RAISING HELL IN THE LONG ROOF (we broke the dyno😱) - Barra Powered Crown Ep7

Can you make a Barra sound good? With its large capacity and long stroke the Barra has a very unique sound. With some help from Golebys Parts we are going to give our best shit at fabricating a practical yet ear pleasing exhaust for Woody's Crown Wagon using 3.5" Stainless Steel mandrel bends and Vibrant mufflers.
With the tail shaft fitted and exhaust fabricated it's then off to see our mate Kye at Knight Family Motorsport. With the laptop connected to the Haltech Nexus R3 its time to tune this bad boy and get ready to hit the streets!
Thank you to all of the awesome companies that support the show and have helped build this weapon of a wagon.

Woodys face when he was in the passenger seat as Kye powered on. You could see the fear and Woodys chest was going up and down with the deep breaths. Priceless

[@bendegruchy4460]

My barra Cressida got a really bad vct/timing rattle at a similar rpm after I installed a ross race series harmonic balancer. Turns out the washer on the crank bolt was bottoming out before the balancer was fully home. One side of the washer had a shoulder on it. I flipped the washer over and it pulled the balancer all the way in, and the noise went away. Something to check... Ripper build mate I love your work

[@tawfiqrizqallah9337]

Did you reuse the factory harmonic balancer bolt and washer? Also was the noise only apparent when the engine was hot?

[@bendegruchy4460]

@@tawfiqrizqallah9337 arp crank bolt, factory washer. Noise there hot and cold.

[@shillosspeedfactory1642]

Listening to Kai is a foreign language for all us home enthusiasts. However he explains it all in a way that makes sense and you can get behind it. Blokes a legend

[@happydog6500]

The upskirting of Al was something I wasn't expecting, but will see me through many a lonely night.

[@FreeFinca]

😂

[@damfadd]

Yeah ..I'm feeling a little sick ....ughhhh

[@dennisbjones]

Some things shouldn't be seen and once seen take far too long to un-see.

[@AJ-oj5eu]

Is this a new selfie craze all the kids are doing now...."Here's my skirtsie.....Here's my up-self"?

[@neilf740]

At least it is now known why he has to compensate with big engines and turbo's ;-)

[@matthewpickering9270]

Kye is a wizard harry. Nice job lads

[@MRMOPARMAN0426]

I could listen to kye waffle on all day long. What a wealth of knowledge!

[@nathannevard797]

It’s quite refreshing to hear al swear.maybe not all the time,the occasional f bomb just makes him even more genuine

[@BradGryphonn]

24:35 Woody was looking a little nervous. Chest heaving, eyes wide. Then the smile came after.

[@TimCars]

"I'm not nervous, I've got thongs on" 😂

[@Adon.Y]

Needs to be a shirt

[@paulcrocker8232]

Now we need a Crown drag race to see who's is faster

[@firbolg]

The funny thing for me is I don't even own a car anymore. I moved to a big city and owning a car here is pointless. I move faster around on a bicycle. But as a former mechanical engineer and ambulance driver/EMT, I still really love these videos. Love seeing Al give Woody a hard time! Never gets old! I do miss driving though! Love the Crown! Good on Woody!

[@ftovr2957]

Sick build, and excellent result! Know the feeling of wanting to just drive after a project is running, as long as it goes, the little jobs can be done eventually.

[@skinfull]

Great to see how happy this has made you Woody, well done mate you're a legend, you and Al deserve great things

[@RoBert-ix6ev]

Sooo good to see Woody being totally satisfied with the safe yet impressive power level gained!

[@XavierMR2]

Good stuff well deserved finished project for woody ya looked so stoked about the out come witch makes it even more wholesome for someone that has watched over the years! Great stuff mate and enjoy it mint summer to come with the boys in the crowns cruising !!!

[@jasoncampbell5518]

This week on the skid factory. Woody breaks down and Al get hungry ! Lol... this stuff is what makes your channel so amazing !! O yea why am I just now hearing about the Gold coast meter maids ?

[@dan91sgarage]

Probably my favourite build on youtube this year. Great work guys, enjoy it Woods! Kye's a legend, some great insights from him. Also how cool are the double rear window wipers! 👍

[@cjm5002]

LOL "we are going to give our best shit at fabricating" !!! You guys never fail to give the best, no sweat my dudes!

