Great review of the VF Redline. Love the supercharger upgrade. Nice to see a review of car that’s been worked by Walter at Oztek. Great looking and sounding car. Would have been a lot of fun to drive. Real credit to the owner.
Exactly. I had a VF SV6 hire car in NZ and man it was so nice and even for a V6 it got to 200 pretty easily. Holden finally made great cars and then shut up shop.
I have the same sc setup on a s1 Vf with 460kw at wheels. It's now my dream car as I wasn't expecting much and was surprised when I got it back. I'm a rotary guy but wanted a V8 before they were gone. I should have got a blown V8 decades ago! Bang for buck winner of all my cars so far. Fantastic. It's on 7psi.
@@garyw6404 Hi mate. It's also the S1 SSV redline model and it was okaaaay stock, but came alive with just the exhaust and cold air feed/ecu tune. I had to save up for the blower and cam setup and added them a few months later. I have a rotary rx7 that does 10 second quarter mile times and I thought the V8 would be nothing on the rotary. Driving back home from the shop it nearly killed me. I recalibrated and gave the car more respect. It's easily as fast and feels faster than the rotary which took over 6 months to build and the V8 took 5 days. I couldn't have been more wrong assuming the V8 would be average at best.
im getting a ss and my uncle has a supercharger in his garage and i asked and he said he will install it foe me for my 18th cant wait to post the best when i enventully get the ride
This is the perfect v8, manual, sounds AMAZING and incredible power! 0-100 in a any decent v8 is a not impressive due to traction! My 300rwkw turbo falcon was great but my v8 at the same power is hopeless down low.
Can we take a minute to appreciate what a build is...this. big blower, cam, brake upgrade etc...NOT a p plate spec evoke with a droning cat back exhaust, bob jane specials and stickers everywhere.
i used to be able the spin my vu 6 s wheels to 120 in second sliding in the wet his wheels are going 100 but the car wasn't is what im saying . tacho for speed runs thru gearbox so whayever those coggs are doing is what the cars doing .speedo don't run of the front wheels .
Definitely a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Like the charming psychopath that drives the school bus during the day and eats the liver of teenage girls at night. A tastefully modified car.
Theres no way in hell he made 560 wheel killowat on 98 with just a blower and cam not to mention it looks extremely slow for that power i bet it makes low 400 killowat on 98
It’s 560kw at the hubs, and the heads have been done valves lifters, just bottom end stock.. it may look slow but trust me this was no 400kw V8 I’ve been in many..
Its nice but an FG XR6 with a few mods will do it with more power, better economy and more reliability as well as flying much further under the radar. Truth.
A stock vf redline 1 or 2 would beat that all day long from 0 to 100km 100% all the time, even if she had slicks on, way to much power and cant put that power to the ground, different if she was made for the drags and set up for the drags, but even then, being a manual you cant get take off even with the lunch control which is not done at all? 🦘🦘👌👌✌✌ Still good to see people doing up a redline, mine is the series 1 with Brembo's on the back as well. Timed at 0 to 100 at 4.8 seconds and totally stock running gear as well, i get it but, each to their own. 🦘🦘👌👌✌✌😎😎 Also 2hats happening to your BF FORD F6 mate is it finished yet or still at home and taking advantage of the best HOLDEN'S ever Built mate. You should do a update of your F6 mate, have you taken any photos of the damage, meaning that the quote for it must be at least 8 to 10K for sure ,which technical its a right off get paid out and then buy it back from insurance and then fix it in your own time. I bet thats what your going to do,as its only got what 68K on the clock right, at the time you smashed it running up someone's ass at a set of lights, the car in front of me started to move, but stopped for some reason,, which i have done as well, when i had my VT 5LT berlina. 🦘🦘👌👌✌✌
VF THE WORLD!!🦍🌏🚀
I js finished rewatching your 750hp au review. haha

hope to see more from that shop in the future.. beautiful example
I think Holden nailed the design of the last VF commodore, definitive and aggressive looking. It’s my first choice for my next car

They did 100%
VF Commodore V8 is my dream car since i saw NASCAR with Chevy SS on Real Racing 3 game. Greetings from Brazil
They're awesome cars for sure! Thanks for watching
havnt watched nascar but love hearing they used the vfs in their races
The man bought it brand new and he chose the manual gearbox 💪
He knew the assignment
Drove it all the way from nsw to wa......sheeshhhhhh
Big drive 🤘 respect

Sounds like you built a ripper!
@@RossReviewsau I didn't, it was Dale at castle hill performance in Sydney.
Have the S1 manual redline not yet at the blower stage yet but the ground works done...353rwkw NA

They’re sleeper for a reason 🤫
Derek was a legend and love the build.
Was a top G

Nice work as always Ross! Brisbane is waiting. 👍
Thanks, I'll try to get there soon!✈️
Love it! Straight 🔥🔥🔥 I WILL own one, one day... soon!
Get out there and get one mate! 💪🇦🇺
A beautiful machine mate,imagine what we'd have today if they didn't shutdown including Ford as well 😢 great one Johnny thanks brah.
It’s truly a shame, we miss those days
Love the tshirt, brother
Glad you noticed 💪
Awesome stuff, you know I love myself a good old blown VF sleeper... ;)
The best kind of sleeper, right?
Makes me feel like a criminal NOT having my gen5 Camaro SS 6.2 manual modified lol.hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿
You are wanted!!! 👮♀️👀
Ross reminds me of Adam LZ. Esp in those pulls, i see a young Adam 👌🏻
appreciate it

Solid weekend cruiser. 👍
Agreed!

