Nissan Micra k11(s) Number six goes to a new home - staying in the oldschool family!

[Nominal]

Rules are made to be broken.

Superturbo doesn't sound like something built for following the rules...

Go on @yoeddynz, you know you want to.

No need to rescue the whole thing - surely all the super turbo parts would fit in a shoebox for easy postage ?

@oldrx7  Fuck - I'd love to rescue a rusty superturbo but I had said to myself and hannah no more rusty cars.

But super turbo!!!

Doesn't matter that it's rusty does it? Purely an engine donor for the yellow mobile + maybe some other limited edition turbo model stuff none of us know about? 

You've already got the donor LSD, you've gotta get the donor turbo.

Its not a car, its a box to keep the engine safe until you need it

[tortron]

its a front cut (everything in front of the tow ball)

[ajg193]

Just do it.

Agreed. Hurry up and commit @yoeddynz so I can stop thinking about it

[yoeddynz]

We've not even heard from the man @Early jap nuter whether he wants rid of it.

All these little micras and other temptations and I still have a goldwing engine to finish!

[Early jap nuter]

I’m not heading up to my place up north for afew weeks.ill she how stuffed she is and let you know.the rear hatch fell off last time I drove it so I put it in the barn and forgot about it

[yoeddynz]

So obviously its rego on hold, is 99% all there and just needs a wiper blade for a wof but you're too busy to fit it so your loss is the buyers gain....

[yoeddynz]

No rush at this end for anything- as folks will see soon from other project updates its been and will continue to be a bit busy around here!....

[Early jap nuter]

I never put it on the road.when I imported it they lost the dereg papers so had to sign a declaration to use it as parts or race car. It did win the coopers beach paddock bash 4 years in a row

So not salty at all....

I check back here each day hoping to see a desprung Micra

While you pour your morning coffee, a little child at heart waits.

He waits and hopes to see a little micra grading your driveway.

 

[a.craw4d]

A quick google tells me a SR20DET goes nicely in these.

 

[yoeddynz]

Yeah I think quite a few have been converted however its not all plain sailing plus they are quite a heavy engine, even though all alloy. Spoil those Micra dynamics...

I see a little turbo install in the future. Decided we will put the 1.0 and auto into Milly, the first micra and sell on for what ever we can get. Then split the second Micra (Madge?) down, use the nice bits needed to put into the 3rd Micra (Molly?) , keep all the other spares and scrap the shell  (or build a really naff Micra trailer....)

Lowering will take place but its gonna be subtle to start with... only last night we visited some friends up the Marahau Valley and it involves a ford crossing. No way the Imp would even go near it and a lowered Micra might scrape.

Skid plates you say?......
