I will be replacing the majority with new on this, need to find some wheels 1st
And whys that then benn?
I had 3 different f20's in the original let before I went f28 and to of them decided to spit cogs through the box
ill be sticking with an f28 just need to get a decent diff for it
1. Weight,
B. You dont save anything in rev terms in 6th. In 6th at 70mph is about 3.7k rpm. In 5th (on a F20) 70mph is about 3.6-7K rpm too..
3. Can't get bits for them, when you can they are mega money,
D. I think they are more fragile than a F20.
4. The price, you can by 30 F20's for the same price as a semi good F28.
F. Just me here, but i don't think they drive as nice as a F20.
6. I'd build a spec'd up F20, which i'm looking at at the mo. Think Cable change and F18 5th gear cog, to really lower the revs in 5th.
H. Wanna by my re build F28 with Quaife diff? ;)
My box is in perfect condition buddy and I need to buy bits but if I had the spare cash I would, decided on getting a plate diff now.
Oh right I like the fact of having 6 gears in a nova lol. And I didn't have much luck with f20's in the past
I thought it was cool at the start too... It's worn off now. lol
Well seeing as the new shells already got the mount for the f28 I'll keep it for now.
big thanks for Chris gsi, I've got the registration of the nova and found out it was originally a 1.4 sr :)
Im glad i could help i have sent you another pm with more details on the car
Colin he done a vin check for me, don't believe he knows the history of the car
