While in Darwin we got to check out Danny Probert's brand new XD Falcon Drift car. This beast is running a 4L XR6 turbo engine which is dry sumped, Triple plate MANTIC Clutch, GSR G force dog box and a custom in house rear end which Danny will soon have on the market for all your FORD lovers.
If you would like to get in touch with Danny please

What a Work Of Art. This is how our Auto Industry should have been like, with innovation, ingenuity and sincerity , .Instead of wasting funds , with overpaid high rockies producing out dated cars that nobody really wanted and finally packing up and shutting doors. This XD looks unreal .
So glad you got to interview Danny and get a look at XDRIFT! I've been following his build for awhile now and it looks top notch. Time to catch up on all your other videos I haven't had a chance to watch yet!
Yeah he is an awesome bloke. Cant wait to see the car in action at WTAC this year.
I got plenty more videos to come hey.
Wow that is the best Xd I have seen and what a build ,well done !!
it looks mean with that kit on it.
2👍 up on the build mate. A work of art
Wow the paint and body kit is awesome
This was a big throw back. Thanks for bringing it up mate
Awesome to see IRS kits being developed for early model falcons!
Yeah it is, Danny is unlocking all the potential out of these cars
Great to see you're still Playing and having fun Danny! 👍
Danny is still making big moves mate
you can do that rear end into an e series, you need to cut the wattslink mounts out and put the rear irs mount in, everything else bolts up, including the stock tailshaft and au struts
I know absolutely nothing about these cars hey
@@DriftSquid all ways room to learn something new 💪
The squid character on your shirts would be cool!
I used to have them. But don't have any stock left.
That's one neat XD. It's too nice to even put on a track !
Look forward to the drift video.
Well done Danny. Superb job there !
Ill find out about some more footage soon
Loved seeing this at RCN04 in Alice Springs. Awesome machine.
Really well thought out Rocket Ship built to perfection.Love the Greens Tuff body kit also.Good bunch of blokes to go with,best wishes boyz
Thanks for the kind words mate
Absolutely Wicked fabrication and beautiful detail!!!!!!!! Damn good work!
Danny has done damn well. Cant wait to get a video for you all of it Drifting
Very very nice. I have a huge passion for these. My first car was XD and then had couple of them and XE's since.
Wow it won the comp on looks alone what a beaut.
Keep up the great content my man.. love seeing some Aussies smashing about in there cars
Cheers William, im doing my best
I am impressed with the rear suspension, but I'd really like to know more about the front, and the steering...
XB / XC falcs were, (strangely) not too bad. The XD got a completely new body design and it was a lot lighter. With leafspring rear and recirculating ball front, 17 turns lock to lock, it was horrible.
The EL had a Watt's Link rear, and a rack in the front, and that first one wasn't exactly great, but it was a hundred times better than anything before it. But a stock XD Falcon was just about safe in a funeral procession. Commodores of the same vintage were no different, but the fault there was completely different. Falcons had brakes. C'dores had something that looked like a disk brake, but... C'dores of that time were a lot of fun to drive, but they'd stop once. Then you'd better not want to stop again for a few minutes... Yes, I was a taxi driver from '84 ~ '88 and then again in the late '90s, I've got a real good idea what the original cars were like...
Compare to later, a series 2 or 3 AU Falcon needs one thing the be a great drift car, and that's a slipper. That's not just XR6 and stuff, even the standard cheapo car (taxi) is excellent to drive sideways. I had a LOT of fun in AU Falcons....
Wow the fab work is insane. Such a awesome build fellas thanks for sharing
Don't thank me, thank Danny for building the crazy beast.
Best Ford I've ever seen!
barra sixes turboed are the ducks nuts. I've had some bad ass mustangs and Fairlanes and shoebox chevys and customlines but my son's turbo 4 liter falcon blows them to the weeds
I will admit they are pretty wild.
I'm not even a Ford fan, and this thing is gorgeous. Love the boxy 80's stuff. Almost too nice to risk drifting it, but it isn't my car hahaha.
Thats it hey, Im not a ford fan but I can respect what Danny has done here. Its awesome
you love the boxy look? you're in the minority..the XD is 31 years old, yet they cant be given away for free.
XDs are one of the my favourite Falcons.
this one is mental
@@DriftSquid Put a Repco through it and see what happens 🤣🤣
@@chuckselvage3157 what's a repco? Haha
@@DriftSquid 🤣
Love the XD also 👌
This thing is awsome. I love it
Danny would appreciate that mate. Ill try and get some drift footage from him soon
Wicked. Wish I still had the zh. Made it handle ok but always dreamed of a bolt in irs setup + 5 speed. Have a manual edxr6 now rolling resto...