[@luked237]

Man epic build guys love the exhaust

[@renrogers78]

Awesome build 👏 guys, wagon looks good 👍 👌

[@southney7211]

Great build buddy. Love the double rear wiper setup!

[@Sev_Auk]

Congrats Woody! Sweet setup you got there :)

[@shanesurman284]

Congratulations mate she’s a ripper and can tell you’re so stoked awesome stuff

[@traistaylor]

Your guys genuine personalities, real world builds and expectations is refreshing in this click baity KZbin world

[@mcmullan2042]

What an amazing build, everything thought out properly. Nice work lads.

[@jefferyholcombe5189]

Awesome! Definitely a lot of hours in building these things! I am in the process of building a SBC that is balanced and blueprinted w/turbo. It has billet main caps and some aluminum heads a long with many other goodies. The most time I am spending on it is to get the factory guages and cruise to work with the aftermarket ECM that allows me to control the fuel and spark. The whole thing is that I wanted the pickup truck that the motor is going into to loom completely stock even to the authorities. You have to do this here in NY because we have inspection on our vehicles and emissions equipment has to stay or at least look like it stayed and on newer ones with OBD2 the port has to work for the state to pass your inspection. Makes it hard because if the ECM Vin doesn't match the car it won't pass. Then you have to force the ECM to learn the one that is on the body so it will pass inspection. Lots of fun stuff! LOL no rest for the wicked!

[@jasonkennedy1670]

great selection of components and excellent fabrication skillz

[@brucemacdonald5532]

Really enjoyed this build, brilliant to see the smile on Woody’s face!

[@Akshun82]

Congrats, mayne. What a beast!

[@Drewchinnick68]

This is mint and makes happy to see, thank xx

[@Berg-vm5ht]

Seen the wagon today at bli tavern roundabout. Looks mean with the wheels woody 👍👍👍

[@FixTechStuff]

Well done! It turns out that fancy diff wasn’t extreme overkill.

[@danielspencer1973]

Awesome build Woody! Gotta love a wagon mate! This ep was a bit nutty, better keep an eye on Al with those camera angles! 🤣 Deez Nutz

[@howesyaadventures5542]

Well done boys. Woody, one happy man!! Also props to Kai on the tuning 👌 Also it needs external wastegate asap 😂

[@Danger_mouse]

Congratulations guys, enjoy the car Woody 👌

[@chrispapadopoulos3058]

Well done Woody nice to see a proper engine in your car, Barra the World 👍

[@fendel_]

What an epic build!

[@micjarrett]

Smashing the like button, epic video, especially the post credits.

[@Whateverpoopiepants]

The fridge will need some airflow around the back even if it’s a cheapo peltier tile based cooling system. Love it boys. Fabulous work and fun as always. ❤ Thanks very much from 🇬🇧.

[@johnjosephson9277]

Pretty sure it it's a compressor one. But yeah, needs to dump heat somewhere.

[@andrewkirk8687]

Love the way this car came out. Have fun driving the wheels off it woody.

[@troyday5887]

Wicked build,woody!

[@davidyates748]

That moment when you find a mystery fastener on the ground under the car! 😂 car looks and sounds fantastic, great stuff guys!

[@J_I_Was]

Always watch till the end Love the after credits

[@nooki1102]

That part of the highway you were testing on brings back alot of memories. Back in 2000 we used to go nuts on that stretch , would end up in jail these days lol.

[@rob83r]

That exhaust is pure art. Matches the rest of the car. We’ll done Woody 👍

[@pattman96]

As an American that love's wagons.. that thing is perfect!! Really sad no skids were done in the skid factory!!

[@greasy_efpv5441]

so good. nice work

[@MrNosajwhitey]

Absolutely love listening to your dyno sessions with Kye being able to explain stuff that just makes sense and helps me understand how a good build works going to enjoy seeing awesome roll racing in the future going to be funny seeing another rig chopping more known rigs

[@PaulyDDownunder]

As a fellow Barra owner, I would love to get a new T-shirt with an 8mm nut on it 🤣. Anyway, this has been another Awesome build to watch! Thanks Guys!

[@tomahoks]

Sick Barra, bruh🥰

Sick car Woody!!

[@BigYumps]

SICK!

[@K4rt80y]

Woody, rockin the stashe-o. Nice.

