you buy a car mag claiming to have the "uk's most powerfull supra " (at 1000bhp) only to open the mag to find that it only actually has 700bhp (a lot but not all that for a supra) and the rest is nitrous which i think shouldnt really count now if it had a permanent 1000bhp that would be more impressive although there is a 900bhp lancer evo in there which looks a bit tasty with a front bumper exit side exhaust :)

What's the Nova in there (any pics?) Is it a good one or some horrendous fibreglass creation with a puny engine (but it probably has a K&N so that's alright!!)

Cynics! I did my car for me and love my 'fibreglass creation' and have done as much to the GSi engine as I can (insurance is halting the larger engine for now). It has cost a lot over time but is only a fraction of the cost some people spend.

And it wasn't done for the mag - Total Vauxhall hassled me for 4 weeks but had to wait until I finished it and was happy with it and Redline got it through the bodyshop. And anyway I'm dam proud to be in them!

Al - I wasn't having a dig at you m8 - I like your car quite a lot, not keen on the front bumper but other than that it's loads better than the vast majoirty of Nova's you see covered in fibreglass everything with more neons and speakers than BHP!!!
