quick spec off the top of my head that i know:


early 20XE block rebored to 86.25mm

H beam rods with ARP bolts

86.25mm race pistons with deep valve pockets

fully balanced and lightened bottom end

billet lightened flywheel and ring gear

4 paddle helix clutch with

polished and ported head with knife edged ports on inlet

+1mm oversize valves on bronze seats

double valve springs

330 degrees touring car spec cams

vernier pulleys

solid lifters

4-2-1 exhaust manifold which is matches to the cylindar head, i.e unique for the engine

BRAND NEW DCOE twin carbs (45s)

F20 6 speed gearbox built by quaiffe

fueling will be controlled by a facet race fuel pump and swirl pot, fully braided through out the whole car

the car is being prepared for the bosses son who is the driver and his dad is navigator .they already run an imprezza in another class which they won last season so this season will be running car one .he always wanted another nova as he used to run one on the road ,it should be an interesting season as this nova is not far off having the same bhp as the imprezza and only 2 wheel drive. as for what its worth finished i would at a guess say some where between 15 and 20k as parts are not cheap in this game ie the new wheels were close to a grand just for a set of 4
