    Had some time to do a few things with the car today, in-between stripping layers of 80-year-old paint off a fireplace(!). First off start painting the road wheels ready for new tyres.. Notice cam cover, experiment to see what it looked like painted with a brush. About as good as you'd expect...

    Try some motorsport in your Micra!

    Make sure it's in good roadworthy condition, take out any loose items from the cabin, put an extra few psi in your front tyres, that's it! The great thing about these events is you rock up in your daily car, have a great day and drive home again with a big smile on your face. Anything else you...

    1.0L 16v modifications help?

    True enough, though I suggested it because it's literally a swap and not a conversion. When you can get a 1.4 for the price of a manifold and induction system it comes down to whether you have the time / skill / inclination to do it, in terms of bang for buck it's unbeatable. I'd agree about...

    1.0L 16v modifications help?

    1.4 engine. Plug and play, fast micra. Or sell it and buy a 1.4. induction kits, manifolds, cams etc are fine if that's what you want to do but are just tinkering round the edges really. My 2p.

    Starlet 1.3 engine vs CG13DE

    I can't comment about turbo engines, but I have had a stock 1.3 Starlet and and my current 1.3 Micra. The 4E-FE in the starlet was nice and driveable at the low end but pretty gutless thereafter. The CG13DE in the Micra is almost as torquey low down and better in the mid and high range, so for...

    Please help!? Battery plus red bit :/

    Red bit is definitely supposed to be there. Otherwise sounds reasonable.

    Please help!? Battery plus red bit :/

    Good job on the clamp jk. Like r-reg says you take the wires out the red bit and and them to the new clamp if you need to. As long as you tie the red bit out the way so it's not loose the car should be fine to drive.

    Please help!? Battery plus red bit :/

    On the third picture the wire from the connector under your thumb shows some damage to the insulation, exposing the conductor within. Also, the same black and white connector under your thumb looks to be either the cause, or pretty close to the cause, of the issue. I would Disconnect the...
