top job, absolutly beautiful,

Like I said before Dan - Looks really good
You've even got matching colour co-ordinated Straps for your trailer - poser
Dan. Car looks excellent mate. Graphics set if of perfectly without over doing it. Really awesome example you have there mate. Nice towing motor too!!
Track should be highly entertaining with that !!
Look forward to catching up mate. Sooner rather than later with any luck.
Hi dan, hope that bit of graphic is ok and has stayed stuck lol. Seriously though, it's win as car of the day was fully deserved. Your enthusiasm, keen eye, and willingness to do what you think is right has made this a supeb car imo. Can't wait to see it blasting round a track!
Thanks guys, its nice to know a vision i had in my head at the start of the winter has been accepted so well :D
Yeh john the sticker is fine now, alas i wont be at PV which is a bummer due to a wedding on the saturday but will be at billing with it going by the feedback and general comments on the car :thumb:
Ok chaps the first drive/outing is now over and done with, the car was awesome and stood upto almost everything it had thrown at it, i have a few more details in the club section with some pics, here's a couple just to update the thread :thumb:

Looks great out on the track fella :)
some good photos of it there :thumb:
looks like a beast i really like this with the graphics
Looks stunning!! Graphics look great coming down the rear arch.
How did you find XE power compared to your old small cock?
I'm guessing it all about the power delivery, iirc his small block was 140 ish bhp so not that far off a std redtop.
Looks so planted dude. Sticking like glue.
The only comparison i can make to my old car would be the balance and feel of the car. When taken into consideration i havent driven anything sporty nova wise for 18mths plus it was just "ok" speed wise, not ballistic down the straights but the c20xe mated to the quaife sccr box and a 3.9 f/d made it nippy enough for some fun. (mind you i am hard to please with speed, first lap was fun finding what the ratio's were like, but then by the second lap it was as fast as it was and that was it, needed to find more speed in the bends to have fun)
Its key area was the corners, more than enough grip with the tyre wheel choice and the plate diff, with a few tweaks and possibly some new tie bars/arb etc i should make the front end more planted to maximise its potential. It drove fine and was balanced fantastically just like my old grey car, which was good as i thought/hoped i had dialled out most of the big block weight and equaled it to my old build.
love it mate , as said loads of times , another car the will prove that big blocks can handle lol :thumb:
that looks sh*t hot matey absolute belter off a car!!
I think im gonna have to buy it back off you for exactly £1 more than i sold it to you for! ;)
Really good car mate, sounds like it has taken you along time to get it to this standard. Ive got wide arch nova, ile upload the pictures soon, once i have my 15 posts!
OKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
So here we go again, breif recap, built car finally did trackday and chassis needed more from engine as standard xe was pants.
Cure???
Some new toys obviously, that will finally compliment my straight cut box and diff etc (pics courtesey of wwmnw)

Yup i managed to source an SBD 208 tb setup for not alot with some new leads chucked in and a set of cleaned and tested injectors (saves me the hassle :) )
That should up my spirit when on track and enable to maybe find some of the current hidden limits of the chassis :d
oooooh pritty bits! I'd love some TB's but couldn't justify the money :( Hence some bike carbs!
Now these must of been dam cheep then! as last time we spoke i said TB it and you were like, umm maybe, but i dont want to spend... oh look (as Dans on the Internet looking for 2nd hand TB's while im on the line) lol
Glad to see you did the right thing, it will now do what you build it for!
Wouldn't mind letting you loss in mine to see how far it's capable of being pushed..
IS this the set off ebay?
The ex toruring car ones?
Ooo they are pretty.
these were on ebay but only breifly, basically a new setup but at a snip compared to new costs, as scott mentioned i do take my time but always get what i want at the price i want
Late night ebay FTW :d
