Normal st money. See them between 1800- 3500 recently. Depends on condition and spec as well.

Does that look like all I need to get started

 

[gtspud]

Did you ask your mate mas12555

 

[mas12555]

Looks like everything mate, but that looks like an auto box then which makes me sure its from a figaro. Heard you need the fuel tank from them as well which I think is strange. Just a electric fuel pump show do eh @Baz .

 

[gtspud]

Well all I no is it was in a boxy micra ya no... I dont want it to be an auto tho tryin to change it ya no just need to see how an what I need I made a post about it

[gtspud]

[gtspud]

Ah I see I see tot it might make it hander to fit a manual g box onto it as Im not keeping it as auto if I can help it lol

[Baz]

Only the st gearbox had an lsd

 

[gtspud]

So do they look ri baz.. im going down to james today ta have a look at a clean k10 shell so should start to be gettin her ready todau

 

[Baz]

One of the inner joints splined shaft should be longer , that one isn't , where's the outer joint?

 

[gtspud]

Other one is still in the hub what every thing still on it ill get a pic if needs be l8r on

 

[frank]

like this gtspud, and i thought the vlsd were an option on the autobox figaro,s ?

 

[gtspud]

Thanks ill see if I can get down l8r to look at it an take a pic yea

 

[gtspud]

Dont forget the turbo march came as auto aswell

 

[gtspud]

Thats the book off them

 

[mas12555]

Super turbos came auto as well mate. theres no difference between an auto march turbo engine/gearbox to a figaro engine/gearbox is there.

 

[gtspud]

Yea I no pal just didnt no if mounts were the same for the boxs or not

 

[mas12555]

Yea I no pal just didnt no if mounts were the same for the boxs or not

When I went to the classic car show in Birmingham spent an hour speaking to a Figaro techie and he said the mounts are the same. They are a K10 just with a different shell.
He said no one in the UK figaro club really modify their cars which is boring so theres no super turbo swaps, cg swaps or even ga swaps. All the ones in the figaro club still run ma10et.

 

[gtspud]

Sound man just wasnt sure as im still new to car building lol done a few but not a lot ya no but this one will not be getting sold when its fix ill be keeping it
