@WTSMiniEvenniaLOL cosmetic and interior stuff. rear tail lights are difference. suspension is a bit tougher i think (could be very wrong), but its mainly the stuff inside, like TV big radio system thing, leather seats, all that crap. dont think there is a difference in power.
southern outlet in launceston haha classic, pretty sure thats where it starts to go uphill so would most likely be faster than this, and better in the dry also
why commodores or falcons are soo popular in australia, i can think of alot better, faster, more economical (i mean come on, everyone knows american cars drink petrol like theres no tommarow, and much better styling for the same price as those.
cool, hey i ended up getting a 2001 VX Commodore V6 supercharged, last of the VX series its pretty sick, im intending to JDM mod it tho, because nobody's ever done that before... I've already ordered a pod filter and also a 4" exhaust N1 style exhaust.
@HomasterX id say the sv6 supercharged would have better acceleration, but ss would get a better top speed, and the sound of a 8 is just great. but then the supercharge whistle is good too, just my opinion im not some absolute pro at cars
When i was Looking to buy a car i test drove a xr8 and a xr6 turbo they were nothing what i exspected i jumped into a ve berlina i was sold they go alot harder off the mark and a much nicer ride i love both brands of car but i was sold on the good old holden ;)
getting rid of my gay ass fuck r33 skyline for one of these in a couple of days. spent pretty much a brand new SSV amount trying to get it quick and hell it is but its not cool doing it and a car that sneezes WTF was i thinking fucking fast and furious con jobed me hard should of stuck to my roots and got a real car
@jamual8 Ssv is just over 5 for 0-100. Bit of a difference. Not that this measures performance. Let's see your xr6 N/a take off at 100kmph vs this SSv. :/
screw fords!! those ford fans need to know they has l6 turbo holden does not. well both produces almost the same power, pop in a aftermarket turbo and some ecu tuning, it will screw many fords that passby. for the v8, fords produces crappy v8. while the holden gets a nice v8 and a supercharger too almost getting 480KW
Have to laugh at these pissing contest. Xr6T and SS are both great cars and some of the best value for money in the world. I now drive a 195kW V6 Calais V and it has more than enough power for what you need. Who really cares if one car is 0.1 of a second faster to 100. Does that really mean much????
@vxclubsport569 FG XR6T and G6ET are actually over half a second faster to 100, and will do 80-120 km/h in 3.1 seconds (same as an E90 M3) due to the huge overboosted 586NM torque being available over a 2750 rpm range instead of 530NM at a single point in the V8 rev range. However, both are very nice cars for a relatively low price. Get the Ford I6T for the speed, or the GM V8 for the sound, all up to personal preference.
from a hsv fan is admit the f6 is quicker then anything hsv has down a straight line but the gts would beat anything fpv has around a track so its pretty even
agreed man - fpv needs more work on their suspension and some wider tyres to match the gts round a track. But mid 12's down the quarter from factory is awesome.
Dont believe any car manufacturer makes their own Turbo, usually always Garret turbos. haha your mums car.. you lost all credability haha go back to your bmx kid lol
Holden need to release a turbo like the fg range otherwise its game over, the fg f6 is ridiculously quick ! the hsv 7L w427 goes only 0.2 sec faster then the fg f6 and the pricee difference is about 80 grand , Holden def need a turbo and fast
@OZpodster yeah just look on wheels mag all fantasy shit 5000kw s/c 6.2l hsv have shit them selves ford has raped them with 270kw fgxr6t pissing on 317kw r8 and if u think different your pulling your cock and thats coming from a hsv fan ford has got it all over us know its not funny holden got nothing up their sleeve because chev got nothing in the states and for bringing out a s/c r8 maybe....... there only going to match the f6 so there probbly wont because they will embarress them selves
what a tosser ford has to turbo a six to get a decent car the v8's r rubbish , and if we turbo a 6 ltr we know where the f6 will be , behind and going backwwards fast
ok.. and cars that r boosted like turbo/supercharger that weigh the same and still win when the have less power.. is it just cos its a boosted application?
hahah mate ive got a 3000gt twin turbo with about 300 awkw ie all wheel drive, that drinks a shitload more than any of my mates v8, but then it shits on their cars too...lol
@narcronics r33 skyline 2.5lt ahahahah are a pice of shit compare to the ssv ve 6.0lt in the long run the you would only see the back tail lights of the ssv when its flying past you in ur rice burner pice of crap
oooh aaah, I timed this at 5.6 sec 0-100. colklink00, I'm not going to debate capacity versus turbo technology but it's obvious that nissan know how to build a faster car. How many trans failures have you actually heard of? 2 or 3? Big deal. Against the worldwide sales figures, and those were only because they were thrashing the crap out of them. Fact is GT-R's are faster even the older ones do 4.5s 0-100.....Having problems with traction control slowing you down? Answer...get four wheel drive!
You also have to take into account that the holden uses an over glorified truck transmission. As for the W427? Just can't justify the $70k price difference over the GTS. And niether could many others going by the fact HSV couldn't sell half of them...
@theoneguyi7 The engine is sourced from the Corvette. The cost of the 7.0L in a crate would be $35 - $40K easy and not too mention there are less HSV 7.0L's then there are Corvettes - think about it. As for a truck transmission - at least it's strong. Lamborghini built tractors before they produced a high performance car so your point is a little lost like your knowledge on cars. What you can justify is that you cannot afford anything worthwhile.
@AustraliaTwo You just said it yourself; 35-40k. how does that represent the 70k price difference (including exchange)? Less W427s because they can't sell them (as per original post). Justify truck trannies? Why don't they put a Road Ranger in it?
I knowLamborghini was a tractor manufacterer, as most car makers of today had they're proffesions in the 50's. Doesn't mean my car knowledge loses out to your Top Gear Expertise syndrome (TGEs).
@AustraliaTwo And not justifying anything worth while? I own several motorcycles which are infinitely more exciting than an over glorified "Commodore". 0-100 in 3.9 secs? try 0-100 in under 2 secs....
I would rather a HSV W427 0-100kmh is 3.something secs.
