- A warm welcome to everyone checking out my latest CZcams video!
In this episode, I share with you my thoughts of this 1000HP Turbo HSV VF ClubSport R8 SV. The final generation of the HSV lineage, this vehicle marks the end of an era. Already a fiercely hotted up Commodore at heart, the HSV is the pinnacle of Australian engineering but when combined with a desire to take it into a league of its own, this vehicle is a showcase of one of the finest builds to come from the southern hemisphere.
Thank you to the owner Jag for sharing his pride and joy!

Well done to the owner for letting u get up it in the wet. I would have had a hard time handing over the keys in these conditions. đ
You break it, you buy it.
You play, you pay
You smash it, you own it.
I hardly think that was giving it. It would be all over the place in the dry and that thing hardly kicked.
@@montedog100 donât make sense but rightio
surprised its going in a straight line with all that power in the wet, quite impressed actually
Depends on what kind of tyres he use
Mint well done đ
My 2017 Chevrolet SS here in the stateside is fully being converted to a Holden commodore ss redline. Inside and out.
Performance I was gonna do the Kong 2650 and call it a day. But after thinking about it everyone and their moms does supercharger so I am also going this same exact route. Fully built and forged LS3. With a custom turbo kit.
Everything Inside around and trans is be upgraded to hold that 1000k to 1300hp I will be making.
LS3 are amazing engines LS in general. But the LS3 can make and hold huge power.
Hopefully one day you could fly to the state and review my Chevrolet ss that has been fully converted and built to see how us from the USA build our Holdens.
What an absolute weapon! HSV Gen F Clubby is my dream car, I love my VE wagon.. but those Gen Fâs hit different! Maybe because of the nostalgia of being the last Aussie made Holdenâs is what makes it even more special. Love everything about it, turbo set up, colour... itâs absolute froth material for me đ€€đ€€
Aussie muscle perfection
love it! building a 2017 Chevy SS with a 400" LS stroker and twin low mount turbo's...this video is giving me a taste of whats to come!
Love the passion we have for our HSV đŠđșđŠđșđđâ€ïžâ€ïž
This just shows all the clowns in Australia that a properly built high HP street car should be a manual. This would be an absolute enthusiasts dream weekend drive in the sun, all the control in the world from that gearbox .
Very good build and review
Try getting it off the line thoug.
@@toneloc9084 itâs a street car lol, not a drag car. And it would easily launch off the line the same as a 400hp clubby.
Itâs after 80kph you would have your hands full
@@properaussie331 with slicks she be a handfull from word go...1000rwhp is no joke .. especially after a burnout when tyres like glue...launching car at hi rpm off handbrake would take good pilot to run quick times
Awsome Segment, thanks for sharing that unique car with us all đ„đŠđș đȘđŒ
What donât I like about besides that fact that they donât make them any more đą Iâve always owned Holdenâs all my dream cars I just want one
Great car and reviewâŠ.I use to owner one of these beasts
Awesome loved it đđđđ
Nice one !. When i get my 2650 LSA blower ill put it up on my channel
VF clubbys look so good
He should change the 340 badge on the back of the car to a 745 badge just to let everyone on the street know how much power you have underneath the hood
Gay. You leave it so people think itâs still 340
That sounds like something an American would do
@@quincyoconnor9707 indeed i like to stay quiet but im also American alot like to show off so yeah..
Nah, no need to advertise. Keep em guessing mate đ€
Ford man here but will give acknowledgment to a nice/beast Holden, keep it as a sleeper as the same with an F6 310
He must've got an A+ in every english class
Why not wait for a dry day!? Looks like a near perfect car! Looks good but not over stated! Sounds awesome! And the power is crazy!
Was dry mate. We had to film it over 2 days because the weather wasn't great.
So sad there was no traction that day. Id love to drive this in the dry weather especially night time. Great car mate â€
This cars amazing. I'd love to see you do a video on the VF SSV Redline Series 2!
mr wong some ting wong
Great Vid on This Wild R8 Clay. Love These Aussie V8s i'm in UK Got the HSV VXR8 6.2 only 450 bhp But Wow . Cheers M8
Pretty sure the LS debut was in a Chevrolet Corvette, and it was designed, built, and proven in Michigan, the home of General Motors. You got it, down under, but it's an American engine.
Its a clean car,
Perfect set on ride height.
Didn't think the HSV's came with foggys on the front ? I've never seen one or maybe i haven't been looking hard enuf on the road...
They removed them in the standard Series II which is a bummer for anyone who wants easy front brake ducts :) (the foggys were piss weak neway tho so I understand why they removed them)
I don't like the front hood grille vertical bar on the HSV's so I removed it on mine with a little snip =o , they tried to make it VT style at the hood grille so thats always made me go meh.
