    Sr20 swap, Almera gti, k10 micra build

    Fair enough. What's the front lip recipe? Looks like a pretty good alternative to the elusive Super S item.

    Those are front wishbone inner bushes for 90s Civics, ones like those: http://www.strongflex.eu/en/acura-integra-93-01/150-front-wishbone-inner-bush-sport-5902553505535.html?search_query=081095a&results=5 You might need to machine them down just a bit to fit easily, but I managed to fit them in...

    160. Stock was 128, I ordered 140, 150 and 160 and installed the biggest ones right away to find the result quite satisfying. Fuel consumption around town has dropped to around 11 l/100km from initial 17 after some tuning. Chased down some air leaks in the vac tank and after some fiddling with...

    Well, I have a LUK clutch kit. Guess I might have to go hybrid.

    Yet another short text update before I leave for a week or so. I almost managed to get the idle mixture decent, but the next day one of the screws fell out at some point, so I'm waiting for a replacement to arrive. Also changed the thermostat to a 89 Celsius one, which helped a bit with the...

    Good news everyone! Micra is in running condition again and I've been driving her around for the past few days without any major issues save for massively rich mixture due to the fuel pump apparently doing it's damnest to make up for the previous two. So, what's she like, you might ask. Well...

    So, this was supposed to be a different post, but as always, everything had to go to ****. Last weekend I put the remaining brake stuff together, bled the whole system and for the first time since the engine was pulled, she drove a few hundred metres under her own power. Which was nice...

    best lowering springs

    I have Lesjofors -35mm progressive springs with KYB gas shocks and am quite pleased with how they feel.

    Corsa piston build with throttle bodies

    No worries, I set fire to mine this way.

    I checked the Haynes manual and yes, this is the later model type (used 1988 onwards) where the wheel hub/bearing assembly is separate from the brake drum. The engine was 1.0, but I think all facelift models had this type.

    Okay, so I'm not dead, I've just been kinda busy/lazy with stuff, progress is present though, just never had the time nor willpower to write up a post. Been putting off posting those pics for two weeks now, so just have a look and maybe I'll write something up during downtime at work or...

    Bens K10. The Second Micra

    Finally! Also, she looks damn good with those wheels. Guess I gotta get my ass in gear and update my thread as well now.

    1.2 k10 gearbox

    Worth keeping in mind that preface CG10 shared the gearbox with MA10, rather than MA12 as far as gear ratios go, thus said gearbox will have shorter ratios and final gear. Unless I'm mistaken.

    Yet another carbed CG13 K10

    Got a fair chunk of work done over the weekend, thanks to the finally proper nice weather. Wrapped the exhaust, finished the intake manifold, mounted the PAS tank and remaining hoses along with water pump pulley and drive belt, mounted the fuel pump in a secure spot, removed the remaining...

    Yet another carbed CG13 K10

    Slowly, but forward. Got a bunch of minor stuff done over the past month. Took the rear end of the car apart, the fuel tank, axle and links, exhaust and intake and such. Cleaned up and grinded the intake manifold before it gets painted to make it look a bit more presentable, also ground away the...

    Advice

    If you can find any, I'd recommend going for gas shocks, as they're much better than stock oil ones. I'm running a set of KYB Excel-G gas shocks all around and Lesjofors -35mm springs and they provide for enjoyable handling, while still making it possible to go over bumps. Definitely a massive...
