Pity there aint a lot of actual "80's" Chester in this vid
It was mainly about the music and the cars as well as the nightspots I used to frequent
I was disappointed with this hotel , the food and service wasn’t good, I left feeling it could be so much more ! Thanks for sharing your experience
I like to hear your recommendations, I had an invite and VIP tour of the Rixos Seagate which I rated, bout like to hear your experiences of alternatives to the Steigenberger
@@davidlee4966 I’ve been to Rixos adult only and was much better than alcazar imo
@@davidlee4966 I’ve been to Rixos adults only and that was superb 👌
The Trevor arms in Marford and the Golden Lion Rosset, is in Wrexham not Chester
As the caption suggests a drink stop en route, a bit of a ritual at the time
@@davidlee4966 Fair enough, on the way from Wrexham to Chester
Not a 5 star at all worst hotel ever if you dont tip you dont get a service
I am here again, and I can assure you the service is impeccable
We stayed for a week food in main hall was bland no taste waiters only come up to your table if you tip them the sand on the beach is not proper sand and just rocks so much much definitely not a 5 star there's shouldn't be huge tipping culture at a 5 start hotel
@@user-xr7je3rh1zwe have found the food at all restaurants to be very good, the sand admittedly is gritty but comparison to parts of the carribean or parts of Cornwall, but if you choose one of those two it’s either much further, much more expensive or both, you choose
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS BRO!!!! ❤3 Years ago I got a ca18det Nissan Engine and you are my template... been obsessed for a while and seeing this when I'm about to setup my engine install is perfect
Hi, Can you please elaborate on the strait swap of the K12 to K11 injectors?
There are literally a one for one replacement, the same fittings and same connector, the K22 injector offer a much better spray pattern
@@davidlee4966 Ah in this case the CGA3DE has the same injector shape as the later models, different from the older cg13deand cg10de models. Got it.
Lovely video David. Thank you for sharing. I am considering trying to video some of my next tour, May 2024 and am very interested in the equipment that you used and how you mounted it for the road shots. You did a nice job of illustrating the paths. Did you use helmet mounted GoPro or DJI (or mobile) or did you use chest or handlebar mount. I was considering using a helmet mount. Any advice from your experience? Thanks.
For the Spain, France, UK trip I predominately used my Go Pro Helmet mounted either facing forward or backwards, for subsequent trips I made a hand held mount just to get different camera angles and an opportunity to do a vlog whilst riding.
@@davidlee4966 Thank you David. Helmet mount was my first thought too. Will give it a go. Cheers.
Great video thanks David
hi david why was the hotel so dead?
The video was done before 7:30am, so most people we still getting themselves together, it was generally quiet though, I think late Nov is off peak, xmas being busy then tailing off again, Until spring time.
Nicht gerade das beste Hotel, man merkte es an der Sauberkeit 😢
What differences do the rally cams make? Thanks! ☺️
Wider lap and higher lift cams are essential for making high end power, the rally cams should make peak power at around 7500rpm
That is a wonderful video the Hotel at Sharm El Sheikh is like a palace and so many sporting facilities at Sharm El Sheikh to! Good underwater shots to with the reefs! 👍
What have you done for higher compression?
Chester was great in the 1980s, it's gone downhill now, you don't feel safe out a night, people with knives. Some of those photos were taken late 90s and early 2000s
Hi David, how is your Mini now, I’ve seen upto the fitting of the ECU but nothing after that, did you get to finish it off thanks
Hi, its been a difficult year, but back in the groove, I have a base map ready, and just need to get in the garage and get on with it, I will do another video
Is k11 Nissan same specifications torque for head gasket with micra 2008 model?
the 2008 model or K12 is a different engine so you will need to check the workshop manual to be sure
Hello! Could you share the route you took from Bilbao to Irun?
Is she running yet?
Not yet, almost there, life has really got in the way especially the last few months. Just about to get an engine map done
I am a new follower of your channel Greetings from Sweden
Haha jizz fab
I’m going in 6 days
Great vid! Can’t wait to go soon
Have fun!
@@davidlee4966 Thx! Couple more weeks now
Mans a legend!
What happened to the rest of the build?
Our Chester student nurses set used to club ' a lot' 1984-88. Blimpers, Cinderella Rockafellas, Rendezvous, and great to see the fliers in this video but mostly High Society nightclub that doesn't appear. Anyone have more links to share?
It was great time to be in Chester, Rendezvous was the place to be, also used to frequent the wine bars on Lower Bridge St, now sadly gone!
