Ok i will start this by going back a little for the newbies on here who proberly havent come across me yet (havent been online alot for the last few months) and dont know me or my past.
before i start posting pics ect of what i have been upto and some of you look at this thread and instantly tar it with the
'oh its another one of them that starts it bodges it and gives up and scraps it thread'
i would like to remind those of you that followed it of my last major project that very nearly killed me in the process

that thread to those that havent seen it is well worth a look at from start to finish
after the little accident i swore i was going to pack in playing with novas as i realy had poored everything i had into that car and hence i brought my corsa pickup which some of you may of seen on here.
well unfortunatly i got board and brought another nova which was 100 and 10% standard
i brought it 2 months before pvs 2008 and in the 2 months i had it it went from standard to this
i brought built and insured it for under 1500 quid and ran a 13.9 run at pod and made 157bhp on the rollers not bad for a budget build
shortly after that i got board of the power so instead of selling it i decided to let it that was all well and good for a while at standard power but enevatably the f20 i was using gave in in the end and when i upped to phase 2 they blew weekly it even missed out on trax in 2008 as i blew the box on the way there and had to go in my green one which i brought as i knew it was going to be unreliable
in the end i blew a piston through the block just before crimbo 2008 so it got put away for a few months
3 months before pvs 09 i decided that it was going to make it to pv so i rebuilt it to abit of a silly spec and tarted it up a little aswell and this is how it made it to pvs09 as im sure many of you will remember it for handing the ass to a 700bhp van and winning its class and finishing 3rd in the pro shoot out
ran an 12.0second dead run at 121mph not bad considering it was ment to be beeing run in and that was on road legal yok paradas and 12psi
But it didnt come away scott free as i did kill the clutch and that was the start of the turbo seals on there way out again!
