- The Aussie Ford Barra six is continually reaching new heights in performance. Nem’s FPV F6 street car recently became the first FG Falcon to run into the 7-second zone. The car still retains an IRS rear end and surprisingly many factory stock engine internal parts. We caught up with Michael from QuickBitz for an inside view on what it took to achieve this impressive milestone.

Does this mean when you say 2k barra can run 8's and you have that bloke laughing straight afterwards you won't be playing that anymore?
I think you owe that toothless, wheezing Mexican at least 2k by now.
We will play that forever 😆
Didn't Dion from DMP's FG run a 7 first?
Is it legal to run a cage on the street ?
Biggest surprise here, the maccas ice cream machine actually working.
That was him too...
Hahahhahahahha
Nice work to all involved. No trash talk, no excuses, no drama. Some of the other shops and car owners should take note. Congrats to Nemz
I agree mate, he doesnt claim to know everything and admits that there were mistakes along the way.
Refreshing for sure. Educational and humble. This would be a race team I’d get involved with.
This guy is like a mad barra professor, love his energy his the type of guy that would work 18 hours straight before remembering that he hasn't eaten since breakfast, maybe that's why they call him sticks, would love to send him my fg and say all yours do what you have to do.
Michael is one of the best in Melbourne. And not trying to upsell shit that is not needed and putting money where it is needed. Pretty rear these days.
I WOULD TAKE MY FALCON THERE FOR SURE SEEMS LIKE A GENUINE FELLA
He must work-out?
Yeah this guys is very honest not trying to sell you the best of the best to take your money wish there was more shops in Sydney like that
What shops this mate?

*Clip posted 52 minutes ago* and says its a beasty Barra motor... What a great way to wake up on a Sunday morning, and I'm a Holden guy.
@Robert Marks Sorry, relevance?
Absolute legit street 7 sec car. Great achievement to all involved. Aussie 6cyl ingenuity is unparalleled
Not every state allows a cage? I think most states dont, so hard to call it a streeter
it blows my mind that you guys are at 400k, i dont know how you guys aren't at or above TRC or 1320 in terms of subs. I find myself watching this channel more than either of those other 2.
Australia, 23 million people
USA 330 million
That’s why
They'd need one of those clickbait thumbnails.. 2 0 0 0 H P!
Americans struggle with stuff that doesn't have pushrods.
@@bigcncguy So? Im an American. Is fullboost supposed to be restricted to australians only or? Lol
@@mark7457 lmao that is very true! I hate the click bait bs.
As an American I'm in love with this car.
They are a great vehicle. They really stuffed up when they decided to not sell them in the US.
I've always said to mates that like you guys did with the GTR's I reckon these things will be taken over to the states when the age is right for your import /registration rules...
@@malsmith2012 they'd be super expensive and getting parts,,,time.
@@benwalker4660 not really when you see their dollar value plus the fact the amount of car guys over there that have money, real wealth, they'll snap them up.. Plus you can get parts in a few days..
@@malsmith2012 on the proviso 'don't crash or smash them' as parts for F6 specific are hard to come by . Although as a Sunday car in america it would attract allot of looks- not in Ford America price list. Its hard finding stock BF FG genuine parts and FPV specific is even harder. 1000 bucks for a traction control module just as a example- and rare...you won't get them in a few days maybe a month. Ford had to look for them and old stock needs finding...3rd oarty retailers are good and bad...
I love how he's used the stock crank, girdle, valves to make this power using so much OEM Ford Australia parts. Ozzie power! Love it Bonza!
3k 7 sec barra
Ha, yep was thinking Sloppy when Kal was talking about why are they upgrading stuff that isn't a problem.
And the body isn't a feather weight 4,000lb.
New meme right there...
God damn these Barra's don't need much mods to make them a certified weapon 😍
Probably the most informative interview of a tuner in relation to the barra/falcon I've seen! The information just kept coming, no bull just facts! Great work!
An everyday driver that can run sevens and still retains the stock interior that's amazing
Sticks reminds me of Frank from Dandy.. There's a great sense of honesty and integrity about him, you just know he'd be the guy to treat you, your car and your money with respect and honesty.. Genuine to a fault.. Fantastic job Sticks if I was in Melbourne I know where I'd be going for my performance work.. 👌👍
Frank's Barra Compound Turbo....
