here goes...
The clubby has the following over the SS....
HSV 18" wheels vs 17"
HSV specific full body kit vs skirts and rear spoiler
HSV specific interior (heavier bolstering and wraparound seats in R8) vs std seats
HSV specific touring suspension vs FE2
HSV 330mm and 283mm rotors and 4 spot calipers vs std rotors and 2 spot calipers
HSV Optimised engine and exhaust system 255kw vs 225kw or may be 240???
HSV sports instrumentation vs coloured background on std instrumentation
HSV Data Dot security paint coding vs n/a
HSV = 3.73 final drive vs 3.46 in manuals and 3.46 vs 3.08 in autos
HSV specific cold air induction vs std holden crap
HSV turtle shell is black with silver inserts vs silver with black inserts... both need to be binned asap
there are probably more differences but cant remember them all off the top of my head. :D
