It will not die. I have carted this thing all over Asia for years...

    P-plate laws

    My first car was an MG TF 1500. How much would it be worth today if in good condition? Man what a handful to drive.Still taught me how to drive.Used to burn off Triumphs.

    P-plate laws

    Burnie, Tasmania to Perth W.A.in a Micra. No worries. Gee I can remember being 17 and fast and furious. Only diff with me is that I joined a car club. (sorry Mike it was the MG car club)and learnt how to drive via sprints, hill climbs etc.It was the best education I had and taught me how to...

    Front Seats.

    Yeah well never contemplate the seats from the new Suzuki Swift Sports. They are as hard as. I found after about an hours driving my back was hurting. No decent padding at all.

    Extra injector

    No need. If boost is around 7psi max the existing unit plus a Haltech works fine with a 5 th. injector set up. Standard fuel pump okay. Look at Family Hacks dyno chart and see how the air fuel ratio is spot on right through the rev range.

    The Mighty Daewoo

    Maybe called after that Slim Dusty song? "like to have a beer with Duncan" or maybe "Dunkin Deliciuos" Very strange name to call a car. Still there was a Nissan Cedric. I am sure it would get me across the Nullabour no worries. Can't help yourself. I look at the engine bay and think how it would...

    The Mighty Daewoo

    Well here she is guys, ready to pounce on any Micra. The heart of the beast is a 1.5lt SOHC motor made by GMH in Aussie. What a hauler.Bet you are all jealous. Actually it is in good nick. A genuine 130,000 kl on the clock and I will sell it for more than what I paid.Cheap taxi for the next 9 weeks.

    timing chain

    That is low mileage to have a timing chain problem. Was the car serviced on a regular basis by Nissan? If so I would be asking them to come to the party.

    Engine Swap Micra K12

    I will wait till I see it in the flesh. The shape may turn me off completly. Pics okay but nothing like the real thing. Hmmm sounds like the MR18DE may be the way to go In Aussie. Should be a few scrapped Tiidas floating around in a couple of years. Funny I rang Nissan customer service plus...

    Engine Swap Micra K12

    Ever driven a Toyota Yaris? Talk about a lot of dash in front of you with motor under most of it. No way you can touch the front windscreen sitting in the front seats unless your mother was a gorilla ( or father, or both) I am not 100% wrapped in the K12 shape but its growing on me and some of...

    Engine Swap Micra K12

    The Micra is available in some countries with the HR16DE motor, same motor as in Tiida in some countries. In Aussie Tiida comes with the MR18DE. I would assume that this would be a direct fit into a K12. Comments please.

    buyer warning.

    Cyber space!! Yes I buy things off e bay but nothing like dealing direct with a company/ person face to face. That way any hassels you can go eye ball them.Not always possible I know and so far I have had no bad experiences with e bay purchases. Good luck Mike, nothing worse than getting ripped...

    cold air intake for the budget conscious.

    Way to go Mike. With 2 Micras in your garage you will not know which way to turn.Your weekends are now full. Hope you have an understanding other half.Stick a pod filter on the end of the cold air intake and throw away the Micra filter/ filter box.
