ma10et with td04 turbo in a k10 magic

[Micrafox]

View attachment 50513 View attachment 50516 View attachment 50518 View attachment 50523Hello, my most recent project is a 1993 registered k10 micra magic. (black dash and interior trim with green stripes and green/navey seats, white speedometer, boot spoiler). The entire shell was completely stripped down and put on a rotating spit. Almost every seam on the shell was then stitch welded and some strengthening gussets fabricated and welded in around various areas. The rear arches were removed. The car then got a full respray inside and out.
-Ma10et figaro engine from a breakers yard. It was then stripped completely and fully rebuilt.
-5 speed gearbox from a k10.
-There is a figaro wiring loom from the fuel tank forward.
-Td04 turbo from 1998 wrx
-Custom exhaust manifold and turbo exhaust pipe
-Modified Polo 6n coilovers front and rear.
-25mm wheel spacers and 13" superlight wheels.
-New wishbones, track rod ends, wheel bearings, brakes...etc

As of yet it is driving. Needs a few tweaks here and there and a thorough testing. Should be interesting when finished. I will try and upload photos.

Any questions, fire away.
Thanks for looking!

That turbo is bigger than the motor! Looks great.

Thanks. Of the 15 K10's I've owned this was the cleanest and most rust free shell I had. The colour is RAL 9005 Non metalic black.

Wow!! This is probably the most extensive restoration of a K10 i've even seen!
Can't believe how good it looks and it should be absolutely mental with that TD04!!!

Nice job lad, serious commitment on this build
How do you find the ma10ert engine with the tdo4

I have a super turbo with very bad piston slap, am thinking of trying to find an ma10 bottom end and stick it together again. cannot find oversize pistons for the ma09 engine anywhere
