Double post

[Novasport]

Nice one :)

[bazil]

First thing I done was check the numbers lol, 143 144 all present and correct :)

[bazzap8389]

Good stuff mate

[bazil]

Cheers for the heads up mate, going to dig out the soda blaster for them :)

[Novasport]

Aqua blasting and ultrasonic cleaning is better for carbs due to the soft alloy. It will give a better finish too

[bazil]

Can you recommend anywhere ? Id prefer to deal with a company that has been used before.

[Novasport]

I got a card from the NEC Classic Car Show for a company that does the blasting. I will have a look for the details later.

[sport]

Nice purchase Allan that you just needing an engine now?

[bazil]

Yeah mate, kinda need that bit lol

[8valve-craig]

Been after one of these for 2 years. Finally made 2 sets today.

Screw on the linkage in the centre

[Jeff16v]

Screw on the linkage in the centre

i thought that was just combined idle. Each choke has its own separate balance adjustment to adjust suck pressure.

I think it is the idle mixture screw

Bit more damage on the window switch box than I would've liked but seeing as I'm going to be modifying it anyways it's not too much trouble. Also got the switches plus a random one with it so it's not all lost lol, anyone know what the switches are from? I'm thinking an Astra of some era...

[Novasport]

As some may know, I had to play postman & collected then delivered my own stuff from Europe. Along with many nice items, these were some of my best bits...

Hi Richard,

Great poster - Just a quick question. You seem to have a huge amount of memorabilia. Do you collect all of it for personal enjoyment or do you sell any of your items.

The amount of items alone that I have seen posted on the forums is staggering - Your loft must be full :) Toys, panels, parts, signs etc


Great work though - Just intrigued what the plan is for your major haul of items.

[Novasport]

I enjoy the hunt. I think tracking down rare stuff is the biggest thing for me.
I dont normally buy to sell but I do sell off surplus items to help with my addiction.
I have a bit of storage. I have the loft, a garage, a lock up garage and a storage workshop/garage at the top of my garden.
The panels are insurance for the three Nova's and car parts are to keep them maintained. The automobilia is just of interest to me and when I eventually get a double garage it will be displayed in there.
The stuff I have is nothing in comparison to some other people I know, 'cough' Steve lol

[Kev Turbo]

Thanks for the reply, keep the updates coming - I always enjoy your posts

I really relate to what your saying though. The hunt a sometimes the best bit.

Your garage will be special once complete!

[duick]

The stuff I have is nothing in comparison to some other people I know, 'cough' Steve lol

Who's that guy? must be a complete maniac lol

[Novasport]

Vauxhall/Opel must have manufactured and cut a batch in the wrong size. Probably cut to a saloon quarter size but they never had ochre stripe on a loon AFAIK

Looks as if it has never been played with. It has all the accessories and stickers.

Also had this for a while but discovered it again when I was looking for something else. It is a pic of Harry Hockley rallying the Nova and it is very similar to the one on the back of the Sport brochure. Apparently it was hung somewhere at Vauxhall, I bought it from the man himself, Andrew Deurden so likely to be true.

[nova_niek]

A speeding ticket for doing 57 kph (less than 36 mph) in a 50 kph (31 mph) zone. That's €53 down the drain. Pathetic revenue earning imbeciles. Bugger. :mad:

edit: at least I don't get points - no such rubbish in the Netherlands, unless you just got your drivers license.

[bazzap8389]

^ you're lucky really then over here that would be £60 fine and 3 points.

[turbojolt]

or 120 quid to sit in a room for hours on end being talked to like your a numpty bored out of your brain just to avoid the points...................only to get back home to a letter saying you was caught speeding again lol

Would have preferred the 1.3sr vinyl but found it cheap so didn't want to miss out. Also picked up some spare lower wing vinyls as replacements. The drivers wing is in the paint shop now so that one will go straight on.

Dave.
There only just launched in silver and red but White will mostly follow because neo do runs of 300-500 of each colour but normally do a good few colours. Just look at there ascona range

[novacabrio]

The red is bulk I think, the silver is only 300? Could be wrong though

Big thanks to Plug for sending me these.
I have been after a set for the Spider to bring it up to full Brown Plaid SR spec interior. These bizzarely were originally mine after I took them from a scrapped SR a few years back. They were sold to Edd and he sold them to Plug and I have now bought them back.

