I think a 106 gti/vts engine would be good in a light weight nova.

The last & only one I saw, the aforementioned problem stopped any further progress.

custom mounted engine further towards the passenger side inner wing was quite a big job it sits about 25mm closer to the inner wing than i would on a honda

PHOTOS lol

So the 25mm to the N/S is enough to allow the gearbox clearance?

Pics needed mate!

yes when also including the 25mm strecht lower arms and steering rack so allows 50mm ish extra clearance on the gearbox side pics will be on later today when i finish work

Sounds promising mate. :)

i'm just in the process of mockin up some drive shafts when the mock ones are ready they will be sent to proprop.co.uk to be made as a one piece solid shaft

yawn lol

i konw some people dont think its pos because of the amount of custom work involved but i'm an engineer by trade and my dads a trained mechanic and engineer also so its a little easier to over come some of the probs
