    Engine weight

    Either way they're not heavy :p lugged mine from the car, into the house and upstairs into my room with the flywheel still on by myself. Even complete assembly with ancillaries, gearbox and lower crossmember is only a 2 man job tried and tested :). Though I thought the cg was nearer 50kg until now

    No I doubt I'll be running off just yet :). And yeah I was in for a month but an old back injury flared up and it turns out it never actually healed right so it'll need a fair bit of doctoring to get it fixed.

Just don't have the money to fix it all since...

    Volkswagen Polo

    Yeah, that paint job! Lol serious fun to be had making it look presentable. Like I said plans for possible rat styling and a Snazzy roof cage have been considered.

    what did you do to your micra today ?
