Just a real good clean up for now. The drivers seat is slightly torn so need a new one or ill get it re clothed?, paint the wheels star silver, and get rid of any bits of rust if i can find any.. Looking forward to get stuck in at the weekendlol

looks clean enough,just not a lover of the wheels you have on there IMHO they just dont suit the nova's lines(suit the corsa better!)otherwise a good clean and wax should see it come up nice:)

03-09-09, 08:03 PM
cheers:) does anybody know what the difference in speed is between a nova/corsa Gsi or 1.6 sport? would it be worth putting one in the nova.. im guessing theyll be a lot smoother?

keep it as is you big homo. lol

lol I just wana improve it a bit, i think it would be much better (proper car) with a bit more speed! and since i mite have a corsa sport coming soon for the c20xe i'd have all the parts for an easy switch:d

Thats my old GSI mate.. loved that car!

It had 17s when i first got it which i powder coated white

Then i fancied a change and wanted it to look a bit more subtle so i changed them for the softstars.

Id keep it original mate there's not many decent GSI's left these days especially in silk violet.
