    Engine looks awesome, nice work.

    Cars looking sweet too, nice to see a nova with a set of 16s/17s? on that aint speedlines or softstars.

    Cheers guys, yeah the engine has taken me a long time just because of all the chrome and hours of polishing! Other wise it would have taken half the time to put it back on the road! But I have always wanted it to look like that so I thought I would take my time and do it properly!

    Yeah they are 16s but just look big in those pics! I think it might be because there 195/40/16? Don’t know if I am going to keep them?
    Was thinking of getting speedlines but I do like the fact that I haven’t seen these on any other nova! Don’t know if they look a bit chavy tho?

    Are they Fox wheels?

    If so I would consider changing them for the weight saving alone. Fox wheels are made of Lead I rekon!

    But the car and engine look stunning, credit to you sir!

    Quite a few rims look like that.
    Kahn RSRs/replicas, Masitaly look quite similar.

    No, there called Atek. That?s exactly why I am thinking of changing them because everyone thinks there fox wheels which we all know are pretty much cheap budget wheels that you see on kitted maxpower style cars!
