    Engine swap anyone?

    Think this will fit in the Micra?

    That would be interesting, You should check out Jay Leno's tank-car. I'm actually wondering about engine swaps... This is K-Frame car, built from the bottom, so I wonder what the logistics of swapping a SR20 would be like... Probably not good to be honest.

    Can I dream... RB26DETT powered Micra..... ATESSA-ETS 4 wheel traction.... So many wishes. lol

    When the lease and warranty are up on my car after I buy it out, I'd like to swap in the turbo 1.6 engine from the Juke.

    We got a great engine guys. A little tweaking would do just the trick for me(Although Juke turbo sounds interesting)

    Swap the 5spd out for a 6spd!!!(I'm tired of getting worst mileage on the highway than in the city)

    I'm actually genuinely curious to look at a supercharger. Although with a custom exhaust manifold, there would be plenty of room for a turbo where the massive battery sits. Swap out to a spiral cell battery and mount it elsewhere.

    Swap in a 2jz with an AEM anti-lag. Imagine a machine-gun-sounding, fire spitting micra??
