dan16v
16-11-06, 11:15 PM
yes!! or maybe m3? more practical?! none of them this year though due to going from ?30 a week rent all in to ?1200 a month just for the stinking mortgage:cry: lol

Ben
16-11-06, 11:28 PM
I been looking at M3's there cheap enough but the Evo's are still holding the vlue and at the end of the day if you buy a 3.0l one you will only wish you had got an evo lol

Chris
16-11-06, 11:58 PM
I trust you are talking M3 Evo's there Ben and not Mitsi Evo's as the Misti Evo market is on its **** at the moment

Stoo
17-11-06, 12:01 AM
I was looking at M3 Evos before i got the DC5, wish id gone for the M3 now as, with the EVO Market, the DC5 market is right on its ****e!! Been up for sale for 6 months and nothing at all yet!!!!

Cars looking awesome dan, just get it finished!!! Inspiration to get my **** in gear to get mine done!!

Ben

Chris, dont insult me, we were talking about decent cars not a galant on steroids!

arent the m3 evos just 318is' on steroids?lol

id have either anyday but the straight 6 would win in sound stakes alone

Chris

Sorry to take your thread off topic Dan.

An M3 aint anything like a 318 on steroids, it is a car designed with competition in mind and it is very successful, and Evo is just a Lancer with a bolt on rear subframe and a turbo added to give shed loads of torque.

Chris

P.S Cars looking great Dan

how'd you get your nova so shiny? isit glacier white?

very nice, stunning engine, and wicked private plate! ;)

dan16v
17-11-06, 10:10 PM
how'd you get your nova so shiny? isit glacier white?

no mate its toyota super white! realy bright in the flesh!, thanks for the comments lads! yes i want the evo m3!! in estoril blue! evos are cheap imo circa 70k for 8-9k! on say an r plate, heard you have to watch out for the vanos on the evos though!

Stoo
18-11-06, 12:12 PM
The VANOS is similar to Hondas Vtec, and yes its expensive if it goes wrong!

Ben
19-11-06, 12:57 PM
I dont think the Vanos is that problematic, sold a few of the engines and the BMW enthusiasts dont seem to be scared of them in the slightest.

Stoo
19-11-06, 01:01 PM
Its not problematic, just if it does go wrong, it can be very expensive!

Jos
19-11-06, 08:03 PM
How can you get away with no front facing number plate? :wtf:

Loving the cars though :thumb:

27-11-06, 12:50 AM
by far my favoruite nova iv seen on here,its mint!! subtle mods look good,go with the small decal mate oh and let me know if u ever want to sell,ot that u would like lol but id buy it straight away.

dan16v
30-11-06, 06:11 PM
thanks mate! i get away with no number plate as it hasnt been driven or mot'd for about 2.5 yearslol or maybe 3 now!! any way its basicaly running now just need a timing gun sesh, but need an extra pair of hands!

Ben
30-11-06, 06:45 PM
Dan its been almost ready about 3 times, then you rip it apart again, so im not going to hold my breathe!

dan16v
30-11-06, 10:50 PM
no mate it needs to be driven this time!! honest! though i would like a t34 for it as i wanted around 350hp and the t3 will be on its last legs at just over 300 or so im told!
any way got a mate round and went through some settings increased them slowly now it is idling at about 980rpm, pritty smooth but could be better, its just off tdc on the timing gun. garage was getting fumed up so we decided to do the rest another day when we can get the main door open!
thanks to Rob with the spider as he has helped alot with the autronic!:thumb:

dan16v
02-12-06, 04:21 PM
had another play on my own today! got the timing bang on after the timing gun was matched to the ign mean value on the lap top!, imo it is idling as good as it did on motronic!http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif on the down side my stat housing is leaking like a mofo!! at first when i looked underneith the car i thought it was the water pumphttp://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif all in all pritty good, abit smokey but it smells of fuel so i guess its because its on the rough map? and it doesnt like to rev much, starts poping and banging!

scott.parker
02-12-06, 04:45 PM
God dam your still playing with your self...i mean by your self with that car..

Fair play mate,ive been on nl for 3yrs and dont think i have seen that car move(apart from being pushed in and out the garrage) lol

Dose look like it's getting there now though mate,so keep going.

