Far out.....cleanest back yard build EVER.....Even cleaner then most shops.....Congratulations on an awesome build

I don't comment much on car videos because car builds are a dime a dozen on youtube. BUT your video of the build I think is more impressive of what you did. Every little detail over those 2 years you filmed. Fantastic job. Thnx for sharing it with us. 1000's of hours you put into this beast!

Man I’m so sad Holden stopped making these beauty’s I always love the look of them. They are getting rarer every year!

Well done mate. You should be proud of yourself buddy. I’m looking forward to doing a review on this car when I’m in Melbourne later this year.

Man you must of spent a Fortune doing the modifications with the turbo kit and all that bloody good job brother

I have caprice 2012 V8 and now I will have dreams every night to do the same upgrade! The most satisfying video I have ever seen

Wicked build top craftsmanship and all in a home garage !unreal

what a unit from wiring to welding mans does it all ! makes me wanna turbo my vf lol!

Insane build man, the patients you have for attention to detail is so satisfying to watch 👌🏼

Absolute weapon, like a full on the spot engineering brain…what a job, clean as

What a clean build, well done. Makes me miss v8 turbo power.

Awesome build mate. I’ve just finished my VF2 turbo setup. Now I need to get a similar suspension stance as yours. 👍👍👍

Absolutely beautiful fab work man, you should be proud of what you've done there bro. 🇭🇲👍

That is an amazing effort and quality on the job carried out seen a lot of project without the quality of yours. Well done 👌👌 that is an amazing work carried out

Wow incredible job! Attention to detail is next level. Must be awesome to drive

Wow, suprised me how good your build was.

Skills! Attention to detail makes all the difference in the world... Nice work 👍

In NZ we don't call them wastegate blankets we call em turbo beanies

Twelve minutes in and very impressed by the professionalism of the work and the articulation of details given 👍 well done very nice fellas

Epic work neat as too. Most throw it all in half finished just to get it to run. You made sure everything was perfect

Wow...just wow💯💪👏👏

Absolute quality. Thanks for posting the whole process. Really impressed with your skills and attention to detail. Something that alot of people lack. Well done sir ❤

Well done buddy awesome in depth build and skill set to match. Cheers

B E A UTIFUL !!! Will u come too Mass USA and do my SS sedan maybe turn it into a wagon @ the same Time . Can’t get them here but I’ll have my 17 sedan till they bury me in it .

Hectic build and work and best Video I’ve ever seen!! You’re a Legend Amazing Job!!

😮 wow dude that’s bloody amazing loved watching that the attention to detail brilliant top job 😊 and the comments on your video say it all excellent work.

Thank you for entertaining and sharing.

This is incredible bro the amount off money you’d be saving doing this your self your nuts love the background music best to goes along perfect to this video I just subscribed hope to see more videos😎

Nice build bro. Im in the USA. I also have a 17 VF/Chevrolet SS Sedan in Red Hot 2. My LS3 has been fully built and forged and FIC 1650cc and Fore tripel pump in the tank. All fuel lines done with An lines. Intercooler is gigantic so big is barely fits behind the front bumper. Camero deep pan upgrade Built trans Circle D converter Whole build from top to bottom has been all upgraded to ARP bolts. Holley fuel rails Holley valve covers All the cold side pipes are wrapped and anything hot side has been coated in this new thing that cuts the temperature down like crazy. Heater core hose has been relocated for cleaner look. All the radiator hose has been upgarded to aluminum piping. Cold case upgrade radiator. Transmission oil cooler custome fabricated Also the whole build was done with V band clamps anywhere we could use it it was done. These kit where custom fabricated so we could add what we wanted. No clamps here didnt want potential boost leaks. Turbo blanket and turbo guard Full custom 3 inch exhaust all the way back. Its like 3 page long build those are just some of the things we did. Love the wagon bro. Love the build also. My WM Caprice will be LSA soon also. Holden for life man. The car is being built by my good friends shop 12 hours from me. I wish i had the skills to build it at home like you bro. I have some skills but not on that level. I might do the LSA swap on me WM at home to learn more.

