SilveradoKid Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Im thinkin Pontiac should make this badass the new JUDGE http://www.hsv.com.au/vy/showcars/showcar.asp Damn Skippy! Holden has been putting out bad ass cars for years. Why oh why can't they just import the Holden here, I mean it is owned by GM and uses LS1 power. Should be a cinch to get it through emissions. Do they have drastically different safety rules down under? RF and there's the whole steering wheel thing... they have to re-design the inside....

Z-71 Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Anyone who works at GM and posts on this board needs to push the issue of bringing these cars to the US. Do it for GM lovers... do it for yourselves for God's sake!! P.S. Why is this smiley blue and not red??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A standard drive is a few mouse clicks away. RF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99Xtreme Posted December 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 The whole switching the steering wheel over shouldnt be that hard the platform they use is basically the camme as the Catera which is based off a Opel Omega and the CTS I beleive also has some of the parts the the new Holdens are using,the only over car im waiting to see other then the GTO is the CTSv,thats gonna have a 400hp LS6 too.

MilleniumSS03 Posted December 6, 2002 Report Share Posted December 6, 2002 The hp numbers on the 03 Cobra are also a bit underrated as I have seen them being dynoed and the loss of power to the rear wheels is minimal. I saw one stock dyno at 374 at the wheels. That is only a loss of 16 hp. Generally you see a bigger hp loss to the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muscleshop Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 Granatelli is importing the "maloo" already, although it is still right hand drive and around 60,000 Holden already makes a left hand drive version of the maloo and the monaro for the middle east. Why grantelli didnt import the left hand is beyond me. Doesnt matter though, I wouldnt pay $60,000 for a redesigned "brat" IMO. Now the coming GTO is a totally different animal. Would be nice to have that as the daily driver and save the SS for other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