My mate mike his 1600 8vT pops and bangs on his DTA when you take it over 4krpm due to it not getting set up properly,as for mine...ha ha,well thats sat on the drive from when the AA towed me home in may...lol

if it all goes well ill do the cam cover and top hat, then do the header matt black aswell as the boost pipe! going for the industrial look!
still waiting for 2 bronze bushes to be made for my linkage, once that is done the car can come off the jack and i can do the hand brake cable! then its off to Mark for some map tweeking:)

07-04-07, 04:25 PM
lol! turn up for the books today!
went home to collect some stuff out the garage and thought id have a good look for my digi dash transducer! after about 30 fooking seconds i found it! then even worse 1 min later i found the dam handbrake connector part i needed for ages then went to vaux and bought one! DOH!

Ben
07-04-07, 06:41 PM
All that time you saved looking you can use fitting then, so get on with it.

dan16v
07-04-07, 06:59 PM
maybe 2moro! no point messing with hand brake till the new shoes come in! may fit the trnasducer and horn 2moro!

dan16v
16-04-07, 10:51 PM
small update, done all the handbrake cables and re newed the hand brake pads and springs etc works a treat!, also ordered a new slam panel so that is coming in tommorow!, half my bronze linkage bush is done:doh: realy holding me up as he also has my rear g/box mount so the car is on axle stands at the moment!:rolleyes: changed the clutch cable to for a proper gen one:)
one thing which is realy starting to annoy me!! wires! to many of them, looks a mess in the kick well, not sure if im going to take the dash out yet and re route them!
oh and horn is now fitted, less the wires! and fitted the dash transducer to the box!
just 2 bolts to sort and a hand full of wires:eek:

Ben
16-04-07, 11:05 PM
Steady on, sounds like progress!

dan16v
17-04-07, 05:55 PM
i know scary mate!!lol
Any way!!
small update got the slam panel today! almost felt 'wrong' to chop it into peices :lol:
have got some nice alloy button headed bolts to mount it with!, i did not mount it as my engine is sat to far forward, as it has no rear mount!
start with this;
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/2007_04170001.jpg
chop it up abit;
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/2007_04170002.jpg
make room for manifold;
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/2007_04170004.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/2007_04170005.jpg
job done bar drilling to holes and painting;
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/dan16v/2007_04170006.jpg

Also one thing that always baffles me, why when they know some thing is to be painted like a panel, do they insist on putting THE most stickiest stickers all over it known to man! :confused:
again sorry for the phone camera pictures.

took it up the private road the other day at my house! first run it blew a small coolant hose! dont think it was on too well! second run it went fine! only running 0.35 of boost to be safe, Mark seems to think it will do 300hp@ 1.2bar after that its up to me how much further we go with it! will see how the running in process goes as im sure there will be faults!!lol
every thing is done for the mot! so we will see how it goes!

Rick Draper
21-06-07, 10:28 PM
Looks miles better now dan. Only thing with the cam pickup is with the cam cover been rubber mounted is there not a chance it will possibly vibrate slightly and cause ecu faults?

At least yours fecking runs. O to have mine rolling on 4 wheels!

dan16v
23-06-07, 04:54 AM
Rick should be fine imo, once the cam cover is bolted up most of the squish/movement is removed from the rubber any way! done about 60miles on the set up so far with out an error;)
get yours sorted, you were full of hope the other day, now your on suicide watch with it againlol did you sort that oil weap?

hughesthelegend
23-06-07, 08:11 AM
looks great mate, one of the best novas on here, matt black intercooler looks more stealth so its easier creeping up on evos and scoobys and embarresing them!

dan16v
09-07-07, 10:45 AM
thanks for the nice comments!
sorted out a small niggle, oil pressure was dropping off as the revs went up, as suspected the pesky pressure relief valve had jammed its self open!:mad: greased it all up and but a shim in, to put abit more pressure on the prv, all is well again!
i have 20 more miles to go then imo its run in, so will flush the oil, and put some semi synthetic in there along with a new filter, may also drop the sump and clean out any metal fines from the running in process!
also swaping the dizzy for a distributerless coil pack set up as it has a random missfire! :roll:

Jonlem
10-07-07, 12:18 AM
Finally ! good to see this is finally on the road.

