anyway, got her out.. had a little blast, forgot how much of a smile it put on my face, only been 2 months but still... got carried away and managed to slide the front end around whilst doing a quick wheelspin lol

well the novas being neglected recently so me and Graeme Dixon set about helping its stopping power

started the other week when we were out in Graeme's 1.2 and he "showed" me how good his breaks were. after nearly dying of whiplash i thought to myself "gotta get me some of those" lol

luckilly Graeme was getting rid of his the week after, so today, he very kindly came down for me with them and even did most of the fitting for me lol. only downside to the day was his water pump breaking but mission-o-scrappy-scav is all set for tomorrow :thumb:

anyways, heres the old little things:
