New Nova....

[Ste L]

Got myself a new nova :D
got given it for free, so i can't complain
some of you might reconise it as coxie's old one, which he was putting some mad arches on

plans for it are to replace the rear quaters, new front wing's and throw some of the gear off my sri on to it, and give it a new engine because its only a 1 litre

going to start stripping it tomorrow hopefully

there some large euro wheels on the front :lol:

[Mike.]

not bad for free lol

[ade]

how come he gave it away - thought he had big plans for it!

:|

TBH the rear arches look okay - would be good if you were planning bigger wheels like 17's...they dont look too bad.

Certainly look different (in a good way)

Ade

[ANDYRACER]

I was looking forward to seeing how them wheels would fit in them custom arches he was making. Like Ade said y did he give up?

[Ste L]

baxter - yea, the are 16" borbets, took the rears off to try on another car

Ade - gave it a awya cos he lost intrest, and has got a 205 gti now

andy - the rears didn't go near the top of the arches, he put them on too heigh, its got no springs in the back, and it only just covers some of the tire....

[jamie gsi16v]

how wide are them front wheels? how do you fancy letting me have them?

[Rexy]

I tried a set of Borbet A's on my nova they were only 15's tho wasnt too sure about them tbh. But the 16" jobbies look kinda kool on that.

[Mike.]

theres some borbets on ebay now, they don't look to bad imo, i'd buy them i just don't fancy doing all the arch work


didn't think it had rear springs on the rear lol :lol:

[STE Novavanman]

Stunning wheels

I'd definetly get some custom - subtle wide arches made up (bit like Mad ricks front ones) just to squeeze over those wheels

it'd look awesome then

[sUpEr_1200]

man that thing looks phat, i wouldnt mind some wheels like that on my beast!!

the front ones what borbets are they cos they sure as hell dont look like borbet a's, but i may be rong!! :D

[Ste L]

wheels aint mine, didn't get given them with it....
but he said, if i carry on with the arches i can have them, but i don't want to do that

been back at the unit today, didn't get much done, cos i ended up ripping an engine out of an 200sx and fitting it into a new shell

some pics

that engine looks tiny in the 200sx

[Jack]

Thats because its only a 1.8

Should have put an S14 engine in there :P
