1200HP Barra Powered Foxbody in the USA! “American” 2JZ (4.0L Turbo Inline-6)

- On this episode we feature Charles' super clean Ford Barra Swapped Foxbody Mustang. We visited Michigan's street scene and found this absolute GEM! The Barra engine is a naturally aspirated 4.0L inline-6 that was produced by Ford Australia during 2002-2016. A-Star Fabrication built the engine, custom fit it into the Foxbody Mustang and slapped a massive 80MM turbo on it. The sound of the barra is soo good, strap in and enjoy this awesome feature video!

American 2JZ? You mean Australian 2JZ :)
Oath mate
I know right.
🤣
If that is the case then it should be Australian ZJ2
Yep that's an Australian motor been around for a while nice to see it made it's way over here now, that thing is capable of reaching sick hp.
As an Australian I’m Proud of this Video
Thanks man
@@detroitbarra9270 Your car is badass man, nice. Very unique.
He need to drive it hard or maybe it still not tune yet
@@detroitbarra9270 I am ur first Subscriber from Australian
They were sold in New Zealand to and Australia they are the only people who got them
Barra swapped fox, and a Barra swapped GT350 all in one lifetime. Yeah, this is gonna be good
@Joe Blow stfu
Adams is dope. Crazy how clean it looks in his gt350. I like how he can put the hood on with out too much problems
@Joe Blow wtf are you on
@Joe Blow of course a troll account named joe blow is the one saying that xD
@@rorarueta4899 I'm not a fan of the transmission he used in that swap. I hate how loud and clanky it is to drive. Shoulda kept it old fashioned stick or built auto.
this reminds of Adam LZ's GT350 with sequential gear box.....need to feature that one of these days lol
I don't think so , he has his own channel that shows all that.
@@sladeb6036 Adam has already been featured on either this channel or 1320 before with his drift S15, it's good publicity.
@@jesselucas7503 yeah I'm sure it wouldn't hurt this channel since he does have 3 million something subscribers
@@sladeb6036 well you gotta think Adam Lz is a big youtuber so that would be good for this channel for views and new ppl and that can do the same for Adam lz
@@carscarsandmorecars3266 yes true , that's what my second comment was aiming at. It definitely wouldn't hurt TRC an would probably help it blow up since it is a well done channel.
The Barra Motor down here in Australia was the motor of choice by ford Australia for it's hero car. GM(Holden) pushed its LS. The barra was being used in the majority of Taxi cabs here just to give you an idea of how common they are and seem to withstand high ass kms and a beating. Coming out in factory turbo and lpg variants they are everywhere and aftermarket wise we are spoilt with choice as most upgrades to get your falcon doing decent power figures on the shelf here. Its a shame Ford didnt keep the plant alive here in Australia and ship them worldwide into other model cars.
Yeah. But hopefully ford makes another car with barras in the future
Agreed, newer variants of the barra would have been awesome, especially if that meant stronger and all imperfection previously fixed.
@@snapped4433 it will never happen down here Ford Australia shut shop in 2016
They should've started offering them in American trucks & SUVs instead of the dumbass V6s
Not as cool as the Barra but in the process of copying Power Nation and turboing a 4.9L F150. Wish I had a Barra though, or maybe I will buy one.
Love that taxi drone :) Nice vid boys :)
Barra the world?
Hey!!! What's up boys... 👍
Not sure what a borra is though
2K Barraaaaaaaaaaaaa 🤣
@@jenabby07 a nickname for the engine
Had 1200rwhp in my F6 Tornado- imagine driving on a live axle, spring arse end.
Just how us Aussies roll!
Nice
👍
That’s my guy Andy. Dude is a serious fabricator and tuner. When I seen this car in person last year, I knew it would be a beast. Good job Andy and Briggs. Detroit stand up!
I wiped it down for this video haha
This is definitely an Australian engine, from Ford Australia, has never been used in a single American car.
This seemed to make a lot of yee yee Ford Fanboys upset lol
Thank you, someone needed to say it...
Agreed. Nothing about the engine is American. Besides the oval badge.
My bad, thought you were meaning first time it was used in an American car. That bit is untrue (search Ben Paganoni's Barra Foxbody) but they never came out in any American car from the factory. 👍
Is this supposed to be an insult to American manufacturing ?
No one needed to say it. He put ‘American’ in parenthesis because he was being tongue in cheek. We ALL on here know the Barra is an Aussie only engine used in a variety of cars. It’s kind of a dream engine for Americans because of its rarity and huge power it’s capable of.
Congratulations on this build. Took the long way home and deserve all the kudos you can get. Didn’t go the easy route and swapped an LS or a 2j. A coyote doesn’t even drop in a fox easily. This is awesome.
