mMMMMmmm dribble** i love this car lol ..

[vaughanmc]

are they Khan wheels or Masitaly??

[Stanley]

Im sure my mate spotted this at JDM dyno @ Kirkbride a week or two ago.

He was in his silver Civic EG with black wheels.

The owner (at the time) said it tramlined like a motherf*cker and was horrible to drive.

Get some pics of it with the slabs on!!!

Nice car otherwise!

[ReeceH]

they are masitaly wheels,ive never heard of them so just gonna sell them lol

yeh it went to JDM couple week back to get setup properly.

yeh when i got it the accelerator felt horrible,very stiff and there was no bite point,wasnt nice like. so had a look at the throttle cable holder in engine bay and it was being bent because of the cable not being pulled straight so we modofied the cable holder and feels much better now i must say.

handling is abit wierd like, but then again a dodgy wheel bearing doesnt help atall lol but its still all over the place when you put the power down like :S

[ReeceH]

**posted twice**

[R1CH]

Looks alrite like, if it handles dodgy then you could always stick the motor in one of your other cars !?!
Was it on the rollers @ JDM ? what kinda crazy power did it pull ? lol

There masitaly v5tr's, i used to have a set.
I'd keep them on, they look a bit more interesting than cav gsi ones.
Unless the handling is v.bad with them.
There quite rare wheels too.

The throttle pedal will be stiffer with tb's/carbs, as your opening 4 barrels instead of one.

Car looks quite tidy, nice buy.

[draper]

stunning car, just the wheels let it down and chav slabs are **** aswell

[vaughanmc]

iirc Khan RSR's look quite similar to them wheels

they don't suit a Nova as much but they are mint wheels

[NovaLad]

Them wheels are huge.. Imagine trying to do handbreak turns lol

[KPautomotive]

looks good matey.

Need to tidy up that engine bay tho!

Whats with the water hose running over the top of the throttle bodies?

[krobinson]

Looks a nice car, its been on the scene a good few years. It was on ebay advertised thats the whole shell was a bit rough, It still looks good tho. Have a good poke around and get everything sorted before you spend big cash!

Did it not used to be owned by someone called Karl, numberplate H12 KRL or something as it looks familiar.

[SRlew]

yeh i would leave those wheels on, just slam it, unless there making it handle bad, to many people have slabs now thats why i want a change

[craig green]

Aye. It used to be white IIRC. Old skool PNG car, its been on ebal plenty but those wheels look horrific on a Nova tbh. You can tell they look pap a mile off, I'm not surprised it tramlines! Check engine mounts too if it torque steers.

nice colour though & subtle is the key after all.

[Dan 130]

this was on ebay not so long ago in slough if thats any help

[macc nova]

im from macclesfield and never seen it before, looks good though

[Novadex]

not my choice of wheels, but i dont think they look too bad!

[craig green]

yeah but they just arent meant to fit.

But so long as they look phat, who cares if it tramlines or torque steers?

[ReeceH]

[Mike]

agreed :thumb:

[Rick Draper]

anyone know the car as its from down macclesfield way i think?


Nope i am from Macc and i have never seen any novas around and about other than Maccnova's one for many years.

[craig green]

Looks awfull IMO.

Looks like its std ride height.
Black wheels & blue paint just dont go.
Panel fit is horrendous.
Rusty arches
etc.

Its had a hard life at a guess.

[white2lSR]

ive seen this car about in town, what sort of power does it have?
pm me your number and we can meet up as im in carlisle also.

[valverguy]

IMO reshell the engine into a solid nova. then break the other shell.
