Yesterday was my 35th and I had a great birthday, I treated myself to a day off work and went and bought myself a birthday present.............. 4.5 hrs work in my local (proper) scrapyard saw me and Jody turn this scrappage scheme Micra into this Meaning that this should soon have...

Cheers Steve, I've been happily running with the blanking plate but I've just insured SWMBO on it to get some driving practise whilst she's learning and it's become apparent that a N/S mirror is going to be essential for the manouevres!

I've just realised that I'm an idiot, not actually pre at all, I forgot that the red one was facelift :blush: So........... Either like this, not internal adjustable: Or like this with internal adjust, this type I'd need the internal panel to go with it though:

As the title says really, anyone got a K10 prefacelift passenger side mirror? As I live down here you'd need to be prepared to post it to me and accept paypal. Here's hoping :grinning:

Cheers frank (Y) From what I can gather the recommended route to CG13 power in a K10 is by using the CG10 gearbox, as this fits the K10 shafts, but................ am I right in thinking that the CG13 'box, whilst heavier is stronger? I may have found myself a T plate K11 to act as a donor...

Do K11 front struts and hubs fit a K10? Anyone done it? If not why not?

Would it be possible to move/extend the hydraulic tensioners to account for the high compression head chain slack? .........and, What I'm wondering about the dizzy is whether I could bin the injection to run one on a carb/carbs and keep the original dizzy running the ignition without having to...

That is awesome, cheers Mark for the heads up, I've just spent the last hour and a half reading through that. (And he was right, I love your style Frank!) So, further questions :blush: Is the CG13 distributor a self contained system or does the ECU run the ignition as well as the fuelling...

Cheers guys, Frank - so what are the differences on the cams? Are the valve and port sizes/shapes on the heads the same then?

Hi, just wondered if anyone can help with a few answers. What're the power outputs for the CG10 and CG13 engines? What are the bore and stroke on them? What are the compression ratios on them? Are the heads interchangeable and are there any power gains to be had from bits swapping? Any...

Micra-mum - good to speak to you and your husband at retro-show and thanks for the pictures. After a bit of track action at RetroRidesGathering............... .........it had become apparent that the rack was moving about on it's mounts, which could well account for why the steering felt a...

Yep, 12 point 12mm, get the best one you can afford as the middle 3 bolts on the front stick out of the block at the bottom and can be very, very tight.

I'd say that they're ######ed. Possible reasons: Ignition has been left on for quite a while with the engine not running Condenser knackered Ballast resistor knackered (supplying 12v to the points when it's running) I'd check the ballast resistor first, just to eliminate it, put a multimeter...

You have pm ;)

You're gonna need the coil and module off an electronic distributor Micra too,

1 - Yellow glass paint off ebizzle 2 - Not modified????!!! JAE stands for Japanese Auto Extravaganza does it not? Yours is; a) Japanese and b) An automobile therefore I say DO IT! Take it there, have fun, see loads of great cars, take loads of pictures and...

Firstly a huge thanks to imp124 for coming up trumps with a cure for how the front of car looks(Y) As promised steve, Got home from work on Friday to a parcel containing a prefacelift grille and some other bits and bobs. Saturday, I took the front bumper off to sort out my rounded out...

Definitely the ballast resistor, my old Micra did exactly the same thing. I got a replacement one from the local starter/alternator re-con place, motor factors might not have one for a K10 but a ballast is a ballast, look at one they've got in stock, if the connections are the same type you're...

Have a trawl through this, I took pictures specifically to answer this very question. HTH

That's my old one :grinning::grinning: Glad you all like it, here's another pic 3 inch drop and renault 19 steelies Unfortunately those are the only two photos I've got of it. Always loved the more-door shape :grinning:
