It would be awesome to work at whatever business is across the street from NRE for the simple reason of being able to watch these badass cars rip down the road lol
Actually I live across a performance shop. Which they use to test there cars up and down the road well that ended quickly. Cops were called and now cops sit on road waiting
Well to all the haters. He just builds some really fun hot rods. "Oh but my little rice grinder is faster!" So what, there will always be a faster car out there. He has found a niche market for his cars and likes what he builds! Good for him!!!!
A very nicely executed build. The LeMans body is very cool. I can just see the cop looking at your parachute and scratching his head. Iron American Dream on RUclips.
i love seeing these big block twin turbo v8 monsters being created im a muscle car fanactic i cant wait till my firebird runs its got a 598 ci bb ive made my own headers but cant yet afford turbos i just love seeing vids like this it just gos to show even 47 yea old cars can smoke modern imports i also love the body lines of the older cars i hate to see them in scrap yards
@ht666th have you seen how much torque tom nelson's motor make at like 2000 to 3000 rpm. check out the numbers they make. the torque curves of his motors are relatively flat. even if he dropped to 1000 hp at 6 psi or something, his torque is still like 1500 nm, and at 2000 rpm its probably 800 ft-lb or close to 1100 nm. thats a shit load of torque man
As wild as that car is, still a sleeper. Who would expect it could rip off 7s . Crazy power, I have no business ever driving something like that. lol Update on this car?
This scares the shit out of ricers. They'll look over their shoulder and drive up next to you, and give you a few revs. Then you'd speed off 40 car lengths in a split second.
i new a guy with a nelson small block, i was shocked when i noticed they(nelsonracing) used head bolts in a boosted engine...eventually had to fix that part. good looking engine though.
hi rob from new Zealand,bro you are the fukn king dude the king of muscle,your cars would waste anything in our country an if I win lotto your going to meet me bro lolz heavy metal bro
Does anyone know what he does with his builds? Does he keep them, sell them, or take them apart and make another build? Sorry about my ignorance I have no clue.
I remember 14 years ago I asked Nelson did you miss a gear in the video or was that a pothole😊😊😊😊 he seemed to take offense to that LOL but I was just new here asking an honest question because I heard the shifter right after the Bang
the amount of torque this car must do at full boost must be like 2500 ft lbs. like seriously, how fucking insane is that. i would take this car over ANY street legal car in the world. ANY!!
its not the horsepower thats the problem dude, its the torque. yer it may be set at 1000 hp, but the toqrue will be around 1500-1600 nm. at 2000 hp this car makes close to 3000 nm of torque. if he floored this car at 3000 nm of torque in first gear, he no doubt wouldnt have any control with the tyres he is using.
I love the products, but I hate the re-power PONTIAC cars. I understand that PMD has been dead for a while, but aftermarket PONTIAC engines are being made, rather then rehash the LS engine over and over why not take some of that skill and build an aftermarket PONTIAC engine? When I got into PMD in the 90s we didn't have anything, it's not true now. No Chevy belongs in a PONTIAC like this! Ed Cole can SUCK IT!
Love it! But even with all 2000 HP i think my 87 fox body stang could eat it. It pulls high 6s. I believe my best was like 6.88 with like a 0.48 reaction time. Having trouble keeping her str8 but i put money longer than extension cords into it.
no r 34 ever maid 2500hp.instead of paying him to mess around with a 6 cilinder you could have one of his smallblock V8's dooing 2500Hp that he allready has built and tested over and over and sold and raced if you want a 6 he did a 4,3V6 tt with 1200Hp O by the way R34 never had AWD time wasted on a datsun thats the only thing you can do on a datsun V8's are the shit push rods ROCK
You can get a built Pontiac engine to around 2500HP and 2000lb torque, with o-ringed heads. They won't hold any more cylinder pressure without blowing out the head gaskets.
still one of my favorite videos on youtube.
Me too.
Yup me2 I visit it once a year. Nothing else sounds or runs.like.this car here.
Saw this video 12 years ago when I was 15. I knew at that moment I was obsessed with fast cars
same. I couldnt stop watching it
I remember I was about 17 years old showing the other kids in my class. Even the teacher joined in and watched it with us and we all loved it!
Love this comment 😊
How is this car holding up 14 years later?
That fuel pump at the start sounded like a fire hose!
Pretty cool! What a beautiful and powerful car!

@@memorexkillerYawn!😢
every car Tom touches is magic
‘That’s half throttle’ most badass comment ever!
I used to work for winters transmissions where that shifter was made
By far my favorite
Well to all the haters. He just builds some really fun hot rods. "Oh but my little rice grinder is faster!" So what, there will always be a faster car out there. He has found a niche market for his cars and likes what he builds! Good for him!!!!
Tom is a f'n genius and my hotrod hero... man crush...
A very nicely executed build.
The LeMans body is very cool.
I can just see the cop looking at your parachute and scratching his head.

Does the factory radio still work ?
Oh yeah, this is a very beautiful ride. Power and Beauty!

