Приєднався 7 лис 2006
For all the V8 lovers out there. Just some dirty cammed V8 sounds from around the UK in my 2006 Monaro VXR. Videos are random but it’s always about the noise!! Hope you enjoy it 👍
Mid Summer Car Run - Vauxhall (Holden) Monaro VXR - V8 Cammed Exhaust Sound - Chasing Fords.
Join the V8 Monaro for a long run through the Welsh countryside on a trip from Dyfed Shire Horse Farm the the amazing Llys-y-Fran Reservoir. This is pure V8 stereo heaven, strap on some headphones, turn the volume UP and enjoy the ride!
Chapters:
0:00 - Leaving Dyfed Shire Horse Farm
1:41 - Hitting the open road
6:25 - Preseli Hills, opening her up a little!
11:00 - Welsh Village, slowly does it!
12:27 - Arrival at Llys-y-Fran
Audio is captured by dual Sennheiser MKE 400 microphones on each side of the car to pick up both exhausts (Yes, I realise I spelt "Dual" wrong in the titles, it was late and I was tired! 😂😉).
This car is also known as the Pontiac GTO in the US

A Monaro VXR 5.7, Monaro 6.0 and a 6.2 VXR8 Bathurst make their way up the Black Mountain road so loved by Top Gear. Shame about the 40mph average speed limit :( #automotivechannel #musclecars #holden #monaro #vauxhall #v8 #v8sound #hsv

More testing of new equipment. Take a ride onboard my 500Bhp Monaro VXR for a short blast. I have a mic placed on the left and right of the car to give a better stereo sound to that big thumping V8 soundtrack and the dual exhausts. Let me know honest opinions in the comments, how does it sound to you? Much more to come ;) 👍

I’ve not uploaded for a while. I’ve been gathering some new kit for recording some better audio and video for future videos. This is a simple test of the dual mic setup I’ve got hold of. The new kit is listed below.. Video - GoPro Hero 10 mounted to the car with a fat gecko triple mount (slight overkill!!) Audio - Rode Wireless Go II with dual mics connected via a Media Mod for the GoPro I’ll b...

3 Minutes of sweet pure LS2 Cam chopping on a warm engine. Is there a better engine sound? Look closely and you can see the car rocking as it chops away :) 3” dual exhaust all the way back gives a nice bass tone. Some revolutions at 2:00 ;) Follow me on instagram @monarotravels

