I thought I would make my offering to the old school Nova thread.
Had this SR from 1989 to 91, this was the start of my love affair.

I bought this car new in Oct 1991 from a dealership in Carlisle. Within six months it had a Blydenstein B+ pack conversion.

In Feb 1995 I fitted a Cav GSi motor with SRi F16 box. By this time it looked slightly different.

No I had them on the SR, sold them seperatly, then bought them back when I got the GSi. The three spokes just didn't do it for me.Quote:

I wondered why I couldn't log in properly, seems like I've got two accounts - ahhh double trouble!
Returning to this one from a year ago...
The GSi is due to go into the workshop for a bit of a makeover.
Sport asked "Where's your sport" - well .... it evolved into the GSi, the original shell got rolled at Mallory Park in 1995. Most of the Sport bits got modded / sold over the years.
Now for this makeover - we're talking lots of lightweight panels. Ideally I want to find a Mattig kit, but I don't hold out a lot of hope. So will be looking for the widest Nova kit going, which at the moment is the rally-x wide arch kit. Also want GRP bonnet, tailgate, doors, roof skin (Might have to make my own roof skin). Aiming to get the car as close to 500Kg as I can without going to full spaceframe and cutting loads of floorpan out as it needs to retain as much of the original "fabric" as possible.
Boots will be 9x18" slicks.
I may upgrade the anchors to discs all around, if I can keep ComptonCJ away from my spares.......!!
I reckon with it weight less than the pimples on a flea's backside, and just shy of 200hp from the 1600, it should be pretty well unbeatable in a 1600cc class.
It hasn't turned a wheel since 2003, so it'll get a full strip down before I fire it up again.