Yeah u can’t beat big block twin turbo torque. It’s like bloody lorry torque 🚛
I would say it needs a radio, but just listening to the pipes is radio enough lol
that is pretty crazy ,,sounds awesome
i luv pro-street cars !! very nice ! tx man!
what kind of shifter is that!!?
As wild as that car is, still a sleeper. Who would expect it could rip off 7s .
Crazy power, I have no business ever driving something like that. lol
Update on this car?
that porsche you passed was maddd lol.
This scares the shit out of ricers. They'll look over their shoulder and drive up next to you, and give you a few revs. Then you'd speed off 40 car lengths in a split second.
lol how cool would it be to drive down the road, and be able to say, NOTHING can beat me on the road..
What's the bit at the back?? With the chain/wire leading to the the tailgate??
parachute
Which gearbox is this? I’m dying to know what can hold this kind of power?
Reverse pattern turbo400
Trans brake
I R&R-ed that transmission a few times
@@davidfuller1061 thanks I’ve not even heard of it. I will look it up thanks 👍
Perfect grocery getter!
7 to the 1/4!!! aaaa!!!!!!!!! crazy.....
Incredible power around 4000 -5000 rpm
i new a guy with a nelson small block, i was shocked when i noticed they(nelsonracing) used head bolts in a boosted engine...eventually had to fix that part. good looking engine though.
What mufflers do you use?
it's for sale got to nelson racing 79,000 dollars and you too can buy 500 dollars in rear tires a week it comes with 2 sets of tires street and strip
That's like military hardware. It negates everything.
hi rob from new Zealand,bro you are the fukn king dude the king of muscle,your cars would waste anything in our country an if I win lotto your going to meet me bro lolz
heavy metal bro
What gearbox is this?? My guess is T400 super uprated but hopefully someone on here knows better?
Miss your voice speaking on this street car & rpm 😀
Pretty cool
Does anyone know what he does with his builds? Does he keep them, sell them, or take them apart and make another build? Sorry about my ignorance I have no clue.
Insane car fuck i would kill for one of those.
I remember 14 years ago I asked Nelson did you miss a gear in the video or was that a pothole😊😊😊😊 he seemed to take offense to that LOL but I was just new here asking an honest question because I heard the shifter right after the Bang
Dude i have Been wondering the same thing for years!
Is it only you and me to come back to see this video once a year or so 😅@@janipt
Probably scared the shit outta that Porsche! Can't imagine he'll turn around for a race.
Whats the sense in doing a test demo with a car like this in rush hour traffic how about an open country road,highway or possibly a race track
i am in love.
good for you
Can you guys install a 6 speed manual with these high horsepower motors.
Telexic A 6 speed would be slower, remember this is a drag car not a street car.
Telexic It would probably kill the "street ability" of these engines, which is kind of the whole point.
the amount of torque this car must do at full boost must be like 2500 ft lbs. like seriously, how fucking insane is that. i would take this car over ANY street legal car in the world. ANY!!
Where is this car now, cause when I hit the lottery, I wanna buy it- price not the issue!!
are you guys still trying to sell this car?
A Honda Accord with Buddy Club zorst would leave this thing for dead..
That porsche driver probably went and traded that pos in after the eargasm
@97MKIV probably a highly built auto
What the deal with chatsworth thats were my tuner is at as well seems like people were raised on high horsepower builds there?
When half throttle is 1000 horsepower 😮
That thing is nasty!
you ever see a nelson built skyline R34?
@robby844 no ive seen their v8 supra tho
what was that at 2:04, looks like you hit something
its not the horsepower thats the problem dude, its the torque. yer it may be set at 1000 hp, but the toqrue will be around 1500-1600 nm. at 2000 hp this car makes close to 3000 nm of torque. if he floored this car at 3000 nm of torque in first gear, he no doubt wouldnt have any control with the tyres he is using.
Fuckin sweet
LOL the r34 was a straight six with 2500 HP to all four tires.
Fuck yea
honestly i do not know the term of "sleeper" what does that mean
7 Second quarter mile - you're giving Red Victor 2 a run for its money
MPG?
Yes
BMW commercial before this. ha. ha. HA. If I wanted to drive a tampon, I'd just buy one of those.
I love the products, but I hate the re-power PONTIAC cars.

No Chevy belongs in a PONTIAC like this!
Ed Cole can SUCK IT!
this would make a fast pizza delivery car.
🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠
A race car dumped on the street without pump gas e85
I'll bet that thing can haul fuckin' ass in park!
A bump in the road
doubt that motor is 2000 hp, didn't sound much over 1997 hp but was still impressive.
He said at the start it was detuned to make 1,000 HP due to being too powerful for the city streeta
Nicee
The devils grocery getter...
Love it! But even with all 2000 HP i think my 87 fox body stang could eat it. It pulls high 6s. I believe my best was like 6.88 with like a 0.48 reaction time. Having trouble keeping her str8 but i put money longer than extension cords into it.
wow and was only half throtle
"wast" time on what?
he/they build these cars for clients dude, every car i've seen on NRE's chanel belongs to someone else
Imagine the fuel cost :S
HAHAHAH sooooo true. but its so worth it
so hows the gas milege lol
no r 34 ever maid 2500hp.instead of paying him to mess around with a 6 cilinder you could have one of his smallblock V8's dooing 2500Hp that he allready has built and tested over and over and sold and raced if you want a 6 he did a 4,3V6 tt with 1200Hp O by the way R34 never had AWD time wasted on a datsun thats the only thing you can do on a datsun V8's are the shit push rods ROCK
Nice .. You would be lucky to get 3 mpg on it Lol ....
LMAO thats why he drags with the tires hes got on it?
yes but, can it be driven with a massive erection?
why would he wast his time unless you have the cash
lol yea, probably still has no control at full throttle
dangerous is my middle name
That's a shame, if you're not gonna build a Pontiac motor, leave the Pontiacs alone
You can get a built Pontiac engine to around 2500HP and 2000lb torque, with o-ringed heads. They won't hold any more cylinder pressure without blowing out the head gaskets.
now lets see what a little 4 banger import take this beast on
Sorry to say it but read down !!! >< im not like that but when we talking cars like that uufff..
mean fn mean lolz
It won't run on pump gas I bet
this thing idols with More TQ. than an r34 can make
yet again you misspell a word.dude dont even argue with me if you cant spell
When fuel consumption is not a factor...
What mufflers do you use?
