Hello
I am thinkin about getting a MK2 golf GTI, but I dunno if I shood cos their not very quick. Iv got a nova 1.3 sr wiv K+N and magnex system and it eats golfs for brekfast. I have raced loadsa golfs including the VR6 an beat them evrytime.I even raced a V5 4MOTOIN and pulld away in evry gear until about a ton then it caught up a bit.I think they look OK but their to slow. If I get the 16V, wot mods can I do to make it quik?? My mates got a modded uno an he says even he can beat most golfs
Ta
jim
P.S. Wots the insurance group for the 16 valvers cos im only 17

hello sKrEwBaLL!!
-
eh...!??!
-
Ive got a 1.8 8v an aint any sr novas that have managed to beat me not even close. ???Sure they were GTIs or did they just look like it (anyone can stick a badge on a car).
Mate of mine used to have moded sri nova and still didnt compare to the golf .
:D
-
*picks self up off floor after laughing*
group 14 for 8v and group 16 for 16v afaik
to be a proper race you have to both agree before u start you're racing. u can't just overtake a v6 golf and say you ate it for breakfast when the other guy could of just been tootling along and keeping up with you. (or though it wasn't worth the fuel racing a noisey nova ;))
mods? more air = more fuel = more power... ;D
-
I really do not think your 1.3SR has mk2 golf gti's and definatly not a VR6 NO CHANCE.. A standard GOLF gti mk 8v or 16v would beat a nova SR in my books.

i have a Nissan that could beat it?! lol, as long as we don't race near corners. or in the wet. nor uphills. nor into head winds. and if we compare how much oil we both use, mine will eat your Nova.
sorry, couldn't help myself....lol

hey nova boy what lump you running? you got a courtney calibra turbo lump in there? other wise i cant see you blowing vr6s away! have fun any way in what ever you buy, but just remember the golf aint the quickest car off the block, but style handling and a top cult following more style than anything else!, ( hey by the way not saying the golf is SLOW but yeah some cars are nippier, but id rather have the looks and the style)
-
im gonna go for a 205 gti insted of the golf cos their much faster and betta build quallity than golf's. i actaully wanted a saxo but cant aford it.
jim

Oh dear i seem to have a problem with my sight, For a minute there i thought you said your 1.3 skoda, i mean nova was quicker than a golf gti. but of course only an idiot would say that, guess i read it wrong!!!

Do you fancy your own mum? :-*
-
no why? do you. can c why u'd fancy my mum. being brung up by somin so amazingly ugly, its nice you still call her ur mum though. i mean i saw your mum after the op, surgeons are good but not that good. tell your mum its whats on the inside that counts. cheer her up bit. but then again if its whats inside of her that counts then thats alot of dicks. cos shes been around the block. speaking of hings that go round the block, would ur skoda/nova go round the block???? vauxhall??? ummmmm??? no!!!!!!!

Oh dear spelling isn't your strong point is it? you thick c-o-c-kboy.
-
Get a golf GTI and feel the power, if you think you can take it.
It's not the car, it's knowing how to unleash the power.
Drive a gti & then get back to me & if they are so slow why are u even interested in them?
-
hang on a minute....
what is a anti-Golf guy doin on this forum in the first place?
Golfs rule ha ha ha. ive had my say and you cant do nuffin about it. :P
-
Punch him in the face till he's dead. :o

oh boy a no go SRi!! What's the SRi stand for anyway. Should've recycled it? Run along now it's past your bed time. Yes he is baiting but it got a laugh out of me. I do have to say the 205 GTI is a quick car. too bad it doesn't corner, or hold together, but then sgsin it is msde by peugot. Le crap!!
-
Le Crap....ohh thas a killer! LOL
-
i woud just like to some up Nova's are complete sh!te ( iknow my misses had one) pugs are quick (or can be ) but still sh!te GET A GOLF HAVE FUN AND BE HAPPY .you only live once so live without a NOVA!!!! heheheheehehhehehe!!! 8)
-
The way I look at it is. If I am going to go fast. I may as well be able to stop, and corner, and not have the bloody thing broken down all the time. Thats why I have always liked the VW's. I have had performance cars by other makers in the past and always came back to VW because they hold together. The new trend with performance cars seems to be "let's buy a jap box and race it just like in the movies!" Great. Where is that Evo or Skyline going to be 15 years down the road? more than likely in the scrappies yard. :)
-
German is best, Mr 'doesn't go' LOL!!! ;)

