Default 4 door GTO My aussie daily drive

Here's a few pic's of my 04 VY commodore(the aussie family hack that bread your GTO). She's my daily driver






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

Mods etc

Ls1 232/234 comp cam, comp pushrods, PAC springs. 85mm throttle body and ported LS6 intake manifold, orrsom otr intake with mafless tune
GM motorsport ripshifter 3.9 diff
Lowered with Kings springs and monroe shocks

Heres dyno sheet, we use rwkw's(rear wheel kilowatts) in aus so not sure what the translates to in HP

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!

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

Default Question for the Guys Down Under

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 **** 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.
