Nova

What an awesome little car.

I see it at Trax, it went past and it looked like a right shed until I see what the guy had done to it. I like the fact that its matt black, no doubt it is so as he keeps chopping and changing bits of bodywork to incorporate different mods along the way so its easy to keep it looking reasonably tidy in black.

The engine in the boot is a bit of clever engineering, hat off to the guy he's obviously spent alot of time on the car.

As for its 2+ second 0-60, we will never know but I see it run and it was pretty quick, just as fast if not faster than a 400+ skyline whether he had a head start or not. Most Skyline's I see at the event ran late 3's or above, with the same air of accuracy of starting point as the Nova.

Of all the Nova's I have seen and hated, this I liked, I dont who owns it but who ever you are well done.
