Man I love these street tests! Owning something built by Tom would be incredible!
G'day Mate, The entire build is fucking sick. When the turbos spool, even though you're not able to stay on it for long stretches, the sound is absolutely wicked crazy!!! You all did one hell of a job, turning a stock Camaro into an absolute beast, while retaining the stock look! Cheers from Western Australia!
I don't get bored watching this video over and over. This car is going to a great guy and built by a great crew.
THANKS TOM!!! Some of the BEST 28 minutes I ever spent in my life!
I have to have one like this what a bad ass piece of artwork!! Great job NRE
NRE makes some of the coolest cars that are both functional for daily drivers and racing beasts. When I finish college in some years I pray that you guys are still doing this because when I get some money coming in I will be dropping a car off and I want you to do the motor down to the rear suspension. Good work guys, you never fail to amaze me!
Excellent work bending all the oil and coolant lines just so. It's the little things.
WOW! Also the fact that you still get excited over smokey burnouts...I love it!
Looks like you raised the bar again.
HOW can you not like/love this, i am by no means a chevy guy, ford all day baby but this is one sick chevy i would not want to mess with. Mad love for your work nelson.
GREAT VIDEO, Can't Wait till I hit the Mega-Million!!!!!
Still the kings of horsepower. Keep it up NRE!
Simply mind boggling! Great Work team Nelson!
Legal ver outros brasileiros contemplando a obra de arte do Sr Nelson.
this car is a masterpiece and nothing short of it......it takes real art, engineering, and wanting to do plain and simple the job right the first time. real sacrifice and work, great job,
You defiantly need your own piece of land with a test track like Hennessy.It's scary watching you drive with cross roads everywhere when some idiot could pull in front of you
Some idiot can pull out in front of you anywhere at any time. They're building street cars. Not race cars. Being able to make sure they handle right on the STREET is part of it. Start building test tracks and shit like that and costs go through the roof and the next thing you know your cars a million bucks a pop like Hennessey. Not to mention California is a LITTLE DIFFERENT than Texas in terms of REAL ESTATE PRICES.
Amazing job NRE!
sure looks like you build the best. thanks for posting your videos.
always at another level.... insane build
an amazing work of art coming from a mustang driver the attention to detail is amazing to see.
I haft to say you are the man when it comes to building a car.
WOW... once again Nelson Racing Engines comes thru... good work guys.. that mother is BAD!!!
The quality of craftsmanship on NRE cars is incredible....I have never seen better. A little over the top for a street car ? Maybe.... Fun ?....You better believe it, mang....
If, or when I do get rich, I'll be giving you a call Nelson. Beautiful work!
real good vid...you guys have to be the best becouse i dont see how it could be done any better thanks for the vids
So many people keep saying why build a car that has no traction and cant use the power. I just wanna say, did you even watch the whole video? The part where he tubed the rear end so you can fit big tires in the back. Of course your not gonna take it to a track with street tires. He is just having fun and showing/testing the car. Once the owner has it, it will probably have at least a wide radial tire for the street.
Awesome work guys sickest Camaro ever built...keep smoking those tires
I love the attention to detail!
I was actually tearing up because of how amazing that motor looks!
Absolutely amazing car.....the only thing I’m not sure about is the shifter but other than that a truly one of a kind….. Great job!!
VERY NICE JOB MR NELSON
Love that car. Great job
"Like a friggin jet rocketship" Well said, Tom.
Just saw this car at the car meet at the local barnes and nobel, nice car.
craftsmanship of these guys is unbelievable. If only stuff like this would be legal in here shithole europe, US car industry would not need more bail outs.
amazing video
damn. not only is it 1500hp, it's pushing that power smoothly through the whole rev range. thing is a rocket ship
Such a beautiful machine
That camera angle from the rear bumper always gets me!! It seems like every time I see these videos with that camera angle it seems fake cause of how it distorts and how damn fast these things are! Great build!
Big job for big block !!! And it sounds great !!! Big thanks for the vid !!! ;-)
another beautiful car that preforms just as good as it looks
aww man I've watched this video a million times, one day when I get a camaro I would want a hook up bro. of course some time in a few years bcuz I'm 15 at the moment but will be looking forward for this set up. btw this is the engine I want too. (NRE Twin Turbo BBC hot rod series)
lol... the most impressive thing about the video was the skill of the driver, he has already proven himself to be one of the best, if not the best, engine builders/fabricators in the world... my dream car will have one of his engines in it... and if he would have had a mishap, he WOULD have been the first, cause there is only one in the world like it! and he happened to build it... make a vid of you driving yours with two hands!
awesome vid
My favorite build!!!
i love how this is normal figures for street driving for you guys.
