Or a 2.5 v6 Nova :thumb:
Did you manage to reverse the saloon out of the hedge when the Glanza passed you on the first corner?
Oddly enough, I did overtake it on a corner. If he'd looked across he'd have seen me like this http://www.alastrianlampoon.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/emot-byodood.gif

Lmfao hanging onto the steering wheel, mentally texting your nearest and dearest before you entered the scenery at a high velocity lol
Certain vectra estates have also been known to outperform glanza's aswell :p

Wow, adams gti is faster.
Is a standard 1.3 nova as fast as a standard glanza?
Or, is a 400bhp glanza, faster then a v6 nova?
Doesnt mean a thing really:s

of all the people on here, i'm pretty certain jack knows what a glanza turbo is, that is why he posted turbo in the title

lol 60 road, and I may have been going a little faster :p Although I was too busy clinging to the steering wheel for dear life to notice the exact speed. Officer.
Matt, who cares, this thread is in jest at all the WOW NOVAS ARE FASTER THAN XYZ threads.

Not bad then!!!
I bet at 60mph, you can really feel the roll in those tractor tyre side walls :d
My lawnmower is faster than yours
Funny aint it, four pot cars cant dust a glanza wheras six pot motors leave them for dead hehe lol
Good job it wasn't a 1.2 nova though. Them things is well rapid.
lol Adam, they tyres are pretty good tbh. Its mostly the engine trying to jump outside the wings that does it :d

I also kept up with a R33 Gtr In 1st and 2nd then it was off.
Beaten by:
205 Mi16 Turbo....I mean beaten bad lol
These were all on motorway straight as I have no interest in fast cornering lol
My dads harder than your dad.
Oh and a nova Saloon 30v6 beating a galanza is funny... pick on something your own size jack pmsl... bully! :P lolz
Its mostly the engine trying to jump outside the wings that does it :d
Thats what happens when half the engine sits level with the front bumper :p
God im on a v6 nova bashing mission tonight, even though one would destroy my xe
(in a straight line)
pick on something your own size jack pmsl... bully! :P lolz

It has 4 gears?
I usually get bored after "accelerating" into 3rd and just stop and walk the rest

First gear on the motorway? Geared for economy those Skyline's!
I thought 1ltr novas used a 'sturmey archer' three speed hub lol
As you hit 3rd youve already already hit the end of the 3mile stretch of road.

lol that one was at lights on a roundabout then onto a motorway slip road. I though I had a chance but I was very much mistaken.
As you hit 3rd youve already already hit the end of the 3mile stretch of road.
As you're in 2nd you've usually come to the next set of lights/roundabout/breakdown
Glanzas are only 133bhp standard,
nothing for a match with a mighty 3.0 v6 :d
As you know Jack there are some very glanzas going about
and yea it doesnt doubt me you ovetook it around a corner
imo they handle like dog, used to keep up with my bro (200bhp glanza)
In my nova (1.2 - 12bhp approx lol)
I reckon my beast of a car has taken a fair few unsuspecting performance vehicles..
.... NOT!!
but i reckon it does alright for itself seeing as its a 1.5 turdbo and Jack mocks the fact that its got the smallest turbo he has ever seen.
And its a mitsi.. so obviously its cool and the gang! lol
I also hammered a Mitsubishi Colt CZT the other day. I hear they're a 1.5 turbo, although rumour has it they are equipped with the smallest turbo I've ever seen.
there not very good either tbh dude lol... Play with some proper cars :D
I'll rephrase that cas i actually wanted one, but they are pretty tame and soft. :P
c20xe nova also beats glanza turbo so i would hope the extra 2 pots would also win lol
Good point. Do they do a glanza saloon?
pmsl laughing when i saw that! nearly cough'd my guts up :(
