Default 72 Nova Autocross update
After doing some Goodguys and SCCA autocrossing this past year (I got hooked) I've decided it was time to make some upgrades to the Nova so I could be a little more competitive.
Upgrades planned so far are...
-new tires; Falken Azenis 245/45 R17 and 255/40 R17
-upgrade factory 10-bolt differential; 3.73 gears, Moser 30 spline axles and Detroit Trutrac
-CPP "totally tubular" upper and lower control arms
-Viking double adjustable coil overs and rear shocks
-CPP AFX C5 spindles and hubs
-13"rotor upgrade to my existing 4th gen Camaro front disc brakes
-FAST EZ EFI 2.0 fuel injection

Here's some pics f what's done so far, let me know what you think....
