Jake Edwards, turbocharged Torana

[dfpdxxl]

fuck beamers

[cannibaskid]

fuckin awesone rig bro.

[ChevorletC10]

how come the some of the cars have only one headlight? my gess is that if its turboed the turbo is located inside the headlight area....

[ssshane071]

Looks alot like the Chevy Malibu sold here in the States. Late 70's/early 80's.

[drumbasher]

Glad to see people still appreciate big motors down under. Here in the states, all they run are V6 and straight 4's. You have to go to official drag races to see the big V8's. Keep up the good work Aussies.

[ssshane071]

@drumbasher So the new Camaro's, Mustang's, Charger/Challenger's, and Corvettes don't have V8's??

[drumbasher]

@ssshane071 They do, but they have downsized them so much, its not the same as it was when I was a teenager. My 1st car was a 65 Ford Fairlane with a 302, it was a heavy car, but that motor could burn the rear tires up fast. The motors or today are weak in comparison.

[ssshane071]

@drumbasher The new Camaro and Corvette engine is 6.2 liters(supercharged in the 'Vette). Your old 302 was 5.0.  The Charger and Challenger engine is 392 c.i. Hemi. I'd say that's pretty big.

[vhcommy]

yay for turbo v8s WAY MORE TO COME NO DOUBT

[sLiPaWay09]

thats looks awesome

[alexoprel]

YAY for rotary engines :)

[somerandomaussie]

from what i read on this car jake is pretty much the best tuner when it comes to blow thru carbie turbo setups...the motor has almost stock interals and somehow pushes around 1000hp ....

[Aaendewyy]

Got eatten by a bmw m3 @ 0:22

[blownhemi]

Not really a stock M3 though, at the time that M3 had a quad rotor in it.

[sladey121]

@blownhemi Yeah quad rotor, big single turbo running about 1650hp.

[baldymp3]

@Aaendewyy and u may notice he sat at the green for a while getting it to spool up.

[zeffman99]

Green light means GO!!!!

[Bwah2012]

imagine how many more ozzys would have died in the 80s ... turbos n Victoria Bitter = dead ozzy

[flinchey]

@Bwah2012

a) it's 'aussie'

b) vb is like fosters, it's shit and a 'true' australian wouldn't drink it

they're called vomit bombs for a reason.

mad car though. lightning fast. bit ugly though, those front wheels are sooo narrow.

[nemesis3001]

@flinchey Dont know much about dragging do ya :)

[flinchey]

@nemesis3001 hahaha

nah

i know WHY they're narrow

they have to be

doesn't stop it from not looking nice on that particular body.

[humananus]

i never knew looks mattered when it comes to power and speed... go figure

[flinchey]

@humananus naw it doesn't

i said it was an awesome car

was just a passing comment that doesn't detract from the coolness.

[FTE747]

front wheels are narrow for a reason

[MrChappy199]

@flinchey lol shitloads of people drink vb dude!

[humananus]

vagina blood. ;]

[OutbackMojo]

DOnt knock VB. Its the best thing for cleanin BBQ's and one of our greatest exports. . . ..

Cause we won;t drink it.

hehehe

[ThebigTH]

get fucked. i love VB. what would a 'true' Australian drink then?

[flinchey]

@ThebigTH ahahaha

i dunno

coopers? decent aussie beer.

[ThebigTH]

i dont mind a pale ale actually.

[moparmav]

dogger

[ThebigTH]

no mate. i still love vb. i like alot of beers. but VB certainly isnt shit. youre just saying that to try and sound like a legend. but you're actually a fosters drinker.

[Jimmetalrules5546]

Boags premium

[6SLUG]

@flinchey haha vb like fosters? your a stooge mate! and front runners are the shit! you cant run slicks without them!

[flinchey]

@6SLUG it's true, decent beer or die. (if you say XXXX, everything you ever say ever again is invalid)

and, was just commenting about the narrow wheels in comparison to the rear :P

[6SLUG]

@flinchey haha good recovery on the beer front but the front runners are still good mate. take a look at a doorslammer if you think this thing has "narrow wheels in comparison"

[freestyla101]

@flinchey theyre called front runners

[illbefuct]

MAN he gives those wheelie bars a workout.
