OK i brought this up ages ago, but never got an answer,
Basically ive done the RAC check and my car was manufactured on 31st December 1993, and its a NOVA SRI.
I spoke to the original owner who was told its a limited edition, basically this seems to fit in because my car is all standard and kicks the arse outa other sri's, also kicks vtrs and not far off keeping up with a vts.
Ive got the standard Manifold / cat pipe bit and a few months ago i needed a new front pipe, well no garage could find anything to fit it, eventually my local mechanic decieded to weld it up because its a weird fit apparantly.
Other thing is, its really really fucking low off the ground, other than the original owner, (who was a old guy) this car has always been in our family. Its got rock hard suspension and just about clears speedbumps.
Brakes are vented disks, erm, i cant think of what else but the whole kit is standard, there nothing at all modded or anything so why does it go like shit off a stick?
I want more info, im desperate to get a decat pipe. see what happens.
Anyone heard anything? last i heard from a rumor was that the last novas were imported from spain (opel) and tinkered with down south somewhere before being sold as the last batch before the corsa became popular.
Is there anything i can look for under the bonnet etc? i need advise! im not car literate!
