    Well the HSV Enhanced engine should have:
    Power: 180KW @ 4800rpm
    Torque: 400NM @ 3800rpm

    and it would probably have some pretty HSV Enhanced badges, other than that it would be a normal VN SS.
    We got rep back, yaaay!

    One way to get details - HSV Sales brochure. Not all that many Enhanced VN's made as HSV was really in the early years at this point.

    They may have a dash tag like in the photo.

    It has the dash tag, build plate and all, full electric windows lol. EXCEPT the guy is selling it to me with a VR clubby 185i motor wont give me the original VN one because its had too much spent on it.

    One of the main Enhanced upgrades was the Level 3 dash with trip computer. Electric windows, mirrors & aerial. Probably a steering wheel and some changes to the trim cloth/seats. You may be lucky and get some bigger brakes. The uprated shocks are probably long gone. The main upgrade for the Enhanced HSV's being the engine and body kits.

    look for a knock sensor, it will be near the engine mounts on either side of the block, it's a round black plug aout the size of an oil pressure switch, and it has a big plastic plug on it with a loom going into the fire wall, if it doesn't have this then it's not 185kw.