Great to see local businesses here in Oz. Love this guys knowledge & enthusiasm. Ford's AU IRS is still the best in my opinion. Being an older driver, I've always preferred V8's for torque & sound. I still prefer V8s sound but the performance of these 6's cannot be denied.
I agree, I had an au 3 vct xr6 with the a arm rear suspension. I now have an fgx turbo and I strongly believe that the au handled way better hands down
Impressive power for a unported head , factory crank & block well done
Stock turbo is usually the restiction in turbo cars.
To get a 7 second pass pulling that ridiculously heavy car is insane, take 300-400kg of it would definitely be in the 6’s
@Paul Cuckastein was enjoying reading the comment section till I reached yours, your clueless wokey fork
Michael from Quickbitz is clearly passionate about his work and knows hit sh*t
This guy was really good, very knowledgeable and explained everything great, well done to him and his team on the F6
This blokes a master of his craft
That’s insane Aussie workmanship.. keep up the awesome work
Proper set of wheels. Tesco shopping and baby seat. Really good problem solving, learning from time. Well done folk. Nice.
Love STIX such a top bloke!!! Best tuning shop around possibly the country! Great video guys the dirty moustache is classic
What shop is it?
@@POLITICALYCORRECTify Quickbits
This guy is awesome. I can't believe how good this car is.
Everyone in the tuning industry should revel in this. It should give them inspiration to harder and higher.
I think you dropped a word. Get.😉
I can hear this guy talk all day.
Very knowledgeable man.
man your guys are the most real in the WORLD!!!!!
REAL PEOPLE!!!!
Very knowledgeable, great advice. The car speaks for itself record holding and record breaking.
7 second street car on Ford Falcon Barra it just Beautiful Bloody Killer mate wow I'm Very happy and Proud Ford Falcon FAM here in Auckland
Best full boost video I've ever watched! Hell best car video total.
These Ford Barra engines are so impressive. I’m currently looking for an old 80’s Toyota Corolla shell to engine swap and turn into a drag car for a weekend hobby. I’m turning 34 and my partying days are well behind me, time for a hobby to keep me busy lol. The engine swaps I’m considering are the Barra, Rotary engine or 2JZ. My father use to drag race rotary engines. The amount of power they’d be able to put down with those tiny little engines was absolutely preposterous 😂
Best Ford for the street ever, I LOVE it! Go off man
I love seeing it give the other cars a head start and still catch them hahaha
Calling it a cab is a compliment, basically saying it will still be going at 800,000km
Nice guy and very clever, also good to hear him plug the mighty tb48 Nissan. Go to UAE to get an eye full of horsepower.
Hopefully there are Barra's around for many years to come.
Always sweet to hear a clevo cruise past these days.
Great video, regards Steve.
Sticks seems like a nice bloke very natural persona and grounded. Huge respect!!
Ford is amazing, the 4.6 Teksid is another work of art that is capable of huge numbers with factory block, heads and crank. I wish we had the Barra in the states, l have a 72 Torino with a strait six that is begging for a Barra. I'm broke, it will never happen.
These videos & Barra engine will be the reason I visit Australia!
Making big power with stock head deserves respect
Take notes Haltech, inputs from dash are broadcast to ecu via can! Need this for the elite series ecu!
$3500 dash vs $1300 dash
haltech = apple
@@dragpix shots fired lol
@@DATONALKY I mean it in the nicest possible way lol
Links better
What a bloody cool guy. He really makes sense.
Honey, I put a new exhaust on the Falcon, Happy Mother's day! 😂
Fantastic quickbitz!
fastest full street car 4cyl in the world (Silvia s15 7.42s 1/4 mile) and great work in this car.
What is impressive is the size of the car family sedan.
My favorite thing and on my birthday too. Thanks guys.
That is very nasty!! In a good way! I would love to do a Barra swap in my 71 chevelle lol that would definitely hurt alot of feelings lol lmao
Do it, there pretty cheap
You would definitely tick off the Chevy purists.. But then again they've been putting garbage under the hood of great ford cars for years..
Go for it Man
Great vid well done to all involved amazing what Barra’s can do when built correctly and have the right power management 🙌 always loved this car great job nemz👌
Love the mo stix 😉
This guys an absolute weapon, seen a heap of cars go to his shop from other shops and go much quicker
Whats his shop named?
@@russellcameron9035 Quickbitz
Fkn 👌🏻. I think I need one of those 2k Barra stickers for my shitbox!
