Iain's 20XE Trackday Nova

[John]

Lol, good old skateboards still being used for engine removal .

[Iain]

Had to find them and dig them out from when I first fitted the engine

You haven't found any holes yet?, your'e not hitting the usual area's hard enough

[Adam]

Whens the XE going in?

[burgo]

mmmm a blank canvas.....lovely

[Benn]

Squezzing? hahaha

So what are you refitting then? Keeping the 1.6?

[Leeboo]

Good progress there mate, I remember seeing your Nova in a rolling road feature in Total Vauxhall.

I say maybe a bit of headwork and a cam in the 1600

As above, nice work IAN, look like a really nice clean shell actually, got some tasteful mods already done to it, a nice engine would be my next step (no offence btw )

[Adam]

Iain's engine is impressive for what it is.
Kept with my 1600 16v no probs at all!!!

(his is fully stripped though )

[Iain]

Out come the weight advantage excuses Just because you couldn't get away from 96bhp of pure grunt.

Think I'm gonna keep the 1.6 for the time being yeah, might try my first engine rebuild on it. If I manage to strengthen the bay it'll be good for whatever in the future though.

I think we got most of the usual spots first time round.

Been trying to remove the brake lines tonight, all came off fairly easily except one front flexi that's being a bugger.
