SUPERCHARGED VE GTS

[mousy128]

@samkactus which LS engine is that? LS7?

[samkactus]

@mousy128 custom built, only base LS part is LS2 block, rest is ETp heads, Callies crank, Ross pistons, Comp cam, etc.

[addyshinobi]

doesn't sound as nice as the walkinshaw charger.. but still alright

[crazyredneckwifknife]

@addyshinobi aren't they different types of supercharges??

[addyshinobi]

@crazyredneckwifknife yes, but they still do the same thing i imagine, and for they money i would get the walky, theres nothing like a screamer!

[samkactus]

@WTSMiniEvenniaLOL ........marksworkshop@westnet.­com.au for all inquiries.......

[1971Valiant]

What exhaust system is that car running it sounds great

[danbgo33]

The white on the engine belt reminds me of mad max.

[barrelobern]

What's the thing in the boot?

[breebw]

@barrelobern Fuel pump

[heyred08]

who cares where parts of the car are from even if some parts are from america look what us australians have done with it. by the way i just bought a vy clubby and i sure as shit know where im takin it to get modified. keep up the good work guyz at MWS

[8phatkat8]

is it true that in WA the only time you can rev your car and do 200kph is when your car is on a dyno?

[ClubbySuperCharged]

They are not Chevy powerplants. It is GM's powerplant. Caddy uses it too but seen anyone uses Cadillac badges? No.

[samkactus]

@ClubbySuperCharged have a close look at the rocker covers, they are GM performance rocker covers, may be you should take your argument up with them.

[TheFordy05]

@mattyoz0 mate my pubic hair has more of an idea than 1 of your brain cells so go climb back under your rock

[Mcmerc01]

say what about ford?

[imSNIFFLES]

@Mcmerc01 Ford is shit.

[Mcmerc01]

@imSNIFFLES Exactly....

[hikkis100]

thats it????????

[03vyCLUB]

you blokes wouldn't be looking for any apprentices would you?

[Danielhsv0]

WOW NICE AS HSV'S IN DRIVEWAY MAN!

[xXTURBOZDXx]

dislike that yellow n black ugly lookin thing!!! nice ve mate wish i had one :)

[CHUBBYPIPPY]

@xXTURBOZDXx bite your tounge thats a gto hsv coupe !!!!!!!!!! but the other two there suck hard ....

[xXTURBOZDXx]

@CHUBBYPIPPY haha nah the rubbish cars on the end is what i was talking bout :P no way in hell i would dislike hsv :D

[kabam02]

SHit look at that Kick back on the dyno. nice car. only i would have put in a supercharger that my a whine :)

[dagwoodboy]

COULD OF SMOKED THEM UP YOU PUSSY

[warples1]

A car is badged on its chassis not the motor you put in it, now bloody blokes are badging v6's chevs, it is out of control.

[MrDarkservant]

2 Questions

1 How much would one of these go for stock second hand?

2 Would It be posible to fit a supercharged LS9 into it?

[BAwithBALLS]

fuck that fuel pumps loud as fuck

[MrTyrrell123]

to answer chadwad69, so you don't get pulled over or a fuckin speeding ticket every time you go for a drive... don't have to flog your ride every time you go for a drive dude

[chadwad69]

Can somebody please tell me why you would have a car with SO much power and drivie it like a princess? Mights aswell have just kept it stock =S

[turbominivan60]

Sexy

[hsvsupercars]

where can i buy the red chev rocker covers ,i live in townsville and have done the coil relocation i'm just waiting to find these rocker covers,can you help please mate

[samkactus]

@hsvsupercars There are GM Performance covers.

[211Alucard]

Is that the Pontiac G8. Nice car but you made a bad investment.The Pontiac is out of business.

[ThatAdelaideGuy]

@211Alucard Its not a Pontiac, its a Holden. Pontiacs are what they are renamed when they get exported to America

[fredoes]

@211Alucard 100% Australian made

[Mechknight73]

@211Alucard This is the "parent" car to the Pontiac G8, the HSV VE COmmodore Club Sport. HSV are the performance wing of Holden and very much in business still. GM USA might be in debt, but GM Holden are still making a profit of close to $100 million a year at the moment

[pete401]

Nice Video clip there Sam. 5 stars. Loving the Chevy powered Holden's.

[bftcrip]

hey bro do u wana drive like any more of a fagnuts or hit boost an show wat this thng can do?

[Kieran263]

loves the centrifugal charger :D

[Parag0n]

LS series engines = mexican built by a company in america that has gone bankrupt (General Motors)

[260KPH]

this car is a waste in australia, can you USE its power for transport, legally? NO!

In germany on the autobahn you can atleast

[SuperTamponBandit]

@260KPH only illegal if your caught

[260KPH]

@SuperTamponBandit cool reply, i love it, thanks mate!!!!!!!!!!!

[SuperTamponBandit]

@260KPH :D thanks mate!

[phatGTO1]

i love this car but no offence, vortechs just sound like turbo's and thats gay. why not a nice whine?

[loveyamissuslongtime]

awesome! holdens rule HSV HDT represent

[supersexyroybird]

wtf's with the chevy badges, arnt the new holden ve engines aussie this time, not amerian, besides why put chevy badge on ther, its a commo, be proud its aussie

[samkactus]

Nope, last aussie V8 engine was in the 98 model VT, all since are the LS series, pure Chev USA power plants.

[fredoes]

@samkactus these engines have been made in aus since 01

[TheFordy05]

@samkactus actually holden has gone back to they`re own motors

[Holdmypole]

@TheFordy05 I wish they would. Wish they kept improving and developing the 5L would've been awesome machine if they had. And so cool in the VE. Especially when the VE's designed totally in australia.

[TheFordy05]

@Holdmypole the best thing holden and HSV done was making the GTRS which was a 308 with a 355 stroker kit placed in the power plant which was AUSSIE made

[Holdmypole]

@TheFordy05 Agreed!

[TheFordy05]

@samkactus i have got to disagree with that holden has gone back to the aussie V8 in the VE

[samkactus]

@TheFordy05, nu ah, the V8's are all LS series and all 100% USA, the last Ozzy V8 Commodore where in 98, 99 VT series 1 and the last of the Utes in the VS

[TheHeroSam]

@samkactus i agree 100% LS3, LS2, W427, LT98 (i think in some)

[bumndrass]

@samkactus i hate to be the buzzkillington but theyre australian

[91kient]

@samkactus so?

they are all completely retuned in aus anyway, all thats american in these engine is the metal... which probably isnt even american anyway.

australian LS engines have vastly different tuning than american ones, even a higher limiter.

just like ford, they only use american v8s. difference is they detune there versions

[FoShizzleMyPizzle]

I cannot begin to tell you how much i have argued this point!

[AdamJames989]

@supersexyroybird Nah the engines arnt. But the design is aussie this time.

[3199marcus]

@supersexyroybird fuck yeah im proud of aussie made cars

[jaydnisevil]

@supersexyroybird

What gave you that impression?

All the good holden V8's are American.

5.7, 6.0, 6.2 and the 7.0 are all chevy.

That motor should have gotten a positive displacement blower, instead of a shitty centrifugal. Nothing beast the whine of a +ve displacement blower :D

[blown4six]

@supersexyroybird

Nope, pure USA chevy engines in that VE. Be proud that its got a LSx engine in it and can make the power it does.

[zaknology]

@supersexyroybird i think it's still an american v8 -.- (dont quote me on that).

[frakesey]

@supersexyroybird lol!

[HalfKaztBoy]

@supersexyroybird I completely agree with you. 

[utubenz576]

which would be better the chrysler SRT8 6ltr or this Vauxhaull 6LTR

[Mechknight73]

@utubenz576 This particualr one isn't a Vauxhall, it's an HSV. But either would rip a Chrysler SRT8 a new one if challenged

[zparky100]

awesome. as they say everything is for sale at a price. would you sell your machine????

[Russell270580]

That's TUFF..

[monkeybob69696969]

omg its so pretty :)

[moth3rfck3r]

I just creamed myself

[hankwvu]

And to think, they were going to put cars like this in masses on US roads under the Pontiac name. Then Pontiac goes away. Then when the GM heads try to bring it over as a Chevy, the 'treehuggers' jumped in and shut that idea down. It is sickening to know we will never touch cars like that off of the showroom floors.

[Mechknight73]

@hankwvu It's long wheelbase brother is sneaking in as a police patrol car in 2011

[mathewbruhh]

fuck mate thats a sweet ride

[crossy333]

thats bad ass

[erikcanada]

sone of gun, I want to move to AUS just for the cars!

[Mechknight73]

@erikcanada You could bolt every part on this one on a Pontiac G8. And I do mean every part. All Pontiac did was a few style changes to a VE Holden SS Commodore, on which this car is based

[phpfanboi]

@erikcanada sure just come on over on a boat legal or illegal mate we will take you .

