I have two if still needed and am in Hastings

Thanks Glen, I just sent said email to NASA and will post relevant info as and when I get it, thanks everyone else for you comments and in the spirit of the old Cherry Turbo Club I once was a member of way back when, KEEP THE RICE BURNING!

I haven't forgotten the rule book which is why I am asking the questions. It is stated clearly in the rules that any Nissan Micra 998cc 16 valve manual transmission engine and gearbox may be used in any 1993 to 1999 year of Nissan Micra 998cc 16 valve 3 or 5 door bodyshell. The donor car must be...

I am in Hastings area but willing to travel.

I have been studying the NASA rule book this afternoon and it clearly states the RS5F41A is the only permitted gearbox for the k11 Micra, so until they amend whats written I have no choice than to comply with their rules, especially as we plan on doing the Nationals this year and the top three...

Thanks, looks like I just gave myself a load of work to do!

Thanks Frank, I have just been reading some posts about this, would I be right to think that I will need a flywheel and clutch (160mm) left and right driveshafts, and of course the box its self, all out of a pre facelift 1.0l to do the conversion. What about the steer knuckles, are they the same?

Thanks, I will have a look through. Just thought though, this means that the NASA rule book contradicts its self. My engine/gearbox combination is standard and original fitment in my car which is a 1999 model, a legal variant. So I will have to break the rules by mix and match to comply?

Thanks Technicalt, I have just read the additional info in the NASA 2014 class one rule book and you are spot on. This presents me with a problem, the box I have in the car has been confirmed by Nissan Tech as being an RS5F30A which has second gear ratio of 1.826 : 1 and a 4.470 : 1 final drive...

In Autograss it would be slower to go 2 to 3 and then back down so higher ratio is the only option I can think of within the rules. When he is at the end of the straight he just backs off a little then tuns in so a gear change would be slower. My box maybe desirable for road or rally but for us...

Hi all, I'm new to the site today so forgive me if this question has already been asked and answered. My son runs a Class 1 Autograss K11 and I fitted a new engine and gearbox complete to it for this season. The engine and box came out of a very late 1999 model pre coil pack K11 with 14 inch...
