Hi Folks We were all set to go last night. Ingliston Stages are on Saturday, the new engine was in and running ok, the graphics were finished. Last 2 jobs - adjust the ignition timing and put the sumpguard back on. We had done about 40 miles on the new engine (bought on ebay as a rally engine...

Hi Folks As you will know the MSA has now decreed that all cars need an oil catch tank. Up until now we've been happy with a filter on the breather that used to go into the air filter from the front right of the engine, and the gearbox breather just in air. I admit I'm being dim, but..... The...

I thought you folk would appreciate this one!

DCC Stages, Ingliston, Edinburgh. Some in car from the weekend - things get fun at about 35 seconds, at 60+ mph.

We had a great day yesterday at a done point were looking at a top 30 finish. Unfortunately stage 7 was cut short when the rod came out the side of the block. Still, it had been fun. Here's a wee clip of us getting it a wee bit wrong

All set for the start of our season, Ingliston in Edinburgh on Saturday.

We'd been suffering serious lack of power in Molly, so diagnosed a failing fuel pump. We replaced the fuel pump today. She started fine, idled nicely up to temp. We then took her out for a test run - got 200m and she spluttered to a halt. She spins over nicely, but won't restart. I suspect the...

Had a great day out on Saturday. Seeded 67 out of 83, finished 39th and 2nd in class. There's a lot of nova and peugeot drivers scratching their heads now! Molly now has: Full rally safety gear BC Suspension Whiteline panhard rod Yoko 048 tyres 4 branch exhaust manifold with 2" system High...

Hi Folks Sorry, I know this has been discussed to death, but some of the threads seem to contradict each other. We have a 2000 W plate non-coil pack 1.0 rally car. We fancy a bit more power, but still want to be able to return it to Junior 1000 spec with not much hassle. The wiring in the...

Hi Folks The car build is going well, should be ready for pics in the next week or so. I'm looking for some advice from anyone who has fitted and used the BC Suspension kit. On the rear I am not happy with the fit. Specifically I have two issues: 1. The original dampers were removed by...

Hi folks as part of basic service for the 1999 1.0 k11 I got a new rotor and cap. I was a bit surprised to find they are different to the ones fitted - after checking with several factors! The cap is maked as Hitachi, and I have found one seller on ebay with the matching rotor arm (no...

Here's one for you all - car was running fine. We replaced the steering wheel and put a pipercross air filter on. Now it won't start. The first diagnosis was immobiliser transducer ring, so a new ECU without NATS was obtained from Ed. Still no joy, although it sounded more like it was trying to...

Hi folks As the title says, I'm new to micras and trying to build a rally car (based on the junior 1000 spec). The car is a 1.0 K11 registered in 2000, but has a facelift but no coil pack engine. I'm looking at the moment for advice in 2 areas. 1) Airbags: If I disconnect the airbag ecu...

Hi all me & my son have just acquired a 2000 K11 which we are building as a rally car. I have so far built on my zero level of knowledge to discover: a) a 2000 register is not a 2000 model. "Molly" is a facelift, but without the coil pack ignition. b) When you take out all the interior...