[goalieman3030]

@erikcanada they only have 3

[zephan69]

I have a vortec supercharger on my vx ss. however This is like a hurricane compared to mine which would be like me blowing on a cup of tea.

[jakerolly253]

lol did i see a massive turbo under that engine bay? although at first it looked like the belts for a side mount supercharger :S someone tell me ?

[bjrog2]

Read the video description doofus. Side mount vortech charger :P

[jakerolly253]

shit sorry, well whats the thing that looks like a turbo?

[bjrog2]

Thats the supercharger compressor. They do the same thing as the compressor side of the turbo, but the centre drive shaft is driven by a belt on the supercharger, rather than exhaust gasses on the outlet side (turbo)

[natable1]

superchargers looks similar but isn't.

[Drmand3]

did the people who say this is an Australian car knw that holden and pontiac fuck with each other....holden gets bodies from pontiac...and pimps them out....kind of like ford and saleen....

[Damologist]

@ Drmand3: sorry, you're wrong, Holden doesn't get the bodies from Pontiac. The 04-06 GTO was a Holden Monaro with a different bodykit and the Pontiac G8 was based on the VE Commodore. Nothing from Holden has been based on anything from Pontiac.

[Drmand3]

but holden and gm are related some way...i saw a chevy symbol on another vid of a holden....

[semtex84]

Holden is owned by General Motors, they also used to own Pontiac.

[Bigboomer]

Holden platform... GM engine... then brought state side under the Pontiac name and styling.

[Mechknight73]

@Drmand3 It's clowns sticking Chevy badges on Holdens. There are some exported Holdens that wear Chevy Bowties, but locally, they're all Holdens

[Mechknight73]

@Drmand3 Until 2004, Holden built the G8 and recent GTO coupe. The extent of Pontiac's input was, "change this trim, the bumpers and make it cound like this."

This car is the HSV Club Sport, from Holden's performance tuning division. Still locally designed and assembled here, exported to several countries

[MrWrencher]

what is this car?...I have a 01' WS6 with lots of goodies and seen this video and friend said it was a ford product and I said damn that fast I still dont like it, but then I seen tha engine say chevrolet and all along I thought it looked like a GTO, but still never seen, heard of them and they look like an old person car no offense thats good in sum cases...tha GTO's with 350hp LS1's ran around 13.90-14.30 at best at gatewat in STL. that I've seen and I went 13.08 stock and 12.49 with LT headrs

[samkactus]

Ozzy Holden Specails Vehicles (HSV)

GTS based on the VE Commodore.

The GTS comes std with the LS2, this one has had lots of engine work and mods to go like it does.

[timh18]

doesnt it come standard with an ls3

[samkactus]

no, the following year did, but the first series came out with LS2

[tgr800]

This is an Australian product mate, America isn't the only country that makes cars. And your mate that thinks that its a ford should take his head out of the sand. Also this car is good enough to take on the strip and circuit. I know cos I had one. Check out FIFTH GEAR VX8 or Bathurst V8 Supercars.

[Kingcreole9]

Australian Mate, its from a land down under

[patfromozZ]

the latest pontiac gto was built in australia. badged here as the ''monaro''.

[travisballard90]

what do you have done to this? i have a g8 gxp here state side and was looking to have a similar set up.

[andz0]

pity it can only go in a straight line

[truckinschool]

u should watch the top gear episode with it, comes 0.01 of a second away from an M5 around their track

[patfromozZ]

saw that.....was very impressed.

pisses me off that hsv doesnt offer a super charged factory option.

guess they wouldnt be able to justify the bull shit 150k price tag for the w427.

I mean you can buy an R8 for like 70K and take it to capa. spend 20k on it and it would piss all over the w427 lol.

[benno155]

they do offer a supercharged option now i think.. you can get the walkinshaw option and hsv sends it to them, puts a whipple on and some other stuff all before you get to pick it up.

[disturbedmayhem]

yeah at clayton business park in melbourne theres HSV and walkinshaw in the same park, HSV gets the SS's in and does there shit then they send it to WP and they do thier shit.. $26,000 for the WP upgrade.. But you can remove things such as rims (around $3500) and bonnett scoop (around $2000) to make it cheaper

[mrvictoria]

straight off of the top gear episode? lol

[disturbedmayhem]

Nah i done some racking in a warehouse in clayton business park.. and there was 1/4 of the warehouse on an upper level where walky and HSV stored there cars after they were done.. They had a VZ maloo 1 tonner which looked mint, and a VN 2 door convertable with the badge concept car.. wasnt in very good condition but.. Also they had all the mock up v8 supercars in there that you see around for promos.

