C20LET Nova

[A5H]

So..... Around a week ago i went and got myself a LET Nova

It started life in red as a 1.2 LS

Spec as followes

C20LET engine with full rebuild 550 miles ago
New clutch
3" Uprated top hat inlet
XE inlet cam
Pace charge cooler
Uprated silicon hoses throughout
New V6 disk and pads
Full power flow exhaust system
F20 gearbox
Had a full respray (not happy with rear arches though)
GTE interior
GTE did dash fully working

I got the car from someone who didnt want to finish it and needed the funds for another project so its not a show car

It needs bits like roof lining as it has none, needs a horn fitting, loads of little bits mostly, it does have some bad bits but i will get to that as i do it

This will be an ongoing slow project so bare with me

So here are a few photos, i will get more up later

Bar the black engine bay that looks ok. Good place to start a project too.

Is it the one with a sunroof? If so PM me

I will be keeping it for now, it gets a bit hot in traffic but ok once you get going

Thanks for looking in and as i said there still a bit of money and time that needs to go into this

Had quite a big problem with it already which im a bit gutted about....

The alternator belt come off and on closer inspection we realized the bottom pulley come off and the bolts have sheered so a new crank pulley, alternator / bottom pulley, cranks pulley bolt, maybe washer, V belt and timing belt kit is needed

What a pain, will update once i got the parts

Yes i got it a few weeks back from Birmingham

It was advertised as having new suspension but im sure i was told it was standard and it looks standard to me

Im still in contact with the person i got it off so will confirm tomorrow

If it's coilovers the backs been jacked up to stop or reduce the rubbing

its hard to say but looks like the wheels are the wrong offset there well out on the arches

roof lineing is non sunroof sorry


Bad news on the engine id be checking every nut and bolt on it if that happened to me now