[@rotorhead5000]

Man, Kai talking about using the e-throttle to control the turbo had me legit saying "dude, that is clever as f***", wish i could do anything that smart.

[@jaydenweaver1117]

The end clips 😂 best part was you being overtaken by a high top troopy lol

[@mex351]

15.28 best I have ever seen or heard from Al... lol

[@Nonamexxx-x]

Didn’t miss much pretty smik mate🎉

[@ashgranger8359]

I reckon the wheels look perfect on it!

[@mattfisher4256]

Do I spy the Subaru Outfap in Al’s car park? When is the Hoff next gracing the dyno keyboard??

[@JR-ii4lq]

Lol, just realised I'd taken a photo of your Crown when I was in Noosa for Xmas 2022. I was on the way to bistro C for a 'fancy' date with the missus. A fresh piece of JDM caught my eye and I took a shot. 23/12/22 ~7:30 pm, parked opposite the ripcurl/billabong shops.

[@JR-ii4lq]

You had the nizzpros on it at the time.

[@quincyoconnor9707]

35:29 Al should know its about surface area to volume ratio.... not just volume. jokes aside, awesome to see all the hard work pay off.

[@GrandmaTDawggsCribb]

Beautiful car!

[@UncleManuel]

Power to the ECU? Nah bra, it runs on Wooddy's enthusiasm. No electrons needed... 😁😁😁😁🤘🤘

[@adrianw3985]

Sweet wagon

[@murdurer333]

Woah there are two windshield wipers on the back glass? Luxurious!

[@0643052]

yezzah!!! enjoy!

[@SloppyMechanics]

the R5.dash.keypad combo is incredible stuff

[@theskidfactory]

R3, PD16, Keypad and Dash in this case.

[@MonkeyFabGarage]

You had me at “Air Conditioning” ❤

[@timothydunn5889]

FFS. Kye has a brain the size of a small universe. He may as well have been talking Russian for all I understood. What a top bloke.

[@shoominati23]

You can make mad choochin noises now when you go thru the Maccas drivethru at 1am to get 30c icecream cones 🤣

[@greasy_efpv5441]

bless you AL

[@MrMrsedz]

Classy with grunt

[@Jonathan_Doe_]

The throttle boost control seems to add epic sctusctusctu dosage! Slight downside to using the throttle to control boost could be some minor efficiency losses due to the throttle butterflies adding turbulence to the pre turbo air. That’s why some factory NA throttle body maps try to run wide open whenever possible, even when the pedals at part throttle.

[@Noobi5h]

Loved the after credits scene

[@sickdevs]

Absolutely love the car Woody! Paint rules, engine rules, enjoy it!

[@aaronhogan2371]

35:50 "Jandal Cam". Thank christ that wasn't an up skirt.

[@2010WRXLimited]

Ahah the outro was comical! Anyone who does this stuff has seen the dumbest things that derail even the best builds. Too funny!!

[@codywolfordify]

So cool

[@robertlewis7237]

THANK YOU

[@joealex65]

Hey Woody, before you drill a massive hole on the hot side of the turbo, try talking with the guys at Artec, they make some of the best exhaust manifolds out there, i'm sure they can help you out with keeping the boost down on that Barra, they are also Australian.

[@fossilfuelenthusiast]

STORY TIME. I had an LPG only XD Falcon. It stalled at the lights one day. I pushed it round the corner then worked out the LPG solenoid had no power so I ripped the speaker wiring out the door and hot wired the LPG solenoid so I could get to work. Found out later that day I had bumped the LPG switch with my knee by accident 🤣

[@jonathanwright5550]

I had a 85 coon with dual fuel. Man what a pos

[@chriswood9815]

Well done guys. Drag challenege 2024?? 😉

[@Nujabesme]

Max: "Okay! How the hole did you get all this together?" Barry: "It just happened, Max. You know? A _____piece from here and a _____piece from there." Max: "So easy?" Barry: "Yeahs." Goose: "Come on, Max. You've seen it... You've heard it... and you're still asking questions?" Max: "When do we go for a ride?"

[@ryanzammit1]

Lol the old nut trick

[@Cava23]

@theskidfactory when changing the gate position go 60mm also... I own a 1000hp barra, been through boost issues, 60mm, you'll thank me later 😅
