For your information future plans included keeping the GT nature of the car, car is gone, but you get the idea. Well not you two..

How in the heck did a Holden (GTO) thread get here? These conversations are a bit strange......The Point Sir?

Hitman227

This is not a Holden Thread - this is a Z06 versus Holden thread, lol

In other words, for the most part...my GTO GT Car was only little slower than an 03 Z06, stock, ironically, for about the same amount of money.

You throwing parts at your car absolutely no way made it anything like a full blown GT race car.

This thread on the GTO forum was only last week, but you totaled the car over five years ago.

The Holden Grand Am was a fabulous car, able to meet, or beat a ZO6 in almost any configuration. It's big advantage was it's prodigious curb weight, which helps it hold to the road in GT driving situations. I dare you to prove me wrong.

I just threw up in my mouth.

I know what it is, you guys are jealous that my GT Car is less expensive, in all aspects, lol

Not to mention, just as fast, if not better potential, but I digress...

Who gives a S#%t .

WTH? There's always a quicker car. Who cares. The only thing it seems many people here are frustrated about is that you keep carrying on about a car you don't have, on a forum of a car you don't have.
What is the purpose? Seriously.

Um no - this is the quintessential GTO.

bahahbahahhababhahhah I KNOW you're a troll, because I've owned an '04 GTO and '08 G8 GT both were well modded and the GTO is no where near the performance level of a C5Z - stock for stock or mod for mod. You'd have better luck getting a G8 to keep up w/ the C5Z since it is better in ever way and only marginally heavier while handling like it is actually smaller and lighter than its 2 door little brother.

Oh - and I actually lived in OZ for 8 months and saw the REAL performance cars Holden had to offer....which could hold their own, but ALL are MUCH heavier than a C5Z....hell nearly anything these days is.

The GTO would need MAJOR suspension work (in fact as you must know the entire suspension on the car is a pile of parts bin dog poo), as much lightening measures as you can throw at it, plus power mods just to have a fighting chance....and while you're at it you'll need to ditch the skinnys and roll the fenders to fit some legit rubber on the car so it can hook up w/ all the extra power you'd need to add in order to keep up w/ a stock C5Z

The GTO was intended to be much more of straight line muscle car than the C5Z....and even in that endeavor it really isn't close at all...fastest time I can remember a stock LS2 GTO running in the 1/4 was a 12.8-12.9 - the norm being 13.1-13.3

And there have been a number of documented C5Z runs in the 11.8-11.9x range - come on bro.

Stop it. Give it up. GTO's are nice torquey "GT's" or IMO - an example of what would happen if a Lincoln Mark VIII mated w/ a Camaro SS - but they are not worthy of comparing to a C5Z performance-wise w/o HEAVY modification.

Wait I know what it takes to be a good driver, load up on the uselessness...then post one single response, as to why the Z06 is better, that's the ticket!