[disturbedmayhem]

If you need exhausts from the headers walkinshaw have a heap behind there body shop, straight off the R8s.. and they are 150$.. they have the springs from the R8's there too but not sure how much they sell them for

[bnz500]

Pitty your mum didnt just swallow you.

[8gunnerz]

hey champ, ive got a 2005 vz r8 just wanted to know how much would it be to install the same S/C as the one in this video??

[samkactus]

for those questions go to site link in comments

[MeBallin69]

Hi everyone im not some car nut who knows everything but can anyone plz help

I got a 2009 hsv clubsport 6.2L brand new got it 2 weeks ago

now wat can i do to this car to pimp it out even more? should i put exhaust system in ppl telling me i cnt coz it an auto lol should i get it supercharged??

[samkactus]

If in WA should call MWS - (08) 96412305

[MeBallin69]

thanks mate

[69funkymark69]

hey i no why dont you put on an exhaust and supercharge it!!

[Musso3200]

whats that thing in the boot?

[0thingthing0]

fuel pump?

[ThelenShar]

Its a surge tank. Makes sure there is enough fuel pressure in cases where the main tank might be nearly empty and you go around a corner, or up a hill, or stop suddenly. Just makes sure there is enough fuel :)

[wangavegas1]

Hey Mate,

I am true blue "Ford" man and have a F6 Force 6 but I have to say that has got to be one of the hottest V8's and sweet sounding machines on the planet!!!

Awsome mate, this makes me keen to get into a V8 cheers and post more vids?

[blake20193]

nice man i love the new hsv's i got a new maloo myself and done a bit of work, go like rockets, shit on these fukn rice burner integras and the old rx7's

[jake45730]

Rice KILLER

haha love it

keep it up

[Grogan1988]

now there is abit of Australiana for ya!

[bizon4u]

i was wo ndering if you could help me im looking at buying this ve ss sedan he says the holden 6l has been taken out and it has been replaced with the gts 307kw motor like i seen all receipts for the conversion and all but is there another way u can tell by looking at it

[samkactus]

The 307 VE GTS engine is the LS2 they have a cast number on the drivers side, outside front corner on the top of the cyl head, the number should be 243.

[bizon4u]

where did you get the cheverolet covers from mate they look a treat

[samkactus]

they are GM Performance, try Rocket

[MCBrownie06]

whats in the boot?

[dtd1488]

i think it is a dry sump, which is usually installed in to race cars. it's to lower the center of gravity, and improve engine lubrication

[thejbdman]

and minimises friction. Cause thats how you go faster!!!

[AustraliaTwo]

Partly but No - dry sumped engines are used in racing to prevent foaming of the oil when used in high output motors. There is more oil than usuall (double) travelling from A to B in a dry sumped car thus the benefit is longer servicing intervals and coooler oil; plus a lower center of gravity. The other main reason for a dry sumped engine is that most big block engines don't leave any room for the oil pan thus relocating it elsewhere.

[Smylie10022008]

its a surge tank to make sure engine has always got a constant fuel supply even if all your fuel in the tank is right at the back

[reecerx7]

surge tank with looks like 2 bosch 044s as main pumps

[CodyLeeWatson]

this is a Holden VE 307 GTS,

no it dose not compare to the 09 Mitsubishi evo, and in a few ways yes, it does compare to the pontiac GTO

[newyorkqt1985]

what kind of car is this and who makes it? and is it compared to our pontiac v8 or ours 09 evo?

[45Mang]

ive seen this car in action.... and its performance is amazing

[Mechknight73]

@newyorkqt1985 This is based on the parent car for the Pontiac G8. The Holden Special Vehicles VE Club Sport is essentially a tuned VE Holden Commodore. Australian designed and built, with tuned engine, suspension, brakes, steering and interior, and of course, more aggressive bodywork. The factory supercharged version puts out well over 420 horsepower Tweaked, the figure has been known to be as high as 600

[ONESnTWOS]

i wish we had these in the states the body style is sick!

[tregyslowagogo]

lol love to see ya fully sick heap of shit rice burners up against sumthing like this i just can imagine the tourqe is got a

[keithjackson302]

Legothunder you've actually got your facts wrong. Until the crappy 5.4 modular V8 came into production every 302-351 ever made has produced a higher torque v revs ratio than any 308/304 has.!! A standard AU 5.0 outtorques the first gen3 5.7 (VT Commy) between idle and 4000.

rpm.

