sjacksin i guess that Nissan just designed it that way :) It seems to work though....

Before i do anything more to the engine of the Maxi Micra i want to source out some details . Any engines performance characteristics can be altered via changing the timing of the camshafts set in perspective of their position in relations to the crankshafts position at all times. Move ...

If the vehicle is not loaded to hard and have problems like wrongly set ignition , faulty spark plugs etc then a avg of 16:1 afr can be ran in almost any vehicle. Yes , you could say that in your second question that i was "loosing " power while i was gaining power. That is because the...

@alexzaki There will be magic moments in any engine regarding AFR. some engine react different then others of where the best afr throughout the entire rpm range is to be found. Micras will perform all day long in the 15:1 range in everyday driving and on power demand situations. They will...

Now i have played with the adjustable fuel pressure regulator. Went from the iron-fist controlled o2 censor area of 15,5 :1 to aboutly 13,5-14 :1 just by a twist of the fuel pressure regulator screw. This is what I ended up with as a nice compromise of power / Nm without any drawbacks (...

It took me some time with other N20 systems i had on other cars & Mc `s to sort out all the bugs that you can encounter using the laughtergas :) Once i managed to split both a gearbox and a engine block in half on an old Sunbeam Avenger that got shock treatment from N20 many many years ago...

Eire Have never run into a problem like this on any of the more than 15 Micras i have done it to. what model car / engine ?

There is no sponsors on the N20 system , its all me and myself in a wet dream :) N20 is a wonderful way of having fun as long as you know the consequences if you play to loud---ha-ha. Will show you all the details of a complete set up AND the results of using it. Have got some luck on...

Then a little bit more has happened to the Maxi Micra project. Some more details for the engine division : On the Micro Micra project we got rid of the OEM , non adjustable , fuel pressure regulator and replaced it with this little hose adapter : Have done the same to the Maxi Micra...

All of the changes done to the Micro Micra can be done to an automatic car. There wouldnt be to many reasons not to be able to :)

@Turbokonge Welcome to MSC ! Nice to see another Micra enthusiast from my region :) Yours Micra is very close to other 1,3`s measued on Dynapacks regarding power numbers. They all range from poor 47-48 to some 52-54 Hp on the hubs. Nice thing is that one will quite easy climb higher...

Low rider : After having worked with and have had exsperience with multiple measuring devices ( read ; Dynos ) i know one thing for sure : There is not one Dyno like another and there never will be ! Use a dyno , whatever your preference , as a reference for your working progress , and...

Frank : The midrange increase is due to the spacer and the conservative position on the oem camgears as is + the ex-manifold working with the std ex-system. I have managed at this level to squezze 105 Nm ( at flywheel ) out of it by fiddling with FP ( fuel pressure ) and ignition. Thaks...

Running the diy spacer , ex-manifold and modified throttle body on the Dynapack is finished. Here is the numbers before these “ add-ons “ : 51, 1 Hp / 5370 rpm ( hub ) 79,4 Nm / 2850 rpm ( at flywheel) Here is what it was after : 60,9 Hp / 5737 rpm ( hub ) 98.1 Nm / 3559 rpm (...

Great stuff guys ! Always fun to see participation from other Micra fans. The results will be posted a little bit later today if i just have a moment of time :)

On behalf of the project i say thank YOU all for looking and comments. Makes it even more enjoyable to be a enthusiast. there is no tacho by the way in the car so have no vids of that im afraid :)

Now it is time for some more digging into the engine room. I wanted to try something from the Micro Micra project together with the newly made Aluminum spacer. Many has asked me how much the ex-manifold , spacer and modified thriottle would add to the 1,3 liter engine as compared to what it...

Insane ; i have power washed more than 20 Micras engine baysin this way : using a high pressure poweer washer with some degreaser first and NEVER had any problem whatsoever. Yes you can spend hours with other methods , covering up the dizzy and god knows what but a 100 % sucess...

Here is a short clip of the MAxi Micra`s first Autoslalom attempt where you can see the car from both outside & inside : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4OPekdkP7E Enjoy :)

Thanks for looking. :) Just trying the make the best out of the little i got. This might look impressive but is actually quite straight forward machining and mechanics. Have always enjoyed making my own parts and trying out new tecniques on all forms off aereas as a enthusiast with cars...
