Figaro 1.0 Turbo engine swap with k10

[Jay-786]

Hi guys needs some advise,

I got a 1.0 turbo Figaro which has some bodywork problems and engine is strong, what would you guys think if I was to swap the Figaro 1.0 turbo engine a k10 do you think its worth it or more headache than its worth..

adds like 50%more power over stock for 1 litre, so aside from needing to sort the exhaust and possible clearence issues should be ok

Not to mention the wiring loom will need changing too
But definitely worth it

Slush box to manual issues?

Annoying thing is I sorta did Believe me or not. Was before I was properly on the forum. That K10 is now running a ga16de and is out there somewhere :/

Edit: Infact I think I even offered the ma10et for offers back then but kept it
(I even remember you wanted the engine Neil)

the problem is, a rusty fig will fetch over a grand, there,s a written off fig in brum with a £1600 pricetag iirc !

They are ridiculously pricey!
Should be able to squeeze some decent power from that engine tho!
My ma10 turbo was a rocket!

Somewhat rare and desirable eh

My red gl k10 wad in mint condition... was worth alot more than your regular K10. Couldn't of asked for a more perfect car.... but nissanubaru idea won

Im in the market for a clean k10 micra to do the conversation on, I already have a Figaro which is just getting more Rusty day by day. I know of a chap who did the conversion on a micra Colette a few years ago.

If anyone knows of a micra for sale please pm me..

Would prefer a Colette as like the colour combo but anything will do but it has to be clean no rust issues..
