Keiths Nova Turbo Project

[Gaz86]

Just admit it, you're hooked lol "just one last hit!!!!" It's in your blood, there's no escaping it! Sometimes I wonder am I too old to be buying fast cars and modding them but then I stop myself and think, I'm in a decent job, have a house etc etc so why the feck not!! Plenty would be jealous

 

[KeithRobinson]

Has to be done. I know a Nova inside out now so I find them fun to work on. Still loads of headaches when you take them to this level though. I helped restore a friends SR to standard and that was a pleasure compared.

Thats the car almost finished now. Just mapped by Steven Gault.

Kept the boost safe at 1bar - 286.7BHP / 311LBFT

See you all next year at the shows!

Looks great Keith. Can't wait to see it in the metal.

It’s never gonna be for everyone lol

Nice one Keith. Ever had the car weighed with all the changes? Its bound to be still under a ton

Was 920kg last time. That was with half a tank of fuel etc. Will use the same weigh bridge soon and see if it’s any different

 

[KeithRobinson]

Picked the car up tonight. Couldn’t have had worse weather and it’s now absolutely filthy lol!

It’s an animal, but also silky smooth to drive. Steven has done a superb job mapping it.

Can’t wait to get some dry weather.

 

[JH86]

Seriously love it, no way could you of picked a better colour

 

[KeithRobinson]

MOT passed today - pretty much marks the end of the rebuild.

Still some niggles to sort, but overall the car is now very much drivable. Looking forward to enjoying it in the dry weather.

 

[KeithRobinson]
