Pre 1996 1.0 k11 dont come with any anti roll bars. good news is that you can upgrade by bolting on the parts for a front bar, but there is a different axle at the rear so no rear bar can be bolted on. its worth doing the upgrade. or get a 1.3 k11.

i just tested it, it works ok. but you have to retype your password under you existing password for the update to take effect, otherwise it does nothing.

in the uk we dont have any ga15 engines. we have ga16. the ga16 injectors are a direct fit replacement for cg10/13de injectors. they are not like the ones you have pictured. also in uk the ga16 throttle body bolts to the k11 engine, with a few adjustments and the use of the ga16 ecu. if you are...

oops you owned me on that one. i could trawl other threads as a comeback but wont bother. a reminder for all members anyway.. be warned or i shall read you my poetry.

sorry i'm a text speak moderator, so thought i should do something. my evidence: b4 some1 cos do continue. hey what's a bogan? sounds like Vogon, the nasty aliens who blew up the earth to make way for an interstellar bypass, according to the Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy. anyway Don't Panic.

less "text speak" please tris. Firefox is good for spell check.

that looks like its sitting at a higher ride height than a standard micra. quite a big distance between ground and bottom edge of chassis/bumpers.

jax, 1.0 pistons have been fitted to 1.3 micra block. i do not know what compression is achieved. they are same fitment. the 1.3 is a longer stroke thats how it get the extra capacity.

i'm not suprised at this but, they get shipped to the other side of the planet from the UK and they sell it for less than the price is costs us here to buy one. i hate uk prices for all goods.

was reading autocar today and it says last week the 1st lot of civic type R came over to you from uk. the 1st non euro country to get them from us. have you seen them about?

i cant remember for sure but i thought mode 2 was emissions diagnostics and mode 1 was for ecu errors?

exactly, i push the car hard but i dont feel that i am mistreating it. it gets nice oil changes. i often rev to 7krpm, but the engine is designed to take it no problem.

i think i'm quite hard om my cars. in the micra. i was at 2 sets of pads per disc. 1 set of performance pads per year. full set of tyres 1 year/8000 miles.

that dyno graph is confusing me. how is it possible to get over 400nm. is that a 2.0 turbo diesel you have? we dont have that in the clio in uk. but in the megane it makes 150bhp as standard and 340nm. so i guess you have a version of that in the clio..?

sorry man, but that is a funny story. when i read the bit about the barrier swinging a full rotation and taking out the rear window i burst out laughing. what a story to amuse your friends with for life. cool. but sorry about the damage etc. if insurance covers it thats good. if only that was...