Coyote drops in any fox chassis easily. Not sure where you got your info but it's wrong
Barras we're sold in Aussie and NZ. We do have afew quick ones rolling around in NZ
NZ is just Australia’s 3rd territory 😜
Awesome engine! FORD is American. Full Stop.
@@GMVracing Yeah. My name is Bill to. I was made and born in Australia but I'm actually American 🤔
@@GMVracing Barra was built by FORD AUSTRALIA
@@GMVracing it’s Australian bro
Yep our Barra engine is the final iteration of an engine that has evolved in many many versions from cross flow heads to single OHC versions, many types of fuel injection etc and is a direct descendant of the 144/170/188/200/221/250 cubic inch sixes from 1960 onwards to this unit, all built by Ford Australia in the state of Victoria at the Ford Geelong plant.
I read that right huh?! It says American 2jz? 😂😂 nah man, I’m a New Zealander and we all know the Barra is from the Aussies
But ford is an american company
@@TheZaashi Ford Aus and Ford UK have nothing to do with Ford America… FACT! Try using google for something educational. If they did, youd have our Barra engines and falcons over there… but you dont bc Ford US has zero control of Ford Au
@@jeepnutscotty YOU SIR!!!!
Are 100% correct.
@@jeepnutscotty Ford is still ford no matter where in the world it is. All still one corporation.
@@jeepnutscotty that's like saying McDonald's in Japan isn't American because they have no control on what they sell. It's still American owned
GM Atlas aluminum inline 6 4.2 liter, another gem.
Are You Talking About Nivlac57 s Turbo Vortec 4200 Power Fifth Gen Camaro
They aren't all n/a, some came with turbos such as the xr6 turbo and the g6e turbo
Silvertops are way cheaper tho
@@yota8325 and have twigs for rods….
@@jeepnutscotty that's actually nonsense, usually they kick rods from shithouse tuning. A motor that does 400kw on a stock bottom end is hardly weak, but old mate doing his #barratheworld build in his backyard turning up his 3582r to 18psi and a homemade dose pipe will break things. Mines tuned properly and never had an issue and likewise a heap of mates with them.
@@jeepnutscotty ye they aren't as strong but most are either doing a budget build where 400kw is enough or their doing a full build like this one where it doesn't really matter what you start with.
@@jeepnutscotty you got to understand how much of a torque monster these engines are. Similar sized rods would probably be classed as heavy duty comp rods for a 500hp chev or ford v8.
Australia always gets the good stuff. 😂😂😂 Badass build man.
No Australia didn't get the good stuff, they made the good stuff.
#Barra Tha World 🌎 Much Respect to our Aussie Brothers💪💪THANK-YOU!!!
Title should be corrected to "Australian" 2JZ imo
Was made by ford and ford is a American company
@@falconhydropowercleaning7622 was designed and made by australians for ford australia in australia for australian cars. By your logic a bugattis and lambos are german cars because they are owned by VW
@@laurean5998 the difference is they are german engineered, the 5.2l huracan engine is from audi unlike the 5.0 in the gallardo earlier, the w16 is VW engineered. the barra is from aussies, done.
@@azeQify its from A.erica just accept it
@@laurean5998 was designed by Americans, funded by an American company and the patent is owned by Ford a American company just accept it
It makes me happy to see more adoption of this engine in the states. I’ve got dreams of putting one of these bad Bois in my ‘15 Ford Mustang GT like Adam’s GT350 but a smaller turbo and more turned for drifting instead straight line racing. Hopefully more support in the future for the states.
That looks so good in that foxbody. Wow hopefully it starts a trend.
"" turned up we should be able to make 1200-"
*ad plays*
me: Great! now I have time to process this information.
I love these builds bro! When someone builds something unique and dreamed up out of their mind, that alone is my definition of what's cool! FUGGIN AMAZING BUILD!
90% arguing about Barra origins, 10% complementing this awesome build. Just a shame it's not a different colour though; as I thought this was Ben's Fox, of Drag Week fame at first !!
Those welds on the intake are beautiful
Hearing you yanks say Barra hurts my brain lol.
The Bar in Barra pronounced like Barry not Bark.
How do you think when we listen to the way you pronounce GTR or HKS? Lol it’s not gee dee awe or hache Kay Es.
@@BboyBlackout none of those are American so who are you to say how to pronounce them?
baaaaaaaaarra
@@ryanf2709 being American they probably can’t say Barry right either lol
It’s not bah-rah it’s bara. But seriously how do you even convey this in text. Enjoy the burra taxi cab motor you good lads. 🍻
Gotta check out AdamLZ's GT350 with the Barra in it when he finishes that up next!
