remember they are made out of paper mache, so there gonna be nippy what ever engine they've got.
however, you can do the usual TBs and turbo mods and i believe a 2lt engine from one of the other nissan rice burners fits

Is that why you ran out of fuel?
When you said you were going to fly off, I didn't realise you were literally going to fly off into the distance. My poor 106.2 bhp couldn't compete so I went home a different way in shame

hello
right then, tuned wise, just ball park figures from the 1.3's
mildish n/a - 105-110 (mine was just over 110, and could keep up with many "faster" car)
high tune n/a - 140 - 150
turbo 150+
i know of a couple of 1.8t micra's, and a couple of 2.0 (150bhp)
i have a couple of friends in taiwan that have the sr20det (220bhp) or the sr20ve (200bhp) i dont know of anyone over here with this conversion, however i can be done, so perhaps it has been done.
the thing to remember is our cars weigh about 800kg, so whatever we to, we have nippy cars if we tune them

just a point we only would need 114bhp to match your power to weight. (assuming you have a 980kg weight)
