This was the first Nova i heard of with modded stub axles - welded 20mm higher on the beam. Springs were chassis dynamics. The car looked awesome on the day, mega clean and low but not running right.Quote:

Oh Dave France was experimenting with lower stub axles in 1995/96, before Gary Hope built K95 VHD

Nope, Avo GTZ or something, their ultra low kit. To be honest, its a pain in the arse and soon to be replaced with some Bilstein coil over struts..Quote:

Marcus's nova never had a 1.6. It started life as a 1.3SR in helious blue, and then he fitted an XE on 45's, 17's, GSI kit etc and had it featured in Max, front cover car!Quote:

I'm gonna change my billy & coilspring setup for Full Avo setup, with eccentric top mounts etc. I know its not the best coilovers avaliable, but i'll be able to run it very very low :D
I can get Avo coilovers for ?350 + VAT new if anyones ever interested!
Keith

SOME DICK GOING HELL-FOR-LEATHER AT BRUNTERS NOVA DAY.....
http://img41.photobucket.com/albums/v126/RJM25R/brunt.jpg[/img]
Oh shit it's me in my old car!!! GSI'd up SXI. Ran a 16.89 qtr at 81mph. 29th fastest out of 200 on the day!!! not bad to say it only had 1600 with a filterand exhaust and a fat passenger (and driver lol!!)
I'd just bought my shell for my purple valver, and immediately after Brunters, I gave my white nova to my girlfriend. I'd had it since it was 18months old (registered july 1992 i bought it jan 1994) and she sold it in '02 to buy a calibra!!
Where is everyone with their pics again???
I will post more, just have some other stuff to sort out at the minute :|Quote:

I'll go back through the pages tomorrow and save all the pics and put them on my Novaload Archive Photobucket account - Wouls it be a good idea to either sticky this thread or start it again as some pictures have already gone.Quote:
