that does look very smart

[rednova]

you can lower saloons a bit more than hatches depending on the offset of the wheels - because of the capacious cave like arches you can get away with a lower offset mines lowered 60 with 38 offset wheels ( i chose this as the 49 offset wheels looked lost in the arches and wanted to bring the wheels out a bit) i reckon i could go lower tho:thumb:

I'll take some recent pics of my sally if i can find my camera

thats because I have no rear springs lol

Its got monster tyres as well (195/60) so the wheels look quite big. My red one was on standard ride height with standard wheels and tyres.

I'll be lowering the blue one a little when I get the suspension done, but I'm not into slammin' rydz on da deck, yo safe innit etc... 35/40mm will do me fine.

[db_1.2]

I got a set of mint -40mm springs somewhere round here if you wanted them Jack?

Yup, thats the front valance trim. Haven't gotten round to fitting it yet so its still tucked up nice and safe with the other bits :D

I see you got your skirts on - did you need an extra bit to make the length, or did you manage to get them to fit?

[craig green]

Length?

The wheelbase is the same isnt it for all Nova chassis'?

love this one me...makes me think about starting a 4door project

[craig green]

I'm most fond of the 4 doors, something just looks better about the lines around the rear windows. I'd love to put the 3 door hatch, box arches onto a 4 door & do the rear door shuts like a Lancia Integrale.


LOL @ the rust imperfection. lol
