Right here it is!

I have got roughley 3.5K to spend on a car, so it's going to be "another" Nova!! What to i buy? I really want a GSI Turbo but i cant find one anywhere i quite like the 2.0 8V but it has to be in the right car.

The main thing im after is major engine work and suspension i want as much BHP as possable without losing any handling.

Susgestions please!!

build one to your liking!!!

You could get a really good gsi and then get a reliable garage to drop a 2ltr conversion in for ya

U tried on adtrader (www.ad-trader.co.uk) get some very good deals on there...

ade is right, prolly best to go for a GSi for a few hundred, buy yourself a right off calibre/cavalier 2.0 16v turbs, then swap all the gear over!#

kewl job!

Y not find a cheap and solid J or k plate nova or even a L reg if ur lucky and drop a corsa 1.6 16v lump init 2 keep it light or a 1.8 16v and then turbocharge that superchip, nos etc as i personaly think the 2.0 16v is a bit 2 heavy for the nova but if u were gunna do a 2.0 16v u should just go all the way and get the turbo version thats just my opinion :)