Only a man who loves what he does says "I love this shit" !!
you sir are a sick man, lol. that is the baddest camaro i have seen.
Whoa, love it.
Yes. I just left out the power lost associated with spinning the turbo as it is relatively very small. It could possibly be made up in relieving vacuum (see below).
Like you said, when you are off throttle with a turbo, it is able to cruise like a stock car and get great mileage. Additionally, the turbo produces just a slight amount of boost when cruising (they never stop). This boost eliminates the vacuum the engine creates to pull in new air/fuel. So it improves efficiency.
Fantastic.
One word awesome!!!!!!
Just when I thought I was really doing something throwing 750 horse into a NA 2nd gen...
Inspiration comes from NRE. Quality fit, finish and function. (not that the F Bomb wasn't already on my mind, but...) this is just some awesome fab work, all the way around.
You should have your own primetime show!
all those different camera angles remind me of playing Driver games on ps1 back in the day
Wonderful
barath4545: Thank You!!
Didn't see notice that - Ever. I must admit, all of his videos are jaw droppers!!
Good point. that car has all nice electronics. It must have a bunch of precautions built in. things have changed in 14 years from when I had my ken Duttweiler grand national.
this car is exquisite.
This thing owns the streets!
that camaro is a nice piece of art
nelson will need to pay his tickets if local pd see this video...go to the track nelson buy a lil land make your track or somethin.....wicked clean work..
Holy shit what a beautiful build. Monster!!
That thing is fucking fierce. Looks awesome as well. Everything on that car is a work of art. Muscle car masterpiece?
Thanks man!
you must be the best builder in the world.
Pure aWesomeness!!!
muito bom esse cara
At first I was laughing the intro music.. then... I completely forgot about it and started wanting the car.
goood work
i have tears of sensual joy. and yes boostedHTCEVO....this is borderline.
Awesome!!! manual gearbox in this and its the dream!!
Hey Tom, how often on the street do you think you'll need that extra boost.LOL
You sir are the master!!!
Seems like...maybe its just the way he launched it...but it seems to be sluggish when he first gets down on it. Once the turbos get to fully whinning out its a beast. I would love to see it with decent tires though. What a beautifully crafted car. Guys who put that together should be proud as hell. It is truely a Beast of a car !
Just to add to your explanation, turbo chargers do use power to turn them as they are a restriction in the exhaust, and create huge back pressure, however, it robs a lot less than a supercharger. Also a supercharger is creating boost at all times, and a turbo is only making boost when the engine is under load, making it possible for these things to cruise around like a stock car, which is why they can get 20+ mpg just driving around.
i like how everyone suddenly took a "smoke break" to come watch haha
do you guys sell those shifters like that in reverse valve body im really interested in one for a th400
This is like watching a Space Shuttle launch.... :-)
I love it !!!
BAD ASS! I want one.
Nelson's best!
i like your rear camera mount. parachute mount! :P
baddest new camaro I have seen yet!
Awesome. Wow.
I would do a burn-out every time i'd pass a prius and leave them in a cloud of smoke lol!
This is the stuff DREAMS are made of.....
Awesome car, I love american muscles, Stell Beast !!!!
Your a BAD man Nelson :)
awsome car
Any videos of this thing at the track with some proper tires? Can't seem to find any videos on it.
i love this car
You guys build some of the baddest shit I have seen. I always wanted a twin turbo vette, but I want one of your twin turbo motors in a custom awd silverado. make a crazy sleeper.
oh how I would love to have that car!
Best Camaro ever, I know if I had a Camaro I would let yall do all the engine work. I've seen Hennesey Racing Camaros and those other performance shops and let me tell yall that yall blow them out the water and yall do the best builds. Chevy for life that car would blow any mustang out the water, Ford just wish they had something for Chevy when it comes to racing but they don't and never will, yall need to bring that Camaro down to Crusing the Coast in Biloxi, Miss
I just got goosebumps
i want one so bad, i love the new camaros
damm i love it.. if i ever win the lotto.. your the first place i am going shopping...
Hi, good afternoon, you guys are selling this kit for the camaro rs 2015 v6? I need at least 1000 hp
I already have the suspension kit of the Z26 isntalado plus the brake kit of the ZL1 now it is prepared to receive all the necessary power
How much for that set up? And what kind of trans and shifter is that? So is that a standard trans or Auto with a slapshift?
No one but NRE could create such a thoroughly detailed, front to back badass drivable work of art...
Tom, if you read this... Do you have or ever plan to have a race team? Of any sort/sport...? If so I'd love to follow it!
u know most people like to go to California to see Hollywood, but the HELL with that the next time I can AFORD to go to California I am going to find your shop to see all the cool toys you build!!
