Holden knew about it, but he had modified the engine and suspension so heavily (irs etc.) and claimed that the car would be under warranty by Holden dealerships.

 

They said don't launch it, he did anyway, somewhere in NSW.

 

The polariser came about after he started seeing a hippie doctor for some sort of pain and started believing in energy fields and thought cars could have energy fields too.

Jase will probably blow me out of the water with 'facts' - but that's what I have come to know. 

 

Pretty much spot on Nik.

 

The Doctors name was Eric Dowker (sp?) a chiropractor IIRC and he helped Peter develop the 'Polariser'. Pete went off to tell his mate, who had the contract for GMH PR, Tim 'Plastic' Pemberton what he and Dowker had developed and Tim jokingly said "That's great Pete, you have invented the Energy Polariser" so the name stuck.

 

Holden wanted nothing to do with it (and tested it proving it did nothing) so Pete cracked it and the relationship started to breakdown from there. Apart from the Monza and the IRS for the VL, he wanted the Polariser fitted to the VL SS. Holden refused so Pete no longer allowed his signature to appear on the 'non' Polariser equipped cars. You can see the difference between the two cars as, apart from having Pete's signature next to the SS logo, there was also an 'antenna' on the rear window to capture the energy for the Polariser. There was also changes to the specs such as a revised tyre pressures (dropped to 22psi from 28psi).

 

The whole thing went a bit nuts to the point where the Polariser was also fitted to the race cars, but by this time Dowker had all but been banned from the pits and had to sit in the stands so a runner was employed to relay information about the optimum position for the Polariser from Dowker back to Pete. Apparently the Polariser was also good for suspension and brake tuning????

 

 

@Ash,

Walkinshaw came afterwards when Brock bailed (got kicked) out and became HSV.

....and you have PM.

Jase, you forgot the part where Brock said to Holden in response to the failed tests that the equipment required to measure the benefits of the polariser had not been invented yet haha.

I wouldn't buy either.

Ones been owned by a wanker with a stupid numberplate

And the other one doesn't even come with the lady.

 

 

I know the guy who owns the second one, used to be my neighbour! Older bloke, never saw him thrash it so it might be alright.

 

He was a bit funny though..
