I hope they work on the road, cos touring cars are damned stiff & have very short suspension travel

Very very nice, but is there much point on a trailing arm with a crap ARB design?

You're looking at one hell of a project in fitting those.

External reses look on a dam short tube to make it even harder.

There are ways around tubing the back fully that can get it down properly ~ be careful about spring length & travel.

Then you'll only need to think about beam length or mounting points.

Nice coilovers :thumb:
Don't bother trying to fit them to a Nova, just hang them in a box on the living room wall :D

Cool. Just a shame they will be almost hidden.

Maybe bond some Lexan/polycarb windows into the turret so they can be seen from the boot.

then aim a bullet camera at it, use a PiP box to put the image into the corner of the main camera on a track day.

that would look the spuds.

Cars purley for track use. So dont have to worry about that.
