As someone in engineering, you wouldn't go far wrong with trying to get engineering technician / apprentice draftsman kind of roles, if you've a basic understanding of CAD you should be OK to get a foot in the door. Push on CAD CAM experience, lathe work etc. Don't flat out lie, but you can...

End of a 10 year + era for me... Cars gone, sold a little while ago. No time to compete currently with work and no where to store the car and trailer at my house. Only car I've ever owned for more than a year I think! Did me well, hopefully it's new owners enjoy it just as much. Sent from...

Beleive it is still slowly being put together, no massive progress though. Search H701 on Facebook and you'll find a page about it. Sent from my SM-G991B using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Glad to see it's coming back together after a bit of a nightmare! Looking tidy Sent from my SM-G991B using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Google Matt Humphries and email him for a price list, it's called a GRP A Airbox :) Sent from my SM-G991B using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Sooooo... Entry in for a rally on 2nd May, only on reserves list so far but getting the car sorted anyway. This is the first event I've done since Dec 2018' at Rockingham (before that track closed). New seats (old ones were 'out of date' for racing), oil and filter, cleaning and oiling the air...

I spent ages chasing a clonk under acell/breaking... Found it to be the back of the central engine support brace where it mounts to the chassis (kind of under the gear stick). Drove me mad! Sent from my SM-G991B using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Yeah been and looked through and compared ratios, hence my thoughts on 1st etc looking a bit short! Ta for the idea anyway :) Sent from my CLT-L09 using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Yeah I've looked through the top speeds in ear gear, considering wheel size and rev limit etc first is just so short it'd only ever be used for launches - not a bad thing I suppose. The dog ratios look perfect from Hockley, but the box costs the same as my car... [emoji848][emoji23] Sent...

Thanks :) Are you running a coilpack (00+) or 98-00 gear set? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Micra Sports Club mobile app

You can reverse the standard ratchet it you're clever, can't remember how I did it and have no photos however... I now push the button in to lock the handbrake on, but if the button isn't touched then the handbrake ratchet won't engage / the handbrake is 'fly-off' Sent from my CLT-L09 using...

People running 5.1 CWPs, how do you find first gear and the gap between 3-4, 4-5? Looking at the ratios etc it seems like first is rather short, and then there's still a fair gap between the higher gears (especially in a coilpack gbox). Just looking for some advice on if its worth it, or if I...

End result actually looks better than I expected! If I was building a fancy high spec car, I'd have paid the money, however for the £30 I paid it looks OK :) Sent from my CLT-L09 using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Ordered a home "dash flocking kit" to try and tidy up the interior of the car a bit - was aware it would probably end up patchy and if it did, I'd get the spare dash sent off to be flocked professionally. Home kit is £35 and professional is £100-150 so I figured if I did a job that looked half...

Enjoy the trackday, we'll have to get out on another soon, been a few years..! Sent from my CLT-L09 using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Having messed around with windscreens a few times when cars have been rolled on races, it really really sucks.... I'd fill the gap with tiger seal for the trackday, then look at trying to fix it yourself after / get someone in if your fix doesn't work - be annoying to miss the trackday if...

Been tinkering with the car these last few days as I've finallt submitted my university dissertation on manufacturing process optimisation and control... A truly riveting topic once you get into it, promise...! I want new springs as a mininum for the car, but having no money at the moment is a...

You need 100nx carriers, not micra carriers. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Micra Sports Club mobile app

Had a very rainy trackday a few weeks ago now at Oulton Park. Drove without issue considering I dragged it out of hibernation with only an oil change...! Brakes were a bit numb, potentially wants fresh fluid and the pads given a bit of a scrub or replaced. Always amusing keeping up with Type...
