Installing The Engine Into My K10 Micra...
After many months of the engine sitting on the engine stand, it was finally time to work on and service the old 1L engine that was previously in the K10 Micra.
Once all of this was done it was finally time to install the engine back into the car which means more work can progress including wiring, installing the drivetrain, cooling system and much more to push this k10 Micra project car restoration further to completion.
Thanks for watching!

Firstly, apologies for the amount of camera noise throughout this video. Not too sure why its been been so bad throughout filming this but will try to get it fixed! Due to recently moving, Unit 18 was no longer within a reasonable distance to drive to, this meant finding another home for the shitboxes which is now Unit 10! The name and branding of Unit 18 will continue as this is where everythi...

Firstly, apologies for the MASSIVE delay on posting this. As mentioned in the video, the respraying of the K10 micra has been far from a smooth one. many setbacks and many fails along the way. However, now full car has been resprayed with all the body panels, I can finally show some of the process that went into this. Albeit a very select few clips. Finally, we will begin to reassemble the car ...

Recent trip down to Goodwood Motor Circuit for the FlatSix show and track day. A show entirely based on a celebration of all things Porsche. So many amazing cars, too many to fit into one aftermovie, however here were some of my favourites from the day. Enjoy!
Preparing The K10 Project Car For A Full Respray
Переглядів 2676 місяців тому
This past month has been spent preparing the K10 project car for its full respray. Many hours of preparing and sanding down the shell and body panels ready for the first layers of primer. Next month will be spent spraying the primer on, and then continuing to sand down the primer all over again to then finally apply the paint and clear coat. Anyway, sit back and enjoy!

Finally after getting the Audi 80 back on the road with an MOT for probably the 4th time, I can start using it as the daily and finally begin the restoration of the Nissan Micra K10 Project Car! In this first episode we start with removing the engine with a couple mates, then for the rest of the weekend will be taking everything off the car to end up with just the bare shell. Once this is done,...
The New Project Car...

After a couple years of wanting a K10 Micra, I finally did it and bought myself this project car. This will soon be the main big car restoration project in which I will completely tear down the car to a shell, respray the entire car, restore alot of suspension and engine components. And overall try to make this a clean show car all while I document everything here. I am by no means an expert in...
The Audi 80 Is Back In The Unit...
Переглядів 369 місяців тому
After the previous weekends track day, the k11 Micra needed only a couple small bits of fixing. Once these had been completed, the Audi 80 has now returned back into the unit due to the expired MOT. Next few weeks will be spent making the 80 ready for its MOT test, hopefully making it back onto the road for potentially the 3rd time.

After getting the Audi 80 back on the road, the spot in the garage has been taken by the k11 Micra. Ready and waiting for its final preparation to make it track day ready. This weekend was spent changing both belts, the alternator, front pads, and the brake fluid. And finally as a bonus, the Micra got a well deserved clean.

Getting My Audi 80 Back On The Road...

Hi! Welcome to Unit 18, the place where I attempt to fix up and restore older cars. I am by no means an expert at any of this, so watch along and maybe learn a thing or two as I try my best to repair and modify these cars. This weekend was the challenge of fixing my old 1994 Audi 80 after it gave up and broke down a couple weeks ago. However, as usual a simple job turned out not to be so simple.

    This channel is like a day in the life of owning old cars... and I've got to say I love it! I have an audi coupe with the same 2.0 ACE engine that Ive just spent the last three months slowly cleaning everything up suspension wise and everything underneath. Once it was ready for an mot it started to leak fuel from a cracked fuel line, so.... back to work I go 😂. Love the channel keep it up!
