!! Show Us Your Nova !!

[Spudly]

spudly im thinking about blanking the saftey valve soon goint to get a blank made



If you have a local bolt merchant then go to them we went to one near baxters in atherstone (bapp for bolts iirc) with the valve and got a pipe blank that was the same size and thread and just screwed it in, £2 i think it was, cheapest blank you can get and my boost cut problems were a thing if the past, baxter was gutted as mine was older than his and running less boost but still handed his cavs ass to him lol

[paddy quinn]

the back ones are standard seats the front are leather ones from a mk2 astravan

[moffat]

ahh right standard nova seats are the excatly the same,

[paddy quinn]

and im not a fan of grey bumpers

paddy the clock is from a mk3 cavalier, and took ALOT of trimming and messing about to et it to fit in the std location while still keeping the hazzard switch. (just due to the length of the circuit board in it)

L33 LEG - theres something about your car, i like it! (not keen on the splitter, drilled bumper or square plate tho)

Yorkie - cant go wrong with clean and simple, top work!

[Edd]

your welcome dude its well nice lol and yea supose you do need it for that but there's not a much better sound than what comes from a set off 40's lol
I think the sound of a 1300 turbo might just be as good lol

40's are nice but I'm ultimately looking for something a bit different engine wise, and with my wheels

[dj_wudgey]

yea you have a point matey if your wanting to be differant no good going for 40's well if you want to be differant engine wise!! it may sound as good but it will have to try really hard lol

I kinda like it as it has that "tired/used" look without being OTT, or without being done on purpose like crazy_kylie's one.

[L14MNP]

I dislike your fake low-double splitter stylee, but the car has a certain usead and abused look about it which is kinda cool.


Love the Comps and ML's though. Just choose a set and get two more though IMO.
I have finally got around to ordering some of Robs arch extensions too. Can't beat them. Shame I look like a clone, even though I was saying JDM before a lot of people knew what it stood for, but hey-ho! lol

I have another pair of the compomotives to go on as soon as I get tires, should "match" better then :)

Ironically the splitter actually is the same height from the ground as my exhaust!

[L14MNP]

Awesome. Are they 13x8's?

Also do you rear doors still open? lol

[octagonalpaul]

one does, I cut the arch in half for the driver side rear door, and yep - 13x8's

and old pic for exhaust reference:
