I'm 34 now but when I was in high school and probably 14/15 years old, I saved up and bought the HPI DVDs and would lend them to all my mates in school as we were the very rare JDM lovers as everyone else back then in Australia just loved Holden's and Fords. All those DVDs and VHS's are brilliant, they still hold up today for great watching.

@matt260 11 ай бұрын

32:05 all JDM STI's have EL headers from factory. Twinscroll turbo, EJ207, 8250rpm redline all stock. it does sound like a flat 4 more when you get into boost.

In 2007 I took on a Volvo with a Honda Fireblade, and spent 3 months in hospital in traction - Andrew's DVD's kept me sane during that period!

Bro!!! As an Aussie kid growing up in the 90's seeing THE Ghost just sitting there in the back of the shop is actually insane. That car was godly famous in every tuner magazine. Super cool to see it still around and in the same condition.

@imsim6064 11 ай бұрын

interesting fact i guess not many people outside of Australia know. In order for us to import and register grey market cars they needed to be complied or have a similar model sold in Australia already. a lot of cars like skylines that had no comparable local car the government would crash test a number of of them to confirm compliance. Saying this we have always been able to import certain complied JDM cars however not the majority, for example for years we could only import JZX tourer v's and Mark 2 in 1JZ-GTE but not the gz or whatever, 1jz na's etc.

Its been in the 85 honda oddysey my cousin drove in the garage for the past 6+ years with his name written on Shawn cause he stopped coming around as much.

@larry that purple VL drag car would've come out with a RB30 single cam turbo or NA. many australian builders use those rb30 blocks with rb25det heads from a r34gtt and build 700-1000hp monsters without much effort. (the rb30 turbos were quick even the auto ones and those VL commodore bodies although they looked big weighed nothing).

39:10 in Europe they were called the Granada, think it was a UK thing in the 70s-80s. My dad had one 🙂, in green, it had a 3 liter 6 cylinder engine. Think the Ghia badge is the trim level.

It's a XE Ford Fairmont Ghia. It's still a Falcon, but the Fairmont was higher spec and the Ghia just another level (from memory). The XD Falcons (the start of that squarer box look) don't have a lip from the bonnet over the radiator area. The XE's have a flat lip and the XF has a curved lip. The XE's had those lights at the back and the XF had like a plastic insert in those grooves. I was never a Falcon fan but plenty of mates had them so I picked up some info like you do. I'm sure there are plenty of other facts that I don't know and a Ford fanboy can fill in on the full details.
