Spaceframed SR20DET RWD Nova

Another great project you've got there.

Where do the pumps fit on the tigra washer bottle? Will they connect up to the standard nova wiring and do both front and rear wipers without any modding?

Cheers dude :beer:

pump fits on the back near the rear support on the left in my last pic. Wiring is just 2 spade terminals so same as nova. My washer bottle came off a tigra so is a dual pump for front and rear combined. Being a coupe I only need front so will probably just use the pump on my old nova bottle.

Cheers mate thanks for your help. Thinking of doing something similar on my XE project.

just to update this a little.

i've not had much time nor money to work on the car and been struggling as to what to do engine spec wise.

I wanted another turbo but at the same time don't wanna spend that kind of money on the car, same goes for TBs. Didn't really want to keep the standard induction so I've decided to go with R1 bike carbs as its a pretty cheap cool mod.

The XE & F28 are now ready to get bolted into the car to start the dry build on the engine bay, hopefully it will happen before I go to America for 3 weeks in early september.

By end of september I had to have the rear arches tubbs and my coilovers fitted all round so I have an idea of ride height.

Sounds good dude.
Bring me back a prezi?

Got the little jobs done this weekend I wanted to before going on holiday.

Removed the rear seat panel. With all the bracing, cage etc going it I don't think its needed and just in the way tbh




Removed the last of the sound deadening from the drivers footwell.




And with help from Shaun, got the engine and box bolted in.




Should have my coilovers back towards end of september when shaun takes his nova off the road. I can then build the front supsension up and drop it as low as it can go then see how much needs trimming out at the back!

Cheers dude.

I didn't carry out the work. A mate took it to work and set it up on the jig then chopped the supports, bend the ends over to -1deg then welded it all back up again.
