The continuing saga of dropping a CG13 into my wife's Figaro! Having made the decision to go with the K10 5-speed box because the mounts and shifter hook up easier I finally found myself a K10 box, only to discover the gears are f***ed, and I mean properly f***ed. Several gear teeth came out...

The K11 gear linkage and stabiliser bar is about 4" longer than K10, so either way you'll need to cut it down. There's a good blog here of the steps... http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=readersrides&action=display&thread=60267&page=7 I'm doing something similar but in a...

I'm after a CG10 flywheel. Cheers(Y)

Thanks for the advice but I'm going for mpg rather than bhp:grinning:

Oh, okay. That figures! Anyone got a CG10 flywheel for sale???

Thanks again Frank(Y) To clarify- so I've got to use a CG flywheel with the CG13 crank because of the bolt pattern. But why the CG10 flywheel and not the CG13 flywheel?

Thanks for the offer but that's not going to help me out- I'm doing a CG13 Engine into a Figaro and I've got a CG13 box but it's a bit of a pain to modify the rear mount and hook up the shifter. I've found a K10 5 speed and I know they bolt straight in to a Figaro so thought it might be easier...

BTW - why must I use the cg10 flywheel and clutch? Is it the bolt pattern or clearance or what? Thanks!

Thanks Frank(Y) Do I also need the CG10 starter, or will the CG13 starter that I've got be okay? Or do I need the K10 starter?

Hi All, Sorry if this has already been discussed, I have spent an hour trying to search the answer and I can see lots of threads about swapping CG10 and CG13 boxes and others talking about using a CG10 box in a K10. But what I want to know is this- Will a 5 speed gearbox out of a G-reg...

Oh dear God, and you're from Brighton too! We were thinking of starting a car club in Brighton and call ourselves the Brighton Bandits but not enough takers!

How do you accidently discover something like that?:laugh:

Okay, he doesn't stock them but he reckons the best place to get them is Real Steel in Uxbridge. http://www.realsteel.co.uk Blaster 2 coil : £43.62 Ballast resistor 1 : £6.14 Depending on the application you may also need a secondary ballast resistor which is an additional £9.95 The...

Hang on before you buy anything, I'm pretty sure my mate stocks these, I'll get you a price.

I've used MSD ignition products and have found them to be very good (far better than Mallory). However, I've used them on American V8 motors which is what they're designed, not sure about using them on a modern high revving (relative to a lazy V8) jap motor. Having said that, with twice the...

Ha ha, bit excessive just for a gear stick! Hold on though- I can drop the Figaro auto trans in that K10 Micra and sell it on as a complete car:grinning:

Done! Thanks (Y)

I thought you had! I'm not going turbo. The power and torque from the CG13 is the same as the ME10ET (well, according to Wikipedia it is). However, I can see from reading stuff on here there's some blower buffoonery to be had with the CG13, so that may be a later project! Yeh, I've got...

Ha ha! Yes, I called Bridges and they told me they didn't have one. Maybe he doesn't know what a K10 is so gives the default response, 'computer says no':doh:

Thanks(Y)
