I know none of you will believe this, but i have just found a web-site with a twin let engined Nova!! :o

It's in German though. Although it's rumoured to be coming to Billing.

Also, doesn;t the guy on the right look a bit like the regal guy? Can't htink of his name. Chris. Or something.

Anyway, take a look for yourselves at this amazing site I found:

2 phase 3.5 LETs :lol: If it goes as well as it looks it would put the wind up the Norris Evo :lol:

From what i can see in the pictures it looks like a quality job - no bodging and plenty of quality bits on view :D

Put the wind up the Norris evo, Your having a laugh aint you?. It will wipe the floor with that nova. Quality and Regal do not comein the same sentence mate, and EDS aint that great.

Pff, I've not seen the Norris Evo in action but after watching the vids of the twin engined Nova accelerate, I gotta say that the Evo had better be something bloody special!!!

Let's do some simple maths :-
If both LET engines were standard it would be -
4.0Litre
32 Valves
4 Cams
2 Turbos
Approx 400BHP
4 wheel drive
In a car that weights a whole lot less than a Evo.

0-60 - Nova wins*
0-100 - Nova wins*
Round a track - Evo wins*


* Just my opinions

taking traction into account? dnt think th nova would win to 60. my opinion. in fact, not in any conditions.

You will have no doubt noticed, Craigo, that I said "IF it goes as well as it looks" which means what it says. You shud look a bit closer at the pictures at whats been done before you dismiss it out of hand -its not a bodge job is it ?. Also by my calculations those 2 engines may well be grossing 500+ hp which given that the Nova despite the 2 engines will prolly be significantly lighter ( The Evo is fully trimmed still) means that its on a par power to weight ratio wise

Nova weight: 950kg? Power? 500hp?
Norris weight: 1400kg? Power 700hp

I aint much good a maths but they are both around 500hp/t if my estimates are anything like accurate?


So you're still sure that the Norris would badly beat the Nova up the strip are you??? :roll:

this is a car that regal have done.seen them doing it up since the start, its sooooo loud when it drives as well.

they're revealing it for the first time to the public at billing. check it out on www.regal-shop.co.uk

if regal built it from the start why are all the vids of it in german.. and the photos of it in the workshop are pics of eds's workshop in germany?

Fergie_sfc

???? dunno then. they claim they've made it from scratch and i've seen it in there a few times and seen it driving round only once.

doubt regal would be trying to blag it though......would they??

errm cos it was done in Germany by EDS for Regal to use for promotion in this country perhaps?

It probably just goes into Lager to have its melted pistons, fucked chips and blown ECU's replaced! Rick

does it mention something about a 7.91 second qtr?
seems funny that it was built in germany, registed in england and its a left hooker?? :? :?

7.91 quarter mile, what's he running it on methanol is it. That's probably an 1/8 of a mile. there's no way that shitter would do a 7.91. the best the norris evo has managed is a 10.9 @ 132mph and he has a 60k jun engine under the bonnet.

You lot don't half talk some shit. Stick to your plastic bonnet vents, neons and stick on bits and you'll be allright.

It's funny, just last night was i on about how it would be good to have a nova with a 2ltr turbo in the back and the front, then what do i find when i come on here?
spooooky!
