    1.0 to 160SR engine swap

    The 1.6 in the SR is not from the CR family of engines.... you'd be lucky if some of the accessories ( starter alternator etc. ) bolted up but the the ECU and wiring thats a whole different casino... i wouldn't gamble there but that's just my $0.02

    Inner tie rod play?

    Hate to revive an old thread but i think its worth noting that we use the same tie rods (both inner and outer) as the tiida and the note where i am those are easily accessible parts as we have poor road conditions. The brand i got is 555 out of Japan

    Micra 1.2 engine replacement

    Correction Frank I have changed an engine in my car... used the opportunity to upgrade to a 1.4 swapped over the long block with no issues at all . I should say though that mines a 04 pre-facelift model and does not have a smart key system
