Its funny you give me shit im 18 and i have my p's and also own a wrx and ive never been beatin by a ford power to weight is a big thing. Also its like a 95 mod thats standed and as everyone says yeah other cars and beat them in a line but around a track the rex would own it fords arnt bad cars from 2008 on.
sorry to say dude wrx are not as good as u think used to work on them the engines are little alloy hunks of garbage and the gear boxes are made of glass .yes u can get them working good after you mod the shit out of them.but u cant go past a turboed 4 ltr 6 for raw power even a 7 .10 psi they are a animal of a engine ..
Put it this way the wrx is probs standed and the shit box ford well sorry to ford lovers i work at qford and all fords are shit boxes it cant be a ford motor or if it is the rex wouldnt be giving it a boot full cause i own a wrx and there a awesome car so yeah
@Brooksy888Whincup Thanks man :) I agree that the stopping/turning ability of the old E-series is nothing to write home about, it's something I'm going to have to invest a lot of money into I'm afraid :/
good shit man, forget these fuckwitted cunts talkin shit. maybe the wrx would beat the falc from a standstill, who knows, regardless this race wasnt from a standstill, it was a rolling start, and the suby lost, simple as that.
Evil cunt The ED's are still considered part of the box car era u tool due to their shape as were the EA and EB. The EF and after saw the Box car era end for ford. They also acme in a 3.9 ltr. The humble Xflow was also injjected thru '86 and after '87. If ya wanna waxlyrical doosh bag get your facts straight
What is it with Aussie wanting to drive a bloody Jap cars that can't make the amount of power that Aussie cars can without dropping like 30 as apposed to 15 plus Jap cars look like sh%t too nothing beats the Ford box car era oh yeah!!! But I guess if u like men in a sexual manner it's ok to drive a rex
There's no replacement for displacement. Wrx is essentially meant to be a rally car, but stupid people buy them for road use and get sad when they find out they have to spend $10,000 on turbo's and exhaust kits to make it a half decent racer. Fords are stock road performance, no arguement.
standard shit box subaru gets eaten by my ef fairmont. P platers round here think a manual gear box and some shit 18 inch wheels make there subaru quick, my standard lookin auto fairmont shits all over them.. ford 3 subaru 0
I have ed fairmont 5speed 4.0 bored to 4.5 fuel injected, extractors, 10 inch pod worked lifters lumpy cam n/a that eats subaru's for breakfast lunch and t so all u wrx nutters can eat it, having owned a version 2 and version 4 wrx i know them to be lagging pieces of shit that constantly smell like oil and cost thousands to maintain, where for half the price i can have a 1993 ford that shits all over them
the falcon 4litre is an awsome engine, it already has great torque output, combine that with some boost and you that will get the falcon out in front everytime. I like all cars, so im not going to bag any of them, but for all people that think little Jap cars are better than everything else on the road, go do your homework. Big cubes + boost = massive torque.
@titin200 my corolla sportivo na will beat pretty much any aussie 6 in a straight line..i think wrx will always win with a good driver behind the wheel..if you still dont agree then whatever this has gone on long enough..im over it.
@trendkill777 i know this is a old comment but what you where talking about is power to weight. The rex already had that advantage, the falcon weighs more and started with less power. i say thats a bloody good job of the falcon
i own a ED and a R33 and in reply to some of the stupid coments down below, you idiots are thick if u think an rb motor is worn out at 50'000, mines around 150'000 and never has used a drop of oil, no way a boosted e series 4L will ever last as long as a factory built and designed turbo motor
@mattb087 bullshit lol, i have a 4.1 ed fairmont bored to 4.3 injected with 8 inch pod into extractors into 3 inch exhaust and i leave subies for fucking dead without the turbo
Lol that is such a retarded comment. Which one? A new GTR? An old GTR? An old GTR with 20k in mods? A stock N/A auto R33? Your skyline?
Just saying 'a skyline' is dumb. There are plenty of skylines out there that would kick my ass, but plenty of skylines out there who have gotten a face full of humble pie :)
The RB26DET engine can rip any ford falcon engine especialy and ED engine, a SR20DET could. For $3000 you can get a Skylines RB26DET engine from 290hp which is already 70hp more than an ED's hp to over 400hp.
Shit I accidentally hit 'remove' instead of 'reply' :( Feel free to post again, I love the discussion :)
In what way does your stock N14 Pulsar relate to my car and skylines in any way shape or form? Are you saying with 3k worth of mods you can do a flat 12? That's how fast you'd need to go to beat me...
Really? How long will the RB engine last, about 10000k;s? A ED engine will do 300000 without needing a rebuild.
Also, why dony you compare it to some thats more in its class, like a DOHC ford 4 litre, that is in the Typhoon or Xr6 turbo, Im sure your 3 grand spent on a typhoon would see past 550 HP. And still least a good 150000k's Unlike you rice burner, Why do you think Japan exports them once they done 50000ks, because the engines are fucked, burn oil and blow smoke.
@LiLMackaELi6 cars have to imported at those kms because of strict emissions laws not because there fucked if your gonna bag out jap cars at least know some true facts there buddy.
But if you put it up against a car worth 4 times as much as this was new and it had 8 times as much spent on it as you did it would beat it. Who gives a crap!