His car been done for awhile now. He just keep changing things
"1200HP Barra Powered Foxbody in the USA! “American” 2JZ (4.0L Turbo Inline-6)" I'm not so sure about the "American" bit. I bet you guys meant to put Australian there lol
Such a cool build! I’ve been a long time turbo v6 owner, but one was a gmc syclone as my first car in 1997, and for the last 21 years a Buick GN. So in my 24 years driving, I’ve always owned turbo charged cars, trucks, and now a Jeep Wrangler. Pretty cool to see another turbo inline 6 out there besides the 2jz that’s all over
Gm does 4.2 vortex inline6
Yup. Look into the vortec
Best inline 6 - All.
M104, 2jz, Barra, RB and TB Nissan Engines, 1FZ, etc etc..
As an Aussie, that pronunciation of Barra was cringe af. It's not a borough, it's a BARRA. You don't say boroughcuda or boroughmundi. 🤦
It was killing me hey lol
yep!
my brain hurts everytime they butcher the name
Maf coming in with gods words #mafforprimeminister
as a kiwi, i second this, also up that mana as silvertop
Adam lz has one of the cleanest new age body Mustang swaps I have seen..
Minus the fire damage lol but it gives it character
Aussies ran a barra swapped Foxbody at drag week 2019 in the US
Now imagine if they had sold a few mustangs under FPV with a Barra turbo.
Long live the Barra! Great build.
Sounds absolutely awesome!!😍
Sold in australia,new zealand and south Africa.i live in New Zealand.i have a bf2 falcon xr6 turbo,factory fitted barra with a tremec t56.im keeping it till I die
As an American Ford guy, I'm so fucking jealous of Australia's BAD ASS sedans.
The saffas never got them dude. Just us and the Aussies. People forget they were built in NZ for years and alot of influence plus parts were from here till the end
@@Flying_GC You could get one in a Territory in South Africa 👍
This thing is clean. One of my favorite mustang models.
I remember when this amazing dude was on a local forum doing dsm's.. which he probably still does. Long Live XceedSpeed OG's!
This is sick dude! The Barras are gonna be hot in all kinds of chassis
Buy em up quick before they're all gone
Yuck. Why would you put a Link on that when Haltech makes a waaaay better ECU for barras?
I came here to say exactly this!
THIS!
Lol. Haltech fanboys. No clue. Wouldn't put one near my Barra.
@@Flying_GC pretty clear who has no clue here.
@@Flying_GC Nothing wrong with being a fan of the best
Way to go guys can't wait to see this in person !
Love seeing a ford(barra) in a Ford. the barra is no joke🔥great to see America getting behind these engines
Only 5 in the whole🇺🇸 US ?
Wow there’s 5 of these just in my block down here....
Good to see em reach the US🇺🇸 💪🏼🏁🏁
Not really, it impacts the price we pay for them here. Bugger them, that's our Barra and we want it back... 😂
😂🤣🤷🏼♂️
There's more than 5,(there's probably 5 (Grey market) Au Falcons in the NW of the US) this guy just doesn't know of them, Adam LZ put one in his Shelby GT350 with a sequential. A few guys have put them in drift cars. Years ago I seen someone had one in a early 2000s ranger.
@@YOSHI450R cool 👍🏼🏁
Good to see our Barras getting around the globe 😂😂
Holy crap! That car is wicked! Awesome!
This is pleasing. Good job guys.
Love it!!! Great job on the build, congrats. I'm all in on the Barra. Please share the details on sourcing one in the states!!!
Gotta love when TRC uploads.
Facts
that foxbody is sooo good. such a good combo
Anyone gonna say that “the skid factory” did this build a few years ago and ran it at drag week successfully. It great that those guys started this trend
This thing sounds dope 🔥🔥
Ford Australia magic, great to see it in some American muscle 🇺🇸 💪💪💪 🇦🇺
This has got be one of the coolest Fox-body Mustangs ever.
You had me at knotchback, then black, then berra, then 1200hp. I'll watch this.
I'm with the motive video guys It's as Ausie as it gets.
true king of the engines
6 inline have unique sound, i love it
The Barra is one of the best and most unique sounding engines ever
It's under square and high litre makes it very torquie, however low reving to around 6,500-7,000rpm. Which also means they don't have that limiter bash sound that RBs and 2js have. However N/A I honestly can't tell if they a v8 or not when they go past. Love the sound mine (na) makes.
@@uptheau2875 That's dope as fuck, thank you for all this info I'm high as fuck rn and after reading your comment Im watching every single video on Barra engines possible.
