The Holden Torana TT36 was a concept car shown by Holden, General Motors' Australian subsidiary, in 2004. Finished in a bright hot pink, it was a medium-sized, rear-drive car whose name borrowed the Torana badge from the 1967 to 1980 Holden range. TT36 stands for twin turbo and 3.6 litres: Holden engineers fitted twin turbochargers, an air-to-air intercooler and variable valve actuation to the Alloytec V6 and lowered its compression ratio, reaching a peak of 280 kilowatts and 480 newton metres of torque. The project began as XP54, a name taken from Holden's Studio 54 design workshop near Melbourne. It was said to introduce a new General Motors platform and to preview the look of the 2006 VE Commodore. The prototype has since been shown at the National Motor Museum at Birdwood in South Australia.

Torana TT36, power
By applying twin KO4 Warner turbochargers, an air-to-air intercooler, and variable valve actuation to its Alloytec 190, then dropping the compression to 9.0:1, Holden engineers were able to deliver a power peak of 280 kW (375 hp)