A wind up me thinks.
:o

Nova quicker than a gti?
Jordan has an I.Q. of 180????????????
Oh and I must say that the 205 gti wasnt as quick as its own heater matrix dumping antifreeze allover my feet - and the way it has to tickover at 1200 revs when the lights are on at night just oozes quality!
Ive got a number for you nova boy
0800 800 800 - Call NHS Direct - you have compulsive ignorance disorder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I guess a nova would be great if U are 17. I recently drove a 'boyed up' 205gti, it was alright wizzing about up to 45mph (maybe 50 at a push), the build quality etc was absolute toss though! fortunataly britain is covered in hills, so we all need some grunt under our bonnets, a golf can provide this!
(i asy this with a small pleasantly supprised smile, having only owned one for 6 weeks!)
-
I had a Pug 205 1.9 GTi before my golf 8v and I would never ever go back. The peugeot spent more time off the road than on it, the build quality was terrible and if you ever have to do any work on it (which is quite often), it was a complete b!tch.
I only got the Golf because it came along at the right time and price and I love it (now that my heater is working).
-
cant be arsed to read 4 pages of replies so I will just say to Mr NovaSR, your bum is for sitting on not talking out of ;)
Beat a VR6 etc ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D joker.
Besides I think this is just a regular poster who has reregistered to wind you lot up............
-
Mr NovaSR shares a bed with his own mum :D
-
this is all said from the man (boy) with a vauxall ::)
-
Good to re-read a classic thread here - has a taint of anovadose about it I reckon :)
-
A typical clown this one is. Don't be surprised if he drops in a line later on to say "I'm sorry, I made it up".
For now just lol! ;D
-
i have a mk2 8v gti and i have easily managed to beat gte's and gsi's no problem i think they do 0-60 in about 9.5 seconds so i dont think that a 1.3sr could come anywhere near m8!
-
lol. What a stupid, ill informed claim to make. At the end of the day it's a nova, I can't really say i've ever seen a nova which is 'quick' in my life. Oh and how the hell is a 17 year old going to afford to insure a Gti of any sort?
-
This all sounds very familiar....I think I've seen this nova.
Nova driver, where you the one on the seafront last year, bent over your bonnet with your trousers round your ankles while your mum sorted you with a strap-on? burberry cap? lots of argos catalogue gold on your wrists?
You should really try and do that kind of thing back at the trailer park with your cousins/sisters.....
nuff sed freak.
(if you really exist which I doubt...) 8)
-
I have raced one of my m8's who used to own a 1.3 nova SR in my mk1. We were going down some back roads near my house, I?m doing about 50-60 and he is all over my arse. After about a mile we came to a dual carriage way section, so I let him pull along side of me just so I could look over laugh at him as I dropped it into third at which point he started to drop back and disappear into the distance. To cut a long story short when I cane to the next island he must have been 1/3 a mile away! The funniest part was watching him in the rear view mirror trying to take the last island and ending flipping off the road into the nearest hedge. :D
-
At the end of the day, speed isn't everything.
Sure the MK2 GTi is a hot hatch, but its a classic in pretty much every respect. I dont think arguing about how fast you go, or who you beat really compliments the car like you should.
I'm sure all you true MK2 enthusiasts out there know what i'm talking about. The feeling you get just by sitting in the car while it is off.
-
If speed is not your thing then why buy a GTi. I've seen some lovely mk2 CL's for sale that are a lot cheaper than it's GTi equivalent and less likely to have been ragged, or if you must have the trim then a nice golf driver. Don?t come on here saying that you?re not a proper enthusiast just because I like to drive fast sometimes. And no I'm not a true mk2 enthusiast, I am a VW enthusiast. >:(

Well all's that I can say is..I get in my 8v on a nice sunny morning (it hates the rain)and I head out to the nice twistest country roads by ours and have a feeckin blast. ;D ;D ;DThere is nothin out there 2 beat it..So it is not just about speed..It is pure enjoyment.. :D..My car is 15yrs old and still takes the p*ss out of these new cars with there traction control blah blah blah..Give me a gti any day..
-
yeah but just not an 8v :D
-
Got 2 agree with U there.. :P.Me old Mexico was a blast..and so was me 628i beama..But the 8v around the bends..WOW..The car just looks and feels the part..THERE IS NOTHIN OUT THERE 2 BEAT IT.. ;D
-
LOL that nova kid made me laught, My CL can take novas pritty easy ;D There is one good use for a nova tho, Demolition derby anyone? ;)
-
Just look out 4 any stray bunnies..ask miss vd..hope she is ok..and cows..See 1 of them in the road and yea need a change of underwear..Come on farmer close them f*ckin gates after yea.
-
miss vd ?? :D
-
Yea.Sorry about that..missvdubluv..Iwas just doin shotr hand
-
Short
-
the best way to solve this is to just not respond, however i feel i must. I feel sorry for you mate in your nova but i spose we all gotta start somewhere. Good luck with your gti, if you buy a decent one then it won't need modding, you should really drive one before you come online and flame everyone, then you can join the rest of us and laugh at poxy baked bean tinned cars with nova badges on. ::)
ciao for now

BEST THAT NOVA BOY PASSES HIS TEST IN A CAR B 4 TALKING LIKE THAT!!! 8)

Ive got a mark 2 gtd 1.6 td and I kick nova's arses for fun whenever I encounter them. Whats novaboy on about ?

I have to say that everyone is entitled to an opinion. There are several possibilities here:
1. The Golf 4 Motion was parked at the side of the road when he beat it.
2. The Golf 4 Motion was in reverse.
3. the Golf 4 Motion had had its wheels nicked and was running on its discs (probably still would win actually.
I had a Nova 1.3sr when I was 17 and it had a K&N and an exhaust and I have to say it was pretty quick compared to my 950cc Fiesta which it replaced.
I owned a GSI Nova at one point and it had a few engine mods, and I was wasted by a Golf TDi.
So sorry NovaSR, no disrespect but I think you may have been smoking the herbal ciggies when you passed the stationary Golf 4 Motion.
Amen!!
