What you all think?

[N.I_Nova]

Hey all, just thought i would post some pics of my nova let me know what you think, needs different rims in my opinion and lowered more but thats about it. Maybe gsi bumpers but pretty pleased the way it is, some ideas would be nice, Thanks Matt

that looks really clean, nice car. i think new wheels and lowered would do it keep it the way it is..

[Spudly]

Is that lagoon blue methinks, very nice colour, nice looking car bud.

Keep it clean:thumb:

[JShannon]

Seen this for sale on gumtree, is it you selling or have you just bought it??

Where abouts in co.Down are you??

Joe:thumb:

[brainsnova]

looks clean but i think if you lowered it and didnt change the wheels then they might rub.

[Zildjian]

It looks very clean and solid :)

I'm not overly struck on the body-coloured brake drums, but a subtle lowering would make that car look peachy :cool:

[dontliftdrift]

i need a nova in my life :(

my first thought's were...gloss black bumpers+colour coded doors....

very nice nova though buddy ;)

[waynes sri]

yes change the rims and drop it some more and if you want mudflaps on put some better ones on lol :thumb:

[Connor]

agreed with the different wheel choice and lowering,
once done that will be a little gem :thumb:

[N.I_Nova]

yeah i tottally agree not fond of the rims myself lol i was thinkin maybe drop it onto sr rims,speedlines or maybe cesaros i think white rims would be nice but maybe to much so might stick with silver, its only lowered 30mm at the mo and it rubs when someone is in the back so i dont take passengers lol only my girlfriend in the front :D, and yeah it is lagoon blue, GTEJOE yeah that was me with it advertised wasnt actually selling it just seeing if there was interest lol, not a chance of me selling it :) love it and i am from kilkeel in county down

[blue_peg_16v]

lower it and look after it

[vaughanmc]

Looks nice mate :)

[N.I_Nova]

cheers, when i found it i thought will this is defiantly a keeper, my first one was useless, it was a semi faded 1.0 spin lol, not the most stunning and not in great nick and broke down every mile lol seemed like it anyway, but sure done me rightly :)

[Grey]

nice one very like the one i picked up for my donar car. very clean! :)

[vaughanmc]

What's the engine bay/slam panel been done with ?

[N.I_Nova]

seems to be wax oiled

[craig green]

I actually wouldnt change a thing, GSi bumpers are done to death. Maybe go a tad lower & I wouldnt blame you for changing the rims but it looks sweet IMO.

[N.I_Nova]

cheers mate, yeah the rims HAVE to go defianatly, wandering weither to get coilovers or just springs and shocks, not 100%

[Connor]

depends on what your budget is, as i would rather some half decent shocks and springs, than cheapy coilovers

[N.I_Nova]

yeah supose so and depending on what wheels i get the rear coilovers could rub

[Zildjian]

depends on what your budget is, as i would rather some half decent shocks and springs, than cheapy coilovers

Agreed.

Preferably a proper researched matched-set.

[novaload1992]

oh good another nova owner from NI, why kilkeel :( im over in banbridge direction

[Zildjian]

Are there lots of good Novas over there then? (my folks grew up in Newry) :)

[novaload1992]

Are there lots of good Novas over there then? (my folks grew up in Newry) :)

[novaload1992]

[Zildjian]

yeah but adrain and keith seem to own them all lol

Apologies, I'm a newbie, but is Keith the Nova Sport concours chappie?

[Mike]

[N.I_Nova]

novaload1992 i am always in banbridge cause my girlfriend lives there, infact thats where i am right now lol, were abouts you live at, yeah we dont have that many novas over here good job really the less the better lol, then when it comes to selling theres more people that want them, its all about the money :), yeah have to get a good matched set of springs would be well worth it, though its not bad they way it sits at the mo, but still, i will never be happy i will probably keep changing rims :), my girlfriend is always like leave it the way it is but i cant do that lol

[sr jack]

nice car that.love the colour. just need to buy my softstars:d

[N.I_Nova]

was thinking about softstars to, not sure though

[novaload1992]

Do ever be in the main car park were everyone seems to meet up when out cruising? i don't really head there that much tho i could meet up in that car park some night be good to see another nova.couple sundays back i was in it but nobody shown any interest in my nova :( care more bout saxo's.

