It's a SV8 the base model of the V8's in aus.

Sweet ride.
I believe its 746W per hp, so you've got.... 272,300W

A little more than 365whp because the conversion is a decimal. Nice!

Sweet ride man! The underhood shot looks mostly like an 04 GTO.

Same car just with 4 doors and different front. Our commodore in this shape started in 97 the monaro/GTO came out in late 02 here and made it's way over to you guys(not sure when). Mechanically identical we had 5.7's all the time our HSV models got the Ls2 in late 04 onwards

Very Nice!!!!! :thumb:

We didn't get them til '04. Nice ride.

Mines an 04 VY in late 02 they went to a square shape, heres a VT 00 model the more rounded shape as your GTO's, sorry it's a v6 stockie:emb:

for some reason it kind of reminds me of a caddy catera

i was just trying to think of the name of that caddy 1995black, they look almost identical!!

The Speed Channel shows some races from down under. V8 Super Cars.
With all the decals and exotic paint jobs it's tough to tell what all is racing. I beleive the Holden racing a G8? True?

I was watching V8 Super Cars too. Those sequential gear boxes are sweet. Really nice cars.

yeah. I think a lot of people gave the caddy shit for being basically an imported entry level car, but i'm sure it was 10000x better than the entry level caddy of just 15 years earlier, lol.
