sounds like a bunch a firecrackers goin the fuck off.. spend some money on exhaust bro!!! that thing sounds like shit!!! and im not hattin.. its def a nice car!!
i am pretty sure you are wrong about the whole automatic tranny call, because the reverse lights never came on! if it were automatic he would have to pull the shifter past reverse!!
@CAT416C you can tell it is automatic because the rpm drops in gear whether its reverse or drive, manuals only drop rpm when the clutch is engaging/engaged..
Sorry, could you copy and paste my post where I singled out THIS video and "flamed" it, or by that matter flamed this car?
I would hate for you to be seen as a stupid Lier?
papaown, if you dont like my comments DoNt FuCkInG ReAd them, and unless your own YouTube or have rights to this vid dont preach to me or anyone else what they can and cant post!
Mr. Army Man, you'd think someone like you could read, I didn't say "stop flaming everyone's videos" I simply said stop flaming this guys videos, relax a little. "stupid lier?" The way you spell, has me questioning the type of people they let into the military. But I guess you aren't trained to spell.
The point is "No matter how it sounds it's still an ImPoRt!"
Just encase you didnt understand the last two posts i'm saying that "it's a iMpOrt now matter how it sounds" or "No matter what you like about the sound, it's an ImPoRt" or "It may sound good, but it's a "iMpOrT".
If you need to I will draw you a "picture" if you dont understand what I said above.
Who cares u fuckin idiot? Its an american powertrain and its built in gm's holden assembly plant. GTO is and always will be an AMERICAN MUSCLE CAR DUMBASS
Look on wikipedia holden is a subsidiary of General Motors. Like i said its an American powertrain with an australian monaro body. This may not be a pontiac engine but its still built by general motors in the USA. Never said the vehicle wasnt imported but it still lives up to its name.
"still lives up to its name" I see, ... what did it for you? Is it the Chevy engine? Is it the fact it put Americans out of work? Is it the fake hood scoops? Is it the non American design? Is it the RWD? Is it the V8? Is it the lack of the word Pontiac on it for the majority of years? I know what it is, it lives up to rEaL GTOs cuz Lutz wanted to make money, no less off another automakers car! Has to be it, right? >:)
is this what u do for a living? go to every gto video and complain about it being imported? if u dont like the car then y are u going to every single video on youtube that has one in it? if i dont like something i dont waste my time watching it and complaining about it all day. i watch of stuff i do like. i dont like hondas so i dont watch honda vids. and if i do happen to watch a honda vid i dont go on there and make irrelevent comments that nobody else cares about like u do.
If I post "Nice Import" on a Holden GTO vid, I hardly see that as a "complaint".
What even more funny is that since you posted to me "It's Still A GM Car" and I informed you that it was not, you have been attempting to hide your stupidity by attacking me! LOL!
If you dont like something you dont waste your time? I count around NiNe replies to my posts on several vids by YOU attempting to tell me what to post and what not to post as if your some mother hen KING of YOUTUBE!
a car that has been made with a gm drivetrain since 68 by a car company that is controlled by gm is a gm car. btw, have u noticed that im not the only one that argues with u? if u have people arguing with u all over youtube, then u are more than likely the one making dumb comments...not the other people.
how is my opinion incorrect? its all gm parts and holden has been controlled by gm since the 30s. how much more gm do u want it to be. what makes a car a gm? i would say gm being in control of the company and the car being built with gm parts. if not then maybe im crazy. btw, u realize the company name is GM HOLDEN. like i mentioned, saab was fully owned by gm. their platforms and drivetrains share nothing with any other gm cars. so how exactly is that more gm than a car with a gm drivetrain?
what r u fucking retarded. im making a point that is going right over ur head. so ur saying that gm has to own holden for it to be a gm car even though gm already has control? was saab gm? even though saab didnt use gm parts its gm cuz gm owned them? the gto isnt gm even though it uses all gm parts and holden is controlled by gm? this is getting stupid. answer one question. y the fuck do u waste ur time coming on these videos making ur demeaning "nice import" comment to begin with? nobody cares.
