Im selling my SR due to being unemployed, its just been MOT'd and tax'd for 6 months. It's just had a new bottom end fitted and has a coscast head. It also had a new head gasket and bolts, sump gasket, timingbelt kit and clutch. Its running kawasaki zzr 1100 carbs that have been re jetted, the manafold is a Bog Brothers one. Its got Willwood Dynalite brakes up front with braided hoses and Eibach coilover suspention (supplied by courtenay sport) and solid alloy top mounts, all the suspention bushes have been replaced with polley bushes. Its got solid engine mounts and a stitch welded engine bay (there is a recept for a strengthening kit but i dont know how much of it was used). the wheels are softstars and are all in good condition fitted with Toyo T1R tyres. The shell is an sr not a rep. The showcage is a fearless item with a matching rear strutbrace and front strut brace the car is exactley as in the pics so if you see it its still got it.

What colour is it? I can see its blue but it doesn't look like breeze blue. Also, I wouldn't be interested in the cage. Thanks

i fitted the carbs to that car the carbs and manifold cost nearly £500 plus another £250 for the distributor, to sell it for parts would be a shame as a lot of time and money went into it, brakes £450,cage and rear strut brace are hens teeth, i fitted the quick rack its a quaife item,i also fitted the eibach suspension £750 good luck with the sale mate but i think your giving it away that was one of the most fun cars i,ve ever had
the car was built from a bare shell i still have the build pics ,it was fully strengthend and painted inside and out,its an american opel colour by the way not hyundai, if i had the cash i,d have it back tommorow it was so much fun, i just couldnt behave in it! swap for a bmw?

tis a nice car but you cant price up everything you spent on it and charge it to a prospective buyer, car sales dont work like that, everyone knows that cars only depreciate in value unless they're an old classic
its not my car i was merely pointing out that it was mine and i spent a ****load of money and time on it,and it is classed as a classic thats what the insurance policy i had on it said,its not like theres lots of mint novas still on the road is it?

Carbed nova in good condition is well worth 2300 imo
a mate of mine just got £5k for a nova with a turbo motor fitted and apart from the motor that car wasnt a patch on this one! heres what it looked like when i had it

hi are you interested in a mk3 astra van with a vectra gsi v6 lump fittted

for that price its a steal, as graeme said (gkjnr) it would be a real shame too see it get stripped and broken, i dont want to see that happen to the car so someone please buy it, if i wasnt moving away i would have snapped it back up in a shot, the only car that put a smile on my face and frighten off a lot of other cars!!!
this car used to get comments no matter where it went, i miss that!!!!
