ah i see, and agree. buy it now on an auction site is totally pointless. You are asking a collector price so your chances are not great. Utility wise, the car is worth about £300. If you want a premium, i'd guess you are best off waiting to find someone looking to buy a GT. Otherwise there will b...

From where does the ECU know at what pressure it is running ?

Is it trough that silicone pressure line going into the ECU ?
there is a hose going to the ecu. I believe this is a 'pressure line'.

throttle skill?

I know controlling the throttle on a carbed engine gives better performance.

Is the same true for the 480 T?

Is putting your foot flat to the floor the quickest the car will go??

you might as well just post here its a j reg k10 1.0 4 speed with 55k miles if i remember correctly. Definitely less than 60k. The reason it has been sat on my drive doing nothing is that it has a) 55k miles, b) i have given it a full service including a new clutch and c) i know micras like the back...

i understand the fairness. I currently have a project micra and a perfect runner parked on the drive. Unless you want to swap the es for a mot 'able 1.0l 4 speed perfect running k10? It needed a bulb and a split pin for its mot last time I put it in for a check. Hasn't been used since. Its worth aro...

I could do with a few lights, rear clusters and a spare gearbox and clutch would be nice. If you are interested in breaking the turbo at all, please let me know.

i had budget tyres on when I got the car. The under steer was frighting - even at low speeds. I replaced them with ventus k102's which might not be the best tyre in the world - but cost £50 nearly new fitted. The difference was profound. I haven't yet (touch wood) had the car understeering uninte...

I have to rev past 4000, to get the needle on the Turbo gauge beyond the factory max. charge point (go over 0,45 bar). Mine is the same. I think I read somewhere that rich designed the mod to start with 3/4 throttle. So with less than 3/4 throttle it is boosting to the factory level, and with more ...

I received my ecu this afternoon :)

Got it fitted after fighting the air hose thing.

It is mental!

From around 3k rpm up you can really feel the acceleration pulling you back.

Thank you Lee

Great Job!
