My version of a 4x4 nova that will get done!

[ste porter]

im keeping that in the corner of the shed incase i come across something i need then when its built i will strip the cav completly and scrap the shell
i brought a mint 60k calibra turbo that i have known the owner of well
for the last 4 years and gave 300 quid for it sold the lump for 1000k and striped the shell for the f28 and all the running gear and interiour and sold the bare shell on

alan your right i wont need spare clusters in the boot was it you i helped with the idol control valve on an xe nova at pv?

smart. did jay ever get his corsa done in the end ?

[AlanH]

yeah mate that was me, putting a LET in mine now and its all your fault . Any idea on a completion date for yours?

[Mike]

the thing i love about it is i know for a fact porter is gonna drive it funking hard so will be a true test as to what a 4x4 nova can do

Amen to that! Guys a crack pot but in the nicest fashion of the phrase

yeah jay towed the corsa to my workshop in the end i ran round it for an hour or 2 like a mad scientist got it up and running for him spot on gave him it back he had it on the road an hour and managed to blow the xe up towed it back and he had droped compression completly on 2 cylinders i think the cam belt jumped a couple of teeth and bent the valves as far as i know its still in bits now. i warned him when he built the lump to torque everything properly and use lock tite on the tensioner bolt but never mind

to be honest i was planning to have this done for pv but its not gonna happen now i dont think. this was at the begining of january i was hoping to be further ahead than i am now by mid january but for various reasons ect i didnt even touch it until the start of feb then with the truck accident ect nackering my back i cant see it beeing back on the road until august
i will trailor it to pv though

and mike and burgo thanks for the comment its nice to see two guys that fully understand me and my way of thinking
considering having it painted black with chrome handles on the side and a giant reith on the roof as everybody is convinced that the way i used to drive it at 150 plus everywhere before that its certainly going to be my coffin this time round!

good to see someone getting one done on here using vauxhall running gear ! ive falt about doing it loads of times. good work mate

[Spudly]

to right i will hammer it to the point of self destruction go back to the drawing board and do it again and again untill i either total it or it puts me in a coffin

no point in pansying around in it as lets face it im not building it to go shopping in

I quote a line from the film 'Point Break' "its not a crime to die doing something you love"
