Hi all.

A long time since I was here.

I used to own this car. 2000 GTS VT2 supercharged by LSV. Reg X96 EUR at the time but I assume it's had a plate change.

Does anyone know if this car is still around and also if any similar HSV's are still doing the rounds / possibly considered for sale?

Cheers.

Don't know the car personally. There are a few Supercharged VT2's around but the prices will have gone through the roof to what you are expecting if Monaro prices are anything to go by.

I still have my GTS No26 , it’s by no means immaculate or original anymore though.

Be interesting to see what the GTS-R goes for.

Terry, I went with a kaaz plated diff and kept the 3.7:1 ratio. Wanted to go 4;11/1 but couldnt get oem gears.

Thanks Fred, just looking to change mine to a Wavetrac although I did look at the Kaaz. I currently have a 3.9 which is great but looking to add a little more power and I think the 3.9 will just keep blowing the tyres off.

Looking at the prices in OZ it will be really interesting to see what it makes here. Not sure many people here understand the rarity of the car. Good luck.

There's an orange (sorry, Tiger Mica) auto with the proper iron lion engine on facebook that has been up for a while, it's currently at £8,000 and unsold frown

If it was a manual I'd be sniffing around to be honest...

Tiga mica with the Holden 5.0 ?

:-) nothing wrong with blowing the tyres off !

I think the best solution for diffs is to get one built at one of the diff/transmission shops in Australia.
The higher ratio offs are quite cheap over there