How's the project going david?
Its been slow up until recently, just got back into it, recommissioning the chassis electrics, just about to start the ECU programming etc, so will do another youtube video soon, can't wait to finish it to start a new project
@@davidlee4966 any ideas on the next or take em as they come?
I was a regular at Links disco, became Cinderella's, over the Tavern in the town. Early 70's. Joined RAF in 1973. And was shocked when I came back years later and it's all gone
Rendezvous was my usual place, cinders occasionally
@@davidlee4966 before 1973 it was, kings, Quaintways, or silhouette.. all gone I think. 🤔
So mad
What happened to the mini?
Still in work, too many projects and hobbies (dare I get in boating) tbe current being the prep for a dedicated garage for the mini once complete, thanks for the prompt to get another mini video done
Nice one David , i am starting out 28th June , over to Holland on ferry , then train to Basel , going to do the lower Rhine area to lake Constance , into Switzerland for a few days , train up to Passau from Zurich , do the Danube to Bratislava, then a train to Trieste , do the Parenzana trail , Istria , visit Pula and on to Rijeka , ferry to Rab island , and then onto Zadar and coast route to Split Dubrovnik, back on ferries to Split , night train to Zagreb , train back to Vienna , Hannover, Amsterdam , ferry home , cant do flights as have a duel battery touring e-bike !
Blimps lol
I've some 80's of town, they didn't look like this lol.
Great work David and great videos! Where do you source your parts? Gasket sets etc? I'm doing a CG13 rebuild and having trouble finding pistons, bearing shells etc. Pete
Humphries Motorsport, I put a link in the description, he is excellent;- informative, very experienced on the K11, and prompt with deliveries
Мне нравится. Привет из России
Great video! Are those forged internals?
All internals are stock, apart from the cams, it’s a strong engine with a max rpm of about 7800, I have been assured that a lot of auto grass cars run them to 10000rpm on a regular basis!
Great job, Lee, do you make these for other mini users? As I would be interested.
I am afraid not as I have a full time job
@@davidlee4966 thanks in getting back David.if your up for a quick buck I will supply the goods.
The original CGA3DE pmh sensor is compatible with the maxxecu? how do you configure it in mtune ? thank you.
Not got to that bit yet, but I see no reason why it should be an issue.
Just binge watched all your videos of the Micra Mini build … really enjoyed all so far. What have you planned next to do on the project?
David lee mini
Excited for a new video.....
Brilliant video sir! Could I ask though would you ever consider doing these kind of projects for customers? I'm researching everything I can about k11s for maintenance and to be able to modify for performance and efficiency, I bet there would be plenty of members from the micra mafia that'd love to be able to buy a ready made 130-140ishbhp engine to be able to slap straight into a k11 chassis, even my little 1.0 50 something bhp micra is a little go kart on tight B roads but people I know have turbod supercharged these nissan engines or just straight swapped for something more beefy, but one bloke made a sleeper with basically this exact engine except it was no way near as clean but 0-60 5.7 seconds and could go past 130mph, that's the type of performance I'd love in my little go kart 😂
I turbo'd my cga3de, and it makes 142bhp on a stock engine!
So are you putting the k12 injectors into the k11 fuel rail or using gsxr600 injectors?
Also, what does your fuel system look like on this set up?
I have used k12 injectors there are a straight swap
I’d love to put one of these in a small hot rod, like a Ford Anglia, Model Y, Morris Minor, Austin A35, MG Midget, Farina A40 or Austin 7. If you can bolt it up to a Miata or Borg-Warner T5/ Tremec or Ford Type 9 transmission, I’d use it.
How are you going David? Hoping for an update on the mini build soon!
All has stagnated recently due to other projects that I could get on with during the lockdowns. I am just about to finish off the mini after taking some inspiration at the mini day at Castle Combe held over the weekend
Aaa h
Great video again your knowledge is epic .
Another excellent video. I love my mini, i loved my 2 micras k11 and a mini with a micra motor is my dream. Too bad for me i live in France and this is impossible on open roads :( Keep up the good work ! 👍
Wow!!! Super beautiful Place David! Watching from the Philippines!!!
Going on Saturday with my friend
Hi. Build looks amazing. Great attention to detail. Could I ask where you got your exhaust manifold from? Thanks
Gizfab, he is based in Skegness, and great to deal with he done my inlet manifold as well, again top job
@@davidlee4966 many thanks. That’s good to hear. That’s who I was planning to use. Sadly they don’t do an inlet plenum for standard injection
