fastest HSV on earth?

[slowr8]

Heya fellas...

Does anyone know what the fastest HSV around is? I'm not interested in stock cars, but wild ones...

Has anyone cracked 350klm yet??

Does anyone know if the car would handle such speeds?????

my v6 berlina goes 350km/h its stock by the way

[Boonz]

doubt it would go 350...... 280-290 maximum id say,
the vs gts-r maybe or even the 6 speed crewmans they ahve pretty good gearing

[mattman]

No commodore will go that fast... they are not aerodynamic enough, nor are the internals strong enough to cope with the massive stresses they would be under (unless you spent mega bucks upgrading the whole drivetrain/g'box).

I think this is a good thread. No need for this sort of sarcasm. The fastest production HSV was the GTS Coupe....auto.... I think, got 275km/h in Holden's speed bowl, driven by Motor or Wheels, was a while ago lol. The LS2 HSV's get 273km/h, I can't remeber if it's been tested, so might just be a claim, but one I can see being very plausible.

Hmmm....very broad question! I'm sure there are some fibreglass HSV shells hootin along the salt flats somewhere, and they'd break 350km/h easily.

mine is not a hsv. nor does it have a fibreglass shell. but it can do 215Km/h in street trim and i think there is a bit more in it, maybe 220Km/h. but after a bit of boost should be a different story.

anyone seen the Clubsport out of the wheels magazine. it would have to be a nice contender.

[elljay]

i know its not a HSV but i think the real bray ute is the quickest

VX GTS got up to 285km/h I think

[MikeVXSS]

it would of been good to see how fast TRYHRD would o got b4 she blew up

[Boonz]

probably not a very high speed at all with that driveline..... would get to top speed bloody quick tho!!!!

[Daniel Gray]

my dads ex-chaser vt does 237km/h max, but i think it might have a different diff rtio to stock cos my vp v8 does 252km/h with the digital speedo option

[Daniel Gray]

monster matty, with little things like shift kits etc and braces for the chassis, most commodores could do over 300 without too much effort. sure, it would b hard to control without spoilers etc, (hsv ones r good enough they used to b done by TWR in pommy land) and just lower it, plonk a supercharged 8 in front of a T56 and a good diff and away u go

IT BLEW UP????????????

Holy shit i have that car on my bloody wall, what a waste of money....i was shattered when i lost my VP 3 weeks ago....imagine loosing that beast. i hope SENATOR doesn't suffer the same fate. Thats another FN wicked car!
