Where did you get the 2mm head gasket?
I'm still searching for thicker head gasket.

"home brew alright. makes mad power but.

Car cost me 800 and the work cost me another 1200... that includes the exhaust, the respray.. and mapping

Its scruffy in the engine bay but outside it looks the buisness and has SERIOUS performance.. Cant complain for 2k..

Looking at what SOME people have spent on theirs.. WOW..

lol

no mate.. lol..

yer sure.. ive just recently decided on a New block for the summer racing season.. this will give me a chance to tidy up the engine bay and make it look all spick and span..

The current block although 69k is getting rattly ( Its had a hard 1bar life! ) and theres a long run HG problem that I finally want to sort out.. so the cars off the road atm, while I source a Sub 30k block and rebuild it..

I can finally have the car running how I want it and completly rattle free!!.. lol..

Should be sorted in a week or two buddy.

niiiiiceeee.... i like the way the torque figure is similar too the BHP figure... sign of a well set up tune i wreckon... i hate high bhp low torque cars.... IE honda's.... piss poor engineering... but too much show for my taste but still a damn good looking car... i like the sleeper look

about 110 to 115 I would guess at....

Modifying the CG10DE is just not worth it.. The results from the CG13DE are much greater for the modifications..

Concidering the 1.0 can EASILY be replaced with the 1.3 as they are a direct fit.. its in your greater interest to replace your 1.0 with a 1.3 before ANY mods

However.. any EXTERNAL mods to the engine WILL work if you later replace your 1.0 with a 1.3, as they are the SAME EXTERNALLY..

excuse my ignorance (micra newbie) but where did the headlights and bonnet come from? are they custom made or did you order it from somewhere?

The headlights are standard items that ive customised and the bonnet is a standard one that ive customised..

What gives the headlights that particular crystal-blue/black look. Is that they have been taken apart and sprayed black inside everywhere bar the main Headlight reflector, also they have been fitted with Those ICE white blubs that have a blue color to the bulb when the lights are off..

When the lights are on they are just a brilliant white.

Also the headlights were bought BRAND new before the modifications so the front glass lenses are Perfectly clean and clear...

Micra headlights after about 3/4 years start to look duller and duller... so a bit crap..

hope this helps

no, the yellow one was stripped and the wide arches are now fitted to my 2.0turbo micra..

This car was originally a 1.3lx Maroon color. Ive done every bit of bodywork modifications myself and got a mate in Oldam to spray it for me... I did all the prepping and stripping to keep the costs down.

With the deep dish alloys, subtle body mods and gloss white paint, it looks perfect for a small jap rocket..
