just got the nova 1.2 spin (whooo0) and now need the best info on go faster, stopping and handling.
got the wheels sortes, 15"ers, fill the arches nice, scoped the 2ltr brake stuff, on the job, but need more go.
whats the easyest stuff?
straight engine swaps with no hassle would be great.

oh, and have been offered a 1.6 honda crx engine for free. has anyone done this and is it worthi the hassle, personally. would like to keep it vauxhall, but free is free, and i'm a student!!

ta!!

its the easyest job for the money and hassel factor. electrics would be a direct replacment.

gte/gsi engines are the most powerful standard engine that came in the nova. anything bigger is a task to fit.
