    Started life as a 1348cc coilpack engine. A set of Bespoke AutoSprint cams were fitted along with GSXR bodies and a Boggs Brothers manifold. Its then managed by a DTA s40 ECU. No head work, no skimmed head even. Ample power with such little cost. :)

    Brake and Fuel Lines- In Car

    Full braided brake lines will give you a feeling of a bit more of a "spongy" (wont be massively noticeable) pedal compared to running as much copper lines as you can. Both wouldn't be a problem obviously, just depends what you think it best. Both of my Micras have been copper inside with braided...