On the street torque wins races. Even the 6.2 LS3 lacks bottom end torque, using midrange and top end to make its power. The 5.4 is poxy but I've seen a stock FG XR8 with PD blower make 550rwhp and 1060 nm/tq - not bad

[pewpewjinkz]

you're seriously dumb if you think ford make faster 'stock' cars.

[ikarn21]

hmmm not a huge fan of either car over the other more of a skyline man myself. but yer how come the 168kw starndard faclon can keep up with the 185kw holden??? think about it the ef-(elstage 1) XR8 keeped up and was faster than the vr, vs hsv!

And the XR8 was a starndard 5.0L no diff than the run of the mill falcon. just a diff computer really

[fusiT]

if holden so good then why has ford still got faster cars?

[sucksqueezebangblow]

lol, ford should forget theyre v8's like they did in the 80's n stick to the turboed 6's

[moev250]

im a ford man and i think the same! have seen some tuff ford v8's on here still. but as new cars go the holden v8 is better for now!

[JET87T]

lol thats was the holdens u idiot... that had the turbod 6 in the 80's.... not ford

[ikarn21]

yes vl had a turbo.. but guess what so did the xe and xf falcon. they had to, as the had to have a race car able to keep up with the 8's in the then supercar races. and to be able to race them they had to sell them. 150+ of them i think

[rokonemos]

:o im jelaous... how much aus does it cost?

very nice! thanks

[elhaych4019]

pffttt the 800kw falcon sounds way better harden up pussys

[Legothunder]

Falcon/FPV's will never have the same grunt and torque as a HSV. What you just said is exactly the same as saying that a Tata Nano wil get around the 35% of Autobahn in germany faster than a Thrust SSC. Obviously ain't gonna happen, so that means, that the HSV sounds way better. The whine and grunt of the HSV makes for a true Australian Muscle car. Ford on the other hand, has tried to turbocharge something, and supercharge another. Too many ricers working at Ford Australia.

[d00dmchc]

have a wank.......

[tapper88]

new ford V8's are overcomplicated and suffer becuase of it, quad cam 5.4l just can't produce the power of the 6 litre push rod 8 that holden drop in their cars. F6's destroy HSV's though, theres nothing rice about being the fastest Australian production car with only a 4 litre engine. before you bother to say it, yes the W427 is slightly quicker, but it costs 155k and there aren't many of them, F6 will beat every other stock holden or HSV though, the tests don't lie

[tapper88]

oh btw, just so you know the FG F6 has more torque than ANY other Australian car, so stop talking bullshit

[mujn56]

yeah but this GTS would smoke any Ford piece of shit!!

[tapper88]

if you say so, I've seen 1200rwhp gt's running on methanol, but you're right, this gts would smoke any ford piece of shit........ typical response from an idiot, you're the reason people hate commodores and their drivers

[racky427]

people dont hate commodores only dickheades that get blown off by them

[xkunax]

haha dude pritty sure turo ford beats this LOL?

[chehade3]

mate how can u say that the holden whine and grunt makes for a true aussie car...the engine isnt even aussie...and im not a biased bloke...i like both holden and ford but i gta admit that having heard both the gts and the gt at full throttle, the ford sounds way tougher than the holden...holden only sounds good in the cabin but ones ur outside its very silent n lazy

[sprijic2]

is that a fuel pump in the boot or?

[samkactus]

Yes 2 pumps and swirl pot in boot.

[sprijic2]

coool :) does it smell? great car makes me froth at the mouth. :)

[samkactus]

no smell, has a sealed cover not on in Video

[BoostedXR6T]

NOTHING compares to the sound of a supercharged V8.

Nice smooth power too. Looks like it would be fairly easy to handle without ripping yer head off everytime it comes on boost.

[JEDISAFARI]

My mate uncles got one with a walkinshaw kit and his spent about another 10 grand on proformance parts so far. Smokes everything. Beat a porsche g3 so easy it was shame full.

[sirkilgor]

Awesome Jedisafari, my dad has a HSV GTS (317 one) and is looking at getting an exhaust, air filter and some other stuff from walkinshore (I think thats how you spell it) melbourne... Hopefully he will get it done soon.

[colt777rulz]

Now that is a fucking sexy car..

[4CRWZN]

thats insane.

[andy65656]

thats tough

[alfie35911]

nice ride

[horeR34]

[zoidburggg]

fuck that is hooootttt!!!! that sound is awesome, where's the burnout though? :P

[GoRightGoHolden]

very nice sounding if ford could make a v8 they 2 could make something worthwhile as this

[stevos23]

nice chev my little windsor would eat it
