Smurf Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I think they look pretty good. Finally Australia is producing cars that don't simply look like blobs with too much plastic, and yes I did see the plastic around the headlights. If I were to be given one of these cars or something with the same power from Germany, I would definitely go for the German product however if I was buying it I would most likely be paying 2 to 3 times as much. Pretty good value for money I say.

Modena Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Looks great! Id have the F6... love the wheels. They are still trying to push the slower GT though.

FordyR31 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Looks good, I like it.. Always liked the now older style F6. The enw tornado would be awesome.. factory 300KW ute with turbo goodness! Someone mentioend power to wieght, that GTP would have a hell of a lot of torque on it. never driven an aussie muscle car but u'd expect if they r selling them overseas, america and the UK, where 'real' muscle cars r really built then they must be pretty decent. Actuall sucks to hear about the commodore GTS-R.. Taken a great name code from the HR31 and made it into a f**kin banana! Would be interesting to see the new one tho and read about it. U know its going to be a good car. maybe the current F6's will come down in price from over 50k second hand.

Spunky Munky Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I have to admit, of recent, Holden's HSV GST series looks hot... I wouldn't mind one actually.

sloutch Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Throw some boost into the typhoon. Apparently i heard those XR6Turbos are only running on 4 psi! And they have a Garrett GT30 turbo or something like that? Not quite sure on that but i reckon if they run them on 14psi boost, lightly modded GTSTs will not be a match for them.

Also Lightly modded GTST's are already being thrashed off the line by lightly modded XR6T's. Driven a liughtly modded F6 and loved it. Still nothing compared to my GTR Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177414-wheels-busted-boss-320kw-fpv-gt-300kw-f6-pics/page/2/#findComment-3244959 Share on other sites More sharing options...

2rismo Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Just a quick note on the subheading of this thread... HSV finally has some competition from the Blue Oval The turbo six-pots have had it all over the GTS, R8 etc for a very long time, champ.

mad082 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 the xr6t currently run 6psi. the new f6 are going to be running about 11psi. the current f6 run about 9.5psi. my brother in law has a ba xr6t. his made 248hp (185kw) at the wheels (100% stock). he has put a flash tune in (just an of the shelf one, not tuned specifically for his car.... yet) and pumped it up to 12psi and got 299.3hp (223kw). that is with standard exhaust, standard airbox and filter, and standard intercooler. he going to get a new airbox, intercooler and injectors and get the tune done for his car. also the sound of the big six hitting the traction control is awesome. a mate of mine has a xr6t. he has spent a fair bit of money on it (it developed an electrical problem when number 1 piston came out and destroyed the alternator). he had a full forge rebuild, c4 gearbox, and now he needs the diff done. on a light tune on the stock turbo at 18psi he made about 410hp (305kw). as for the hsv gts-r i didn't think holden had decided if it was actually going to make it yet. and it takes them 7.0L to get 365kw. they have to use big cubes to get the power. atleast ford is getting 320kw out of only a 5.4L Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177414-wheels-busted-boss-320kw-fpv-gt-300kw-f6-pics/page/2/#findComment-3257599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 too big, too heavy, and they use too much fuel... i wouldnt buy one when i know that a japanese turbo car can out handle, out brake, and out accelerate for less money Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177414-wheels-busted-boss-320kw-fpv-gt-300kw-f6-pics/page/2/#findComment-3258227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
