Welcome Stu. This is a great place to find info, most things have been done and documented on here so the search function is your friend. Don't be afraid to ask questions though, there is a lot of knowledge on here.
Get signed up as a club member, it is not expensive.

Good choice of car mate, an xe nova will give decent performance for the money and will still embarrass a lot of new "family" cars :thumb:
