Not a bad idea as I don't really like seeing the wires.

Cheers, I really can't wait to give it a good clean though. It looks horrible at the minute.

Well today I booked it in for MOT,

As promised the parts I got the other day, only bought the door cards for the mint pockets.









I fitted the standard gear gaiter and a four speed knob just for ****s and giggles!

Side repeater was fitted then on with the kick panels.



Glove box,



Door cappings and the door cards. I will be swoping the actually cards for lewis' Sx ones when he pulls his finger out and give me them!!!

Just a couple of the outside to.

[Lewis.]

so close now I'm very much looking forward to MOT'ing it

I'll sort the door cards out over the weekend, and I found your seat rail covers in the back of my Nova too

[Lewis.]

Dan has forgotten to mention quite a big detail...

Update this you gayer! x

[Balley]

Okay so big update, yesterday it went for MOT. Lewis from here kindly tested it for me and helped me set the head light up etc. Any way it passed once the headlight had been set up.

On the lift




Then after I finished work we met up at the local meeting point..



All in all it drives fairly well and seems to go pretty good to.

Today I set about the tail gate with the DA and a mop..

Poor photos I am afraid.


Fitted the badges



The paint looks dull in the photos, it really isn't though

Bonnet badge.



And at work earlier.



Right well I have a few more plans for her now. After using the new turbo set up I have noticed a few things. One its a little laggy but does pull very strong to around 5200 rpm and the other is the engine runs much cooler under hard driving. I am achieving 20 psi in 3rd 4th and 5th and the temperature gauge barely moves which is fantastic as it used to go sky high. My only issue is like I say it is a little laggy. I have since found out about a slighty smaller turbo I can directly fit on to my set up and try out. Should solve the problem, why I am there I can fix my slight oil leak from the return to. All in all I think it was worth trying and once I sort out the turbine A/r I think I will have a very lively little Nova, even now its fairly damn quick for what is.

I will keep you all updated once I manage to source a turbo. Next job for me is to clean it all up and finish the mopping and pretty much enjoy it
