ive got a starter motor and shift cable for one of these if you want them lol

About time I updated this thread! Well when I was away the sierra got nicked so had to press the micra into service. Unsiezed the caliper sliders, fixed a fuel leak on the carbs and fitted some new front brake pads and off to test she went. 11months after she was last on the road. Just before...

fitted some HID's tonight:

if this doesnt go through ill give you £80 for the exhaust manifold :grinning:

where abouts are you based?

ive got a reground cam here for £50 if you want it

if someone wants to take mine for MOT, insure it and tax it, you can take mine lol

Also no need for airfilters, but stick the standard (or get some new ones) trumpets back on. IIRC the longer they are, the better the torque is low down and shorter they are, the better torque at the top end. They also make them sound nicer too :D

If these are cbr600 carbs there should be a remote idle adjustment, make sure thats turned down as it sounds like the the idle screw is holding the butterflys way too open. Opening the choke means that your flooding the engine and the rev's drop from it. (if im reading what youve put correctly.)...

get some 165/55/14 tyres on them wheels! would look awsome

looking good matey. I thought you wasnt mechanically minded? lol

Dont know tbh haha. Just thought it would be the easiest way to connect 4 vac pipes to 2 pipes of different sizes.

Heres the manifold block I made, 4 pipes, 1 to each cylinder, 1 small pipe to the vac advanced and then behind my hand, the large pipe to the brake servo

dunno how detrimental it would be, but it would un balance the cylinders and there would only be a vacuum to the vac advanced and brake servo a 1/4 of the time (theres no vacuum when the inlet valve is shut, so need the vacuum created by the other cylinders, if im right? lol)

whs

wow!!! been so long since I last updated!!! But to be honest, Other than fixing the head gasket ages back I've neglected it! Been concentrating on the sierra and this has sat on the drive. Runs out of test at the end of the month too. But anyway, decided to pull my finger out of my and get it...

If the tightening procedure includes degrees as well as a torque figure then theyre strech bolts. but if its just a tightening torque then non strech and reusable.

also this is how you fit the front: http://www.micra.org.uk/threads/41746-other-cars-suspension?p=434106&viewfull=1#post434106

this thread makes me LOL!!! Christ soo much scaremongering. Ive given my micra rage around a track with the top bolt hole slotted like that. And im on my 5th car (4th with coilsprings) and ive never needed to use spring compressors! micra's are a piece of #### to remove the spring. undo top nut...
