You couldnt offer me enough, thats why i would never sell i dont think. Same i imagine Nick will feel when i trys to part with his.

They arent worth alot in the normal sense, but i really couldnt put a price on what the car has got me over the years.

It boils down to weather you have enough space to keep all these cars at the end of the day. I think i would rather have mine crushed and use it as a coffee table than see someone else drive it :lol:

Yes i am definately getting one scott though its going to be atleast september before i get the kit, ready for summer 2006.

Well i guess he just wants to move on, fair play hes had his fun and hes owned it for aslong as the age of some people that use this site (thats not meant to be an insult) There comes a time when you can make them too mint and they become undriveable, just an expensive ornament.

Where are you Nick? Your very quite lately :wink:

Hi!!

Not been on here for a while.. really busy at work at the moment :cry:

Ive advertised the car to see if i get any interest.. had a couple of emails but nothing serious!!

Like Karl says i'll probablt never be able to part with it if it came down to it, but if someone offers me good money then i might do!!

I cant get enough of the vx.. love driving and want to spend money on it!!

Martin Kelsons is looking the muts nuts!! always been a favourite of mine!

Cheers

I know what you mean Karl, if i ever come to decide to sell or break mine the only bit thats not going to be for sale is the shell, thats going in the crusher as i dont want anyone else driving MY nova!

Nick i cannot believe your going to sell it, i hope if you do sell it its to add a T badge on the end of the VX220!

we'll soon see!!

Took it out for a blast last night...first time since sept last year..

How ive missed the sound of those throttle bodies 8) but its just not a VX!!

As for the VX i was thinking more Supercharger than a T 8)

Get on with the conversion Dave...

Cheers

I think if this had come up a few months ago I would have had the car off you!!! It's pretty much the one that got me into novas, but unfortunately I've just spent all my cash on a new turbo/transfer box/clutch/service/fuel..... and a few other bits and pieces.

Could you not put the throttle bodies from the nova onto the VX or are they completely different fitment etc?

njc11

04-04-05, 11:31 AM

There aint enough room to get them in the vx :(

It there was i would have had them on there by now!!

The only other thing that would concern me if somebody did a tb kit would be the extra heat the engine generates...

I have heard that jenvey were possibly going to be doing someting for the 2.2.. But at the moment courtenays Hitec Supercharger option is favourite 8) stage 2 265bhp

Courtenays?

Thought you didn't go much on them?

The supercharger conversion they are doing seems to be getting excellent write ups!!

Its not cheap, but considering the performance etc it has to be an option.

More relaible i reckon than a turbo as well...

Cheers
