pull out of the bottom of the bore! Many good things with the shorter stroke! Besides if you build it right, the power will be very close! His limiting factors are those exhaust manifolds & the factory intake, probably not the engine or turbos! It looks like he put a much stronger rotating assembly in it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻! 7.40s in a street car with a very basic setup is badass! One of the fastest! I think that combination will go faster, but I believe the manifolds & intake are holding him back 🙄🙄🙄🙄! Probably the reason it sounds like it’s struggling 🙄🙄🙄🙄! He’s trying to move a lot of air, with shit parts! Anyway glad to see Australian Jeff Lutz/Tom Bailey back out, except Quinten doesn’t spend a fortune, like the pro mod guys do 😜😜😜😜! Best of luck with it Bud! Mark is a awesome guy, to tune on such a low dollar deal 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😂😂😂😂! I’m glad to see they were smart enough to restall the converter! Some people just have no idea 🤷♂️! The 4in stroke setup in the converter, would have been way too tight, for a 3.622 stroke engine! Really nice Job boys 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻! Don’t worry Quinten, the bills are in the mail 😂😂😂😂!
I have seen this before myself a number of times, bigger cubes isn't always better. Some engines actually perform and make better peak and overall power standard or de-stroked vs stroked. From what I have been able to work out this normally happens due to head flow vs capacity. Eventually for a given head flow it plateaus or chokes the engine if the potential hp of the capacity out sizes the head's potential hp. Even if you fit the biggest cam you can, heads can only flow so much. Piston speed in stroked/standard/de-stroked also compounds this.
Now that is a street car! Full interior, exhaust and meets all relevant regulations. Not like a lot of those so called street cars you see on the US channels where as long as it has lights and indicators itøs road leagal.
A street car is any car legal for street use. It doesn't matter if it's a tube frame car. The car in this video would be illegal in countries like Singapore. Do I stop calling it a street car? No. Therefore, the US cars you mentioned deserve to be called street cars.
@@johncarl5505 For sure, but Tom Baileys car is not quite as streetable as this one! I love watching the drag and drive events, and anything that can do it counts as a street car. I just love full interior small tyre stuff going fast that much more.
That is amazing. Brilliant and hope you get deeper into the 7s. 👍💪 Crazy but that car makes exactly 1,000 more hp at the hubs than my ISF on the same dyno 😂😂🤣🤣
@Fullboost fuck sakes, well done, for a car that genuinely looks like a street-able car not some hacked up thing with 33inch slicks on the back and rego plates. Hats off mate. 10/10
Awesome car , but at the end of the day anything thats making big power isn't roadworthy to the book. Driven on the street or not its all about keeping quiet and not attracting attention to yourself in busy places.
That depends on your definition of street car. I can attest to this car's street Cred. I know Quinton and his tuner mate from Motec, Mark. This car has done 1000's of street k's... That kind of makes it a street car man, he DOES drive it on the street after all... As for passing a RWC, no it wouldn't pass as is, but with a few minor changes it'd be fine to be a fully engineered street car- but then again I could knock 95% of cars on the road for SOMETHING... Even very new cars, under a year old will have roadworthy issues most of the time when you put 'em up on the hoist and have a good close look

@@yarpos incredible ecu tuning technology does huh
@@jimmyloughnan9656 I reckon ECU tech + the prevalence of E85 has made a massive difference.

Yes and no, obviously you want to avoid lots of timing and engine load at peak torque but RPM is great at breaking parts
Toughest street Torana in the country💪
Much respect for this guy and his car. One very quick street car 😎🇦🇺
Awesome to see Q and his team back and ready to run some numbers ! What these guys have achieved is nothing short of outstanding and they all deserve that 6 second time card.
We need another street vid the last on was so good, also loved this one guys well done
It sounds like Quinton was up for it right then and there, as well! 😂 He's a champ, and Mark is a true gentleman...
Congratulations on 25years. I still have a picture of my old R33 from Luke. You have been around for a while now.
Love the comment from his tuner when fella asked..."How much faster do you need to go " Oh Dude 😂😂😂
Mark sounds like a real gentlemen and heaps of knowledge!
This car excites me so much. I’m pumped to see it’s back on the road and canny wait to see it back on the track ❤️
This bloke who owns this car lives around the corner from me….beast
Good to see this beast back in action and it sounds so sweet!
just a little bit exciting to see the old pink torana back together ready to launch.
This is magnificent work. Great to see the Torrie back up and running. Looking forward to seeing it at Heathcote.
Yeah, it's been a while huh...

Great to see this car back, inching towards the elusive 6 second zone 🔥🌶👌
Interesting watching the car stand up on the rear axle, but then settle back down as the torque changes over to power.
Ikr,
The launches look surreal!!!

Gotta love those "intensive purposes".
Good video. Love your work.
Love the car well done champ
Great video thanks for the insight into your journey !!
A massive fan of the Torana. I should never sold mine. Always awesome content 👍💯🇦🇺
Love this beast , unbelievable combo 💪👍
Awesome, this thing is so cool.
Very cool car love it
Wouldn't mind seeing the torque curve comparison between the two engines
That is amazing. Brilliant and hope you get deeper into the 7s. 👍💪
Crazy but that car makes exactly 1,000 more hp at the hubs than my ISF on the same dyno 😂😂🤣🤣
Absolute beast, my fav LH 🤙
Love the bullhorns🤘
Hell yer its back!
The ‘only’ things we have changed is… proceeds to list numerous parts lol
homer simpson car pink
Get this car to TX2K.
Less cubes will get more out of the turbo's. It'll make more power.
1st time seeing this. Noice😳
Did this thing first ever grace the scene with Side Mount charged efi 304??
No, that was a different car. 350 carby, then 383 carby and now TT LS
How's it a street car? Does he put the factory exhaust and wheels on to drive it to and from?
Yes.😁
Most of those pulls were with the full exhaust, and it runs on DOT ET street radials, so full street trim.
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
did I hear correct 7.41?
Yes
