Have you tried mating it up to the engine? Most of the times smaller engines are the same block with either a larger/longer/smaller bore and stroke so all ancillaries fit. At a guess I'd say yes it's going to fit unless theres a major engine change at your year. The gasket I wouldn't reuse. Get...

Timing Hi here are some timing figures: Ignition timing/idol rotational speed * idol (BTDºC/rpm): M/T car 15±5/700, A/T car 12±5/900 (18±5/750) Ignition timing/idol rotational speed * initial (ATDºC/rpm): M/T car 2/700, A/T car 2/900 (2/750) Density (％/ppm) of idol CO/HC...

Hub to disc conversions Ok if someones (namely you ) have either Haynes or Autodata and can get the rear axle figures then toddle off to the local scrap yard to see which you can match no doubt it will fit :D I might consider it too as it will make braking actually happen. Last time I rode in a...

Timing Belt When I take delivary of the car I will post a picture so you can tell me it I need the earlier or later belt. So if it's 54k on mileage or 5 years the one I'm rebuilding needs to be done badly (provided it hasn't already been done) Charlotte

Timing belt can you let me know how much you'd want for the belt? The K10 I'm collecting is a 1988 version (not sure if this is early or late) I'm rebuilding it for someone. Thanks Charlotte

disc conversion Hmmmm Do any of the other micras in any range have discs? such as the Turbo ? I have been giving it some thoughts here (my god she thinks!!! yes its better than real work) As far as I see it all is needed is a the back axle of another vehicle which has the same width...

mayo in the oil cap I have to agree, just because you have a bit of white emulsion in the oil cap doesn't necessarily mean a head gasket blow. A good way to definately tell is run the engine, undo the water cap to see if it bubbles or if you have a lot of oil on top. Expect the water to rise...

Timing Chain That's good news, hate changing Chains. 60,000miles so I doubt it's ever had one changed even though it's 19 years old. I got it off an old couple so they might have loved it like a baby. I'll get one and replace it too. Is there a gasket on the cover plate? or does this come...

Removing Cam gasket Hi it is possible (just) you need to remove any wheels from the cam along with any covers see how much clearance you have between the cam and outter circle of the seal . You have two choices without removing the cam of course (which is by far the easier) 1: Get a long...

Hi me again. Where is the best place to buy a new Timing chain or belt for the K10 1.0? When it arrives I'm going to replace it with a new one, ok it's only got 38,000 on the clock which is genuine. 19 years old it's about time for a new one as there is no record of it being replaced in...

Hi I've just aquired a 1988 K10 1.0 GSX in red (seems to be a rare colour according to a few spec sheets on the internet) My question is : Does anyone know of a rear disc conversion to replace the drums to discs? I know the car isn't an Race car but a little more braking on the back would be...
