    Default my nova xe project ae86 project and pulsar gtir project "phew"

    ok were do i start i baught my nova in 2004 it was a red 1.2 expression my plans back then were to keep it red and have it looking like an sr but they soon changed when i got offered a rough gte 16v astra. i'd always loved white gsi's and saying as my first car was a white gsi rep i thaugt id go down the same route untill i got this far







    then as many of you will know an urge for somthing else crops up and i baught an ae86 corolla in 2007. always loved them and i had the money so had to do it so after puttin the nova aside i ended up spending all my wages on the corolla and ended up with this



    although looks a bit like this now





    and in the middle of things got offered this cheap needing a bit of a tidying up and couldnt let it pass. always had a soft spot for these to so ther was nothing i could do the thaught of 4 by 4 turbo power was just to tempting





    sorry for the life story but thaught id share my pain with you's all and have only got started back at the nova recently. so i have 3 projects on the go at one time! i only hope the bank account holds up. thanks for looking

    Also love the ae86s, will definetly be keeping an eye on this thread. In 2007 these were pretty cheap wernt they? I bet the price has easily doubled since then.
