Welcome to the AOC.

Tons of info on turboing in the forums. You will need to become a member to get some of the really useful info but it's well worth a few quid.
 
Hi and welcome to the AOC...
There is lots of information on the forum...

The search button is your friend.

And check out other peoples rides for inspiration. ;)
 
Hello again. The Almera was a doner car for a Micra K11 Project. however ive just bought a already done 2002 K11 Micra with SR20DET engine in it so this almera will be up for sale shortly. Ill be looking at £500 for it if anyone is interested and will sort out a for sale advert in the near future.

however i have a question.

The SR20DET micra is fitted with a 2001 primera gearbox. Now the clutch will start to slip at 4k RPM in 4th and 5th gear, all other lower gears its just wheelspin!.
What Clutch should i be looking for? Stage 1,2,3,4? The car is running around 250bhp and have a dyno printout from the car a while back before boost was turned up at 214bhp.

Many Thanks
 
Just a update. Basically micra blew head gasket back in dec and finally got it repaired

Anyhow few quotes from micra sports club


Back up and running perfectly again thanks to previous owner who came from stoke to repair it! Had full service too! New spark plugs, new oil flush then drained and new oil filter then proper oil in

we had No bent valves. We had some spares just incase though.

They have had this setup in for 6 years no problems. Been in a Almera, a primera and this micra.

Cam went due to shims being fitted in wrong sides. The rocker arms have thinner bits on one side so it sits perfectly. When we fitted ours we basically forced the rocker in the shim causin it to crack and come off and hit cam and snap it! Replaced rocker arms, few shims and the whole cam. Had to retime it all too

They were fantastic with their help and clearly not sold me the car an fobbed me off. That deserves respect in my eyes!

Everything fitted back together and he made sure it ran fine, it boosted fine etc.

We didn't turn turbo down though. Apparently he said we don't need to as it can withstand it which is 9psi

Ill be taking it to them to get clutch changed next month.

From now on ill start her up. Sit in her for 10 mins with iPad or phone and play some games/surf the net then drive her slowly then I can open her up :-). Same again when stopping to turn her off.

Btw when we drained the first oil it was like piss!! I had some spare oil so we poured that in with sump plug out so we saw that just going straight through. Put sump plug in. Filled back up with castrol gtx. Turned her over. Ran her for 10 mins then dropped that. Changed oil filter and put Fuchs race pro s oil in (recommended by opie oils) and ran her for 10 mins upto temp. Checked everything over. Took her out up and down the street nicely then but more briskly then a bit more to see how it boosts. They did say once warmed I could hard drive it but I wasn't taking any risks lol.

Just need to sort the new drivers headlight out as its pointin down! And fit the Almera passenger seat again for MOT time

Mot hopefully at weekend an will get some videos made from inside the car and outside in 3D 1080p (for the geeks like me haha)

Boosting. I wanted to see a extreme beating and if it didn't withstand I wasn't miles from home.
