    Unusual distributor??

    Yup - the guy doing it has built many many competition cars to MSA/FIA spec, so I know it'll be good. Cheers Jools

    She won't start....

    OK, I replaced the engine temperature sensor, and EVENTUALLY got her to start. Ran as rough as .......... a rough thing. After a 5 mile run? Sweet as anything. All sorted. Cheers Jools

    Strut brace fitted, pipercross fitted, unfitted, fitted, unfitted.......... etc while trying to diagnose starting problem. I've got her started now, but she's running like a pig. Hopefully she'll start again after I've had a coffee!!

    She won't start....

    Here's one for you all - car was running fine. We replaced the steering wheel and put a pipercross air filter on. Now it won't start. The first diagnosis was immobiliser transducer ring, so a new ECU without NATS was obtained from Ed. Still no joy, although it sounded more like it was trying to...

    The pallet that delivered our cage, seats, runners, suspension, exhaust, harnesses etc only weighed 106kg. By the time the stock suspension & seats are removed, what weight is that? I'm going to try to find a weighbridge soon. Cheers Jools

    New to micra, building rally car.

    Yes, that may be the easiest way. I just like making things neat! All the airbag kit is out now. Stopping the warning lamp coming on was fun, as it turns out we have a lovely mogrel of a car. Pre-coilpack engine, facelift body, and 2000+ wiring loom! Finally traced the correct wire, and shorting...

    Hi Daniel Thanks for the info. I've had a quick look at your 'parts for sale' list but am confused! Is the pipercross still available as well as the momo? What model is the momo? Cheers Jools

    New to micra, building rally car.

    Hi folks As the title says, I'm new to micras and trying to build a rally car (based on the junior 1000 spec). The car is a 1.0 K11 registered in 2000, but has a facelift but no coil pack engine. I'm looking at the moment for advice in 2 areas. 1) Airbags: If I disconnect the airbag ecu...
