    Awesome video man. A 12 second naturally aspirated v8 wagon for daily use is mint as. Can't wrong with that and even better that it's a family car. Won't be late dropping off the kids to school.

      Thanks man! It does go alright. Perfect for the street, loads of response and good torque down low. All it needs now is a blower!

      I wonder how fast my wagon is. I got a massive cam in mine that is basically a 480 pack. And it’s my daily driver. Drives like stock. :p its got more power at the wheels then a LSA ;P

    I’m sorry, I thought I heard you say “a Holden went down the quarter mile without blowing up” you said that, right? I just find that confusing, wtf would it blow up? Your words mate, can you tell me why you said that?

      Thats me taking a dig at the reliability of holdens/hsv's as I am a JDM guy at heart and as most of my friends would understand me owning one is somewhat hypocritical on my part. Also what would it blow it? Any of the mechanical parts on the car, like it doesnt take much. fueling is wrong it could lean out and burn a piston (eg blocked fuel filter, blocked injector), timing is wrong, could detonate and fuck a piston, if oil pump had issues, could fuck out bearings. Taking any car and driving it hard has these risks. Yes a relatively stock car with a mild tune is FAR less likely to break, it would only take one of the above and a countless list of other reasons. Anyone who has this assumption their car is bulletproof is dreaming. And before you start raging back at the amazing quality of these immaculate machines that holdens are, I have had nothing but dramas with reliability of components on this car since I bought it. None mechanical yet (but it is an almightly LS afterall, we wont mention the lifter issues im bound to face) but many others throughout the car.
