YO bruv, take a look in my garage
I built that nova from a bare shell in 2005, stock xe, lsd, coilovers. AP brakes and a few other basic mods, dropped into the 8's round the ring on my first visit with it and ran a 13.051 with 100 shot of gas up the pod. It was dismantled and sold in bits in 2006 when I started building my MK2 Escort.
Its the same car in the video I posted above.
Anything Evo, GTIR is going to be a money bit and should not be compared to owning a xe nova.
why shouldnt a evo or gtir be compared to a nova
... at the pod a decent evo will batter the nove.. 4wd.. pulsars run everage 12s .. and not much power.. they grip up and fock off. where as nova will be spinning. you got a good time at pod but then look at the power u ran.. u even had 100shot nitrous
... thans bloody mental! fast car for a fwd and on a decent straight will destoys scoobys,evos n what ever,. but over all it wouldnt! kuz theres bends,roundabouts, twistys!
