[stuarty]

It ain't too bad mostly engine work required couple of plates to do I shall make a list tommorow

[bazzap8389]

Looks tidy mate, is it a real gsi?

[stuarty]

Unfortunately not but its a genuine kit full dash etc it has cosworth recaros in it at moment unsure weather they will stay

[Scottcooper85]

If it's the one off eBay drop me s message if you want rid of the seats as I was pestering him to split them lol nice buy too, it was fairly priced I thought :)

[stuarty]

Yip its the very one yeah well happy overall believe previous owner is a member here too
Re seats i like the seats the red just kills them if there going u have called dibbs mte 😉

[Scottcooper85]

Cool cheers. Got a set of gsi seats I could swap.

good luck with the build anyway pal ;)

[staggy_gsi]

Looking forward to seeing more of this.

[stuarty]

Cheers Scott I may be in touch soon 😉
I was really lucky staggy I had a little help last minute or I was in same boat
I'll try my hardest with pics on this
But those who don't appreciate poor grammar I'll apologies now
I'm a dyslexic,bypolar technophobe but I shall try all pointers welcome long time since been around hopefully get it to some shows to park in the car park lol

[bazil]

You'll be in dykebar before the end of the month lol

Fair play for getting back into a nova.

[craig green]

That looks a good base to start from. Wheels look good etc.
Re' the Recaro's, I'd be inclined to keep them unless they have been fitted so you have no head room. Std Vauxhall seats rattle too much for my liking.

[stuarty]

Cheers bazil but wont be going there it will be therapeutic lol

[stuarty]

Yeah there pretty well fitted just not a fan of the red material in middle but thanx for advice I won't be too hastey then

[stuarty]

Love the wheels..... suit a white Nova.... and something different.

[stuarty]

Well visited an old friend I gave away long time ago well its coming home soon http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/01/25/12edb25ff7a486f04c0694c0eee2bb99.jpg

[stuarty]

I'm bit undecided on the wheels but there staying unless a better offer comes along

[NovalutionGSi]

I think in all the time I've owned Novas I know of 6 or 7 that have had those wheels on, 4 of them being my own! As I say, its something a little bit different to the Normal. In fact it looks a little bit too much like my old GSi although it did have a mk1 front end on it.

well today I got it off trailer fitted 1.2 engine and box got it running then fired it onto our home made ramps ready for some welding at the rear not far off mot now hopefully 😊

[stuarty]

I doo like the wheels just prefer 16" wheels 😉

[NovalutionGSi]

Ramps look awesome! You can fit a set of V6 286mm discs and calipers with those wheels too. it is close though!

[stuarty]

Cheers man
Its running Astra gte brakes I think
They should be adequate for my needs lol