So can you imagine a guy in a GTR on the highway then a HSV W427 comes revvin up his ass i think the guy in the gtr would need a change of pants. lol that was a bit too CORNY.
You cannot compare the new GTR or any GTR for that matter to the W427. The GTR is a pure sports car with iincredible technology and performance. The W427 is simply a commodore with a bigger engine and a few other minor improvements. Still a nice car however
@DrBoyton Fact - mate of mine buys a VE SS wagon ( brand new - Dec. 09 for $39K) has the cam and heads done plus dyno and re-tune for ten grand. It does 0-100Km in 3.9 sec - Fact. I don't see your point except that you give money to the same people who tried to kill your grandfather. You need a shrink mate.
@AustraliaTwo Ahh, so you're racist too. That makes sense to judge a car by the country it was developed in. I bet your "mates" straight line warrior couldn't lap the 'Gring anywere near the times the GTR could. In my opinion, a performance car should be judged, not just in it's 0-100 times, but in IT'S OVERALL PERFORMANCE.
@AustraliaTwo 0-100 times are mearly an indication of performance. So if your "mate" want's constantly accelerate to 100km/h, then stop, repeat, I guess he's onto a winner then in your opinion (this is subjectional as it's a modified vehicle).
@theoneguyi7 My dear boy - the first Ferrari my family owned was a 1962 250GTE Lusso which my grandfather bought back in '62 so my father could drive as a 19 year old. I couldn't give a fuck what you think.
@AustraliaTwo You obviously do give a fuck what I think, given you tried to ridicule my ideals before hand. I don't care what your'e grandfather drove when he was 19 (what made you think I did?). Please stop bringing up irrelevant arguements trying to validate yourself, as you're no different to any other high school car fan....
@AustraliaTwo Have to agree with theoneguyi7, his argument is atleast validated by facts, why you would use try to use an irrelevant fact about your families life does not help you in the slightest. Your grandfather drove an old ferrari, mmm, yeah I guess that can validate any point you wish to make in the future.
GTR blows - all Nisan know what to do is bolt a hair dryer on and it goes fast (ooh how'd they do it-magic!) shame it looks like shit & eats its own trans.
ps BMW M3's don't have a V6 & you might want to check the price (new) & size difference.
Hsv w427 does 0-100 in 4.5 sec ! loll .. for the money it costs you can buy a r35GTR which does it in mid - low 3's and handles milion times better , all holden know how to do is dump a big ass v8 in there andd expect power... a stock standard 2002 m3 bmw v6! will blow the doors of a ve clubsport 6L... they go alright but for the engine size it should be alot more power
too bad it's a ricer. these are family cars, 4 door 5 seat vehicles with a boot and all, unlike the cheap upped r33. also from factory the SSV can run 5.5s, and the XR6T's in 5 seconds.. from FACTORY. take this car over the r33 ricer anyday.
SS manuals have been known to run 0-100 in 5.5 secs as per holden's "on paper" claim.. I myself have an FG XR6T, so I wouldn't know, but I do know my XR6T runs 0-100 in ~5 seconds from factory.
370GT skyline sedan, yeah? Available in japan only atm, so not much info I can find on it. Fabulous it can run a 5second speed for a NA 6 cylinder, unfortunately, it's approximately double the price of the Holden Commodore SS..
So for that price, you'd find even a faster car than the 370GT. *shrugs*
The SS is very restricted in standard form. What I mean is it doesn't breathe enough thru standard headers and exhaust exactly like your FG. If you put a cold air intake, 3 inch exhaust, mafless tune you will achieve 320Kw. From there if you put a cam and and race ported heads in the think you'll get 420Kw - 850Nm and 0 - 100km in 4.0 sec. It will cost just under $10,000; if you want more then you bolt on a Harrop 2300 SC and you'll get over 700Kw easy.
agreed. holden keep thinking that bigger engines = better, but haven't fixed the most needed parts in the cars. i blaim GM's "corvette" style engineering for the crap we get here in australia.
as for the above, awesome knowledge on tuning, unfortunately, i own an fg xr6t, so wouldn't know much about output from an ss.
any info on what i should do first on my car? i'm thinking a quad exhaust system definitely for look, with it going straight from cat back for a louder note.
@AustraliaTwo as most cars are "very restricted" in standard form to reach drive by sound regs, and anti pollution crap. I own a Speed Triple that has a full three into one exhaust with a delete cat and the baffle pulled out (my Hayabusa is a different story). it's a lot less restricted, but is worthy of a defect should Mr Plod want to....
@AustraliaTwo And a Harrop 2300 SC? is that not a kit for a 5.4 v8? It'd a bit wierd replacing a GT40 turbo on the six for a roots blower for 700kw..... "easy"
it im not mistaken is this the new skyline that they just brought out and if it is and u wanted to have a street race u aint going any speed higher than 110km because the on board computer in that car restricts it on public roads to bad for u but i do know that that 370GT can only have the stock rims unless u make them custom to the same standard ass the stock ones with the little nubs inside the rim
and its the to hold the tyre on properly because there is soo much rear wheel power that the tyers come off the rims :( but ill still perfer the VE HSV over that (there is no restrictions on this one :) and its the fastest production car in Australia :D
Sorry, just found the specs under the american "infinity" name..
It's quick, and sure it's faster for only a V6.. but it's like buying a nissan gtr over a porshe 911 turbo.. *shrugs* I still rather the commy than that shit looking skyline 370gt.
Couldn't have put it better! No wonder there's little manufacturing left in Australia as people get sucked into foreign cars like lambs. BMW, Merecedes, Audi, VW, Toyota, Hyundai and it goes on and on. It's laughable but sad at the same time.
no wayy, SS should be hitting around 6.5 imo, correct me if im wrong, my peugeot 206 gti does it in 7.5 so im pretty sure a v8 would beat my v4, but hey, french power ;)
Rofl eh Utes pull girls more and much better quality girls too. Plus all these Turbos and Special Vehicles(HSV and FPV) will end up becoming history and will make their owners great money just like the old GT's have:D
holden and ford are both shit, stop arguing you bogans. go and earn some real money and buy a decent car. my maserati rapes all of your shitty cars, and pulls girls that aren't dirty bogan bitches.
Great clip, i love the ssv there awsom cars, iv been a holden fan for as long as i can remember but i still think to this day holden need to bring out some monster v6 turbo n shit all over fords f6 turbos. holdens v8's shit all over ford but the turbos need to start coming in

Hi. I'm selling a 2.5 inch difilippo exhaust system.
I'm only selling the exhaust, high flow cats and the tips that I installed with it.
The whole exhaust is stainless steel and the cats are near new as they have only been on for about 8 months and not done many km.
This exhaust on a stock vz hsv with 4into1 extractors, otr intake and tune it made 283rwkw and.with an auto so it's definately flowing well.

You cannot compare the new GTR or any GTR for that matter to the W427. The GTR is a pure sports car with iincredible technology and performance. The W427 is simply a commodore with a bigger engine and a few other minor improvements. Still a nice car however

@DrBoyton Fact - mate of mine buys a VE SS wagon ( brand new - Dec. 09 for $39K) has the cam and heads done plus dyno and re-tune for ten grand. It does 0-100Km in 3.9 sec - Fact. I don't see your point except that you give money to the same people who tried to kill your grandfather. You need a shrink mate.

@AustraliaTwo Ahh, so you're racist too. That makes sense to judge a car by the country it was developed in. I bet your "mates" straight line warrior couldn't lap the 'Gring anywere near the times the GTR could. In my opinion, a performance car should be judged, not just in it's 0-100 times, but in IT'S OVERALL PERFORMANCE.
theoneguyi7 1 year ago
@AustraliaTwo 0-100 times are mearly an indication of performance. So if your "mate" want's constantly accelerate to 100km/h, then stop, repeat, I guess he's onto a winner then in your opinion (this is subjectional as it's a modified vehicle).

