    VF2 HSVs

    From someone that I would consider reasonably informed. HSV will release a 400kw low boost "R" with the heavy duty diff soon. Evidently are now taking orders so check with your local Holden Dealer as emails have gone out to dealers.

    Seems to make some sense if the Redline is getting the L99/LS3 so HSV need to fill the gap between the Clubsport and the GTS.

    Cheers, Matthew

    I won't consider a Redline L99/VVT/AFM even with a few more pony's for the offering!

    Driveline warranty could be an issue if that was the case!

    The person who told me made particular mention of the 9.9" diff from the GTS being fitted. I can only imagine it fitting between the GTS and the Clubsport if they fitted say R8 brakes rather than the GTS items. I do wonder what else would be striped from the GTS to get the price down a bit.

    Anyway, was an interesting tidbit.

    Would that mean that HSV would need to convince a whole new bunch of people that they either don't need a spare or boot space? Big diff. LT1?
