Also as the angle changes it gets pritty close to antiroll bar iirc think mine just about catches something at some points which is another reason id go a little less. As I say it is working though. Also ive never driven with short shift so the throw might be normal but just getting used to it :)

http://www.micra.com.au/technical-articles/shortshift.php Think this is the one you mean? I follewed this but I think if I did again I would do 60/20 or 65/25. It works but it is very short throw, also make sure the welding good as its harder work for it and I need to redo the top one lol, made...

Some pics :)

Got all the silcone hoses on except for the 25mm ones as they were a bit off a pain and the leak defo weren't them ones. Then I let it warm up for 10mins while checking for leaks noises etc, few niggles might nerd to adjust belt tensions a little, brake need rebleeding, they work but bit...

Ok well not quite got to the pics and vid yet but I got it to run today so should be able to get more little bits done tommorow :) Had a few different issues, figured it werent starting due to spark, I had already doubted myself when connecting the fuel feed/return so iswapped that first, no...

Good news, :) its alive :D Well ish. :p got it to start and it ticked over nicely then sprung a leak. But it started so im happy :) its only coolant leak so will go round and swap them all one at a time for silcone ones which should fix it:) then continue with the lists :)

Cheers frank, bent the contact in the cap inwards a bit more and then pluged it into car and put ab old spark plug in and old lead with jump lead to batt neg and turned it by hand, with the 2pin unplugged heard all 4 injectors click and when I plugged it in heard another 4 click and 1 of them...

Just swapped em, think they were wrong. Dizzy is green/black and white/green, coolant temp is red and black wires? Still no luck though:(

Got round to trying to start it and not having aby joy yet. Anyone wanna fire some suggestion for me? Im fairly certain its somat to do with spark as compresion is between 125-140 psi, plugs were a little wet and smell like fuel. New leads and new plugs in. Gave some fuses a wiggle. Get the...

Quick update I got most of the stuff done now. Brakes are done just need to fill bleed and check for leaks and test. Need to make a bung to block speedo drive until I get a new one. And need to do a few odd bit like adjust clutch pedal and give it all a clean and tidy, sort out what ill take...

Issue sorted. Found the bolt that goes through the rear engine mount and the support and the block goes on the other end through the rubber behind the gearstick. Knew id kick myself when I got it :p

Took pass side wheel off, took strut bolt out, took driveshaft and batt tray out and managed to split it on engine, took the idler and gears out and got enough wiggle room on the diff to get the drive out. Got it all back together and it seems to be ok and working, just need to make a bung for...

Anyone know where I can get a new one cheapish, will ring nissan when I have money or does any one have a spare from a knackered gearbox? Need one for preface box as theres nothing left on top since I went at it :( did eventually get it free but the wring way as its now inside the gearbox :(...

Couldn't see anything to bolt it too unless ive missed a little bracket or something

Good to know it not vital. Am I right about bolting it to the side of the rear engine mount through the rubber/alloy bush?

Pic of the block, just gave it a wire bush on end and dont look snapped but got it in my head that im gonna weld a bolt with the head cut off on tommorow :)

Think ive figured it out, only way I can see it being is if the bolt has snapped when I took it off and that it should have gone through the link and the middle of the rubber of the engine mount doubling as the bolt for the engine mount. Ill take a pic when I go back out.

Probly kick myself when I fi d out how but im fine doing the selector rod and putting the support to the gaiter but where the heck does that metal block with the m10( I think stud) go? Bit stuck with it atm :/

Parts of it are shiny still :p but it could do with a quick flash over when its finished. Hopefully most of the grease should wipe off. Although the black handprints on the matt white could be fun :p, needs flatting anyway lol

So at this point in the pics im basically ready for refiting the engine. I rly should have done the brake lines first but oh well I know now lol :p not got much to do now to be on the road my lust has now got down to : Rear brake lines Gear linkages and gearstick Adjust clutch cable Fill...