what r u talking about? i said gm doesnt own holden about a thousand times. but they do control them and holden uses all gm parts on this car. going by ur logic gm didnt own gm just a few months ago cuz u could buy shares of its stock. so that means i could have had a partial ownership of gm just like gm does in holden. ur not making any sense saying this isnt a gm car.
Trying to put it down? Where? your assuming again, you can watch my vid where I "praise" the ability of this import! Call me out proof up post it or be called a liar!
So when you said "It's a GM car" you didnt mean "its a GM car"?
Thats what you said!
If I was a Ford guy it would be First on Race day, but since i'm PMD it's If it's not PMD it's wanna be!
It is a chevy engine you fucking idiot. It came out of the vette now u gonna tell me the vette engine wasnt built in the US? I dont give a shit where this car came from it will still pound the living piss outa ur 72 all day long and get 26mpg doin it.
Hey dont get me wrong I love the old GTOs It was the beggining of muscle cars and id like to have one. I just dont get what you are trying to prove goin around bashing on all the holden gtos they are perfectly good cars they may not be assembled in the US but half of GM and Fords cars arent anymore anyway at least australia is better than mexico I have an 06 GTO for my daily driver and it gets 26mpg drivin my 30 miles to work and has a shit ton of power when i need it.
I have the 06 ive only had it about two months. Its fast and it has the six speed but i find myself wanting more lol. I might just sell it and go back to a mustang and put together a turbo kit but i havnt decided yet.
Tuff call, I think the new-er Mustangs look great, I would love to have Black Cobra, or have fun by finding a V6 and stab in Fords Aluminator, that would be a nice street sweeping sleeper!
I can tell you now that it's hard not to "want more" no matter what you get.
The LS engine in your Holden is able to make lots of HP, but like you know it was some "soft spots" & chucking a half shaft at 110 might be nasty, then again you have a trophy & bragging rights!
Just sold the goat and goin after an 06 mustang gt black with red leather interior and a 5spd I think ill be happy for it lol at least for a couple months then comes the boost.
That sounds sweet, last week I was behind a Newer Roush Mustang, all black, I could not see inside dew to the tint, but I had never seen a new-er Mustang by Roush.
It's got Roush written on just about everything, I think it even had it on the gas cap cover!
I have to say I think Ford did a great job on the car, it looks mean as hell, and better looking then the new Camaro.
I guess I can see your point i hate it when everything gets made over seas and shipped here and they are ugly especially the 04s but the old goats werent the prettiest either. I use to not care for them but a friend of mine talked me into gettin the 06 and now that i got one i love it very comfortable and reliable still turns alot of heads and theres not many stock cars around except vettes and shit that can keep up with it.
Yes, this car is world class, it's like a "working mans vette" without the stuck up prick or trophy bimbo behind the wheel.
If you have studied the car it was even a hit way back as the Commodore (extra set of doors). I think the balanced the idea of ability dam good with the IRS.
Even tho it's master of none, (drags, curves) it's great at being good at both. I think most owners would have liked a better rear & half shafts.
woa woa woa. what r u some kind of politician? ur doing the old 'twist ur words' dealio. u say here "I think the the idea of ability dam good with the IRS. Even tho its master of none, (drags, curves) it's great at being good at both." but a month ago on turbo gto for sale u said "Its very ugly, renowned for being so not just my opinion, its IRS fails at both drags & curves it's master of none." so does the IRS fail or does it do a good job of being balanced since u have said both.
Like I said both times "it's master of none" but good at both. By design IRS sucks at drags, if it didnt every "door slammer" would have IRS, as far as rally the car does well but its not as well as say a Vette but better then a F body.
