Default which car/model changed the face of performance for aussie cars?

Which car/model changed the face of performance for aussie cars?

Whilst it is no longer at the top of the tree and I hate to say it but the LS1 changed the performance benchmark for aussie cars. Mid 14s for a base model vt2 commodore executive.

Prior to that we were pulling teeth to get the old windsor or holden v8 to dip into the 14s.

Ford were forced to lift their game several times to be on par and had to develop the boss to match it. So responsive to mods.

I think as much as we hate it, we have to acknowledge the ls1 changed the game
