ive been offered a diesle nova, ive never seen one or worked on one so im unsure if they engine mounts are the same ect, does an XE fit into a Diesle nova or is there some parts that dont quiet fit ?


Sorry for the noob question :|

i know you can stck the izuzu 1.7 tubodiesel in them and they go well, can tune the engine well and extremely reliable. a friend of mine had one on nearly 400000 miles

The off side mount is different on the Diesels, but with the engine out, they can be cut off & moved or petrol mount welded in its place.

Stick with a boosted 1.7TD engine?
