    Where to buy standard pistons?

    Hi guys, Just a quick question: Does anyone know where I can purchase new pistons? Preferably for the 1.0 cg10de to put them in our 1.3 block. I think we blew a piston ring or two rallying and two cylinders are low on compression. Every 100km the car travels it drinks 1L or so of oil. So we are...

    When you say "matching intake manifold and TB do you mean matched by porting? I'm on the same lines of thought as what you are saying. We are about to order the janspeed manifold and have a groupN exhaust ready to be fitted. Surely if you throw more agressive cams in you are going to need some...

    Once the head was off we could inspect it and the cylinders/pistons thoroughly. It looks like the pistons have been moving slightly horizontally in the cylinders so we thought it best to send the block off the machine shop along with the head. On the exterior side of things, the car is ready...

    Great work polly, brilliant fabrication work. I'm going to try the drill bit sharpening jig as we've got loads of blunt bits lying around. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk

    Holy smokes Batman I didn't think it would up c/r that much! Do you find the car runs any hotter than usual? I'd have to pick up silkolene proboost or the likes from the UK as I can't find it in Spain. Demon tweeks do a multi-buy i think. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk

    That's what I was thinking, I need to replace piston rings aswell as I think she's burning oil. I might be lucky enough for a breaker to sell me just the pistons, and not have to buy a complete engine. What sort of increase in compression does this give you? Anything to worry about reliability...

    Thanks for the input, as you say the ecu remap seems to be a must. From what i have read any small mods throw the original map out of the window. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk

    N/a engine upgrades.

    Hi guys, we plan on fitting a janspeed manifold, improved air intake and a groupN exhaust to our 1.3 desert rally Micra. At the moment I've got the engine stripped for a clean and a rebuild. Is there any bits and things I can do while I'm here to aid performance without going into...

    Now the parts i have been waiting on have arrived, I've started to strip the engine and start the rebuild. Apart from having 20 odd years of gunk in it and corroded coolant pipes, its not too bad. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk

    Rear brakes are now completely reconditioned. Front brake caliper repair kit should be turning up tomorrow. Today we painted the floorpan/interior to give it a cleaner look. Sent from my Redmi Note 2 using Tapatalk