[N.I_Nova]

[auzzy2000]

[novaload1992]

[N.I_Nova]

[novaload1992]

haha, what a small world. I seen a red nova spin on the ballymoney road donkeys ago parked in one of the houses drives. So was you owned that cause your earlier post says you used to own one tho that was before i passed my test n owned a nova. Yeah should meet up for some OLD SKOOL NOVA' POWER forget 306 and saxo's lol

[N.I_Nova]

yeah that was me, that "thing" hand more noise than power lol, banbridge is full of 306's, boras and saxo's you would near think they had a factory that made them right there to deploy them after us THE SAXONATORS lol,

[N.I_Nova]

i have some 60mm rear spring's and chris (chrisnovaturbo) has a set of spax rsx's for the rear, will have some 80mm spring's too next week when i get my 100mm's

I would buy them if i had a job, bit hard finding one at the mo i must say

[novaload1992]

sounds fimilar haha my wee pushrod goes (well i like to think so) n makes some noise too. You on RMS?

[N.I_Nova]

[novaload1992]

Well if you add me mneill :) when do you want to go cruising lol i sound sad :( but theres really not that many people owns novas to do a nova meet

[N.I_Nova]

certainly not enough, we need to have a good nova meet some night, banbridge back car park sounds good to me lol :), saturday or sunday night this weekend sounds good???, i will see if i have rms and i shall add you if i do,

[novaload1992]

saturday :thumb:

[N.I_Nova]

saturday night good job, what time you wanna meet? every one usually starts firing about the town at about 8 so any time after 8 really would be best for showing of purposes of course, have to give a wash now so it looks well and maybe another wax and polish if i feel like it tomorrow, or more like if it isnt raining

[novaload1992]

alright some time after 8 :cool: i'll wash mine tho i don't know bout polishing her up given the weather but on the other had be a good excuse to use my auto glym kit i was given for christmas. Bring a camera :thumb:

[N.I_Nova]

I will dont worry about that, my girlfriend will probably take photos flat out knowin her lol, if she decides to come wit me lol

[N.I_Nova]

yeah might aswell use your kit,i wanted one of those . . . unfair lol,

[novaload1992]

haha, won't be surprised she gived it a miss tho maybe she doesn't mind cars n all that carry on

[N.I_Nova]

she loves all stuff about cars. perfect girlfriend, she even helps me fit bits to the car lol. do you want me to pm you my number for saturday so ya can give me a text.are you o2. i am on my phone internet now shocking slow lol

[amggsi]

Looks well, always liked that colour!!

I think a set of Speedlines would set it off nicely, they're common for a perfectly good reason!

I've no Novas on the road at the minute, all garaged until April time when hopefully the good weather comes again!

[N.I_Nova]

cheers mate, someone that agrees on speedlines :) . . . I like you lol, i always wanted them, yes a lot of people have them, but that is the simple reason they look great, you have speedlines dont you??? yeah well hopefully the good weather will come very unpredictable being northern ireland like lol, we never really get a summer its just rain with a bit of sun lol, i want to see your novas cause they look gorgeous :thumb: the world wouldn't be the same without novas lol

[amggsi]

Yeah, I've 2 sets of Speedlines, one silver, and a grey set.
Have Softstars as well, can't beat a bit of variety!!

Not much to see of the Novas at the minute, they are all buried in the shed, but call up in the better weather again if you want!

[N.I_Nova]

defianlty will have to see them in the better weather, you wouldn't sell any of your rims trying to find a decent set at the mo, just gonna sell mine first though

[amggsi]

Don't really want to sell them, usually a few sets of Speedlines in Ads for Free though.

[N.I_Nova]

ah yes forgot about that good old book of wonders been a while since i bought an adds for free, shall have to have a look, sofstars might look well on my car not sure, was thinking i might buy a new set of them cause speedlines are pretty dear brand new, will probably end up getting second handers
