    Been talked about 100's of times but nothings ever came of them, have a 'search' and you should find a bit of info.
    Just out of interest what running gear ect ... you using ?

    actually building, or simply planning/dreaming at the moment?

    sorry to sound pessamistic but as Rich said, its been talked up millions of times and never actually carried out.

    plus I cant HONESTLY see a gain from putting 4wd into a nova, its not going to offer much on track, it might help on the launch at 1/4 miling but other than that its dead weight etc.

    If you are indeed building it then good skills and I cant wait to see timmmmaahhh kissing the wheels

    I know of one that is currentlt sat in a mate's garage (and has been for 3 years)

    A calibra floorpan was used and wide arches welded on. It has never run and is looking sorry for itself!

    So unless you are a sh*t hot fabricator and have plenty of resources/time dont bother!