I'm looking forward to seeing your new motor on the dyno
Same here dude
The barra breadbox millsi
hopefully 2k barra guy was entertained, RIP Spanish comedian Juan Joya Borja, whose infectious laughter brought him global fame, has passed away aged 65.
Fark!!! beers up 🍻
We got a new king anyways.. see above comment!
A Mentor, what a engine build prescription, hope to get the same number on my R32 Barra!!
I've watched this video probably 20 times start to finish. So much great info and great presenters too. Would love more build videos with sticks 😍
As impressive as the FG falcon is (pure excellence from everyone involved), and the level of intelligence possessed by sticks... its very difficult to take my eyes away from the polished concrete done by grindworks!! #evilgq
The most redeeming feature about this mod is that no headlight was sacrificed for air intake.
The guy talking about this car is awesome👍
This was a great video. No more needs to be said. Thanks guys
Sheesh, this Guy makes this Cars technology interesting and easy to understand
What an amazing achievement. Love this.
Love those F P V's!!Too bad we didn't get them here in the States!! Anyway, great video!!👍👍🤟🤟🇺🇸🇺🇸
Wow! This is science, very good job. Nice video, enjoyed it very much, thanks
this will smash any exotic dream car by far.
Who remembers stix’s Corolla back in the early 2000s?
Man is there anything sticks doesn't know?? what a dude
love it .......an Aussie cab on the same level as an American twin turbo Mustang
Good video , Good talk , and lots of info .... thank you .
These where a good car even when they where stock , here i am in 2023 ..... nearly 2024 , ford/holden/toyota manufacturing all been gone from australia for some years now ..... very sad indeed .
Not to mention many other spin off company's from the motor industry also gone by the wayside .
My god the barra is a legend.
wow i love the barra's excelent interview well done
Awesome video guys, love seeing the ingenuity of only using what is necessary to really get the most of things whilst keeping it so street spec. I really rate this, and I'm an LS lover :P
These engines are amazing. p.s. love that honeycomb hood underside.
Great video again boys and he seemed really honest about the car great to see
Don't wanna cut up the front of the car for intercooler , but running cage and full fuel system in boot full of holes to make it work 🤣
Either way 7sec Barra top notch guys
Sounds like those intake and exhaust manifolds need to go back into production..
When you run Fueltech you don’t need cam to talk dash with ecu and etc... everything in one ☝️ unit!
Awesome vid. Would love to see more of quick bits stuff
Absolute Weapon 💪🔥
Blokes a legend
True 7 secound street car , well done to all involved
What I would love to see these guys do is integrate a 4r200 front hub (front planetary being a massive weak point replaces with a billet one piece) with 6r80 internals which effectively turns the gear ratios of the zf into th400 ratios with a 4th gear .63 plus lockup. Such a badass car, love my fg turbo
I like this guys thinking, KISS and gets great results cool build, Holden guy loving the mighty BARRA cheers from NSW
Michael should be an actor and would be the perfect Cliff Curtis and Jean Reno hybrid
just seen nemz has got himself a billet crank
Bloody awesome love the barra.
“Barra eats turbo for breakfast” Wicked!
You have visited McDonald’s, it makes it a true street car now lol. Beautiful car
far out this guy hes gona single handedly bring back the street barras and commodores with simple mods but making lots of power and street 8 to 10 seconds street cars. currently theres heaps of ppl with these vehicles in stock form. he just gave the secret to make loads of usable power
Great video! Interesting tech, shop talk and drive to Mecca's 😃
I love this video! One of your best!
Good old Sth Dandy life love it !!!!
All that power and only cost 2k nice Barra is the best
Barras are the best engine in Australia and built in Australia for a $200 motor from the wreckers
A car set up for the drags is a "street car"
As long as you..
Don't go round corners fast
Don't try stop in a hurry
Don't like your back.
Don't park it anywhere because parts are going missing.
Don't want to go on a long drive,
Atomic performance hated this ❤
Nem, is that his name? He talks sense. I have under graduate and post graduate qualifications in maths and physics. Nem is is up there in my opinion.
Nems is the owner of the car, Michael 'Stix' is in the video
You guys should cut one loose in the states!
Mostly stock is bloody brilliant. but how many 7sec passes will it have in it??? Hopefully alot..
This shit is sexy AF and I can only imagine how extremely fun it is to drive and those T-shirts Barra says fuck your LS that's a great statement !!
Up the bobbins b double at 6:09!!
Such a detailed video great work
Awesome video today guys thanks.
What a great build
