GA16's rare over there? GA15's seem to be really rare, are they quite common in the Dominican Republic?
if AG15 is common because there are Americans here
, I wanted to put the Japanese GA16 but I found it in good conditionGA15 is in the nissan sentra b14

Awesome
gunna be handy info when I get round to sc'ing mine.How you adjusting the valve timing? Pinned cam sprockets like @EBBdude?
Only problem for me is the spark map
bloody motronic lol
Got pics of the doweling mate? Wanna try myself. Yea they can be, just dont like the idea of payin for remaps each time I mod something. Rather make a one time invest in something I can adjust myself + learn in the process. Just not sure what yet.

you only need a 3mm flat dinky, (for unlimited adjustment, ie, you can turn the dowel and use the next tooth)
Sorry pal, can you explain a little more, didnt quite get the turn n use next tooth bit mate

1 tooth is about 20 deg iirc, and you can advance about 10 deg by filing 3mm off, or else advance it 1 full tooth and then retard it instead

there you go then
a 2.5mm flat will suffice
Got a new battery and an original radio from the scrappy, £30 all in.
Just fired it up for the first time since I bought it and it sounds sweet. And by sweet I mean a huge hole in the back box hahaha.

Drove mine back from Bradford, it's particularly wobbly in 4th/5th at around an indicated 30ish, sound about right for a 1.0? It's been like this since I got it nearly a year ago, not enough power I'm guessing?
5th gear at 30 would make slow acceleration, but if it's lumpy when accelerating it could be injectors? I'll let someone else confirm though....

Mines been running similar for a few years now aswell.
Not lumpy, just a bit of a wobble. I think I used to knock into 4th around 30 for town cruising. 3rd's the perfect gear for accelerating around town and maintaining speed in 4th.
Really thinking of getting an Auto on my next Micra, I imagine it'd be a great laugh to drive.

They're great for practicing the gangsta lean.
Haha, yeah! The Mk2 Yaris our family had used to literally drive itself in 5th @ 30mph.
