Well I didnt come here for abuse, alot of you were more than willing to be nice when you wanted the 17's I was selling.
I dont look down on Novas the way some other VX drivers do and I dont expect greif or bullshit towards me.
Unless I have inadertently stumbled on a boyracer site and not an enthusiasts site.
At the end of the day my car is quick, I didnt come on here sayin I will beat you all blah blah blah, thats not what its all about for me. I just thought the more sensible ones amongst you might be genuinely interested in how a Modded Valver engine goes in an Astra. Seems I was wrong.
Attitudes like I have received tonite doesnt help the way others look at you.
I posted the same videos on a Cavalier site and have had nothing but praise about the way my car goes.
Don't take it personally! I love all fast cars and i say "thanks" for posting this!
Cheers

We dont know what the BHP is yet but its estimated to be over 175bhp
Hoping to get down Santapod soon to get the 1/4 mile times but sadly I cant make the RWYB on Jan 25th. When I do get there im goping to be looking for a high 14 second run.
Lots more work planned for the car as time goes on. Money is tight at the moment so its going to be a while before I do much else to the car, its bloody good fun to drive though I will say that.

You will need the latest DVIX file to get the videos. Failing that try RealOne Player or these
http://nic.dnsalias.com/xvid.html
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow/
Always welcome to see vids of fast Vauxhalls (or any Vauxhall for that matter), obviously I should tow the Novaload line and say "That engine would be good in a Nova" but that aside I'm happy that you've posted the links.
Couple of things though, and take these comments how you like, you stated in your 2nd post "Attitudes like I have received tonite doesnt help the way others look at you." So does posting vids of you doing 122 MPH on what looks a fairly busy motorway and over taking at 70+MPH on a single carriageway with oncoming traffic do much for all of us as Vauxhall enthuisasts?
Also maybe it's not such a good idea posting a pic of your car with it's reg plates on full view along with those videos of you blantently breaking the law? After all this is a public forum and you never know who could be viewing this thread.
Just a couple of observations to take as you wish.
looks nice not a fan of the wheels ;)