The Video is about this car and how it smashed a WRX. Nice ride by the way.
I accidentally deleted your comment asking 'but are they as fun to drive as those jap cars" - meant to hit reply :/
What were you referring to? Is my car as fun to drive as a WRX? I've never had a chance to thrash one, but my ex has a modded S15 and my brother has an R32 (we're putting an R34 RB25 in it atm) and I have just as much fun in my car as those. Probably more because breaking traction@100km/h never gets old :D
this is true... i don't remember posting the comment to you. I don't remember who it was to at all. but i don't doubt its ability to make you grow in the pant region.
Anyways, was checking my inbox and found a reply to some comment I apparantly made....(the above) don't think I made this one Dan lol, I don't even know anything about the Z06.....
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
yer u fagget cunt u aussies think ur v8 holdens and fords r quiker u put ur cars up agaisnt a proper done up newer model sti of evo or supra or gtr and then u will c u faggets
How old are you? 14? This car runs low 12's, there arent many newer model jap cars that can do that standard. And the ones that can, cost about 20 times as much as this car.
Nope, if it's been looked after it will be fine - stock bottom ends from EB-EL falcons are good for 500rwhp if the turbo setup is up to the task and the tune is good - you will need stiffer valve springs though.
do you need a almost brand new engine to put a turbo on it or would a good condition 6 cyl with reasonably good K's and a recently rebuilt head be ok?
It's changed a lot since this vid was taken, and how much you spend is really a matter of asking how fast you want to go :P check out boostedfalcon (dot) net and you will find plenty of info :)
there is no such thing as a RWD GTR skyline except ya 71 model and shyte,between R32 and R35 you can get RWD single turbo which are known as GTS-T's for all you girls that are arguing
less drive train loss in a rwd, so if the engine is making the same power output in either configuration, rwd will be faster, till power levels reach a point where traction is an issue. which is a point your not at.
dont get me wrong im not trying to stick up for the subi, i think drags are gay and in the end are not a battle of drivers skill.
no way! u would not take a standard wrx to powercruise!? so theres no way it was standard! stop argueing... it wasnt around corners though so thers no "but if's"
hhahah u see the wrx keeping up until u hear the turbo of the ED spool up then byebye!
In a strait line, yeah, but put any curves in your way, or add some mods to that wrx, and it will blow your doors off. BTW, did they ever sell that turbo falcon in the US? this is the first iv heard of it must be a euro car or something, or they are really shitty so no one buys them, i mean they are fords after all. HA, all in good fun though.
Ford Australia never sold a turbo Falcon until the BA XR6 turbo - I built the motor and fitted the turbo to this car myself. The WRX did have an exhaust and front mount at least just BTW.
Dollar for dollar, a turbo 4 litre will smash a turbo 2 litre any day...
no da, but thing the wrx has ten times the grip especially in the twistys. i wish the sold those falcons here, i would have more respect for fords then.
You're assuming I want the back of the car to stick :P A wrx with comparitive suspension/drivetrain/brake mods to my car would be quicker round a circuit, but I guarantee I'd have a much bigger smile at the end, and much less tread on the rear bags :D
actually an awd is faster when raced against an equivelant rwd car, obviously you have no idea what its like racing a car. take not in any recent time attack events, evos and awd skylines win and wop on the rwd bmw m3's. but super high end race cars way out of anyones price range are rwd soley to reduce the weight of the car. here is a reason the awd skyline is one of the fastest factory cars around the Nürburgring race track.
Ask any racer, they will tell you that you're wrong. AWD's are worse in the dry than the equivelant RWD. If you could get a GTR RWD and GTR AWD completely equal in everyway (bar RWD/AWD obviously) the RWD will be faster in the dry but in the wet the AWD will be faster.
Everyone knows this. Look it up on the internet if you must.
You can get a rwd gtr and it is slower than a awd one. cause awd has more grip.The more power that you can put to the ground, the fast the car will be.on a drag strip its because of weight shiting to the rear that the rwd is faster. puts more pounds per square inch of pressure on the tires, increasing the friction coefficient allowing the tires to grip more.
AWD>RWD For examples look up most time attack lap times and the awd unlimited will almost always beat the rwd unlimited
There is no such thing as 'too much grip'. If you have understeer it just means you don't have enough front-end grip compared to the rear.
AWD isn't allowed in F1 and allowed in only some Le Mans classes because it is expensive and an unfair advantage - you'll find that every race car is built right to the extent of the rule book - if they were allowed AWD, rest assured they would have it!
You just don't get it do you? I'm betting you either a) Own a WRX and can't hack that your fully sik hectic bro car may possibly loose to a falcon, or b) Are 14 and have read all about WRXs in magazines and just KNOW they are TeH bEsTeSt car In TeH WorLdZ loL.
When I race people and loose, I don't have a big teary or argue over teh innernetz, I just accept that someone has a faster car. I've even posted a video on here - search for "ED Falcon turbo ls1"
Ford Falcon ED has heaps of torque "naturally" all Fords I6es have allot of torque, a big 4Litre,smooth power! of course they beat the sh!ttty little Jap cars:)

