"It would be sick if it'd burn off that mo." - Al
"If you were making 1000hp you'd be throwing shit everywhere, too."
"Needs a catch can. My car throws 2L in the tin every pass."
Plenty of great quotes this week boys haha nice work.
kin hell Woody last week it was looking like Freddie Mercury this week Charles Bronson 😂🤣🤷🏻♂️ come on pick one already 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Try using the Haltech's PWM thermo fan driver mode and a solid state relay so you can soft start the SPAL fan. I did this for well over 2 years and had no issues with fuses.
Yes that is a good option also.
Respect for Dave and the Skid Factory.
I understand Dave, I have learned everything by myself on my bikes but I would never touch an engine. He is a brave man.
Martin Kadlec ikr. I made so many mistakes learning about cars 🤣 I’m not brave enough to go inside of the engine yet tho. Dave ftw
Keep em coming boys, needing plenty to watch in NZ during lockdown 👍😃
1000hp twin turbo vks getting tuned by dudes in thongs. God I love Australia.
It's pretty inspirational stuff 😄
Health and safety? Who are they?
@@mitch2839 What is wrong with thongs?
Most people prefer underwear that doesn't climb into their arse....
@@theskidfactory nothin man only true Aussies have the thong tan
Imagine how many hp it would make on an American dyno😂
sam johnson ur fuckin funny!!!
Probably makes about 1875,9hp on dynojet 😂
Bruh ur wrong turbo cars make 2 grand or more
Times it by 3
when i saw the laptop i was like: PAGE UP!! PAGE UP!! PAGE UP!!
You mean swipe left kiddo.
With the toe 🤣
@@ShainAndrews .. no he means page up .. it's a skid factory / tuning fork joke

"jumpers don't have a hood" :)
Pre order done
Done. Good website setup guys payment options etc smooooth
What is Allied Performance Projects?
Is it possible to put a subaru ez36 h6 fit in a subaru impreza 2008 and would the 4wd system still work?
That dyno flex... niiice. Woody rocking the humpty dumpty look... weird!
enjoying the music during dyno !!!
The angry noises that thing made while on the pipe were epic!
Can't wait to get my Allied Shirt!
Love the anti-possum bolts in the exhaust pipe.
Woody's Channeling some serious "Full Metal Jacket" Vibe there. Holy Jesus! What is that? What the f-ck is that?! What is that, Pvt. Pyle?!" Nice work as always Guys, You should be Proud of what you've achieved with the VK. Cheers.
Woody mate you look 20 years younger with the haircut 😂
Yeah he could go hit the clubs again if they were open
Yet somehow 40 years older with the stash
Cheers for the next level love
Great result all round cant wait for this to be sent finally
Woody is starting to look like a "Woody" with that shaved head
He looks like a white Dave Chapelle.
I thought he looks Mexican
Olla muchassa it is I Woodwero lol
Bronson 😉😎
Time for a 4 link rear....break out the cutting tools.
That thing definitely had some squat and lean going on!
Vk: gets 911hp to the hubs “Should we message Dave and tell him it blew up?”😂 sneaky 911 joke
awesome video guys..
am only new to this channel and i find it very informative with zero bullshit. i like how Al talks to the camera and not at it.
it’s good how they take us punters along for the ride.
can someone tell me what Al’s background is as he seems an absolute wiz on the tools
Dave Earlier videos will give you plenty of background.
Michael Rouw cheers mate , appreciate it.
I love understanding how things work but more so drag along with the skill and knowledge of spanned men that make it all happen, that why I find this to be an awesome channel,. Just a couple of guys in a garage building horsepower ..
haha BOGANVK!! thing sounds mental great work boys!
How to tune rear suspension
1. Get a beefy swaybar, the heavier the better.
2. Use the adjustable upper bars to tune rear corner weights - scales are needed - eg: If it turns left adjust length of 1 bar to add 25kg to the left rear tyre, keep adjusting until it leaves straight. (suspension mounts may need seefing up too)
3. Get adjustable shocks all around.
It made 1000 HP and sounded beautiful doing it!