Which unveiled this after unpacking. :)
http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff333/nova_niek/auto/Lupo/43-lxr-9/olietekoop_inhoud.jpg~original

Well chuffed with this little lot. Much cheaper than buying from the shops - especially the Citroën LHM fluid proved to be a bargain. They even threw in a free can of WD40-like multipurpose lubricant.

Also bought 20 litres of Castrol's finest 5W-30 fully synthetic from Germany which worked out at €7.77/litre as opposed to €27 (!) at the petrol station. And this includes shipping from Germany. www.oil-center.de (http://oil-center.de/en/) rules for bulk purchases! :thumb:

[Benn]

Roof skin is better wrapped than mine was..lol

LIke the collection of panels.

[Novasport]

Still not that well wrapped, should be in a wood crate imo. It has faired well though in the last 15-20 years, just a little work needed on it to the edges similar to yours.
It is nice having the panels, the problem is storing them!

[Benn]

Better than mine, mine was in heat shrunk plastic that's it..

You bought me plates for billing ;)

[bazzap8389]

Hahaha you can borrow :)

[bazzap8389]

Got my documents for C20 LTB today. Can anyone tell me if I can transfer the plate to a sorn car?

[Nick J]

Pretty sure you'll have to tax the car to put it on fella or place it on retention. I think to do the latter Its £100 every couple of years.

Nick.

[bazzap8389]

Aw right cheers, I've got a year to get it on a car. I'll maybe stick it on one of the other cars for the time being.

[Nick J]

Aw right cheers, I've got a year to get it on a car. I'll maybe stick it on one of the other cars for the time being.

If youve already paid a fee to put it on a car Id do that then just transfer It to the nova when your ready. It'll work out cheaper.

[bazzap8389]

It says I can claim back the fee if i put it on a car just now, I'm not sure if the nova will be ready in a year tbh.

[Novasport]

Seem to have bought quite a bit of stuff recently. Just a few bits...

http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff333/nova_niek/auto/Lupo/43-lxr-9/dashcam2.jpg

Inside is a webcam of unknown make, but at €17 (£14 ish) plus postage I can't complain.

Clutch changing kit for Vauxhalls, probably never use it, as it enables the clutch plate and cover to be changed in car without removing the gearbox (early small engined 1.2/1.3's FWD Vauxhalls nova/astra/cavalier iirc), but will go with the Franklyn camshaft changing kit

[Scottcooper85]

No more so then any other catch tank. Plus I think I'm going for some bonnet louvres or a vent for the carbs so shouldn't be an issue.

And some new shoes

[nova_stee]

What make are the tyres?

[Benn]

IaIn, why R1 carbs over tbs?

[Iain]

They're Toyo R1Rs

Cos I'm embracing the Nova ownership ways and become too tight to pay decent money for the proper gear Benn (although the manifold is pretty epic)

[Scottcooper85]

Tb's are for ladies and posh folk lol lol

I know what the tyres are.
Seems a shame with what you've done to the rest to make it a track weapon. The tbs will have much more scope and tunability won't they?

[Iain]

Response about tyres wasn't to you lol

I agree

[Scottcooper85]

Set of omega 86.5's, balanced rods and arp bolts.

[Benn]

Oh well i didn't know that :roll: lol

Can you not save for a bit longer and go TB's? First track day can't be for a while yet?


Craig, that looks very interesting.

[8valve-craig]

Interesting........do tell more please Craig.

Not much to say really, just a bit of Roll Centre correction I have a guy working on for me.

[bazzap8389]

That's tidy

I've been considering selling my snap on I don't use it, covers not been off it for about a year.

[Novasport]

Snap On seem to hold the money well. Got a really good deal on this plus £500 trade in for a box I paid £400 3-4 years ago. Was no point buying used with that kind of deal.
He has ordered me a zip fronted cover too. This is for home so won't be used daily.
