cavturbo owners slagging novas, and help NEEDED!

[x20xevnova]

hi, i bought a 40,000 mile cav turbo. putting the motor in my nova. which is my first problem. what wires do i need out of the cav for the engine? and second them idiots on cavalierturbo.com where giving me loads of sh*t for owning a nova. check it out its on the forms- for sale/wanted. im c20letnova obviously lol.
cheers

[Ste L]

you drive a nova, most people will slag you off, get over it lol


as for wiring, basically the same as xe

[Philsutton]

they can slag you off all they want but you have a cav turbo which is being stripped lol, apparently there are less than 500 in the country now because everyone buys them to put the engine in a nova/corsa. We wuoldnt do this if the cav was so overweight to start with.

[x20xevnova]

so what will i need to take out?

[Timmy]

sorry i found that funny as hell nova's rule shame everyone dont understand the hole nove exsprince

[burgo]

i have to say if i got hold of a 40.000 mile cavvy turbo the last thing i would do is strip it especially not for just the engine to put in a nova. i say your a fool

[Stuart]

burgo, its simple economics...... the car is worth more in bits than it is as a whole. so break break break...

if it was worth mroe in one piece then yes hes a bellend, but its not

[Will F]

I dont reckon it is worth more in bits tbh..

The Cav Turbo geeks will spend upwards of ?3500 if its a genuine 40k... Worth about ?2k in parts if you're lucky.

Calibra Turbos are a different story....

people just dont understand the nova, i didnt!!! untill i needed a cheap but still fast fun car, and I WILL SAY NOVAS RULE. value for money, cheap tax, VERY FAST for what they are, they can take a beating, parts might aswell be free, what more could you want, and despite what some people say i think the nova looks good, with its standard lines and arches ect,

[KRIS_537]

if you found a mint cavalier i would not break it, i havea cav and a nova best of both worlds. if i was in your shoes i would not do it.

but if you are going to what nova is it going into. i do not know if you realise but if you put the engine in a nova you will twist the chassis. i can promise you that. the whole bluk head needs to be strenghtened and seem welded.

also your suspension will need uprating and you will definatly need the cav brakes or better on your car.

[Philsutton]

^^ that goes without saying, if the cavs were a fast car then no one would rip them to pieces, but they are just too fat.

[Lee]

The only reason theyre ribbing you is because you are killing another of their beloved cavs to give another nova a rebirth.

The Cav and Cally fanatics really hate us for that, and i think its really funny.

Just laugh and tell them you'll be gentle with the angle grinder LMAO

[Philsutton]

Just laugh and tell them you'll be gentle with the angle grinder LMAOlmao, im never gentle with an angle grinder
