hey guys, so here goes nothing!
my mate bought a mk 2 nova just for the coilovers and redturd engine.......and ive ended up buying the shell
fitting a 1.3sr lump thats done 57k for now.registered a 1.4 so may put it back to standard

after a bit of poking about weve discovered its an sr not a flair as we thought.some one has swaped the front seats for a laugh!lol
the c20xe looked like it had been fitted with nothing more than a grinder and a spoon:tard: all the right intention was there though!
now stripped weve had a look around the car and there isnt much welding to be done rot wise but tidying up the seam welding
rather than bend the firewall to suit the airbox, they put a grinder through it!:mad:
