Hi,

I am new to the commodore scene and I own a 2004 Lumina V6 - just wondering what are the differences between a normal VZ and a HSV Club or Senator? i.e. there are the cosmetic differences in the front bumper, grill, skirts, rear end - interior etc however what about the main mechanical detail like engine - gear box - diff - brakes and ECU's to match etc ???? ....is it possible to swap out the engine + gear box + diff + brakes + matching ECU's and convert a standard commodore to a HSV V8 or is there more to the story that a dumb ass like me is unaware of.....any input to this thread would be appreciated thank you in advance!

There's nothing to stop you...but....it would cost you probably 3/4 of what an actual HSV would and be worth 1/3 as much.
