yay more turbo derv power :)

[Dervy]

my new toy, plan is to get rid of the crappy blue paint job that its had and return it back to its original flame red, get it nice and clean inside, couple of mods brakes, suspension, wheel and normal engine tweeks and then try and sell it on.

looks clean mate be a good project did it come with the Vectra rims ?

[Dervy]

no i put them on, just a spare set i had lying around

[novadave24]

ok they look good on it :)

[DAVIDKEDENS]

In a real motor now mate. Look forward to the plans

[clubberlang23]

I was tempted to buy this when it was on eBay, was fairly cheap. Look forward to seeing what you do with it.

[Dervy]

right i needed to sort out the brakes on the nova because i found that one of the pads had broken up

so instead of just replacing them i thought may aswell upgrade. i was going to put 256mm vented discs on but i couldn't find any in the shed or garage so had to go with vectra v6 brakes, just the old ones off the astra

then did a bit of engine bay decluttering

lots of unnecessary pipes and crap

Cool, what happened to the vectra sri wheels? Prefer the astra sport steels than the other wheels, Have you got a picture of the engine bay now please? I'm hopefully getting a more door td soon. Have you adjusted fuel & boost yet?

[Dervy]

i haven't bothered messing around with the fuel and boost as it is very nippy in standard form, engine bay hasn't changed

[clubberlang23]

I just wanted to see how you routed your air fiter?

[Dervy]

im still using the standard filter
