My mates Nova van, I expected a bit quicker, and I'm sure it will do it!

Best time of the day was 12.6

Quality.

Would have got a mid 12 if he did get a crap launch.

Why don't he fit some small wide-ass slicks on the front

 

Hes got some of those Prada tyres from Yokohama, they madea bit of difference.

But some full on drag tyres would make it fly off the line!

 

Not bad barry son

 

that's fast!

What are the spec's?

 

nice

 

Quick spec is...

Low comp pistons, steel rods, some head work, some kind of porsche turbo, 550cc injectors, EDS phase 4 chipset... think it made 376bhp. Then some NOS on top, but not sure if its using that there.

Chris_S that posts on here occasionly did a 12.3 with a car supposidly running 330bhp last year

 

John - What happened with your mate that got charged?

 

sweet

 

is that the cossvaux van? what suspension has it got and how low?
it look very nice

 

 

Yes its the old cossvaux van!

I dunno how low it is, I'm guessing 60mm at front, and I know he just chopped the springs on the back

 

saw this last year at redline rumble, when set up for the 1/4 mile, with the back end jacked up and running sum more serious front wheels n tyres.

mite have a video of it somewhere with it going up against my mates pink/blue/white nova, the non turbo, on twin 45s with no nitrous, and that stil did a 13.4

 

Damnn...that's stunning

 

Love that van.

Well since the 0-100-0 thrash at brunters we did i fookin love all calibra turbo powered Novas and Corsas, they stupid fast.

Before that ive driven a fair few 2litre 16v non turbo ones and been pretty bloody unimpressed, but the turbo ones, fuuuuuuuuuuuck

 

was bleedin freezin sunday! you should have come tim!
that vid is a 2nd gear launch by the sounds of it.
there was supposedly no traction, but


he did a 1.9 60ft??????? WTF?
I had a couple of runs in it at ran a 13.2
drives horrible compared to mine! still .4 behind though!

 

I got told he had no traction, but on that video it sounds fine to me! And a 1.9 60ft is very good!

Just got home from getting them wheels.... fook lol

 

think ive seen this noova run before, sounds lovely and goes like stink

 

Proper weapon..

I nearly bought it a while back but built this instead



Stripped, caged, proper

 

That is cool as fuck! How much are Nova's?
