    Default Plugs Let reshell

    Right well here's the story of when I reshelled my let nova, some may know some may not but I've never been happy with my shell as its had a sunroof, so as this shell came up for sale and it already had the cage in I wanted I thought I'd purchase it.

    So so today I made the journey to Poole to pick up this.





    My plans are to swap the engine out of my current nova and put it in this. Will get some more pics and plans tomorrow when I've got the pc on.

    looks like I've gone wide arch aswell

    Are you planning a wide track kit to suit or going to do it with wheel offset?

    i have a wide arch kit to go on mine, but i am going wide track with a kit from superfwd.

    Interested to see how this comes along. ��

    Looks like it could be fun. Wide arch looks good, after a lil love it will be awesome.

    im going to be getting wheels to fill the arches got the size in mind and offset just got to see what's about now,

    edd yes it certainly looks that way the cage is a piece of art thou, that's all I wanted it for everything else was a bonus,

    yea benn it's very much a project for the summer, hopefully get it looking right and it turns out to be a beast,

    colour wise now I'm thinking merlin purple and the darker royal blue as secondary colour, for cage and running gear.

    going to get a welder next week and then I can start the corsa b servo and may go epas aswell, although that might ruin the nova so undecided on epas

    Merlin purple is a great idea...

    Reminds me of the Simtek F1 cars from 94 & 95....

    If you are just going for zero offset or similar wheels, go for the epas for sure, will make it much easier to turn. Got to think about the scrub radius.

    Scrub radius? As in where it hits the chassis?

    ive been umming and arhhing about epas really, it's main use is a track car so I won't be parking it so to speak,

    quafie quick rack and epas may be a winner thou, will see how I feel about it if I can find some decent wheels, everything I've seen seems to be et15, and I don't think I'll have the cash for new for a while

    This should be good, I'm loving the wide arches. Looks like the same cage that's in my car too.
