looking awesome now man cant wait to make it out to the race oneday
@@joshuasgs3 thanks mate! Unfortunately Only a few more races left for the year!
@@almstlegalgarage I'll try make it to 1
G'day the VE looks bloody awesome mate. What a difference
@@Murphyslawfarm thanks mate! Appreciate your kind words!
it makes me want to eat it
@@trognant mmm, crusty old engine oil with a side of bearing material and aluminium 😂
@@almstlegalgarage so yummy lol (did you notice i made the sound you used? lol)
@@trognant haha yeah I did see that. It fits the video perfectly 😂
Is that in Whyalla?
@@zacharymcpherson8819 nope. Syp dirt circuit club. Brentwood.
Those stock wheels have got to be thrown in the bin. Needs a set of good quality race wheels.
@@RBFR01 cheers for watching! they definitely don’t look the greatest but they are functional. Stay tuned for the coming upgrade videos!
Wish I had a race track near me.
Glad you liked todays video! Having a newly formed club/ race track close by is the best! It’s changed my life!
@@almstlegalgarage Love the new race car sounds great 👍
@@Murphyslawfarm glad to hear it! Way more to come so make sure you stay tuned! This is only the beginning!
G'day mate great video
Sounds good!
@@martyburgess341 thanks Marty! Still a bit quiet for my liking so far but nothing a future custom race exhaust won’t help 👌🏻
@@almstlegalgarage Noice!
It looks like an Astra. Is that V8 cammed?
It’s the Aussie built bigger and better cousin of the astra. The ve commodore. Same as a Pontiac g8. To my knowledge it’s a completely stock engine at this stage
@@almstlegalgarage Thank you for the explanation. I thought it was cammed because it was chopping when u were turning to get it inside the shop lol. Best of luck with it.
@@Toxic2T no problems. It’s got a very strange exhaust set up on it that probably is giving it a tiny chop. The video definitely makes it sound rougher idle than in person 😂 that’s before all of the servicing and maintenance was done to the engine too. Cheers for your comment!
Where you located man this looks like wallaroo
Yeah not far from wallaroo on the yp
Sucks about the engine
It definitely wasn’t ideal but I think we have patched it back together well enough to hopefully keep going! Stay tuned for the next video. We take it out to the track for the first time!
G'day just found your channel and subbed mate 👍.
Cheers for the sub! Hope you like the content!
@@almstlegalgarage I like what I see so far mate.
Hey
Hello 👋🏻
What hotdog exhaust is that
This was a DEA performance 2 1/2 inch hotdog center, straight pipe rear with some added tips. Here’s the part number on their website. ST120HD-124TP
But did it move
Stay tuned for the next short to find out 😂
Do you have a linelock set up? Mine won't stand still always wants to creep forward doing any sort of skid
Hey Ryan! This one’s got no rear brakes. I originally built it to be a burnout car so they were the first things to go. Alternatively you could use brake line clamps on the soft lines to the rear brakes to allow you to stand still with a stock car.
great racing. does it lack power lowend tho? my vx is stock as a rock and it would smoke these guys
Thanks mate! We have only just started so it will only get better from here. The camera makes it look slow and it’s on loose dirt track. I recommend coming out and having a watch because the camera doesn’t do it justice 😂 But our car does lack power under 3000rpm. It’s got a huge camshaft and it’s geared to suit high rpm (being an ex speedway car) anything under 3000 it over fuels coughs and farts that you can hear in the video, once over that it takes off. We have a few fixes for the off season to fix this
@@almstlegalgarage that makes more sence man
And in true tradition of the GM sound of power. You stomp on the accelerator and the sound varies by volume and octave only.
Still enough power to win some races and beat the fords 😉 but Anything below 3000rpm it’s a bit of a dog. Way too much fuel. Anything above that it takes off like a rocket ship. Being an ex speedway car it’s geared and tuned for higher rpm. Which I don’t get to stay in for this form of racing. Few changes happening in the off season to fix this
😃 *Promo SM*
What did you pay for the car as I'm looking to get into the sport
I ended up stealing this one for $3k. Plenty of great cars around ready to race or project at the moment being off season ranging anywhere from 2k to 5k for a good car! By far the cheapest Motorsport around and awesome fun! I’d definitely recommend getting into it!