This car is fugly, every single main stream mag that featured this car when it came out made remakes about it's "appearance" in a negative way! Mid 2nd model run it got fake hood scoops & other eye candy to off set the negative attention!
ur quotes..."the IRS fails at both" and "the IRS is great at being good at both". how the hell are those two statements the same. u say it "fails" in one and its "good" in the other. just so u know those 2 words are opposites. so what do u actually think? do u think this is a good car or are u still caught up with the arrow head on the hood?? cuz it seems like u couldnt get past that part not too long ago.
It fails at both drags & rally as its not built best for either one, not my opinion, just read about it!
Neon has been twisting, removing, adding in his opinion, fibbing, misunderstanding, assuming & basing my posts on stuff he believes I think to my posts.
I posted "nice Import" on a Holden vid, Neon said "it's still a GM car" I proved it's not, since then Neon has attempted to redeem himself by splitting hairs.
Twist it all you want, you where still wrong to say "It's still a GM car" >:)
gm is the parent company, holden has been controlled by gm since the 1930s, this car is sitting on an all gm drivetrain, holden is on gms website under gm worldwide, the name of the company is GM HOLDEN LTD, the top of holdens website has a link to "OTHER GM WEBSITEs". i have the whole head of hair that says this is gm. u are the one splitting hairs here with ur majority stock nonsense. the most obvious thing that i havent even brought up is how do u think gm put the pontiac name on this car?
1 1/2 model runs didnt even have the word Pontiac on it, thats half the model run!
I even took the time to write Pontiac about "ownership" and the guy said Holden is a "subsidiary" of GM, if you look up the word "subsidiary" you will find it says:
"an entity that is controlled by a separate entity"
I will not argue who "controls" Holden but facts are facts Holden is not owned by GM.
And since marketing is joint with GM & Holden i'm sure they have Copyright lawyer shit in place all over.
y are u all of a sudden trying to make like u like the holden gto? now its world class? its no longer an import "just like a honda civic" which u posted on Mellon Tuning Evo vs GTO? catogorizing this car with a civic would very much lead me to believe that u were trying to demean this car. so y are u all of a sudden pretending that u have never said a bad thing about it?
Google my user name and you will see I have been saying the same thing about it for years!
I have said all along the only issue I have with this car is what they named it, & how it looks like a 95 Mustang & a 92 Grand AM had a retarded child >:)
I said this car was no different then a Honda Civic as an import, if you stopped ASSuming & adding opinions on & into my posts as you have been doing, you would see it for yourself!
Just so you know everyone doesn't orbit around you!
Yes lol im stuck deciding between a nitrous express kit or upgrading the halfshafts first. ive seen these cars scatter half shafts down the track alot.
I would do the half shafts, it's cheap insurance, one less thing to be worried about. I do know that the rear Diff has been known to have issues under heavy power, the aftermarket does have a replacement diff tho I cant seem to find it.
You can find the rear half shafts here
See monsterdrivelineDOTcom
At the 700HP level these cars are reaching the limit of Stock parts & ready for epic disastrous outcomes.
I do like the nitrous idea, but the shafts are better for foundation issues.
sorry i guess i mistaked you for a person who could assume what i sentence meant. i mean is "it doesnt matter if its an import, its still good". is that what youre saying?
I have found it's good practice not to "assume". I did find that you didnt fumble the insult to me in the same post, so dont "assume" I wasn't going to turn the table on y0u and make you the fool of your own insult.
As well your "assume" I don't think " its " good by implying that I didnt think " it " was "good"!
The only thing I LOVE about an automatic GTO is when you put it in Drive, the ass end squats. It's fucking GREAT. Don't do it on gravel though, you'll dig a hole if its tuned.
Flowmasters sounds like garbage on the LS series compared to most of the other exhausts. Magnaflow is one of the better flowing and great sounding sets.
i really don't think it matters if it's an auto or stick, still dumping fast.