That's bloody mint mate.. Clean as build!

Insanely awesome job and video editing love it 🍻

That was awesome to watch. Good job mate. Beautiful job

Wow what a great job, the car looks killer....

Stumbled on this - brilliant mate, sounds incredible

How good are you! Mate what a build and process, you made it look like a piece of cake. (I am sure it wasn’t) let me know when you are taking customer orders and I will slot mine in.

Awesome video mate nice work 🤙🏽

exhaust wrap great idea and a turbo blanket will bring under bonnet temp down 200 odd degrease !

Congratulations on an absolute work of art mate.

Great work, hopefully my Ssv redline wagon gets this kind of turbo goodness 🔥👌

Gargantuan effort mate, very happy to see it start up :)

Mate that is an awesome video of a job really well done!

Amazing work , so good to watch

What an awesome build 🤙

neat work mate

Awesome build bro, really enjoyed watching 🤙

Quality workmanship mate great vid 👌 👍

Wow well done, one mad wagon bro

Aye mate love the car saw ur at the car show tonight love it ❤

what a weapon. massive accomplishment right here

A Ha just watched it again and saw the plates DROPNN I like it 🇭🇲💪

What a machine mate 👏

Bro. I've got a stock lsa clubby sedan, same color, but I'm totally jealous of your ride.. Looks dang mint. Good on you m8.

Seen your car today man good job 👍🏻

So nice

Awesome effort mate. Great skills and tidy as fuck install 🎉. Respect from over the ditch in New Zealand .

Very nicely done man 👌the thing looks mint AF, nice job on the tig work also-very tedious but well worth the effort you went to. How freakin nuts is the feeling of first start up, hoping all is in place and she doesnt have a catastrophic failure+that ear melting sound. #Sothisiswhatlovefeelslike

Kudos

Bruvs got all the mad skills to burn.

based can we get a tracklist sir?

wow

Not all hero's wear capes🙏

So I'm guessing you have a full time job... Would you consider doing any private?? Absolutely scary machine. Love it😂😂❤❤❤❤

It looks mean too man, great stance. What are you going to call him/her? 💪🇭🇲

I love modified cars but I’m curious to know other than the shell… how much is still a holden

Not sure how i stumbled across this video but fuck me that’s a lot of work gone into that. Unreal work mate, sounds and looks mean as. How much power did it end up making?

Thanks mate, on e85 it’s 630kow/845hp on 10psi

intage air cleaner would be good for the engine...

looks and sound's great. man hoping to follow suit and turbo mine in the future. hows it go for heat? is their anything to note about going the turbo? besides the fuel disappearing😂

That’s pretty much it so far, engine bay temps are high but that’s just turbo things, loves drinking e85 and doesn’t like traction.

Is this similar to the WN Holden? In US terms is call this a Chevy SS wagon. Regardless it’s giving me bad idea😂 I love this build man it’s incredible

If you mean WN statesman or caprice then yes, and Chevy ss is what it would be if they sold the wagons over there.

Get a lot of mixed answers with it, some believe the high volume is too much for a factory sump and it’ll run it dry.

You definitely don’t, look at a Killaboost entry level kit, put some valve springs in and upgrade your fuel system and send it 🤙🏻

Hey mate, this is a weird question but what's the fuel economy on this? It doesn't matter too much, and especially when you're dusting the cob webs off her she'll drink like a fish in water, but was just more so comparing a turbo build vs ls3 w a supercharger vs lsa. Friend has a VF1 Clubby Wagon and was just curious is all. Cheers mate, really appreciate your full build!

I’ll be completely honest I’ve never been one to look at what economy I’m getting, tank gets low I fill it up haha. On e85 it’ll be pretty terrible.

They’re short length Bosch 1650cc units and way overkill for the power I made 630kw/845hp, duty cycle was 28% at that power level. Have seen them used at 1000kw/1340hp.

Yeah definitely see it in the future but got an America trip booked that swallowed up the budget, Converter, transmission crossmember, shifter & drop box, speedo module and tailshaft. Shouldn’t be much different then a glide/th400 conversion.