The AU IRS was a massive improvement/upgrade from my previous EF XR6 solid rear end when I bought the Falcon S in 99. The car felt so stable especially at speed compared to the EF! Pity they had lsd chatter issues at the time which wasn't a safety issue but more an annoyance especially after ripping skids lol.
Brettus The AU IRS was miles better than the heap of shite put in the later Falcons too. I should know too, having just paid to replace all the effing bushes in my FG, & there is still some bloody clunking noise coming from it. If not the AU set up, give me the old live axle any day, simpler, lighter, cheaper, &, above all, STRONGER!
@@jasonmcmillan4373 No the newer version from BA on is heaps better again. A lot of power also is why the AU IRS had little issues apart from the lsd chatter. Mine seemed worse than others but it was supercharged also!
My BA turbo was good though but my F6X seems to need something replaced every time I drive it... Lol
Bloody rippa of a machine Mate!!!
Cheers Mick
Use to watch greens tuff as a kid, owned an x-d s pack and a xe 302 wagon, have a xr6 ecolpi, those late barras are a cut above, with the wide track on the xd, should drift better than an narrow tracked 80s corola or stick it up the silvias
That was a great interview been following this build from New Zealand and can't wait to see how he goes in the drift challenge at World Time Attack at Sydney. Want reliable power with huge torque and able to get some good power can't go past the Barra motor maybe time to put one into the Sonvia Jake :P
Yeah Danny has done an awesome job on this. I dont think I will ever go the Barra route, oil pumps on them would hate me im sure of it.
Ill stick with my RB's, just need to dry sump all mine thats all haha
Can't wait to see this car slideways
Me also
Sucks we don’t get any falcons in the usa ! Love the content
Thanks mate, there is millions here hey haha
Yeah mate the old falcons over here go for over $100000, the genuine gt ones. That's why people are importing more American muscle to Australia as you probably already know. The American muscle cars are classy and tough too.
Falcon sprint?
Falcon Sprints were 60s US models not sold in AUS
They’ve been selling sprint falcons here since early 90’s fool
Nice nice. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
B is for BARAAAAAAA
Love these motors they sure do boogie
Yeah they have so much grunt, got a mate in QLD with one in an R33.
The United States.....where we can't get cool Fords like this or original recipe Coca-Cola. WTF?! Beautiful car!
I love this car
She is a ripper.
Bloody nice !
I remember watching this beast at Hidden Valley years ago when it was v8 powered..... best sounding drift car on track!!
It had an LS didn't it? Couldn't have been the best sounding, pretty well impossible for an LS
Nah jake it was ford v8. There is a forum build on this car some where goes forever it had all weird steering and hours of fab work... This is like the v2 build
build-threads.com/build-threads/xdrft2-xd-falcon-drifter/
Starring rack back then pulled from a rod one side !
I was told it was a 408 stroker back in the day... sounded way better than the sr20"s and RB's fangin about...
Bloody great job but no smoking
haha
Lets hear it running already
Coming soon
Awesome stuff
Love how hes just casually "only chasing 450kw" out of a stock internals 6cyl =D
haha Danny yeah he just knows what he can get out of them I guess. Such a top bloke
Easy when you start with stock 310kw. A standard f6 motor would be dandy in a road car!
Wish I never sold my XD 302. Had it up to 240kmh when I was in the Pilbara(mild cam, Vac sec, C4 & Borg 2.92) Slow off the mark but boy did it wind up! Another gentleman I met years latter who was in Tom Price(I believe) had a XD 351 which would do 300kmh! Don't doubt, as he owns speed shop in Perth now. I'm currently accumulating XD parts now for a XF retro build, Probably with an EF Windsor. Will possibly go for the same flare kit as this except for the front air dam as its a little low.
All the best with your build/resto Terry. Like hearing people talk about their car builds. Hope this has given you some motivation to get into it.
Built an XD years ago; 383ci, Jericho 4 speed that came out if a wrecked Foxbody Mustang, and full floater 9".
Once you got on the loud pedal in top, it was like warp speed
Where are you guys. Noticed he had a Darwin business shirt on. I miss home, not many places i can go play down here.
Correct Danny is based in Darwin and runs Darwin mobile Auto Care
Nice!
