Top Gear UK Holden Commodore HSV VT series2 LS1 GTSR/VXR8 UK export

This is a Video i found on youtube filmed circa 2000 and I reuploaded with the correct aspect ratio and more fitting title, Thanks to TheNZDaddy for the original rip and upload, the first Commodore fitted with 5.7 litre v8 Callaway C4B from the corvette (Angry lion wears a bowtie!!) this VT platform was used until 2006 and updated to final VZ specification (VT-VX-VY-VZ), then the VE platorm was released which is the current model which was updated to series 2. Great vid I have been looking for this for around 10 years now!! I do not advertise on my channel's videos nor do I recieve any money for them these are purely a hobby and for viewing pleasure, enjoy!!

@holmesdan1 No this was the old top gear it predates fifthgear

[iwasntere]

Does the sill say GTS-R???? As in the legendary the VS GTS-R? Or am i just tripping?

Was that some special package for the UK or something?

[ucwepn]

@iwasntere Yep the uk export was called the GTS R for some reason, but was actually an ordinary Aus spec GTS

only requiring servicing every 50,000 miles - bullshit.

@holmesdan1 You compare performance by evaluating the cars' achievements in the same competition: Group A racing.

[holmesdan1]

@LTD92DC but how do u compare performance when theres such a big difference in price, u get what u pay fr

[LTD92DC]

@holmesdan1 But we weren't talking about price, we were talking about comparable performance. You've just admitted that the Holdens weren't a patch on the Nissans and if you like, we can compare the VT to the Skyline equivalent, the R34, and see how that comparison turns out. Hint: it will probably turn out like the comparison I just made.

@LTD92DC and by comparing the 2 im talking about vk and vl commodores to the godzilla which are the 1s that were racing it not the vt shit dick

[holmesdan1]

@LTD92DC all u retards that go on bout how the godzilla ate them, go look at the price difference between the 2 if u were to buy them new frm the factory u would hope the godzilla would win if it didnt u would be pretty disapointed, spend the difference on the holden it would eat fr breakfast then shit it out the exhaust
