I've read the Speeduino manual and seriously thought about it but I like my MAF and since you don't have it it will run. I bet you can tune it yourself. What you will want to know is what lambda (λ) is and you will find the knowledge on the internet on how to program for a Nissan. I recommend to...

From a k10 to a Sr20? I think it will be more fun indeed. Please share the welding. Sr20's are always the solution ain't they? :D

I've put the Speeduino idea on the back burner. It's a good project but it fails to recognize mass airflow sensors. I can imagine it isn't very easy to support that because no-one tells you what voltage means what load you have there. I also couldn't figure it out. MAF sensors are the best...

Changing out a rear engine mount is easy, I shouldn't be so worried about that beforehand. Here is some proof :)

So you suggest if all else fails or is not an option I consider (like the hoses below the intake) I should take my chances with a common worm clamp? I think I follow this up and now I remember I do have a lower radiator hose with a common worm clamp and that hose wasn't replaced. I'll check it...

Ah I see. I was confused because by o ring I thought you meant the seal that prevents the axle that turns the water pump paddle wheel. But I also thought about this Nissan™ ring that works quite well but not at the point where the bolt seats and certainly not for 25 year old cars. Yes it leaked...

I have no clue what o ring or steel pipe behind the water pump? Now I would like to learn frank, you tell me swapping a water pump for a new one might end up in still leaking? Or is it so that a new water pump has the o ring and steel pipe?

Thank you frank. I will do this tomorrow. By removing the engine side motor mount I gained some confidence in engine raising and tilting and all those bolts have plenty of wiggle room and I missed that if my jack can jack up the car, jacking the engine is nothing to worry about. The waterpump...

Ah yes. I attempted with my phone but noise cancelling maybe or just a bad phone, won't record it audible. I'm about to replace rear engine mount which is to be expected orginal and 150k miles on it. It just amazes me I did not find traces of scratching surfaces and sure thing one of them isn't...

Okay, I watched the youtube and never knew Miata's are RWD but that isn't really the same is it? :P And frank, so you advise me to put the jack under the gearbox and then I can remove the cross member?

Hi there, I'm about to replace my rear engine mount but I never did this before. I have no second man for assistance but I do have a decent garage jack, air tools and two Nissan spare tire replacement jacks and since I will work on the floor I will need to use my four jack stands for raising the...

Yeah!

Since I bought my Micra it made a hr hr hr noise rather loudly when in reverse and lightly sporty. I can not find any marks on engine or chassis. Mileage is 150k, are there know causes?

Comparing spark plug colour should tell you (roughly) about injector performance. I think that four nice looking plugs will ensure you it is not fuel related.

I decided to take my chances with that white non sticking tape in a red case for my sump. I do happen to have a rightside worn engine mount and just the bolts on that side are unscrewing :/

Wow, I learned via rockauto.com that a random brand plug can be $1 each but NGK, no. If you happen to have more cheap places UK based that do ship EU I would love to hear. Most of my surfing is in English but searching co.uk does not work aswell .com and I honestly don't know how come.

Which Loctite do you recommend me for general use?

Which bulbs do you have there? My first generation k11 seems to have no bulbs at all, any chance to get this working or is it a no no?

Well I have a Ga16DE in there and for a Cg13DE cap and rotor are quite different. I posted about Blue Print since I have good experience and that I can tell their rotor holds the same material, though by exclusion, all other aftermarket rotors are metal and this one just looks the same as Nissan...

That stuff the Nissan rotor is made of makes a notable difference in spark power and performing good over great length of times. But a shorter rotor and a cap with burned away connector points will hurt performance and mileage.
