[karlj]

Nice

 

[Dougyledds]

I need to do this!

 

[superls]

looking good well done, now get it dyno'd and tell us the power

what have you done to the suspension up front to take the extra weight?

 

[wronek1989]

Did nothing yet

It's lower with this engine about 10mm than with MA12, i have another one to compare to.

I'm making custom strut bar now, to make car a bit rigid. But in the future i ll buy lowered springs and modify shocks.

 

[sr20bud]

very nice mate (Y)

 

[gtsnissanb]

Excellent stuff nice to see someone doing something different for a change

 

[wronek1989]

New wheel fitted:

And new CAI Fujita with a custom strut bar

 

[wronek1989]

On 7-10th June in Poland we had a Nissan Meeting 2012. There was a dyno, 1/4 mile race and track with some corners. Micra did 600 kilometers in 4 days without any breakdown, i am happy about it. I was second in 1,6 class, righ after 130HP Micra K11 with GA16 NVCS.

New photos and dyno shown on the first post, enjoy guys

 

[wronek1989]

I machine polished my Micra

no swirles

 

[Will3]

What car did the driveshafts come from and what gearbox did you use?

How does cornering feel with the GA16DE? its a far heavier engine

EDIT: Read description now about driveshafts

 

[wronek1989]

Ha, better not break while cornering

 

[wronek1989]

Race from Nissan Meeting found on YT in good quality



hope u enjoy

planning many mods during winter, cu soon

 

[wronek1989]

It was a long long winter in Poland. Now when the wheather is ok i can make some progress

I sprayed chassis with Valvoline Bodysafe Wax, closed profiles with Valvoline Tectyl ML.

 

[wronek1989]

Some updates:

Mounted tank (such a difficult job for single person ), brake hoses and fuel pipes.
Yesterday i ve fitted beam tube

 

[MicrAde]

Looking really good mate

 

[Seb_]

Bardzo dobrze!

 

[Noddie]

Looks awesome! Well done! Will be following this

 

[mas12555]

Where did you get the anti roll bar and polly bushes.

 

[wronek1989]

it's stock anti roll bar but sandblasted and painted

pollybushes are dedicated for civic but milled by cnc machine to the right size

Awesome mate, would you be very kind by telling what make bushings and what civic?

 

[wronek1989]

http://www.strongflex.eu/en/081095a-front-wishbone-inner-bush-sport_150.html

i suggest you measure wishbones yourself,
you need 8 polies, 6 of them should be 36,4 (-2mm than civic) 2 are staying 38,4.
if any questions just ask

 

[wronek1989]

Some photos of done rear axle

Added proportioning valve from Corsa C, because I was blocking rear wheels permanently Also mounted braided stainless steel brake lines.

Longer bolts

So let's start with the front Adjustable coilovers from Golf. Need a litle bit fitting. It's used H&R/Bilstein.

Calipers will be sandblasted tommorow

 

[MicrAde]

Very, very nice indeed

 

[wronek1989]

Before 2013 Polish Nissan Meeteing (30May-2June) i finished front and repaired exhaus manifold.

I've mounted adjustable coilovers from Golf mk3, Bilstein + H&R spring, used, bought for 40 pounds, what a bargain .
Modified mounting, wholes moved and adapters welded.

Upper mount modified too:

Mounted braided hoses, painted calipers.

On the meeting I use Michelin Slick, cut like Toyo R888. Alloys were Intra 7x13. ET23 was much to low for K10 to I need to make arches wider Coils are great! I have to change the mounting on the left side because, left is 1 positive while right is 1 negative

1/4 mile

Changing back to normal tires befeore track challenge.

Which one better?

tbc

 

[wronek1989]

i got him back

 

[wronek1989]

guys, micra still running not many times on road beacuse of lack of time but the end of the season was great, all day on race track
hoping for many upgrades next year, especially in the engine

second place in >1600 class

 

[jamieccc]

how did you plumb in your fuel system to go from carb to injection?

 

[wronek1989]

hey mate, everything is in the first post

external pomp from Mercedes W124. or you can use walbro one

 

[Dwarf]

Good work mate what time you go 1/4 mile ?

 

[wronek1989]

like i sad, read first post guys

16,01s on 1/4mile (slicks but bad tarmac)

not really good time but i prefer race track than 1/4

 

[h701micra]

Can I ask why you used the carb camshaft?

 

[wronek1989]

in DS lift is a bit higher than DE, it's easy mod in GA16DE.

 

[h701micra]

Ah I see. I never got round to comparing the two.
I have both engines you see
