Here we go then,

some of you will know Ive moved to a new house, so i can get my nova back from 'tom eccles' the messer thats had it in dry storage for the last 2 years, but enough of that cant be arsed with negativity anymore doesn't get anyone anywhere,

so Ive getting my self ready for the arrival of my nova, firsts things first got to get this corsa fixed and gone to make space for it


got as far as i can with that right now until my new torx bits arrive, could have sworn i had some must have left them down south.

this is my temporary work bench

(size isn't everything lads )

As i cant do anymore to the corsa, thought i might aswell use the time to assemble my engine crane (finally)




two problems
1. its missing a wheel , got straight on the phone to them and there sending one out.
2. it started pissing down

[turbojolt]

never mind, plenty more to get on with so started assembling my engine stand

right awkward fecker

wheels on


job jobbed.
now while I'm at it here is my spare room

yum yum nitrous
p.s if anyone wants that sub and amp let me know, you can have it for 20 quid, has no place in a striped out track day car

the bucket seats guests can sleep on the floor!!!!

---the nova will hopefully be running a spec similar to this---
-256mm front brakes (fast road pads, new disc's & 5.1 dot fluid)
-spax rsx coilovers & Polly bushed
-front & rear strut braces
-c20xe (referbed and running nitrous oxide)
-stripped out interior
-bucket seats, 4 point harnesses, sued s/wheel, flocked dash
-perspex windows (front sliders)
-roll cage (have to research whats the best here, bolted/welded and how many points?)
-fiberglass bonnet, wings & tailgate (unpainted, pins, straps, raisers etc.)
-keeping it on small bumpers (drilled to feck as it looks proper)
-15" alloys (Astra sxi i think?), unknown semi-slicks (proxes on the road)

im toying with the idea of referbing the alloys and leaving them in primer Grey, and just giving them a few coats of Matt lacquer, then flocking the track day wheels orange, green or some other stupidly lairy colour

a proper little track shlagggggggg, hopefully some of you guys will pop along and lend a hand


this is the last picture i took of it in road worthy condition

thats it for now guys & girls.


to jump straight to the nova go to page 5
