I realy cant be arsed with my wide arch corsa project anymore tbh so im tempted to leave the x16xe thats in it and just finish the bodywork on it.

Ive got a nova which ive had since i was 15 but have never got round to finishing it.
The nova will be standard bodied bar a set of gsi skirts and a set of cav fanblades.

XE in the Nova! What Nova is it? Unless it's an SR or above, surely the sideskirts will look out of place?

The nova would be a long project though, as in strip to pretty much bare shell and send it off to a mate of mine who does race car preping.

Would have a PROPER cage in it and all 4 strut tops connected to the cage.

It MUST be the Nova. The XE will be wasted in the Widearch Corsa. Big wheels, big kit, it would be slowed down A 1.6 is more than enough in a showcar I'm biased though as I love Novas