Even my NA ute sounds good.
th-cam.com/video/kgQEf2sY0Sg/w-d-xo.html
Man that thing sounds like it's mad at somebody😯🔥
I been knowing bout Bara for 3 years now, ggz
Such an interesting and unique swap!
Sounds sooo good !!
I'm more of a Holden boy but I love the old school Fords, these Barra-Ts are something else though 👌
Although around here you can't go a day without hearing some P-plater in his straight piped N/A Falcon thinking he's Adam LZ 🤣
Vs some goon in his buick VR Commodore thinking he's Cletus McFarland?
@@Flying_GC would rather be in the commodore than a falcon
Idk mate but in qld it's always a straight piped sv6 vt or ve commy farting along the road. Rarely hear an NA falcon (excluding mine) since I can't tell whether they v8 or not...
@@Flying_GC every freaking day bro 😂
@@uptheau2875 If you can't tell the difference between a barra and a V8 you got bigger problems to worry about! 😂
Unique Cars Are Always More Interesting. 👌
My dream build. Ford built straight six powerhouse in my favorite chassis
Badass Barra build Guys 🖤
Awesome car, live seeing "different "
I’ve always been envious of young people who have enough responsibility to save to build cars like these. The amount of money invested is unreal to a mass majority of us
I wouldn't be surprised if he has a good job - mechanical engineering, or middle-management, or something else that pays solid.
cocaine smuggling LOL just kidding.@@Baribrotzer
Good Video!!
Unique Swap!!
This is my type of car/build right here 👏
nuff love form jamaica i love your video
bawa Swapped 😂
Yeah lmao the way they pronounce it had me dead
Perfect combination!
Super cool build 💯
It’s not American. It’s also not an Australian version of anything foreign. It’s the greatest in-line 6 ever made 🇦🇺
Πες τα ρε πατριδα
It’s American bruh accept it
@chuy sauceda Bullshit !!
@chuy sauceda 2jz definitely has a weaker block and bottom end. 2jz hold about 500 stock reliably
@@USandGlobalLMMAOOOOOSNSSHE THE BARRA AINT AMERICAN
It's the australian 2JZ, finally some barra love!
Made by ford that mean its American
@@falconhydropowercleaning7622 but it wasn’t made by Ford America which means it’s not a American engine it was never even sold in the us so just well stfu
@@falconhydropowercleaning7622 it wasn't even sold in America u spud and it was made by Australians at ford Australia for Australian cars...
Very nice 👍...love to see update when it hits the track
So clean and unique
Australian engine all day long since wen has the u.s ever had a fg ,ba falcon and or ford territory ??? don't get me wrong love the build is so sick and is a monster and is really cool to c them world wide 🤙
American company though
@@alanrowley6402 omg dude!! Ford Au and Ford UK are not controlled or ran by Ford US…. ZERO!!! If Ford was an American company as you state, youd have all our engines and cars, but you guys have NOTHING!!! Educate yourself bro
@@jeepnutscotty 100 % correct bro pple need to do the research and school themselves before stating stuf they have no clue bout
Calling a barra American because ford is a US company is like calling Henry Ford English because he isnt a Native American.
@@marnixhoebers5176 it's based off a North American used I6 and uses technology and designs from North America and is owned by an American company. It's like saying Toyota tundras are American just because they are built and sold in the U.S. sorry Australians never came up with thier own car company's Ford is an American car company.
Id love to have Matt Farrah's mustang with a turbo Barra in it!
SO SICK!
That looks mad.
I'm happy that FP is still a live and well on many builds
Since you covered this swap I THINK you should bring Adam LZ on this channel
best sounding barra I've heard...
Love the Australian 2jz 😍
Let's settle this. It's an 'American Car' with an 'Australian Engine'. :)
Dont you mean Australia 2jz? These engines were never released in America
That's why its in quotes bro learn to read.
Let’s be honest, that Engine fits so well with that body.
Absoulutely beast of a car, same motor as mine in my xr6turbo
Aussie powa, mate.
Adam Lz gt350 Barra swapped check it out as well both sick asf🔥🔥💯
When's he gonna make a decent pass?
@@Jake_Hamlin his waiting on some suspension parts before going back to the track
Does it even run atm ?
@@nordic5490 it runs. He had recent issues of the flywheel bolts backing out because of the harmonics of the engine
BARRA is a BEAST !!!
Beautiful beast
I ❤️ Barra’s
Last year al and woody from skid factory travelled to usa and brought with them everything to barra swap a fox body for a drag week or drag challenge.check them out on youtube
Awesome Built!!
That car is definitely a beast .. A widow maker
ive never seen a guy so nervous to get on his car. 3 second pulls
What's this "American" 2JZ business? Don't you mean AUSTRALIAN 2JZ???
AWESOME!
I love it!!!