Couldn't agree more! This was just too much to get the power down off the line
Great video and car! Awesome
Cheers, glad you enjoyed it!
Another great RR. Even had a couple of good facial expressions😉😂. Great sleeper build love sound of that thing. 😉🇦🇺👊
thanks brother
Really nice VF
She’s a beauty
That thing is off its head. Sounds incredible. Why have a HSV when you cane have this 😍
this is awesome
Get rid of the oem mufflers. Add DPE mufflers with factory bimodal. It’ll sound SOOOO much better!!!
Think he just wants that “quite” option.. but I agree I’d go louder
I gotta get a supercharger for my vf 6 liter ute you've inspired me Ross
DO IT
You should definitely change the back wheels and tyres so you can actually feel the power. No point spinning unless it's for skids only.
That love shirt Johnno! Winners are grinners ! TF he won.
Glad you noticed ✊😤
Love your work.
Cheers!
At the very least we can say, that before the Australian car industry died, we made this. We were right there making monsters.
Was a special car
still worth the same as when they came out new...insane!
Easily
Nice review. What brand/type of tyres is this car running?
Not sure🤣
How much boost was he running
Old school new technology, once you know how to drive 700hp feels just like the 400/1300kg we grew up with lol fast boats
Tuff generation 😤
Gosh dang I love this car!
Hot 🥵
Good luck getting any of that power down through them factory HF20s!! 245s? Not a chance!! 😀 Fun though ;-)
traction delete lol
Got to get some ToyoR888R rubber on the back of this bad boy.
💯 needed
@ Mate, come to Adelaide and we can do a vid with my heavily modified Whippled stang tuned by one of the US big boys.
Debadge that beauty and now it’s the ULTIMATE SLEEPERRR
😈😈😈😈
Debadging is a top idea. I love a badge free vehicle. and I go for a stock exterior to avoid police attention.
I wish some V8 Falcons would be good competition for money and sleepers. Theyre all expensive and rare.
They are a lot more rare to see sadly

SUPER CLEAN!
Most wanted vehicle by Methaniel and Methany in Vic
I think you're talking about a V6 VY buddy
Supercharger or turbo
I like turbo a little more but supercharged is probably the better option
Here I was hoping it would have been a Mitsubishi 380 test.😅
Still looking
Great car.
Very well done
Awesome 👍🇦🇺
Thanks mate! 💪
Great car ..
Make Holdens great again
Love the car....true sleeper ....majic set up.....gotta love forced induction..Johnny hates his job....not....
It was perfect 🥵😤
Sick👍🙂❤️
🇦🇺✊
In the words of the 10 times Bathurst champ, VK is my favorite model Commodore.
🤘🇦🇺
Love the Holden in this state of tune💪 , but im sticking with my XR6 Sprint😁
Fair
No wipertech test?
Would you believe me if I honestly forgot to do the test 💀 I’m only human I guess..
@RossReviewsau I was waiting for no jets again lol
i used to be able the spin my vu 6 s wheels to 120 in second sliding in the wet his wheels are going 100 but the car wasn't is what im saying . tacho for speed runs thru gearbox so whayever those coggs are doing is what the cars doing .speedo don't run of the front wheels .
the timing gear i use is run off GPS so it's completely separate timer.. its accurate
Is this some kind of Chevy?
Chevy SS in America 🇺🇸
@RossReviewsau boiled egg soup
Only the Maloo is perfect....lol....ya goofy m8te from Australia
I do love a Maloo
Kiwis can fly$%#@😂
✈️😂
Probably the best car you can get for 50k
its so damn good
Nice car but my definition of a sleeper is very different to yours. 🙂
i guess we have different ideas. this looks stock tho n is making twice the power
Definitely a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Like the charming psychopath that drives the school bus during the day and eats the liver of teenage girls at night. A tastefully modified car.
very tastefully done
Sad it’ll probably get stolen if you leave it at Kmart for an hour…
Let’s hope not 🥲

Lol don't be a hater , Ross has seen the video on the dyno and it's actually 562.5 kw at the wheels to be exact
Its nice but an FG XR6 with a few mods will do it with more power, better economy and more reliability as well as flying much further under the radar. Truth.
Nah 😂
It’s not the same
6.5 is terrible
It’s frying tires man
I dont get why people put 15k+ into the engine to have 200 dollar tyres on the back either haha
Nice car,its amazing how strong the standard drivelines are in these holdens
Nice V8. Not a fan off Manual cars.
I love a manual especially a in a v8 😍🚨
Probably because you can't drive one
A wagon tho👌sup ross
he had a VF wagon, sold it maybe last week haha
Love every shape

Also 2hats happening to your BF FORD F6 mate is it finished yet or still at home and taking advantage of the best HOLDEN'S ever Built mate.
You should do a update of your F6 mate, have you taken any photos of the damage, meaning that the quote for it must be at least 8 to 10K for sure ,which technical its a right off get paid out and then buy it back from insurance and then fix it in your own time.

0-100 is irrelevant the rolling power is why you build this
I'd like to see your s1 vf beat that monster lol maybe you should stfu and let the adults talk
