I always run big brakes, out of choice, and driving like a "Hero" so to speaklol
A standard 1.2, with a sencible chap driving it will be fine.
My nan never had any issues with her 1.2 nova:thumb:
well here are two pics of tonights goings on, got my new rack ends on and track rod ends on. then put my new o/s lower arm on and new ball joint.
what have i started about the brakes!!! im not changing them! the car will not get thrashed or driven like ive stolen it, and apart from the dash clocks the rest is staying original/standard!
stayed on tonight to bleed my front brakes, and put the front wheels on, so next week i will sort out my rear brakes. need to connect the hand brake cables and fit new shoes and cylinders! i need to get it a rolling shell so i can then move it into another garage to start the bodywork!!
Long time no see or speak martin you ok?
Looking good on the nova mate :thumb: i think i want to paint my inner arches soon :)
Hows the saloon going aswell?
hi mate how you been doin? ive been good, been doin alot to both the nova's recently! just put a pair of bilstien rear shocks on the saloon and re-painted the inner archs on it. got my ochre bumper tape off edd today so will wait for a dry day and put that on. my boot on the saloon is getting painted at the mo, so ive got a pea green one on at the min, then get my drivers seat bolster sorted and i will be happy with it for billing then! how you getting on with yours mate?
what colour is the saloon going??? when will this beast be on the road aswell?? you dont see that many brazil brown novas about so will be a nice change lol
nah, not changing the colour of the saloon mate, the paint on the boot went all funny, looked like it had a load of spider web cracks in it, so its getting painted again at the mo. the brown nova is mocca brown which unfortunately, personally i dont think is as nice a brown as brazil!!! but its different!