@theoneguyi7 My dear boy - the first Ferrari my family owned was a 1962 250GTE Lusso which my grandfather bought back in '62 so my father could drive as a 19 year old. I couldn't give a fuck what you think.
AustraliaTwo 1 year ago
@AustraliaTwo You obviously do give a fuck what I think, given you tried to ridicule my ideals before hand. I don't care what your'e grandfather drove when he was 19 (what made you think I did?). Please stop bringing up irrelevant arguements trying to validate yourself, as you're no different to any other high school car fan....
theoneguyi7 1 year ago
@AustraliaTwo Have to agree with theoneguyi7, his argument is atleast validated by facts, why you would use try to use an irrelevant fact about your families life does not help you in the slightest. Your grandfather drove an old ferrari, mmm, yeah I guess that can validate any point you wish to make in the future.

GTR blows - all Nisan know what to do is bolt a hair dryer on and it goes fast (ooh how'd they do it-magic!) shame it looks like shit & eats its own trans.
ps BMW M3's don't have a V6 & you might want to check the price (new) & size difference.
colklink00 2 years ago
Hsv w427 does 0-100 in 4.5 sec ! loll .. for the money it costs you can buy a r35GTR which does it in mid - low 3's and handles milion times better , all holden know how to do is dump a big ass v8 in there andd expect power... a stock standard 2002 m3 bmw v6! will blow the doors of a ve clubsport 6L... they go alright but for the engine size it should be alot more power

a 15 year old r33 skyline 2.5L with fount mount and exhaust can do 5 seconds flat. This is not impressive at all.
Narcronics 2 years ago
too bad it's a ricer. these are family cars, 4 door 5 seat vehicles with a boot and all, unlike the cheap upped r33. also from factory the SSV can run 5.5s, and the XR6T's in 5 seconds.. from FACTORY. take this car over the r33 ricer anyday.
VangelonPanos 2 years ago 2
Obviously you didn't watch the video.
This SSV just ran ~6 seconds 0-100 downhill.
now lets Compare this car to the current 370GT skyline 4 door, 5 seat sedan
0-100 in 5.4 seconds from factory. This is a NON turbo V6.
Narcronics 2 years ago
SS manuals have been known to run 0-100 in 5.5 secs as per holden's "on paper" claim.. I myself have an FG XR6T, so I wouldn't know, but I do know my XR6T runs 0-100 in ~5 seconds from factory.
370GT skyline sedan, yeah? Available in japan only atm, so not much info I can find on it. Fabulous it can run a 5second speed for a NA 6 cylinder, unfortunately, it's approximately double the price of the Holden Commodore SS..
So for that price, you'd find even a faster car than the 370GT. *shrugs*
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
The SS is very restricted in standard form. What I mean is it doesn't breathe enough thru standard headers and exhaust exactly like your FG. If you put a cold air intake, 3 inch exhaust, mafless tune you will achieve 320Kw. From there if you put a cam and and race ported heads in the think you'll get 420Kw - 850Nm and 0 - 100km in 4.0 sec. It will cost just under $10,000; if you want more then you bolt on a Harrop 2300 SC and you'll get over 700Kw easy.
AustraliaTwo 2 years ago
agreed. holden keep thinking that bigger engines = better, but haven't fixed the most needed parts in the cars. i blaim GM's "corvette" style engineering for the crap we get here in australia.
as for the above, awesome knowledge on tuning, unfortunately, i own an fg xr6t, so wouldn't know much about output from an ss.
any info on what i should do first on my car? i'm thinking a quad exhaust system definitely for look, with it going straight from cat back for a louder note.
VangelonPanos 2 years ago
@AustraliaTwo as most cars are "very restricted" in standard form to reach drive by sound regs, and anti pollution crap. I own a Speed Triple that has a full three into one exhaust with a delete cat and the baffle pulled out (my Hayabusa is a different story). it's a lot less restricted, but is worthy of a defect should Mr Plod want to....
theoneguyi7 1 year ago
@AustraliaTwo And a Harrop 2300 SC? is that not a kit for a 5.4 v8? It'd a bit wierd replacing a GT40 turbo on the six for a roots blower for 700kw..... "easy"
theoneguyi7 1 year ago
it im not mistaken is this the new skyline that they just brought out and if it is and u wanted to have a street race u aint going any speed higher than 110km because the on board computer in that car restricts it on public roads to bad for u but i do know that that 370GT can only have the stock rims unless u make them custom to the same standard ass the stock ones with the little nubs inside the rim
wings3Dmaster 2 years ago
and its the to hold the tyre on properly because there is soo much rear wheel power that the tyers come off the rims :( but ill still perfer the VE HSV over that (there is no restrictions on this one :) and its the fastest production car in Australia :D

Couldn't have put it better! No wonder there's little manufacturing left in Australia as people get sucked into foreign cars like lambs. BMW, Merecedes, Audi, VW, Toyota, Hyundai and it goes on and on. It's laughable but sad at the same time.
