nice car. i have an ssv 2008 (my09) vodoo blue.factory standard though.thinking of lowering her.would handle better.she goes n drives nice.very happy with the car.i like to get up about 1-2am so i can take her for a drive (no traffic) and open her up.anyone who knocks the car is just jelouse
hey man nice car, I'm not sure which way to go FG XR8 or VE SS, how do you find this car? I'm neither a Holden or Ford man, I like them both. I'm looking to upgrade to a V8.
funny, i just ran my mate in his rx8 in my standard ssv ute, he had a few upgrades to his tune n fuel.. guess who won ;) ill admit he kept up orite at the start up until 90 although still was never in with a chance, but after that he might aswell have packed it up..
buy ur rotar, lets run ;p although i do love my rotars aswell nothing compares to a v8 rumble..
@Donz2750 cool dude driving a v8 is soo much more different to driving an rx7, ive had my fc turbo for a while now and now im buying a vu ss after driving my mates, its a complete different drive, power, handling, crusing, everything, so u cant just say one shits on the other as they dont
everything in/on it besides the engine is Aus (engine borrowed from Chev) dumbass. And I'd rather push a Holden then take a bus (or a Ford in that matter)
This past Saturday after doing my groceries I couldn't find the trolley return bay, so I put it between 2 commodores. It took a bit of pushing but I got there.
hate all those idiots talking shit,yet there on this site watching this car ,and all they can do do is post stupid comments cause they can't afford a car like this,i'd ask to race any of you c...ts but i don't thinf its fair to race a V8 against the public bus that all you bums ride on ,on your way to centrelink to take your newstart form in,do us all a favour get a job and stop living off our tax payers money
nice ride ,got the same in black,by the way all you envious idiots get off this site with your stupid comments and go back to your mum's and ask her if you can take her volks wagon for a spin
Lmao. Too true.. Well said edstewart2000.... Robbo1313, Sounds Tuff mate!! trading my Vy sv8 in soon for a VE SS :D Can not wait to race some busses lmao Woop Woop Woop
New Auto's are 6 speed and well advanced over sluggish auto's of the past. Sure as a purist a manual is great but for everyday driving the auto is better and would suck the doors off the manual. You try racing a WRX through the Black Spur (winding hill roads) in a manual and you will be embarrassed. The auto is intuitive and adapts to driving. ie will change down when you break hard and will hold lower gears longer anticipating u to punch it out of slow corners. trust me.
Its a 2.5 inch x-force exhaust in stainless steel including the Headers. No drone, its fantastic. Chuck it on the Sport Wagon then post a vid. It will be great.
Mate...beaaaaautiful ride! :) Just a question...I want to put a pod filter on my VZ SS ute. I aint too experienced with this stuff, plan is to simply remove the old airbox and filter, and slide the pod over the existing MAF pipe (With MAF sensor still on of course). Is that what you did? ANy help would be awesome :)
Thanks buddy. I'm not an expert but I think you would need to replace your existing maf pipe in order to position a pod filter properly. I had mine fitted by the guys that did my exhaust (JHP vehicle enhancements in Nunawading)
Ok, I'm wondering something...............Does Holden have other cars in the American Car Market, other then the Monaro, that are based on their own cars...........Cuz I only know of Pontiac's Version of the Monaro, the GTO
Correct. My blurb says, "essentially". I felt an essay on the difference was unnecessary since they are largely cosmetic. The exhaust and CAI give the SS more power than the Clubby so it really just lacks the better brake package.
I have a silver VE SS ;-) I havn't touched it from stock as of yet, i went through all that with my VX and alot on my VY ss, still, I will get pacemaker headers and 2.5 through with no cats soon enough.
I agree much better to be the people loading videos of reckless driving on a public forum for all to see. Listening to other peoples exhaust vids helped me decide on this setup, I thought this may help others.
Listen, my apologies m8 i was in a very smartarse mood when i posted this and was way out of line for that i apologise, i love the new holden Ve and just bought one myself,full apologies for being a such a dick...
Will the hitch on the your commodore fit the G8 GT? If so where did you get it? I think it's a great idea putting a hitch on a car rather then driving a huge truck or SUV for the odd time you need to haul.
1st of all, I don't think a hitch will affect it's power, so quit all the bitching. second, there is many more choices in the way of full size trucks in america, and many more people have trucks than cars. oh, BTW, the G8 ute is coming to the U.S. I want the sedan and the truck. I just think it would be cool to have a 21st century El Camino.
This car regularly tow's a 2 tonne boat, hence, the hitch. Hitch probably weighs less than the extra weight you yanks carry round the guts too LOL. Back to the research tho pal as the Aussie VE and the Yank G8 both have 362 HP (270kw) and 530nm torque. However, only in Aussie do we get clubsport versions and the top of the line GTS with 412 HP (307kw) stock from factory. My car will have considerably more than the stock 362 HP thanks to the mods.
No doubt M3 amazing vehicle, however, at $165K (new 08) there is a high opportunity cost. Alternatively could buy the VE SSV ($50K), buy a 5.5m fibreglass fishing boat with 175hp 4 stroke outboard ($60K), then buy a 2006 turbo diesel Landrover Discovery ($40K) to pull it. Then with the left over cash head down to the local strippers with mates for lappies and beers :). That said....M3 is a wet dream. nice ride, happy motoring.
i can't wait in about 3-4 years when i can finnaly afford the G8 (commodore) due to my income! absolutely in love with this car for over a year!! awesome!! check my favorites out and you will see!