Throw kooks headers and corsa exhaust and it'll sound great
Those pops, WOW💪🏽🔥🔥
What a song.,music to my ears💪🏽🥵🔥
Fuck thats nice
Sounds awesome How much work and expense is involved to get it sounding like that. What are the pros and cons of doing it?
Thank you. Expense will vary depending on the components used but this has been roughly £2-3k. It has a Streetsweeper HT cam, sports cats with a dual H pipe 3" stainless exhaust. I've fitted valves to the exhaust before the rear silencers for the extra noise on tap. If you're fitting a cam then you need accompanying engine work such as valve springs, push rods, trunnions, timing chain etc. It adds up but it's still good value for what you get. Low speed drivability can be compromised with a very choppy cam but this one isn't too bad with a decent tune.
@MonaroTravels I'm only a few weeks Into monaro ownership, need a few things doing before any other work. I do ridiculously low daily mileage....probably not the best idea for me 🤣
Is it on? Like could be a Tesla?
Yeah, this is an old video with poor sound. Check out some of the newer stuff! 👍
I need this sound in my life ❤️
Silver wheels... very good choice! Nice ride
sounds great
Thank you
Very nice ride
Im glad that the uploads are back, and the monaro is sounding good as always
Thank you :) It's nice to have some good weather to be able to make some videos :)
Glorious!!!
Beautiful Pontiac GTO
HSV GTO 👍
They have average speed cameras up there?!
Yes sadly, 40mph.
@@MonaroTravels only a matter of time until they have them everywhere
I would have come along in my vxr8, as local to there but it's not running properly at moment
Epic sounds and eplc views, Hopefully next one is a Sunday, awesome.
Lovely scenery and great weather. Loved the drive out of the hairpin up the hill - sound up!
It was a great day. Shame there weren’t a few more chances to put my foot down but too many sheep and speed restrictions sadly.
I wish I could have seen 2 monaros and a vxr8
Monaro is my favorite ♥️
Epic video and car bro, congrats. Nice content you got on YT! 💯💯
Thanks. I hope to put more content up this summer if the weather gives me a chance!
Man I wish I could import one of them bad boys here. Granted ,we technically had them under pontiac but now you can barely find them, even the g8s, sounds great the both of em.
So is this considered chav or bogan?
Over here, neither :)
Someone told me the C8 Z06 sounded better than a Vauxhall. I'm here to tell them that they're completely wrong.
I have very first seen this car in NFS Most Wanted 2005. I got always interested about this car. Found out that Pontiac and Vauxhall are same cars just they are owned by USA and Great Britain. In general they are same cars.
These cars are Holdens really. The USA and UK got them from Australia.
@@MonaroTravels - Now that's a news that I have never heard. Thanks for the information. Well, I always thought that it id one company that produces both models of the cars. Like Mercedes with Maybach or Toyota with Lexus. The one thing I know that Pontiac don't produce anymore. Its company closed or went bancrupt etc.
@@MonaroTravels - At least there are few guys like you who still drive these legendary beasts. Keep it nice, Man. 👍🏻
What exhaust do you have on it, sounds amazing
What do they cost? And get ships to canada?
Great sound, and no wind noise. Nice video.
Looking good Rich and sounds epic! Rear camera angle is my favourite as it shows the suspension working. Also like the front one too.
Love that V8 symphony! Setup sounds great! Just woken mine up today too for the first good run of the year.
Damn it sounds insane any new mods?
Thanks mate, no new mods just experimenting with new ways to record the sound :)
@@MonaroTravels Oh nice, the new sound recording makes it sound like its got some sort of turbo or something
@@OverNotHere there is a mic in the intake and another recording the exhaust. The exhaust mic is clipping though so got some new kit coming to improve that. Watch this space :)
Atlast the legend is back to drive again
You got any social i could follow you on?
I don't really, I used to have an Instagram account but I don't use it.
That sounded amazing. I still miss my CV8 Monaro
Thank you, I’m still working to get the sound right but this does sound good :). They get under your skin don’t they :)
I would find any excuse to drive in that car for any reason. I makes you feel so good and alive except when you had to fuel the beast but it was worth it.@@MonaroTravels
Awesome 👌
Clean? That's all? Dude, that thing is f*ckin' awesome.
but ur drivin on the wrong side of the road... ;) love these cars. had an 05 GTO LS2 up until about a month ago. bought it a year old. took care of it and never had problems. great road trip car.
Please give me the exact info so I can make my '04 GTO sound like this
Nie przypomina wam omegi 2 w wersji coupe,szczegolnie z boku?,vauxhalle to takie angielskie ople,nie wiem moze sie myle
Awesome
Hi mate is that the pedders super low kit on there by any chance?
Hi, it's the Pedders eXtreme XA Remote Canister Coilover kit.
@@MonaroTravels thanks for the reply! Would you recommend them? Also, how is life with the car that low? Is it a lot of hassle?
Now if I’m correct as an owner of a limited edition cv8z Monaro. As there were 1600 - 1700 made We’re the gto just my car but changed too a 6 litre and a body kit Because when you google my car it comes up with 6-7 different names plus actually called a gto also I’m 70% sure
That's 300 kw for ya there
VXR ain't no joke for Vauxhall.
“Vauxhall” So weird
Damn this souunds so good. This is likely the cam i will buy. When you installed it, did you degree it or just install dot to dot?
Too quiet to be
This sounds about as good as a car *can* sound, really smooth, very nice! Am considering a Monaro next and this makes me really want one!
Cammed?
Sweet sweet music
