You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ryansnova again.

[ryansnova]

im going for the white that rs focas's are painted in lol

and i love white cars :)

[swedge]

if i had to pick another colour it would be hardon blue (arden)

[Southie]

Good luck Ryan in your new build, looks a good start. :)

What's your future plans then?

[ryansnova]

im planning on a white and clean gsi rep but with a 1.2 and i want speedlines, comp-mo's, or ronal turbo wheels :)

[John]

Go and do some homework! lol looks like a good base to start with :) (speedlines suck big donkey balls imo :))

[sri888]

[John]

Meh, you're still too young not to be doing homework! lol

[ryansnova]

Meh, you're still too young not to be doing homework! lol

im 15 and was aloud to leave school early.

[jaygsi]

Seems weird would of thought most of the Nova drivers on here would be older mid-late 20's

[dannymcc]

Good shell you have there, plans sound good too. Good luck with it. :d

[ryansnova]

Seems weird would of thought most of the Nova drivers on here would be older mid-late 20's

theres lots of yung nova lovers on herelol i have been brought up around cars because my dad restors classic escorts and just because im yung that doesint meen im stupid :thumb:

[honie5]

I'm 21 and didn't leave school early and I'm still dumb lol never to old to learn mate :) looks a good base pal just please don't put speedlines on everyone has them and are boring now! depending on what style you go for as to which of the other two wheels you go for! Track style and comps are a winner!

[ryansnova]

well i did think about making it a trackcar/everyday car but i want it to be useible for everyday use so i can take people in the back ands things so im just going to make it a clean gsi rep with comp-mo's or speedlines or even ronal turbo's but thay are a bit to much money lol

[moffat]

Seems weird would of thought most of the Nova drivers on here would be older mid-late 20's

i was 15 when i had my 1st nova lol

looks clean ryan, another white nova aswell lol

[Tanya.]

Looking forward to seeing this come along :)

[ryansnova]

cheers i cant get the engine out till i get a hold of a 30mm socket to take the shafts out so im stuck atm lol

[moffat]

drop engine out with suspension and shafts attached :thumb:

[ryansnova]

i did think about that mate but its in my mum and dad's driveway and my dad has somebody coming to buy his ford angla thats in the garrage and it would be hard to move the nova if it was not rolling lol

[ryansnova]

got a hold of a 30mm socket and i will be taking the shafts out tomorow but i cant drop the engine and box out till sunday because its armadale galaday on saturday and a engine and box siting in the drive when we are having a BBQ is not a prity site lol

[ryansnova]