The lower front bumper is nice tho.
Full sleeper would've been better (stock VFSS front and rear bars + lights), but can't knock it as I drive mine everyday anyway... :)
Also props to the owner who may not have known you that well and giving you the keys.......I'm sure there was all insurance done neway but still......giving your baby away to someone is hard, I don't let anyone drive mine even my mate who races in the 86 cup and drifts for a living.......
I like the HSV GTS more, but the R8 Clubsport is phenomenal
noticed @ the 4:16 mark, no A/C and heater on, that's why the front windscreen is fogged up lol. :)
Because he doesnât wanna lose 700hp with the aircon on
That's absolutely phat bro
these vids deserve more views aye
With so many car guy videos on CZcams, this guy is a standout. Great content
Now thatâs nice
One of the best hsv's ive seen
Get up it ya
There is no way a car with 1000 rwhp will drive straight on a wet road by the way love the sound effects and the way the camera is zoomed in and out when you are on the pedal. Great work mate keep them coming đ
Itâs technically American power as the last Aussie v8 was in the series 1 vt ss commodores
Ye was gonna say, itâs American. The last fully made 100% Aussie engine was the mighty barra
@@uptheau2875 wouldnât call it almighty seen plenty of LSâs smokem
@@uptheau2875 now if u want a battle of 6cly the RB30 shits all over the fish u have and sounds better on boost
@@cokeaddict1663 mate you obviously know nothing about simple mechanics. The barra is DOHC the rb30 is SOHC which mean lower potential power with SOHC. The RB30 block wall is thinner with less ribbing and more prone to breaking. The Barra is an under square engine which mean max torque and reliability but lower revs, the RB30 if I remember correctly is oversquare so higher revving, but high revs come less reliability, thin block plus oversquare ainât a good combo. So to settle it, the barra is, by reliability wise the most efficient petrol i6 engine in the world for power/cost ratio.
Donât get me wrong the LS is a good engine. Cheap (for a v8) to get power out of. More aftermarket support. Itâs pushrod. And the sound (even though in my opinion itâs the worst sounding v8 due to piston firing order). But, ask anyone whoâs owned one what is better for reliable power, not mass dragster power but reliable âcheapâ street power (500kw plus). That would be the inline 6 due to its simplicity and mechanical balance or in our case, the barra.
I assume your a Holden lad, Iâm a ford lad, but you gotta admit, our country produced a damn fine inline 6 engine which is technologically superior to all the outdated low litre jap crap.
@@uptheau2875 lmfao nothing mighty about a Barra there the worst engine made. I had one that couldnât handle 500hp kept on blowing up ever 10k
what a beast i would love to go for a cruise in that
If only the roads were dry and he had the pirelli trofeo tyres tyres on it or drag radials, then you will feel the real foce of the cars power IMHO. :)
It's certainly is a beast
Just a question, why is it so hard to get more power out of 6.6 ltr V8 with aturbo when the Barra 4 ltr does it so much better?
absolutely savage. your channel is so under-rated. cheers
I have a GTS in the same model with only 400+kwâs at the rears and I struggle for traction in the dry. Absolutely pointless trying to test one of these beasts out in the wet
Some hook up really well, depending on suspension and tyres.
Clean boat.
Aww my favorite little ricer is back!
@@holden0449 why am I a ricer when i think holden are boats? I cant think of a worse car to go around a race track.
@@100mg4 You clearly haven't driven one on a proper setup with coilovers and sway bars.
â@@rhyce542 i wouldnt be seen dead in a ford or holden, But i dont need to compare them myself just look at track times.
Did you rent the whole road out, itâs empty!
Weapon.. đđ
Yes yes yes, Aussie power !!!!!!!!!
American power, aus car. Itâs no barra
Nice cid dude. I had same one can i ask for upgrade 600kilowatt version how much need budget?
Thanks
It will be good to see it on a dry run
You selected a great weather, to test this monsterđ đđ€Ł
Epic car.... A true monster....
And it still canât catch the mighty BARRAđ€Ł
That's a lot of car, awesome!
Epic !! *_*
Mint
Sounds nice. But you cant test its full capabilities in the wet. You need to do this video again in Sunny dry conditions
What wheels are these?
Thats not aussie power thats an American engine
Clutch?? Can anyone tell me exactly what clutch is in this thing? Cheers
Which did you prefer driving between the turbo LS and the supercharged LS? Would love to hear your comparison
Damn this was 3 years agođ still donât have a HSV
Hectic
I have the same hsv 340 r8 and my car is nowhere even close to that power man and ihit 100 in second very quick but you have to really keep the revs from dropping to maintain speed, turn of all the gay assist stuff and you no longer feel as disappointed, but still a cool car. that must be worth 500'000 to get it that way
Please talk about the cost of builds etc in ur vids would be really interested in that side of the build
My dad has one in white
interested to know, what do you mean by "JUST the rear wheels?"