Love it .
im curious why the XD was chosen for this MAD build? personally i prefer the XE as it was my first car and loved it! gonna get another one day and probly do a barra swap lol
Hit up Danny, im sure he will explain it
Does dannys shop have any socials we can follow?
Cool setup
Yeah suss his insta @danny_probert81
In the UK they where called the Ford Granada and the specs where shite compared to Australia :-(
they looked similar externally but were a very very different car, the granada was a smaller car - Ford Aus based the original XD styling off the granada
NICE
Barra, amen
Love it
+blow0me it's going to be travelling Australia this year.
Mad
ness
now thats a sexy beast
Nice XD
Not bad hey
Very nice.... drift car,
Are you going too really drift a masterpiece...😬😦 please dont hurt it.
Danny will look after it dont worry
The Aussie car scene...where everything isn't swapped with a Vale eating piston ring killing primitive ass push rod turd LS shit box. This is what's up !
haha I need more thumbs up for this!!!
I do hate seeing LS's swapped into everything, but there's a reason to why they're so popular. Compact size, low weight, readily available, many on the shelf performance parts, reliable and also capable of extremely high power figures. Hopefully one day I'll see more performance parts for barras but it'll be unlikely as they aren't really available outside of Australia and with Fords gone, no more barras will be made, unless a company starts making billet blocks for them or something of the sort.
From the 61 XA ??? XA is 72 on.
Nice build, luv it 👍
I myself have no clue mate
He said XK Falcon not XA. 1960 I think
Badass
i think MR Danny needs to relocate the brake fluids in to other location. or make a bit more heat resistence , becouse its realy near the turbo and it may catch on fire :X
other things looks realy buetifull :)
He will see this and more then likely take action. He is yet to pedal it so all the help is appreciated. Thank you
The exhaust is all ceramic coated And heat wrapped to help keep bay temps down
TAXI!!
talk to the drift pig drivers and they swear by the old borg warner over IRS lol
Danny should put a tb48 in there! 🙌
What is this tb48 everyone talks about?? haha
@@DriftSquid it's the rbs big brother lol. 4.8lt straight 6 that comes in a nissan patrol. They have them making 1khp over in the middle east in 6k lb SUVs. It makes the barra look like a baby lol. It's a beast.
@@clutchkickpj693 ohhhh those monsters hahahaha
@@DriftSquid check out Evil GQ on Facebook
Drift squid what is the name of this song legend 🤷
Its all from Epidemic Sounds mate
Thanks Jake finally found it 🙌 awesome content mate hopefully get to run some laps with you at Raleigh in the future 🤞
Are repco shafts good? I need some decent ones :(
Im sure they would be mate, Danny has been rocking the old falcons for awhile
I like the falcons compared to the new falcons
Fark I cannot wait to see it run !
💦💦💦
Ill be doing another video then for sure
Price for kit please mate
Sorry mate I have no info on the kit
did he say an f6 motor with an fg xr6 n/a head on it? lmao why
Danny does what Danny wants. There would be a reason behind all his madness. He is a bloody good egg
Whats the name of the colour? looks unreral.
No idea sorry mate
what brand of body control module is it?
Pretty sure Danny said it in the video didn't he?
Dale Saward it sounded like he said HP but I can’t find them online
Ill try find out for you
Just do everyone knows haha Danny is deaf, so he's not ignoring Prior, he simply can't hear him lol
+Samwise Locke daniel wasnt speaking very loud either. Just sounds like he was because he was right next to my camera.
@@DriftSquid I worked with Danny for years, Inc on XDRIFT, I know how deaf he is lol
And i don't really speak loud enough sometimes so makes for a bad combination haha
#hoonigan
How many ponies?
Tuning is currently happening right now and its first event is OCT 12th and 13th.
falcon sounds better than escort or orion lol
Its a crime not having a Clevo 351 in it
hahahahaha
And do we get to hear it or see it drift? Nah
That will come soon enough. Its only just been built
Taxi pack,
haha
Awesome car but take that body kit off it looks not so good
Nothing wrong with the Group A/Phase V kit, man.
@@atomicmillenial9728 each to there own but xd's look better with no body kit and dumped with a custom made alloy drop tank hanging down from the back off it
Ford drift car? 😩
missing two cylinders mate
6 is the way to go haha
only if your poor
Trying to look like (holden big banger) Google it.
No it's looking like a group C falcon.
Yea true that m8..a very kooool lookin group c falcon
The group c v8s were an are the the big bangers Clinton.dick Johnson racing tho 4 me..go the falcon🤘
...yawn
Way to ruin a nice old car.....
Sincerely, a Ford fan.