4:17 BOGANVK :-)
That name should help differentiate it from the other VKs
And 8:42 "bogan7.csv"
Dave's handle on the old forum we all met each other through was BoganDave.
@@theskidfactory That's even better, a "bogan" car in several senses, not just a description of it's nature!
Loving Woody's tribute to Max von Sydow and his iconic role as Ming the Merciless.
Smithers, didn't I tell that man to shave his sideburns?
ppfft the big shop brush, bring a shovel
Great Results. It's awesome to see your project come across the finish line without blowing parts on the ground. Great job as usual fella's. Really looking forward to seeing this beast on the track. He's gonna have his hands full but it's gonna be a blast. Nothing but smiles with a build like this.
Impressive build and Dyno results.
Well done all, and thanks for sharing.
Stay safe all.
"Done a pull on the dump pipe" Gold woody😂😂...
Fuckin top job Al, that’s some tough industrial sounding grunt. What a tank!!
Full respect mate. Never have I heard something as unique as that.
Keep building the V8’s please mate.
Hoodie ordered boys bound for Canada
Congrats guys. Hope dave is happy. I like him, not the greatest at building cars, does it anyway. That’s how you learn yo.
The VK is my absolute favorite car! I sat here watching with the biggest smile, one day ill have a VK that makes me moist. Cheers boys
Betty Bird 😝 @ moist.
If it makes you moist you're going to need a catch can or the boost rag gets wet. Now, going commando and omitting the boost rag is certainly also an option, but that puts proper traction at risk.
This vs Benny’s Cresta in the 1/4?
Cresta would annihilate it. Traction issues are main reason.
But Dave may create some insane rear end in his shed in a year and surprise everybody. Thumbs up for Dave!
Kevin the Weapon just lurking in the carpark haha. Ole Leroy runs a cable pump first time i had seen one, awesome bit of gear. Love the VK the extra holes do add character, great job as usual boys.
The fucken lean on that thing haha. Sweet build! Will be good to see more content as we’re just going into lockdown across the ditch. Hope ya’ll are doing allgood 🤙🍻
Solid result!
that is a bad ass car
So cool to see man. Excellent build. You guys are champs!
A good bit of that torque movement of the body could be managed by extending the roll cage into the engine compartment. That could provide a lot of stabilization down the track.
Keep rockin' that 'stache Woody.
So...Woody is hitting the karaoke bars for Hot Chocolate covers? I believe in miracles...
Cheers for the lockdown content lads 👌🏼
I pissed myself laughing when I saw 1000.1HP, Fuckn funny moment.
Wendy doing the finest broomhilda cameo as expected 👌
Fark that thing sounds cool !
I know y'all aren't number-chasers in the great scheme of things, but I'll bet it feels amazing to crest the 1,000 mark!
Nice shave woody. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great show lads, DAVE will need an anti roll bar for the rear, double adjustable shocks, and strong tubular arms. Adjustable shocks for the front as well so he doesn't do massive wheel stands and destroy the front end of his VK.
speedking72 it’s got Vyking double adjustable shocks and a single airbag in the right rear on the way. Might get an ARB roll bar later if it needs it.
That twist is sick! Violent powerrrr. Love it
Lookin' good Baldylocks!
Thats why they call him... Turbo Yodaaa!!!
Skid Factory and Nugget Garage together ?....what could possibly go wrong ?? :)
I would say it needs a beefy anti sway bar on the rear! Finnegan did that...
What would a fat sway bar do on its own on a dedicated drag car? Almost nothing beneficial.
@@EnkeiTenjin anti roll bar does wonders for body/diff movement on a drag car, literally every drag car making more than 500hp should be using one. The cars body will want to roll to the right whilst the diff is planted, anti roll bar setup counters it. you don't want to be planting more traction to one wheel due to weight shifting in the rear as the car will become unpredictable when launching, and could be dangrous.
“Everyone’s happy because it’s behaving itself “.... words of wisdom from Turbo Yoda 😂😂😂
I think i speak for all aussie men when i say,
WOODY, that WOMB-BROOM is on poooiiint!!!
