Looks pretty solid. Plastic polish will make the greys look fresh once again. Is it a 1.0L or a 1.3? I drive a 1.3 and it has decent power for the engine size

That is the micra's distributor or dizzy. Located on the right side of the engine block at the top. Unscrew the plastic cap (3 alan headed screws on mine) and check the terminals inside. If they appear corroded/dirty clean or replace them. Car with fuel injection shouldn't need to be gassed...

As some of you may know I recently replaced my fuel pump as the previous one decided to go on strike. Since then the Micra has developed an annoying but hilarious fault. When the gauge is between the 1/2 and 1/4 mark, if I take a corner to the right hard, the pump draws in air so I have no...

when you start do you touch the gas? This has a tendancy to flood the cylinders making it even harder to start her.

I had engine hesitating on me just before fuel pump went. Does it hesitate on about 1/2 throttle most?

:: UPDATE :: Feeling a bit like a kid at Christmas... she LIVES again :D. Turns out when she was in storage the fuel pump got full of dirt, now as I started using her again all the dirt corroded the pump inners causing it to die. My mechanic also adjusted my low idle while he was at it. Total...

Have you checked the pedal return spring?

Have you actually done this? A friend of mine had an E-ram electreic supercharger on his mr2 and turns out it only acts as a restriction not adding any form of power... even a dyno proved this

What about GA15/GA14s?

I'm thinking of going with white wheels, Might do some black accents inside as to keep it stealth, I'd like to do seats but not too sure what to put in it. What car does the GA16 come from? Is that the Almera 1.6?

My Super S is getting a dead fuel pump sorted at the moment, which means I've got loads of time to plan out future mods :P What I've done up to now is: Removed door strips taped up front fogs for a racer look 'twincam' stickers on the sides 'facebook you like this' sticker on the back window...

Yes I've realized that one has 2 terminals the other has a connector. I've done some research and the 94 Micra should have twin terminals, though not sure. Annoyingly my mechanic didn't give me the pump to actually see what I need to buy :/. Anyway, bought the twin terminal pump today for...

Okay so need some help here guys. The Micra's electric fuel pump looks like a cylinder right? All I'm finding in Malta are mechanical ones (which I'm assuming look very different) http://www.worldcarparts.co.uk/tabid/144/CategoryID/256/ProductID/785/language/en-GB/Default.aspx is THIS the...

I'd go for the K12 or a facelift K11. Anything older is likely to need a bit of work by now. Find a low mileage one, hunt for rust around the front crossmember if its a k11, and avoid anything that isn't a sewing machine on idle. also make sure that it runs well with no flat spots in the rev...

Primer grey then stencil on something similar to this in navy blue on the doors :p http://i1.cpcache.com/product/292825194/ww2_aircraft_marking_t.jpg?height=380&width=380

Welcome Chris!. First on the list I'd say are a good service and a decent exhaust to let the neighbours know your'e doing up your micra :p

Looks good, silver goes well with the interior, keeps it looking fresh :)

:: UPDATE :: Electrician had a bit of a play with the fuel pump. it has power going to it but doesn't make a sound, no pressure in the fuel lines. I'm assuming it has to be the trouble

Thanks frank, Ill check that as well :)

Skinner read my mind, yes I am replacing :)
