    HSV's are awesome... I wish I could get my hands on one but they just aren't worth their asking prices... Have you seen the Ecotec Commodore supposedly owned by Peter Brock for $1.5 million? That's how crazy Aussie car prices have become!

    The bloodline of the Toll HSV Dealer Team ClubSport is no less obvious. Distinctive ‘Orange’ body accenting contrasts superbly with the ‘Phantom Black’ paint finish which is joined by five-spoke alloy wheels in “Iron Frost” a pair of ‘HSV Dealer Team’ logos on the rear spoiler and unique badging.
    Like their race team relatives, the under skin specifications are all about peak performance. Here there’s no better way to start than with HSV’s exclusive, high output 6.0litre LS2 V8 (297kW @ 6000rpm and 530Nm @ 4400rpm) coupled to a Tremec M12 six-speed manual transmission. For a precise, sporting chassis response to match there’s HSV Performance Suspension (as fitted to ClubSport R8 models), a set of semi competition Yokohama tyres and an HSV Power Steering Oil Cooler. R8 with stickers unfortunately that was copied straight off the HSV website absolutely nothing different than color combination and badges.... Best HSV IMO the VZs.

    Don't mind the car, but i'm probably going to be flamed for this. The wheels are far too big for my liking.. I'd like some nice thick 17's with some light-weight Enkei rims with a staggered offset.

      If the Turbo Barra had its boost wound up a bit yep.. but this cammed Vz clubby would keep up and likely pass a stock turbo Barra. My VZ clubby makes 332rwkw with just over 600rwnm and can easily keep up with my mates stock turbo barra.. we fang it all over the place all the time ha ha.. when i was stock he would slowly pass me though.. im manual, he’s auto…

      He’s not concerned about re-sale I think.. but I’m sure he’s got all the stock parts if he wanted to put it back that way.. these things were maid to be driven and enjoyed not collected dust for the highest bidder

      A oil pump return spring failed a year after purchasing it. It destroyed the cams, and scored the crank. I had the engine pulled down,crank repaired, reciprocating mass balanced, and put together with all the good stuff as well as mantic single plate organic clutch kit. 13.5k was spent and in my opinion money well spent. The sound and reliability has been mad. It’s still running rich as from its original run in tune done on a 36deg arvo on the newly built engine.

      these cars were built like an old school homologation car like they did when they built the real steel cars. They were built as a track styled car, thats why they had 18s with semi slicks on them. Makes them more special as they were built as to what a real HSV should be used for. Enjoy your SS

    All VZ HSV 6 speed manuals got the Tremec M12, Hasn't got leather or the upgraded R8 seats.. So basically its a base model HSV VZ club sport with a orange stripe and dealer team decals.
    the best thing is the low build number.
    Back in the day I think Id rather a HSV VZ R8 with same gearbox but better leather racing seats and 6 piston AP racing brakes standard plus choice of colours.
    Also blasphemy fitting HDT wheels to a Genuine HSV... Sorry just being honest.

    • @RossReviewsau
      @RossReviewsau  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      im pretty sure not all VZs got the M12.. and this also had better dampers + constant ratio steering rack for better track performance. i wish it had the leather.. but again that was heavier.. so idk weight savings

    • @TheOzwoz
      @TheOzwoz 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also had a power steering cooler that none of the R8’s got. Also have the original rims.