your arguing over a sick video, WHO CARES whats better, its an awesome falcon!!!
Congrats mate, but where is the fulllyyy sick bov dose CUZZZ? ahahah
i play on gettin an xe falcon with a 250 x-flow and converting it to gas n turboing it, just because i love the look and the sound of em hahaha..

less drive train loss in a rwd, so if the engine is making the same power output in either configuration, rwd will be faster, till power levels reach a point where traction is an issue. which is a point your not at.
dont get me wrong im not trying to stick up for the subi, i think drags are gay and in the end are not a battle of drivers skill.
but yeh, simply put, your wrong

@TRUTHHURTSAY
agreed, a good size, a good lay out being an over head cam straight 6 makes it simple but it puts the torque down so well. Reliable in my history too

In a strait line, yeah, but put any curves in your way, or add some mods to that wrx, and it will blow your doors off. BTW, did they ever sell that turbo falcon in the US? this is the first iv heard of it must be a euro car or something, or they are really shitty so no one buys them, i mean they are fords after all. HA, all in good fun though.

Ford Australia never sold a turbo Falcon until the BA XR6 turbo - I built the motor and fitted the turbo to this car myself. The WRX did have an exhaust and front mount at least just BTW.
Dollar for dollar, a turbo 4 litre will smash a turbo 2 litre any day...

no da, but thing the wrx has ten times the grip especially in the twistys. i wish the sold those falcons here, i would have more respect for fords then.
boomerro 4 years ago
You're assuming I want the back of the car to stick :P A wrx with comparitive suspension/drivetrain/brake mods to my car would be quicker round a circuit, but I guarantee I'd have a much bigger smile at the end, and much less tread on the rear bags :D

Too much grip isn't always good. An AWD/4WD is actually slower when raced against an equivelant RWD. But in the wet the AWD/4WD would win hands down.
Theres generally not as much potential in a 2L 4cyl than a 4L 6 cyl. (Generally - engine styles and such.)

actually an awd is faster when raced against an equivelant rwd car, obviously you have no idea what its like racing a car. take not in any recent time attack events, evos and awd skylines win and wop on the rwd bmw m3's. but super high end race cars way out of anyones price range are rwd soley to reduce the weight of the car. here is a reason the awd skyline is one of the fastest factory cars around the Nürburgring race track.

You're an idiot. I have nothing more to say.
Conlad1 4 years ago
could you back that up? cause you have no evidence to support your claim
boomerro 4 years ago
Ask any racer, they will tell you that you're wrong. AWD's are worse in the dry than the equivelant RWD. If you could get a GTR RWD and GTR AWD completely equal in everyway (bar RWD/AWD obviously) the RWD will be faster in the dry but in the wet the AWD will be faster.
Everyone knows this. Look it up on the internet if you must.
Conlad1 4 years ago
You can get a rwd gtr and it is slower than a awd one. cause awd has more grip.The more power that you can put to the ground, the fast the car will be.on a drag strip its because of weight shiting to the rear that the rwd is faster. puts more pounds per square inch of pressure on the tires, increasing the friction coefficient allowing the tires to grip more.
AWD>RWD For examples look up most time attack lap times and the awd unlimited will almost always beat the rwd unlimited

Too much grip = understeer
If AWD's are so much faster why are F1's RWD? if AWD's are so much faster why are Le Man's cars all RWD?
Conlad1 4 years ago
There is no such thing as 'too much grip'. If you have understeer it just means you don't have enough front-end grip compared to the rear.
AWD isn't allowed in F1 and allowed in only some Le Mans classes because it is expensive and an unfair advantage - you'll find that every race car is built right to the extent of the rule book - if they were allowed AWD, rest assured they would have it!

LOL dude, its a fucking formala 1 car! how can you compare that to anything else, there fast cause there fucking light as feathers.
OFDCLK 3 years ago
wtf are you on about? first you say rwd is slower then you say its faster beacuse of more presure on the tyres.
you dont know what your talking about, every car puts pressure on the back wheels when takeing off, even a Front wheel drive.

You just don't get it do you? I'm betting you either a) Own a WRX and can't hack that your fully sik hectic bro car may possibly loose to a falcon, or b) Are 14 and have read all about WRXs in magazines and just KNOW they are TeH bEsTeSt car In TeH WorLdZ loL.

You keep arguing over the video, why? It's fucken clear to everyone here that old mate in the rex got trounced in a heads up race, on a race track.
He gassed it first, he stayed into it, and I fucken kicked his ass. End of story.
Rollinfourlitre 4 years ago
When I race people and loose, I don't have a big teary or argue over teh innernetz, I just accept that someone has a faster car. I've even posted a video on here - search for "ED Falcon turbo ls1"
Have a great day :)
