    And I thought you'd sold your Nova Adam, for a reliable car

    I shouldn't have looked at this, I actually wish I'd never bought high comp pistons and went down the charger route. Maybe next time.

    Just had a look through the build thread very nice

    Think I might have to get another mk4 astra now

    Would be nice to see that set up in a nova, rad would need moving forward and probably a custom slam panel, thinking I need to finish the Sport before I start anything else tho

    , saw this on a link back from mig, not seen baxters thread, any links? the astra came out really well, he’s been been lapping the nurburgring in it today, feels really nice and is just what the car needed, the headline figures are ok, especially with a stock exhaust bar a decat, but the best bit is it has over 150 lb/ft all the way from 2.8krpm to 6.5krpm, which makes it really nice to drive and pretty rapid, i might even get a go tomorrow!

    could fit in a nova quite easily i think...

    ooh, live from the nurburgring
    aye its the future, as we've been saying small block 1.8.
    The astra as a whole is a great example of how its done in my opinion, still wearing its walnut dash is it?