@@yeahdog I get that, but the emphasis of JUST is incorrect. There is nowhere else the power could end other than the rear wheels.. The emphasis on JUST implies there is somewhere FURTHER that the power could go, etc. Just sounds wrong to me, that's all.
@@christiaanj he means. Not awd and emphasising that thereâs that much power only going through two wheels which is insane
@@jakob31448 fair point
Lol.... itâs wet as... what setting do we pick? Highest output!! Man even a stock LS will spin it up at 40km/h in 2nd in the wet.... once u have lost traction how can u accurately compare different tunes? Setting 1: it spun, setting 2: it spun a bit more, setting 3: it spun more again!
Would of loved to see this on dry roads . It just doesn't do this car justice .
ford guys looking at the 340
The LS is a boat lol but if you strap a turbo to em they become a completely different animal.
Boat... maybe in factory spec. Keep in mind the're detuned from factory, once you let em breathe and a decent exhaust they haul arse.
It's now a Tug boat
@@-Stickyfingers- yeah I won't deny their potential hence why all the top dogs use em, I'm just trying to start a good ole ford Holden banter
Shame about the wet roads..
You are always coming with the fire man!!! Look forward to working with you...one day :D - Jon
"Real Aussie power" with an American engine
itâs better in a holden
Im a Ford guy, but gees clubys are sexy.
over powered TAXI
Not sure if I missed it but what clutch is in this?
Twin plate ceramic
My uncle have loud one and its black
It a wet road how the f can you test it
A stock rexy or Evo would chop this thing Off the mark. Yeah it's got 1000hp but try a stand still take-off without spinning it up. Great for doing land speed records though.
fuck no
đ
lets do a piece on a 1000hp car.... with wet roads. -_-
Dude, wait for a dry day. Driving that on wet roads doesn't showcase the performance capabilities at all.
want đ€€đ€€đ€€đ„đȘđ„đȘđ„đȘ
How will it go around a few laps of a racetrack against armmm, a M2 competition lol.
@@longjohn5322 most who want an ultimate well engineered fun machine lol.
We get dude you hate holden
no way you will be driving this car on wet roads if it was actually 1000hp
Great car, but man this guy is a little over the top
Should have waited until you had a dry day .
Not gunna lie I only watched it cause itâs a manual !
I'm never selling my turbo vf maloođŻ
Third!
It's all good to have power but, when you can't get grip, it's moot.
Raw aussie power?
I thought ls was american
What do i know
đ€«
Gotta love them vauxhalls
With all the mods and money spent on this beast, it's still burdened with one of the sins Holden forced upon its' customers.....
That baby poo cream horrendous looking roof lining.....how anyone thought that was a great idea is beyond me.
Needs to be black.
This would eat them turbo barra ford lovin idiots cars
Don't forget Holden sacked all the loyal Australian workers.
Driving a Holden is disrespectful
Iâd be willing to bet it went faster that day on its low boost setting đ€Ł
Clay - love your excitement - but unfortunately it was just all opinion and hyperbole. âItâs the fastest Iâve ever testedâ, âitâs got big brakes - it stops really wellâ. âIt puts power down lowâ Mate - buy a $225 Dragy and youâll find out how awfully slow these cars really are on street tyres, on the streetâŠâŠ let alone the wet. (And watch the âSupercharged V8 Dragy diseaseâ unfold - generating lots and lots of excuses). I dare someone to do a review on a modified F6/HSV Street car (not drag car) and never mention power - but only mention Dragy times? Is it possible?
First
Undriveable pointless!
HAHAHA is this a comedy !? Playing race car driver from 0 - 100 km/h . That's like reviewing surf boards in the Mediterranean !!!! 1000Hp are for getting quicker from 200km to 300km , you can't really use it from 0 - 100km/h because you can't get the power onto the road . spend heaps of money for nothing
It's a Chevy?
Itâs notđ
@@jakob31448 the engine is a corvette
@@ericamolo1221 correct... does not mean itâs a chevyđ€Šââïž designed and manufactured in Australia. Anyone who calls them a Chevy is a bum whoâs just trying to prove some irrelevant point. Because at the end of the day itâs irrelevant. The LSâs are a great engine hense the reason they put them in the ss commodores. How does that make them a Chevy?? Wtfđ
It only comes out in corvette in the states
Stupid that u a doing this video when it's wet
Of course it will spin the tyres like nothing
Don't care how fast it is, it's still a Holden đ€ź
Good to spin tyres thatâs about it .đ before you comment I own a ve ssv they are shit đ
