K10 1.2 Engine

[mattnev]

Hi all, I have a G reg K10 with a 1.0 engine + 4 speed box. Unfortunately the engine has given up and I'm thinking about replacing it with a 1.2 engine. Is it a straight swap or would I need to upgrade anything such as the fuel pump, gear linkage etc? Also can you get 5 speed boxes for the 1.0's & 1.2's?

Thanks!

Pretty sure it's a straight swap!

There's lots of extra little parts on the 1.2 (Emissions stuff mostly) and you'll proly get a 5-speed box with the 1.2

What sort of emissions parts are they? Might be worth sticking with 1.0 engine and fitting a 5 speed box if there's any faffing about. Is there any other Nissans that use the same 5 speed box? any codes to go by?

anyone?

If you`re doing lots of motorway driving, then get a 5-speed.
Otherwise, I'd stick with the 4-speed on the 1.0 for a bit more oomph!

got a 5 speed box sitting about from a 1.2
and a 1litre engine as well...

how much do you want for the engine and box?
