I've jus passed my mot for this year with current non-exhaust lol,
love thy neighbour (who can ignore a little thing like that)

 

[h701micra]

Best thing about old cars ... they get away with a fair bit

So going by this, there's no reason why I couldn't

Under bonnet temps be much of a problem?


I'm only suggesting doing this as I don't wanna build a whole exhaust, and can't go out the side as I like the car as low as it is

 

[frank]

So going by this, there's no reason why I couldn't

" a part of the system missing"
"
the noise emitted from the vehicle is clearly unreasonably above the level expected from a similar vehicle with a silencer in average condition"
dunno neil

 

[pork]

Something like this lol......

 

[padraicR]

Well that would certainly be different

 

[drand]

I saw an S14 once with a 4" poor coming out the front wing... If he got away with that then you should be ok.

Yeah, something like that'll do

I was maybe thinking of having a bike style can out the front

 

[Enuo]

A bike silencer each side?

 

[pork]

Jus the one will do

Anyway of testing my rev gauge? Seems to have stopped working, all wires in place still

Exact same thing happened to mine !!! Then after a while it stopped working altogether , the background lights come on but needle never moves now , checked the wires so many times

 

[pork]

Yup that's the same, lights are on but nobody's home

 

[padraicR]

Yup that's the same, lights are on but nobody's home

Well the only thing i was suspicious of , was if the positive wire can somehow be collecting interference if its sharing power source , ? I know it would more likely be the earth but mine is not interfering there ,

 

[pork]

Had been working fine for ages, nothing's been changed........cheap crap

 

[padraicR]

Thats what im thinking too cuz mine was working for ages aswell :/ such a simple thing how can they f*ck it up so bad ?

 

[pork]

Started on exhaust today, jus mocked up with left over parts for now, ginna do a complete system, with silencer and decent back box, try and turn the chavtastic noise down

 

[pork]

Can someone take a pic of how the original k10 exhaust goes over the axle?

Pleeeaaaassseee!

Few pics on post 49 bud http://www.micra.org.uk/threads/dattosan-machi-aka-project-nipper.38241/

 

[pork]

Oh yeah

 

[pork]

Not much on there after a look,

Jus need a quick pic of how it sweeps round the axle

Shoulda kept old system, doH!!!

 

[h701micra]

Will a picture of the old system help?
I can do both on and off car

 

[pork]

Yeah, all I can find is drawings of the old system

Ut like I said, really could do with seeing how it actually goes round the axke

 

[pork]

If you don't mind

 

[h701micra]

I get you on car pics then
Dark but I'll do me best

 

[pork]

[h701micra]

No worries buddy

 

[padraicR]

Nice job so far neil!!
Neil actually gonna have an exhaust , this will be strange

 

[pork]

Got myself a decent hub as bearing in mine is trashed

Also came across one off. These

Think it's from a rover , looks pretty close to the micra ports

May jus get it to see if I can make another manifold

@frank, reckon that be a close match to a K11 mani ports/ or too big?

 

[karlj]

iirc bias used a k series manifold on his cg converted k10

 

[frank]

@frank, reckon that be a close match to a K11 mani ports/ or too big?

a little wider spaced, and crudely crushed at the collector imo MM, i think aftermarket 8v saxo/106 would be far easier to adapt personally

 

[pork]

Only a fiver

Give me somthing it play with

 

[l_jonez]

The other style manifold like I used would be a better option in my opinion.

 

[pork]

Which ones that mate?

 

[jamier2007]

I'm currently making a turbo manifold off a Honda. Ports are close, I'll put some pics up later

 

[pork]

There's nothing wrong with my steam pipe fittings made manifold I made

But there's always improvements that can be made, thought if I chopped the cat part off and stuck on t2 flange , it'll be a tidy nanifold

 

[h701micra]

Try a polo manifold
Port design is close

 

[Stani1029]

80mm centres across all ports if i remember correctly

 

[l_jonez]

Which ones that mate?

This style

Probably more suitable for na but I'd imagine it be pretty simple to change the flange for a turbo but it might be a bit to low down and cause clearance problems?
