**anton1o** · 13-06-2006, 07:25 PM

Well im just wondering was there ever a ' VN HSV 6cylinder' released.. 1991 Model

Ive got a freind who persuists to say he has 1, due to there being badges, and plates to say its a HSV..

But i just cant find NO proof that there was 1 made

October 1988 VN SV 3800 ( V6 )
March 1989 VN SV89 ( V8 )
September 1989 VN SV 5000 ( V8 )
March 1990 VN HSV 8 Plus ( V8 )
June 1990 VN Club Sport ( V8 )

i dont believe there was...theres alot of 6's running round with HSV Badges..check his VIN plater under d hood

lol, reread your quote there, look at the first one listed "October 1988 VN SV 3800" that is a hsv and well, they didnt make a 3.8ltr v8

**stocky** · 13-06-2006, 07:34 PM

yeah it would be an sv3800

**anton1o** · 13-06-2006, 07:34 PM

yes, but he has said its a 1991 Model and thats a 1989 so 3year's.. is a bit of a jump ay..

What should the VIN number say?

**greenfoam** · 13-06-2006, 07:35 PM

Yup they built quite a few HSV 3800's you'll see them getting around if you pay attention, little bit quicker than a stocker

**HoZy** · 13-06-2006, 07:35 PM

I got the SV 3800 motor in my car, Had it transplanted because I found it for a good price, Few minor differences, Nothing to really brag about, Yet I have no plates saying it's HSV though, but I do have a letter somewhere that I got mailed to me confirming engine number as a SV 3800 motor.

Cheers

P.S- Mines a S1 motor... An it's a SV 3800....... That's the strange part................ I dont fkn get it...... But then again, The heads an manifold were changed to S2 lol.........

EDIT:

Your friends looks like a HSV+ Berlina?!? Commodore......

SV 3800 and HSV+6

**anton1o** · 13-06-2006, 07:44 PM

Since its brining up a few queries heres the rest of the pics..

**greenfoam** · 13-06-2006, 08:06 PM

It's HSV anyway, should be a sticker on the boot though I think, HSV bages,wheels,seats,build plates, close enough for me

**anton1o** · 13-06-2006, 08:23 PM

So there was a such thing as a VN HSV built in 1991 ?

**greenfoam** · 13-06-2006, 08:27 PM

Well it may be a rare machine and could be quite interesting to see what memcal it's running on the series 2 motor but it appears to be very real

**wes_v8** · 13-06-2006, 09:42 PM

doesn't it on special models have the badge on the dash sayin wat it is? like they say executive, berlina, calais? not sure

awesome

**mouce** · 14-06-2006, 04:27 PM

I never heard of a DMG90. Anyone got some pics?

**1991_Vn2nV** · 14-06-2006, 05:04 PM

Ah i have heard of the DMG90 but no1 knows anything about it really... I wanted 1 cause its my initials...DMG

Where does that list come from Airstrike?
I was told the +6 did not come out until the VP, with a 92 and 93 range??
I have never heard of the SV6 or Challenger and i thought LE would simply by Limited Edition and LS Limited Series or something? Non-HSV

Do you have any more info or power statistics etc or a source?

**AirStrike** · 14-06-2006, 11:23 PM

All info is from the HSV 10th anniversery book.
All V6 power outputs are either stock of SV3800 spec.

**1991_Vn2nV** · 15-06-2006, 02:06 AM

ahh wonder if they will have a 20th anniversary book next year? I wuld love more info on HSV's, especially earlier models

**AirStrike** · 15-06-2006, 08:59 AM

There is a HSV book that just covers VL-VP and is very detailed, I want to grab a copy of. Also there is a book that I want to get covers everything, http://www.pitstop.net.au/pitstop/pa...den/13692.html

shit thanks for link man. Cheers Airstrike

**Hot-Rod** · 16-06-2006, 12:52 AM

Hey people i just noticed in the pictures, the one of the interior pic, the Dash cluster more importantly the tachometers etc they look to be either police pack or stage two dash which was all the 4 indicators Revs, speedo, fuel , temp. Didn't HSV's all of them (Correct me if i am wrong) come with the level three dash tacho's which had the logo's actually on the dash next to speedo and revs ?

Looks like a mock up Wanna be HSV lol. just my two cents.

**greenfoam** · 16-06-2006, 01:02 AM

HSV Build plates over rule a level two dash

I doubt the V6's were so fancy to get the posh dash
