    K11 vs Swift GTI

    No i dont just come on a micra forum and start an arguement, I am a paying member unlike yourself and have used this forum for a couple of years now, I have met a number of members and a few are who i would call my friends. I have owned 6 Micras in total and wanted a friendly bit of fun which I...

    K11 vs Swift GTI

    Good to see this discussion is going well, dont quite know why bobsp16 has bought in 106 rallyee's. If it is so easy to tune up a CG13 like a few have said then why has no one done this? maybe the cg13 is a more reliable motor but what would happen if you rev'd a cg13 to 8000rpm every now and...

    K11 vs Swift GTI

    I never said that they would both gain the same, but 25bhp gain which makes a k11 the same power as a swift gti is utter rubbish, the reason why i am challengeing anyone with a K11 1.3 to prove me wrong

    K11 vs Swift GTI

    Swift GTI

    thank you for your insight on the gti Yom, its pretty obvious when i drive the swift that it is a higher performance engine. Ian, i respect that you know more than me about the cg13 but i still dont believe that a micra could leave a gti with the modifications i listed, I am however willing to...

    Swift GTI

    i only compared the swift gti to a k11 1.3 because they are both 1.3 16v. i'm not going to make any comments about a glx because i dont own one and have never driven one. Ian i think that you would have to spend a lot on a k11 1.3 micra to make it as fast as a swift gti, as in cams, 4-2-1 and...

    Swift GTI

    I picked up a M-Reg swift gti with 71k on the clock full service history :-) Mot but no tax for £600. its completly standard and i'm very happy with it, needs a few small jobs doing which i am going to sort over the weekend. i'm on my girlfriends insurance policy so will be driving it, we are...

    1.3 starlet

    i never said that a cg 13 k10 wouldnt beat a 1.3 k11 as the k10 is much lighter and would beat a k11 due to the weight. a 75-90bhp k10, big deal, if its highly modified then thats a differant story and my point is why not start with a much more powerful engine.

    1.3 starlet

    i can imagine a 150bhp sr20 k11 is gonna drive a lot different to a 360bhp k11

    1.3 starlet

    where are you getting 640kg from? and a 15 second quarter in a 1.0 micra? come on mate serious? with a 50 shot of nos? how do you know that a sr20 destroys the handling of a k11? have you driven one or know someone who has one? if not then your just saying in theory it destroys the handling and...

    1.3 starlet

    i've driven a 2.0 redtop nova and it handled pretty well to me, the power in a straight line certainly put a smile on my face and made up for whatever was lost with the handling, and there cast iron unlike the sr20 which is alloy and is much lighter, why do you think there are so many c20 xe...

    1.3 starlet

    yes your right i do underrate the cg13. it is up to arnold on what he wants to do to his k10 and i'm not criticising him but i really dont see the point, why not use a 2.0 16v? or a 1.6 16v? f your going to do the conversion then why not take advantage of the engine power as standard. 2.0 16v is...