I remember the day when 1000k hp was something people joked about having in a daily driver. Now, you're seeing 4 bangers that can crack 1200hp. It's amazing what you can do when you REALLY want to.
Liking the tunes bois
Al is so f@$&ing blunt straight up but wont screw about ..
A build and breif and nailed it to the point of .1 hp
Legend and wise yoda👍👍👍
13:15 Time to start working on your Crown, Al! 😉
That IAT is amazing. Bit of a weapon on the streets with stock suspension lol.
well done mates
That's badass! Great job
To Smug = Priceless!
Woody "even after a pull, this was still pretty cool"
That's a pretty epic number!
8:23 bruh he wasnt even filming :P
Hahaha I'm glad someone else caught that
He might have wanted to get a photo of the 1000hp run, I highly doubt anyone would film that close to the car as it does a run.
@@hammatime94 I would haha
I did film it but Woody was too slow so we stunt cocked it.
Check how.much fuel is being returned under full load, might be wise to turn the power down a bit
excellent channel and the background music is outstanding
Yeah agreed! Just that I can't find the bloody name of the song!
So glad to see you guys wearing hearing protection. Sicc how that thing stands up on power.
Woody that French Tickler on your lip is mint!!😅😅
Quarantine = early viewer pog
Love the channel, love the name....time to get out n do a bloody skid
Finally some good music, great content guys, keep them coming.
Enemies Everywhere anti roll bar + waterman cable drive and mechanical pump, sorted. I've got the cable drive in my low-8sec street driven falcon, I love it.
Must be a badass cable.
@@theskidfactory they are. I've done four drag challenges on the same cable. Quickbitz in Melbourne are dealers.
Tuff, ole Calais.
Well done gents!
Hoff's tune file "BoganVK" lmao
You absolutely have to put some kind of rear clip in those vk,s I was once traveling behind the mangano,s bros yellow vk in cairns when they hit it and the entire ass with 9inch tore out onto the road it was like watching American graffiti and that thing only had a 355 stroker.
The cage is tied to the upper control arms, they are what tears free. It will certainly need an ARB but it's getting some viiking shocks first.
@@theskidfactory I think it's time for old mate to cough for a rear clip I would love to see you boys do some serious surgery.
4 link? Me thinks.😁
I really liked your acting in that Bronson movie mate lol.
You guys should get a customer to put on some VS Racing turbos. The Sloppy Mechanics boys seem to be making some serious power on the cheap with em'.
Shhhh...you'll make the current turbo sponsor cry
We don't have a turbo sponsor, maybe VS Racing can hook us up.
Ah ok, was it a golbeys sponsor not garrett?
Al told the truth!
Had the same problem twist in the up with a mk2 cortina fitted a rear anti roll bar and it fixed the problem
i see 1000hp, i instantly hit like. happy days! good job lads
Nice work, from 550 to 1000rwhp. He will have fun, lucky man. IMO that VK would look better with the Brock Grill. Anyway well done.👍🏻👍🏻
Woot!
Woody looks like a young Bronson lol
Sad to discover that pre-orders on the hoodies are now closed despite the video saying that they'd be open until the 31st
Australia not locking down?? In Nz lockdown starts at 12am tonight 😳 A months holiday boys 🤙🏿 haha awesome video as always lads, looking forward to the next project. Stay safe everyone 😁🤙🏿
Australia locked down during the weekend. This was obviously shot a little earlier. All out borders have closed including interstates.
yeah boi
Music on point again (you dirty moe sportin dogg)
Nice work boys, great content
To get the car to leave right, it needs an anti-roll bar and some better coil overs to control suspension movement.
Impressive, given the relatively stock looking bottom end and valvetrain
Going for the Charles Bronson look there i see :-P
Always fuckin impressed with U Aussies punchin 🥊 in from Down UHNDUH! BANG 💥 KAboom 💥 💨
Next Fuel pump and a air/oil separator(catch can)!
Next on the skid factory - how and where to install a catch can 👌🏽
Badass !
