Nova 1.0l Project

[Mazz]

Whats stopping you routeing the normal one that way?

[Spudly]

Its too long to do it, whereas im guessing that one sits nicely like that (or even in the normal routing would look better than a standard xe cable) and has the correct fittings at either end

[Dave.]

Be careful how you route the cable, if you route it wrong it will stick and cause it to rev its plums off

Nice little addition on the throttle cable.
Its sorted the most stupidly designed thing on a xe
Yeah lets just route the throttle cable hanging over the engine bouncing off the cam cover

You know hat till i just looked at my old car i forgot they were like this! as Ive been so use to looking at an XE on TB's

[Dave.]

Well seen as how ive removed my sub setup (ONLY 18 year old with no sub in their car round here!) Ive decided a nice little touch would be to go all factory with the audio, so picked up these

2x SC201's (Came standard in poverty Novas)



1x SC303 (GSI standard item)



And this beauty, mega rare CD300 (Optional extra in cavaliers and Calibras, note the LCD display on the unit unlike Corsas Vectras etc)



Cant decide what one to use, as the CD300 doesnt illuminate when the headlights are on anyone know if this is an easy fix?

[Southie]

The most up to date will be best due to wattage, the original head units were lacking in sound and distort when your tunes are banging

Do any of them have aux ports on the back to let you plug in at least a external feed through a headphone socket?

[bainyboy sr]

nice mate have you had it out yet ? youl love it , wish i had a valver in mine when i was 18

[Connor]

Ohh liking the headunits, i changed the old (broken) original headunit to an pioneer optional extra headunit out of an '84 micra. Only problem with mine is that the manual knob tuner is hard to get the radio stations, and with the tuner knob being the bigger one, i always use that one instead of the volume one .
How much did the headunits cost you, like the philips one? Heres mine, looks awesome at night as the whole thing lights up in the old orangy light and looks so retro .

[Dave.]

Well ive spent yet another wad of cash on the Nova, literally not even got a pound to my name now

This came up... loads of people have said its all thats needed to make the car 100% perfect, and it was complete...

Here goes...



























































Yes ladies and gentlemen... a FULL GSI INTERIOR! :D
Its 100% complete, uncut doorcards, no holes in the dash for immobilisers etc, near enough mint seats with only a tiny hole in the bolster, all the trimmings, black handles black door seats etc, literally the whole inside of a 37,000 mile GSI







Dash... with the new CD300 rare as fook radio, steering wheel wont be used though keeping my MOMO one



Seats, cant even see the hole once its touched in~







My boss said "Looks like someone brought a nova in for work and it rusted away overnight"



Hopefully get it fitted this week once i find some split rear seat bracketory