I call it a fake because by all accounts it is! It's not a "Pontiac GTO". It's not GM, not PMD, not even Pontiac.
As in an Adjective "Not real; false, fraudulent."
As far as ugly, the majority thinks this is an ugly car it's very well documented by the majority of the reviews when this car came out.
I feel as if I posted a truth and a "popular opinion" about this looks of this car.

If you have studied the car it was even a hit way back as the Commodore (extra set of doors). I think the balanced the idea of ability dam good with the IRS.
Even tho it's master of none, (drags, curves) it's great at being good at both. I think most owners would have liked a better rear & half shafts.
NAFTA needs to be burned!

woa woa woa. what r u some kind of politician? ur doing the old 'twist ur words' dealio. u say here "I think the the idea of ability dam good with the IRS. Even tho its master of none, (drags, curves) it's great at being good at both." but a month ago on turbo gto for sale u said "Its very ugly, renowned for being so not just my opinion, its IRS fails at both drags & curves it's master of none." so does the IRS fail or does it do a good job of being balanced since u have said both.

Like I said both times "it's master of none" but good at both. By design IRS sucks at drags, if it didnt every "door slammer" would have IRS, as far as rally the car does well but its not as well as say a Vette but better then a F body.
This car is fugly, every single main stream mag that featured this car when it came out made remakes about it's "appearance" in a negative way! Mid 2nd model run it got fake hood scoops & other eye candy to off set the negative attention!

ur quotes..."the IRS fails at both" and "the IRS is great at being good at both". how the hell are those two statements the same. u say it "fails" in one and its "good" in the other. just so u know those 2 words are opposites. so what do u actually think? do u think this is a good car or are u still caught up with the arrow head on the hood?? cuz it seems like u couldnt get past that part not too long ago.
TurboNeon185 2 years ago
It fails at both drags & rally as its not built best for either one, not my opinion, just read about it!
Neon has been twisting, removing, adding in his opinion, fibbing, misunderstanding, assuming & basing my posts on stuff he believes I think to my posts.
I posted "nice Import" on a Holden vid, Neon said "it's still a GM car" I proved it's not, since then Neon has attempted to redeem himself by splitting hairs.
Twist it all you want, you where still wrong to say "It's still a GM car" >:)

gm is the parent company, holden has been controlled by gm since the 1930s, this car is sitting on an all gm drivetrain, holden is on gms website under gm worldwide, the name of the company is GM HOLDEN LTD, the top of holdens website has a link to "OTHER GM WEBSITEs". i have the whole head of hair that says this is gm. u are the one splitting hairs here with ur majority stock nonsense. the most obvious thing that i havent even brought up is how do u think gm put the pontiac name on this car?
TurboNeon185 2 years ago
1 1/2 model runs didnt even have the word Pontiac on it, thats half the model run!
I even took the time to write Pontiac about "ownership" and the guy said Holden is a "subsidiary" of GM, if you look up the word "subsidiary" you will find it says:
"an entity that is controlled by a separate entity"
I will not argue who "controls" Holden but facts are facts Holden is not owned by GM.
And since marketing is joint with GM & Holden i'm sure they have Copyright lawyer shit in place all over.

y are u all of a sudden trying to make like u like the holden gto? now its world class? its no longer an import "just like a honda civic" which u posted on Mellon Tuning Evo vs GTO? catogorizing this car with a civic would very much lead me to believe that u were trying to demean this car. so y are u all of a sudden pretending that u have never said a bad thing about it?

Google my user name and you will see I have been saying the same thing about it for years!
I have said all along the only issue I have with this car is what they named it, & how it looks like a 95 Mustang & a 92 Grand AM had a retarded child >:)
I said this car was no different then a Honda Civic as an import, if you stopped ASSuming & adding opinions on & into my posts as you have been doing, you would see it for yourself!
Just so you know everyone doesn't orbit around you!

Yes lol im stuck deciding between a nitrous express kit or upgrading the halfshafts first. ive seen these cars scatter half shafts down the track alot.
dipshit782 2 years ago
I would do the half shafts, it's cheap insurance, one less thing to be worried about. I do know that the rear Diff has been known to have issues under heavy power, the aftermarket does have a replacement diff tho I cant seem to find it.
You can find the rear half shafts here
See monsterdrivelineDOTcom
At the 700HP level these cars are reaching the limit of Stock parts & ready for epic disastrous outcomes.
I do like the nitrous idea, but the shafts are better for foundation issues.

so your saying it doesnt matter if it is. you just felt like being a douche and stating irrelevant facts?

"it doesn't matter if it is"
What?
If you can put together an intelligent question or at least a question that makes sense let me know!
Coward jackass!
LOL!
ramairgto72 2 years ago
sorry i guess i mistaked you for a person who could assume what i sentence meant. i mean is "it doesnt matter if its an import, its still good". is that what youre saying?
drvrprmt 2 years ago
I have found it's good practice not to "assume". I did find that you didnt fumble the insult to me in the same post, so dont "assume" I wasn't going to turn the table on y0u and make you the fool of your own insult.
As well your "assume" I don't think " its " good by implying that I didnt think " it " was "good"!
It's clear you "assume" more then you should
O_o !

The only thing I LOVE about an automatic GTO is when you put it in Drive, the ass end squats. It's fucking GREAT. Don't do it on gravel though, you'll dig a hole if its tuned.

put flowmasters on it, it will sound deeper and meaner
4wheeler14 3 years ago
and sound like a truck.
heavynova68 2 years ago
really, my 70 GTO doesn't sound anything like a truck with Flowmasters
4wheeler14 2 years ago
Flowmasters sounds like garbage on the LS series compared to most of the other exhausts. Magnaflow is one of the better flowing and great sounding sets.
