I haven't seen a thread on this but it has been mentioned a few times. This is the ultimate sleeper for sure. The power comes from a 402 cid LS-2 1250hp capable long block engine w/Twin ROTREX C38-81 Superchargers with Twin liquid to air intercoolers.

"At the 2006 Hot Rod magazine pump gas drags Kurt Urban director of operations piloted the super sleeper Nova to a best et to date at 9.680 @ 146.91 mph with plenty left in the car once some bugs are worked out and. Stay tuned for further perfomance updates and be sure to check out the Nova on the 2006 Hot Rod Power Tour!"

What do you think?

check out the entire build up HERE (http://www.w2wpowertrain.com/t-novabuild-2.aspx)

go to the link I posted with the whole build up. The tires arent that big....wait, you probably have 205's on your car....so they are big to you, but they arent big to me. How many pictures can you actually see the roll cage? Are you telling me that if you pulled up beside it @ a red light that you would have enough time to see it? If so, you are more observant than I. Also, do a little research on those superchargers. Just because they are there doesnt mean they are loud...

That's not sleeper. Those cars are forces of nature to be rekoned with in other countries besides here. A G14B built up is good for a 11 second pass or better. A K20 is a waste in comparison and has 1 too many gears. For the amount of money spent to power that metro, the G14B could've been installed and built up and slaughtering that K20. That's a FAIL on the owner's behalf and on yours for actually believing that financially it was a win.

PULLED FROM THE LINK I POSTED

BAER ‘Serious Street’ 4 wheel disk brake system

* Front 2 piston calipers with cross drilled and slotted 11” rotors
* Rear single piston calipers, with cross drilled and slotted rotors
* Dual chamber master cylinder

I would say the brakes are sufficient.

how fast does the nova run?



this is really a retarded argument anyway. that Nova has boat loads of money into it, and the Metro you refer to was done in someones home garage and is a STOCK k20, not a twin supercharged v8 swap. Of course the Nova would have an advantage. imho both cars are insane sleepers. Though pulling up to either at a stop light i would expect a Nova to blow my doors off before i would a metro. But to each their own, I'd drive the hell out of that nova :D

Not exactly true. I believe in cost effectiveness. That Metro could've been built cheaper and turned out way quicker with the same amount of money by going with a B series if they had to use a Honda powerplant. They could've did a B16 head + B20 bottom end and finished it off with a whole line of toga and/skunk2 parts and would have done the same if not better than that K20, which parts are quite pricey for. That K20 swap is a waste because of the money that was invested to make that thing run. You can scavage through all of my posts and I garunteed that you won't find anything that says that I hate hondas. To each is own but damn, be smart about making power. If you can spend less to make more, then that was a good financial decision and overall you have enough money left over to get more. Not just for bragging rights, like the guy in the Metro. I mean unless you like spending almost $10k for 250whp, be my guest. If you find that smart, then shame on you.

that nova with a twin supercharged V8 ran a 9.68. with all that money dumped into that car just in the fuel system alone you would expect at least 8.00 sec runs or low 9. but 9.6 c'mon now.
now that NOVA is a waste of money in my book, cause if it was fast car around a track, and a 1/4 mile track it would be alright, but its american and its not a corvette so you now its not going to do good on turns. so back to the point all that money for just straight aways complete waist of money and time now thats my OPINION.

And just how much do you think it costs to build an 8 sec car?

So your saying

Well, if I am not mistaken, the 9.6 was on street tires, and they even said there is a lot more that they can get out of the car, but they need to work out some bugs.

They didn't build the car to make turns, so that argument is utterly pointless.

I love the Nova. Very unique. Buuuuut... I wouldn't classify that as a sleeper. I'm sure if you were standing next to that beast with the motor running you wouldn't be able to hear yourself think.... not to mention what others have already pointed out regarding its non-sleeper like appeal.


WIKIPEDIA SAYS:
A sleeper is a car that has high performance and an unassuming exterior. Sleeper cars are termed such because their exterior looks little or no different from a standard or economy-class car (or in some cases worse due to seeming neglect on the owners part), but internally they are modified (or are built) to perform at higher levels. Some cars are equipped this way at the factory to suit the tastes of those who want performance without drama, whether understatedness suits their chosen image or lifestyle, or because they do not wish to attract undue attention of the police or car thieves. For instance, many high-performance sedans[/url] look hardly any different from the lower-powered models in the range; for example: the Acura TL Type-S (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedan), Audi RS4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_RS4), BMW M3 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_M3) and M5 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_M5), Buick Regal GNX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_Regal#Grand_National_and_GNX), Cadillac CTS-V (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_CTS-V), 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala SS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Impala#1994-1996), Chrysler 300C SRT8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_300#SRT-8), Dodge Charger SRT8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Charger_%28LX%29#SRT-8), FORD TAURUS SHO, [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_Marauder#2003-2004"]2003-2004 Mercury Marauder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Taurus_SHO),Volkswagen Passat W8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Passat), and Volvo S60R (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_S60#S60_R), among others. Cars with obvious external badging, or overt visual elements that give the impression of high performance, are not true sleeper cars.

Now that's my opinion.

ok now Mr i know everything
name TWO american cars that were built by Americans and in America that are even recognize to do good in turns, and did outstanding in a slalom test other than the CORVETTE. so check your self and dont let others cause it just makes you look bad.

now i want you to back up to what you typed and think about it for a moment :thinking:
IN -----MY----- OPINION. <---you got it, DUMB A$$. the OPINION part.

so let me try again. A car that just goes really fast in a staright line its ghey, stupid, and a WAIST OF MONEY. like that gay @$$ NOVA that has been posted as the ultimate sleepr like and trillion times.

its not a sleeper with a roll cage, with two superchargers, and those big a$$ tires on the back of that car. the noise that it would be making cause it has got to be camed would just give it away.

i bet if a MEXICAN still wet from the rio grande, that knows nothing about cars looks at that NOVA at a redlight he would say
that car has some cojones.

now that is the way i think, and you cant change it, its just one of those things that dont affect others, no one can do anything about it. But if you would like to try just lmk. (take it how you want to take it.)

