[blue_peg_16v]

totaly agree about the mirrors but i did fit them when i was 19 8 years since so ill excuse myself, wouldnt have them now

[wisewood]

to be fair 8 years ago they were "in fashion"

[dj-kicks]

both of them are smart as ****!!

[dj-kicks]

i love how you have the bonnet bulge from a clio on your saloon also.

its a shame they never came with the flared arches

[Jack]

its a shame they never came with the flared arches
Hatch arches don't suit the saloon at all IMO.

That one looks spot on though, pretty much how I want mine to look eventually.

the bonnet is phil lofthouses old one of his yellow valver, its a real metal bulge weldeg to the nova bonnet.

Martin

[barnyvaux]

hay great job on the saloon very nice.
wot front splitter is that looks the nuts....
o and good luck wiv the etc is it turbo??

[Jack]

Hands off, I want that :p

[blue_peg_16v]

think im going to get a system custom made for it

the front splitter is a mk3 golf vr6 item makes it look very low

i have a regal phase 3 c20let lump for the gte

[hendrix]

THATS THE SALOON!!!!!
Thats the one I saw a fair few months ago on my way home from work....the 'what saloon was that' saga is finally over :-)
looks awesome.
Look out for me in a Europa Blue astra coupe turbo coming through doncaster every day. My car lives near tesco by day

[blue_peg_16v]

will keep my eye out which tescos, once i re mot the saloon it lives near the lakeside by day

[hendrix]

The one near frenchgate, its actually in a locked carpark at the Fastline depot so unlikely you will see it.
I saw it on the M18 but can't remember what car I was in.
Do you know anyone with a mint white GSi on speedlines in donny, I usually see it heading into town as I'm leaving

[blue_peg_16v]

nope dont know that nova, i live at moorends which is probably why you saw me on the m18, usuall use it every day to go to work but its failed the mot on emisions so needs a trip to boggy for a set up

[Dan 130]

saloon looks nice mate

[blue_peg_16v]

cheers

[dave.gsi]

that saloon is ace.

first one ive ever seen that i wouldnt mind owning.

think id be quite tempted to put the turbo motor in it though:D

[draper]

saloon looks good mate, i cant wait for RJ to get bored of his so i can buy it ;)

[sr-rompa]

just a general question how low is the nova saloon and what set up am you using am woundering cause i have a nova saloon project

[blue_peg_16v]

that saloon is ace.

first one ive ever seen that i wouldnt mind owning.

think id be quite tempted to put the turbo motor in it though:D

i am tempted too put the turbo in it but there was a saloon a simalar colour to mine with hatch arches in tv a few years ago and people still think mine is that when i go to show, so thats why im sticking with the valver.

[blue_peg_16v]

just a general question how low is the nova saloon and what set up am you using am woundering cause i have a nova saloon project

the saloon has been lowered 90mm, cossvaux got the spring specialy made at a place in sheffield for me, then i have kyb uprater dampers on it, also have a gsi rear anti-role bar and have removed the front one.

[dave.gsi]

^^^^ who gives a fcuk about that???

doesnt matter if there was 'once a blue saloon with turbo power in tv'!

at the end of the day, the average 'mug' on the street isnt gonna have a clue whats under the bonnet of it.


plus, how many turbo novas are out there?
ppl see a nova hatch nowadays and the least they expect is 2.0xe under the bonnet...... another turbo hatch isnt gonna suprise anyone really

[blue_peg_16v]

very true i suppose

will see i keep toying with the idea we will see what happens when i get back off my hols go a week on monday.

does make sens realy to put turbo in the saloon, but just keep thinking about a light weight drag weapon with the hatch as with the leather interior and everything in the saloon its getting a bit of a lard ass lol

[dave.gsi]

^^ so it needs a big motor to pull all that weight along!

[LX]

agreed...the front splitter looks ace

[blue_peg_16v]

dave im starting to get tempted now, we will see what happens which ever way i go though i want the turbo running for combe in september.

the splitter was an idea i nicked of a mate, he had a gsi about 5 years ago and put one on it. ive got one for the gte too