Keen see more on this 🙏🏻
Great to hear! Check out my Instagram almstlegal garage to see what’s been happening with the beast between videos 👍🏻
What cam
@@inglisclint6225secret custom speedway grind cam
Any more work done bro
I’ve Started to weld in some rust repair patch panels in the Rolla. I’m a complete novice self learning on panel work and didn’t think it would be good watching. Can definitely put something together in the next week or two if you would be interested in watching 🙂
the engine plate would be riveted in like the others and is upside down.
So you think this one has been tampered with with the screws and being upside down?
@@almstlegalgarage 100%
@@isaganibarry8201 thought so. All the numbers match. Just thought it was odd it was installed upside down 🤷🏻♂️
Super handy video. I've got cast iron rims too and had no idea how to go about this, cheers!
No problems. Glad it helped you out!
Yep, me too. I was going to take the whole wheel off just to fix a puncture 😂😂@@almstlegalgarage
Glad I could help you out!
It’s about time been waiting for a while😂
Around 13 months, just a little late for our annual yearly update 😂 hoping to be a lot mor consistent in video uploads in the future! Thanks for your patience 👌🏻
Hi mate, how much do you reckon it might cost me to convert from a manual to the th400 in a VF? Cheers
Hi Steve. It really depends of the level of build you want or what you want to build the car to do. My build cost me around 10k with me installing everything. You can probably get it done cheaper, and you can definitely spend a lot more than what I did.
Go 4l80e it a upgrade of a th400 and got over drive
Good video, considering TH400 in my VY
Thanks mate. If you have any questions about the swap let us know and I’ll try and help out
The brakes do hold it your sliding on the dirt
Hey man is there a way I can email you? Cheers
Yeah mate. You can message us on Facebook at almstlegal garage or almstlegal burnout car. I’m not very good at responding to emails 😂
@@almstlegalgarage ah sweet thanks heaps I just sent your Facebook page a message 👍
@@braydenmcdonald3012 hey mate. did the reply on the page come through?
Looks awesome man! What size tire are you planning on running?
15x7 steel rims with 205/65r15 for burnouts Not sure for show haha. I’ll make the tubs wide enough for some nice fattys if I decide to run some later 😂
Man that stripped down heaps quick..... she is naked.... lol
Very quick!! Had the whole car stripped in about a day 😂 hopefully it will be just as quick to get dressed again 😂
Can't wait for progress video
Thanks mate! I’m hoping to be posting videos more regularly from now on!
nice panda
Pandas for lyfe
Looks awesome man. Any thought on cutting out the whole rear and tubing it? Could send some pictures of mine for ideas. Adds alot of room and strength.
Yeah that’s the plan mate. Some nice big and thick wheel tubs to catch all of the rubber and belts instead of smashing the guards again! Yeah if you could! Photos would be sweet. Cheers
that’s gonna be an awesome skid pig.....Corolla virus haha love it and the manga girlies. It’s gonna Mang hard .... My suggestion on a name Flamin’Manga or Burnolla lol
Haha yeah mate! It’s a beast. It needs a lot of work but it’s a pretty good base to build a pretty mental little tyre killing machine. Needs some panel work and a killer paint job 😉 I don’t mind the Burnrolla.
@@almstlegalgarage definitely a good base with the running gear already done. Time to make it look the part. Burnrolla does have a ring to it...lol
Yeah exactly! Some nice big tubs. A lot of bodywork and then a sick paint job! Now I just gotta come up with what I want it to look like and stick to it 😂 keen as a bean
Sounds tough, got a nice tone..... light her up haha number plate is a nice touch
Not bad for a stock LS1 hey! Straight through twin 2 1/2 inch system gives it a really crisp note! 👌🏻 It does lay a nice skid tho 😂
Cool car with the usual 90s sunburn damage lol
The old clear coat wasn’t up to the job in the 90’s unfortunately 😂
@@almstlegalgarage my old VR had it bad
My poor vx has it too unfortunately. That harsh SA UV 😂
Alex sent me over 😀👍 love the tonners
Ahh yeah your the bloke that may be interested in doing some custom touches to the Rolla? That’s awesome! Yeah the tonner was a cool project we did a few years ago for a customer
@@almstlegalgarage Yeah would be a fun project to work on 😀👍
That’s wicked! makes me want to get working on it even more!
Great work man cant wait to see some more from this beast.
Cheers mate! More is on the way!
Did you have to swap the subframe? Or did you just get the v8 mounts and it goes straight in?
Blake Vella thanks for the comment! Just using the v8 mounts it fit straight in the factory 6cyl chassis. No modifications necessary
