I remember that prob with my old metro :roll: it looked standard from out side but under the bonnet was a rally spec mini engine that I had built with a jack night 5 speed straight cut box & 4 paddle clutch running on petrol/meth mix at the weekends :roll: :lol: :lol:

 

[Baxter]

iv been looking at stright cut boxes but its over £1000 just for the gears, :?

Yip thats what I paid 14 years ago for mine :roll: they can be very noisy so if you don't like the sound of screaming gears don't get one or fit a powerfull sound systen to drown the box out :lol: TBH it was a pig to drive in traffic every day to & from work because of the clutch :roll:

 

[Baxter]

iv got open throttle body noise, stright through exhaust system

sound system :lol: it dont even have the wires for a head unit, music is to heavy :lol:

wow, sweety took my words.

so nice to see a booted nova modded at all.

always thought could make a good project
for rareity value alone plus if wanted body
kit could add a cracking whale tail etc.

mind you never saw many 5 doors done
either.
