do you want to know if you'll be able to lift it yourselves then?Ems said:He's having a 1.3 k11 engine put in his k10 and were picking the engine up on Sat!!!!
me and my brother managed to carry my 1.3 engine and box together, but it was heavy.
hope this answers your question
if i had to guess i'd say 70-80kg, maybe more

Well the suspension on a 1.0 and 1.3L K11 is the same? correct?
The 1.0l K11 engine can't weight much diff to the K10 1.0l
N u being a skinny bloke means u're not putting much extra weight on the suspension as well!!!
I imagine it'll be alright......just working through simple logic!!

Gearbox weighs stuff all. Mabye 20kg at the most without the fluid.
Engine, as far as I understand, with everything on it weighs about 80kg. Yes it'll weigh down ze k10 but it won't be too bad. if the weight distribution is too bad you'll have to take the gearbox off and get your front seat passenger to nurse it. Put the weight over the front.

Not ideal but by some spring assisters just in case?

On topic ollie & nex
Im not buying anything to support the springs etc, we'l get that car back one way or another! Just wanting to know if the front springs currently fitted (Spax) will need to be replaced once the engine goes in.
From what you guys are saying, no changes should be needed.

Ems said:I hope your not implying i'm the fat person that has to get in the back!!!

No wasn't implying that at all, I imagine u way as much as a wheel nut, there's nout of ya!!!
N u got no worries there, he's not my type, he's got the wrong anatomy for the start!!!! LMAO
hang on, so do you want the weight in wheel nuts!?!?
have you checked the haynes? or Cisco's site, i believe he has a page with the specs of the k11, there may be something about the weight... but i think most micra engines weigh the same.
it helps nissan mass produce without having to change things.... go nissan

i dont see why you would need to change anything,
the k10 gearbox is deffinatly heavier than the k11
the k10 engine would be lighter due to being 8 valve and 1ltr
the k11 gearbox is lighter
the k11 engine would be slighty heavier due to 1.3 ltr and twin cam
so it evens its self out and i doubt you will see any difference in handling tbh

Regarding the CG engine being heavier as it's a 1.3 is not true, as it's the same physical size, and exactly the same block as the CG10 but with a longer stroke.
I'd imagine the CG10 and CG13 both weigh near enough the same, and probably lighter than the MA. That's a guess as I'm assuming the MA engine is Cast Iron, where as the CG is alloy.
