not mph is it? man, i wouldn't dream of going that fast in my micra lmao 90mph is definately my limit... if i had wings on it, it would probably lift off the ground lol

I'm gunna get my friend to check out all my bushings when he changes my two front struts *excited* and if they need to be redone then hell, i'll get it done at the same time... as i said before i'll post here whether i can break 80mph without my front end shimmying a foot lol... twould be nice...

that would make sense... if the car were to have no torque at ALL you basically would be better of riding a bike lol where are you finding these trannies btw.. are you calling wreckers, or is there like a used micra store in Canada lol

MUCH less efficient than standard transmission... the torque converter consumes energy rather than manual where it's just a clutch plate that transfers energy straight from the engine to the wheels... but hey... i got a k10 ma12 stick-shift and i live in canada :slm: I'm the only one that i...

I know this is off topic, but damn...i gotta stop griping about our prices... i heard it was pricey elsewhere, but i never realized it was THAT much of a difference... it might be cheaper to pump it at our pumps and ship it to you lmfao... back on topic... so WOW.. i just discovered that...

ok, so i can just let the tubing sit at the opening... but that damned water.... i need to get something that'll collect it and dispose of it eh? like i would want to put a hole in the bottom but that might rob some of the air... i'm sure i'll rig something up... or perhaps NACA ducts aren't...

i would have 2 filters, one at the opening in the hood and one for the carb... the only problem is, what if wanna open the hood lol... the hood swings towards the front, which would ruin my tubing...i guess some sort of mechanism to seperate the tubing from the hood eh? the other concern i have...

it's GOTTA be a bushing then... as to which one it is, is a matter of you finding it i guess :(

jack the ass-end up and try and rotate the wheel with your hands (while the hand-brake is off) if it's hard/impossible to turn you gotta find a way to disable the brakes (i had to snap the cable and push it back through) my back right brake had locked up (without me realizing) and i drove around...

i love wiki for all the info that's on it...but why don't they have the ma12... makes me a sad panda :down: maybe one of the members here should whip up a page for it :upside: or heck, it could even be a team effort eh?

i redline my engine when it's cold, which everyone tells me is bad, but i figure it warms it up quicker lol i haven't noticed anything go wrong in the past 4 months with me doing that... i think the only time you really feel a difference in power is when you go from a stock filter that's full of...

it's not possible to convert to stick-shift eh? (that question's directed to anyone who knows the answer lol) but no, mine's a 3-door hatchback... it WAS a light blue, very weather worn... but i stripped that off and painted it tremclad black... btw, i live in Hamilton... i saw the brown car...

if you have a multimeter, test that there's power flowing through the the power cord from your car to your headunit... if there's a reading, then you've obviously pinpointed that it's the headunit failing. Since it's from the wreckers, take the case off the headunit and look/smell for burning...

I'm a pretty crafty guy, plus I have plenty of tools and goodies.... sealing and plumbing wouldn't be a problem... the only problem would be creating the the scoop in the hood... and of course designing it in such a way that I can lift my hood up without ripping it off lol and not only that, I'm...

Hey, I'm from Southern Ontario... I've actually only seen ONE other Micra in my area, and it was brown.. I should've waved the to the guy, honked my horn or something... but I was in too much shock to believe that there was ACTUALLY another Micra owner around my area hahaha Man, it would be cool...

This is just a crazy idea, and i'm not sure if it's been done or not, but has anyone ever created a hood scoop and connected it to the air intake for the carb? would that just be totally insane? or would it give some decent power gains... i've been reading about forced induction and whatnot, and...

mine's like that currently :down: week and a half and i get new ones though, which means rounding corners at 50km/h without the car rolling grr the funny part is, i put my micra through more punishment everyday then what you did in that video haha... i get my baby to spin the wheels in...

like, -15 will be the coldest it'll get... but yea, anywhere from -5 to +5 degrees CELSIUS is expected this time of year. and if it was frozen, wouldn't that prevent it from starting at all?

ok, what if i just want to clean it... is that possible? or do i have to rebuild it... and it looked like replacing the engine took longer than rebuilding! but again, that's inexperience speaking.

yea, i know this isn't great for the clutch, but i've found that if i leave the gas down while shifting and let it slip a bit it prevents the shudder lol.. fortunately the only creak i have is in the front struts and they're getting replaced in a week and a half... and the only rattle i get is...