PS You want to hope if you remove the sump that is NO metal filings anywhere ! anything in the sump has been round the engine which is not good if its bits of metal.

Random misfire could well be the cam trigger location imo, it should be bolted directly to the engine, not a cover which could easily vibrate, the smallest of movements could cause a random misfire as you describe.

Coilpack is a good idea either way though :)

dan16v
10-07-07, 10:33 AM
imo there is no movement in the cam cover once the bolts are tight, i have done about 150miles on the set up, if the miss fire was cam pick up related it would show up as a sync error, and ive had no errors since moving to this set up!:)
removed the sump after some swearing and its totaly clean!:) better to be safe than sorry i suppose!, glad i did it as it peace of mind!

Jonlem
10-07-07, 03:06 PM
Thats fair enough, If it was mine I would mount it to the actual engine but I appreciate your way of thinking.

dan16v
10-07-07, 05:10 PM
maybe in the future i could look to use the standard vaux no1 pick up in the dizzy cap blanking plate!, the pick up can run out by 5 degrees advance or retard any way:) plus Mark told me to put it in the cam cover and i trust his advicelol

Jonlem
10-07-07, 06:07 PM

just been up and ordered the new sump gasket, so will have some fun fitting that either this afternoon or tomorrow, also ordered the new bosch ignition module as i need 2 to run the coil pack, all that is left now is to order the correct plug and pins for the module and the correct 3 pin one for the coil pack!:)

Lee Page
23-07-07, 11:34 AM
Man thats beautiful, love the black inter, such a good idea, super sleeper.


Whats the deal with running it on cheap oil?

dan16v
24-07-07, 03:35 PM
should run an engne in on mineral to get a better ring/bore seal as it creates more friction on the bore!
done the sump gasket! **** of a job on your back!, took the engine loom out as it was starting to get a mess in the footwell so thats looking better now, just need the coil pack off Rick, so should be running again by the end of the week, which could decide its future!:eek:

small update for any one that is intrested;
car has been at marks for a while as he is fitting a dwell board in the ecu so i can run a single ignition amp on the vaux coil pack, car was running but now isnt, poss a dry solder joint on the new dwell board as there is no signal between the ecu and amp:eek:

Rick why would you want to buy Dan's nova? you had (if you still don't,and have now broke it) a good one you painfully built for years..

Ive spent (and wasted) so much over the years on my nova's now and i just cant see the point in selling it, unless there is no other option.

04-12-08, 06:55 PM
Scott, Rick saw my car up at MA developments, and from that point on, he knew what a proper nova should look like!, hence why he wanted to get rid of his gay pink bling rolling on 18's chav halfords carpark styled nova!

I could not be ****d to break it, id rather take a hit on the money tbh! and im after an e46 m3 and gf wont let me have one unless the nova or escos goes!lol

Just got the m3, but would deffo not say its boring!, nail it in 1st and 2nd and the traction control light is on and off like a strobe light! foot down in anygear and rev it to 9k, goes like a train!:D all good so far for a daily driver!

will sort the nova if i can be arsed, depends if Rick stops being tight and hands me over 3k for the nova!lol

Ermm lol lol

Sub 8.30 round the ring in a nova turbo, I'm yet to see it lol

Also been doing 168mph in one too which isn't shy for a factory standard car that won't melt whilst doing top speed work LOL

Proper cars the E46 but they are a tad too normal, nothing frightening about them, my mate sold his 400hp 3 door track car one and was really dissapointed.

If you want some proper Bilsteins for that Dan he has some that he won't be using anymore, iirc pss9 or something along those lines, the ring spec ones.

sums it up really:D another point to add the m3 has been pritty fast for the last 62k, something most let novas probably wont be, ie something will break/fall off etc!, im just enjoying jumping in the car and driving, no hassle etc!

Not got room at home for another car tbh, so would sit outside, which i'd hate to see, Rick has promised me he will not brake it, and has every intention of using it. So with that in mind, id rather see it used than sat outside my house in the rain!

When your pimping in a M3 that needs new tyres and brakes, own a cossie that you keep pulling into more and more pieces i guess the need for cash becomes greater and greater :cry:
