simon_p's nova sr!

[simon_p]

is the map sensor the thing to the left of the ecu?

if so theres a tube going to the carburretor, and some wires going to the ecu

I noticed the GSi ECU and map sensor, wonder how that works.

Probably doesn't

Tis a clean nova, should be good once he's finished tidying bits up.

[simon_p]

right

finally the engine seems to be looking progressing

i bought a 18e engine, as found in the mk2 astra gte and the astra sri and various cavvys etc.

i know these turbo quite well, as courtney did the pace astra, so i am going to put a blower on mine and a few other bits

didnt know that they were the same engine as whats in the daewoo espero, and found one with a complete engine and gear box, genuine 64k with service record for ?50 delivered to my house.

just needed a wiring loom, and it finally appears that i have managed to source one!

the engines almost in bits now, just gotta take the bottom end to bits and dress the whole engine

i have someone ready to make a manifold for me, and then its a case of finding a nice cam, bigger injectors and fit megasquirt or something.

i will be uprating bolts etc, new bearings and the like.

hoping for about 170bhp of reliable power!
