The Grean Machine

[Rich]

Ive missed not having one, saw this fairly locally so went to have a look. Its in pretty good condition for a B reg. Needs rear arches and rear parts of the sill, but otherwise its solid. So now back in a nova wondering why, they really are awful! the brakes dont even feel like they have a servo Im the 4th owner, the first and second being an old lady and her daughter, i have every mot since new and loads of receipts.

Plans are rear arches and sills, lower it on some astra gte wheels, 2ltr brakes so it actually stops before hitting somthing and a passenger mirror.

Interior is very green but ill probably leave that alone. Doesnt even have an FM radio, all i can get is a sports chat station!










These are only the pics from the sales advert, i will get some more soon

Yeah standard Novas are crap but mods make them better. Looks like its got an early brass servo, apparently the later ones are better.

Btw, whats happening to the turbo project?

[Rich]

Ive still got it, im going there either sat or sunday to do some bits to it. Ive made a bit of progress but nothing really worth updating

Nice !

Good to hear your still on going with the turbo as well

I'm on the look out for another as well

[Rich]

I thought if i get another it might give me the motovation to get the turbo done. They arent the only plans, my mates got a 1400sr lump and ive got a full gasket set here to put the 1.2 head on it, but ill end up spending too much Just need to make it a bit more fun to drive, at the moment i dont want to drive it

Found it on gumtree day after it was listed

Bbbrrrrrrraaaaap

Suspension, brakes, and more than 30bhp transforms them quick enough, or you could just pull your finger out and build the proper 200bhp+ one, you might want to drive that

i need this one to get to the garage to build it