Your list says 1999 Cobra R... as I'm sure you know there wasnt a Cobra R in 1999, it was a 1993, 1995, and 2000 deal. Not trying to be a smartass or anything, just thought I'd point it out.

now i want you to back up to what you typed and think about it for a moment :thinking:
IN -----MY----- OPINION. <---you got it, DUMB A$$. the OPINION part.

so let me try again. A car that just goes really fast in a staright line its ghey, stupid, and a WAIST OF MONEY. like that gay @$$ NOVA that has been posted as the ultimate sleepr like and trillion times.

its not a sleeper with a roll cage, with two superchargers, and those big a$$ tires on the back of that car. the noise that it would be making cause it has got to be camed would just give it away.

i bet if a MEXICAN still wet from the rio grande, that knows nothing about cars looks at that NOVA at a redlight he would say
that car has some cojones.

now that is the way i think, and you cant change it, its just one of those things that dont affect others, no one can do anything about it. But if you would like to try just lmk. (take it how you want to take it.)

nothing to comment i assume?

You're right. That is your opinion and I cant change it, but I can still say that it is fuking retarded....ITS FUKING RETARDED.


like that gay @$$ NOVA that has been posted as the ultimate sleepr like and trillion times.
Please post links to every thread that has this car in it. I can think of maybe 3 others.

its not a sleeper with a roll cage,
The roll cage is tucked fuk stick

with two superchargers,
The superchargers are super quiet. Do some goddamn research.

and those big a$$ tires on the back of that car.
The tires are 295s. the only reason you think they are "big ass" is because you drive a fuking honda with 195s. My car came factory with 275s on all 4 corners. I will have 315s in the rear soon. again, 295s are not big, especially when the car is making 1000hp.

the noise that it would be making cause it has got to be camed would just give it away.
not all cams hit a hard lick. Ever heard a turbo mustang that is cammed? You would never know it untill they stepped on the loud pedal.

now that is the way i think, and you cant change it, its just one of those things that dont affect others, no one can do anything about it. But if you would like to try just lmk. (take it how you want to take it.)
I still say your opinion is fuking retarded. Take that how you want to take it

ok now Mr i know everything
name TWO american cars that were built by Americans and in America that are even recognize to do good in turns, and did outstanding in a slalom test other than the CORVETTE. so check your self and dont let others cause it just makes you look bad.

I am defending my own arguement, therefore, the only nuts I would be able to ride are my own...I said MY car (Cobra) comes with 275 tires stock. You might think 295s are "big ass tires" because you are used to seeing those little bicycle tires on your weak ass honda. The fuking roll cage is tucked and like I said before:

If you pulled up next to it at a stoplight, you wouldnt be able to spot it by the time you your ass waxed...

#1 First of all calm down, it's a car forum, you bring up something people disagree with then we discuss.

#2 This is your exact post.



name TWO american cars that were built by Americans and in America
i only talk when i am confident on what i am saying.

To me that means a car built in the US. You never said racing cars had nothing to do with it.

Your comments.



2. 1964-1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe <----they sold this to the public too right.

If you could prove to Shelby that you could be competitive with the car, he would have. To add to that, after he was given the task of the 1966 MKii GT40 project, the 6 original Daytonas were just let to sit and if you wanted one....they WOULD SELL IT TO YOU!



3. 1967 Ford GT40 MKIV (Carrol Shelby's 100% American GT40)<---they sold that to the public also .

75% of GT40 were given to privateers and had factory for parts. STREET LEGAL!



4.1970 Plymouth AAR Cuda <----- i'll love to see this do a slalom test at over 50 mph.

You are really gonna compare a car from 1970 to one from today? Because yes, in 1970 this car would compare well with a European or Japanese car.



5. 1970 Dodge T/A Challanger <------i'll love to see this do a slalom test at over 50 mph.

Same as above



6. All of Jim Hall's Chaparral cars Jim Hall's those are all over buford highway right, they sold this to the public too right.[quote]

Granted Jim Hall didn't sell these but still, American Engineering that won in Europe.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpEaMr4Yq48
they talk about the handling all through this video

I have never been a fan of the ZB Viper. But Jeremy Clarkson is not the best source for an opinion. Remember he said the McLaren F1 is one of the worst cars he's driven.

But the 1992-2002
SR was one of the best Handling American cars of all time. With Oreca and Zakspeed the car took wins class wins in the Sebring 12 and Le Mans 24 and overall wins in the Daytona 24 and Nurburgring 24 hour.

Plus both vipers pull sub 1.00G in a skidpad....there are racecars that cant do that.



14. Ford Mustand FR500C <---- never heard of a ford mustand i dont think that option came stock either.

Thats a Customer race program so yeah....its stock.



15. Saleen Mustang SR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NZpS_gndDE


Saleen SR was made in the mid 90's and is based on a SN-95 platform so a 05+ Mustang doesn't relate.



19. Shadow Racing Cars <----- i see these all the time in the streets

:eek: you mean the 123hp base model 1970's (69-71') 911T. They were quite possibly the most off ballanced 911 to date...they handle like a shopping cart. Now if you really wanna use an early 70's porsche as a good example. The 914/6 would have been a much better or even the 908 or 917 (since we're using race cars as example as well) :D
