[nova~norm]

Has any one on here fitted 2.3 v6 in to a nova b4?any good?or best to just put in c20xe?advice pics ect etc please

[Stuart]

best off with a 2.0 16V, easier, as fast if not faster in most senses bar preahaps top speed but meh

[nova~norm]

v6 would be alot heavyer too am i correct in saying so?but would sound ace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[burgo]

been done plenty of times before but not worth it really due to the weight and with the amount of custom bits you have to make. having said that im doing it lol

[Ben]

Not much heavier than an XE, size is more of an issue as its deeper but do fit fairly easily.

Depends what you like driving.

doesnt have to be ;), then you can mount it slightly higher for the clearence insues underneith

[Ben]

There is no clearance problems underneath its the slam to bulk head clearance raise it there and you will need to jack your bonnet up and it just wont sit right.

Yet to see this nova, and most of the pulsars I've seen around here sound like someone shaking a metal bucket full of nuts and bolts.

[burgo]

ooo a fella megasquirter, im gonna have to have a look at that

[Snowface]

good for the strip with the extra weight over the front wheels.
good for dragging you into hedges on corners too.

Good coilovers with 350lb springs should see that right though?

[Sloth]

yep, plus the corsa epas helps, i have it wired so i can vary the resistance manually, in car, oh and 450lb springs rr'd (rr@d) on tuesday, should be fun!!!!!!!!
