The quintessential Super Turbo and K10 resource!

ToolZ · **Posted:** Tue Aug 02, 2011 3:05 pm

The next thing (I think

) we were discussing was trying to find information on the K10´s rally career.
Nakazoto, I believe it raced in the Group A less than 1600CC Group.
Per Eklund from Sweden drove one circa. 1988/1989 and I believe his best finish was in the Acropolis Rally when he finished 10th.
So lets see Per Eklund driving it like he stole it -

I feel like I have missed out lots of content that I had in my original posts.
If anybody remembers let me know.
Still a few pages worth yet, but that will have to wait for another day.
Nakazoto, everyone will think this is a thread-jack as they will have missed the conversation! :lol:

Lots more to follow and the forum is running much better now.
It is taking me a fraction of the time to re-post this but I really should go and do some work today.
See you later for more March Mayhem!

No worries. Did you get to see it first time around?
I am sure I am missing out lots of information....
Forgot to include the video of the Super Silhouette in the earlier post so here it is -

That's the ticket ToolZ, dont let the buggers grind you down!
These re-posts must be made of stronger stuff, they're weathering the "upgrades" well.
And I thought the March (Micra to us) was just a little car. Silly boy.
DNA Garage is awesome, thanks for that.

Yes, I saw it first time round.
I was quite confused when it disappeared.

OK, on with the show....
Here are some more K10 brochures.
Images where gathered from various sites over time so they may be a bit muddled up and image quality does vary.

More brochures to come later with better Super Turbo coverage

Some fun now.
I had a lot of these images saved in a file called Godzuki.
Do you guys remember Godzuki? He was the smaller sidekick of Godzilla.
So Godzilla is R32/33/34 Skyline GTR and Godzuki is March Super Turbo. There was another monster in between and his name was Pulsar GTiR -

He was an angry fellow running an SR20DET and 4WD.
K10 modifiers often modify Godzuki along these lines -

Just thought that would break up the old school brochure thread

" You still dont get it do ya ? He posts, that's all he does. He doesn't eat or sleep and he wont stop until He's posted EVERYTHING" (again...)

I am the Postinator!

Yes, David asked me to fill this post with all the information and photographs I had to create a sort of resource centre for the K10.
Not sure if he knew what he was letting himself in for! :shock:

Anyway, I´ll be back......

I remember one of the earlier posts that went missing.

On the Micra Sports Club forum they have a dedicated sub forum for K10 Super Turbo´s -

http://www.micra.org.uk/forums/79-March ... urbo-Forum

And in Japan there is the Double Charge Club -

I am pretty sure this next one is a photoshop job but I love the look of this clean little K10 -

If I remembered where I got this photograph from I would have found out who did it and given him a mention here. If you know who it was let me know and I will edit and include his name.
Nice work :tu:

Thanks.

If anyone is interested, that Safari K10 was run by team Kill Rob.
They drove it from the U.K. to Mongolia in 2007.
Their blog is no longer available but video here -

Toolz, this is freakin awesome!
There's no way you can find this much information on the K10 anymore! Hell, I can't even find any K10's for sale (aside from 2 Super Turbo's that have been for sale for about a year). Let's keep the posts rolling in, no need to worry about thread jacks, let's continue making this the ultimate resource! Plus, I'm saving all these images to my HD too, haha.

I'm going to change the title of the original post (if I can) so that way it reflects what we're going for, haha.

Anyways dude, this pictures are awesome, keep em coming!

Cheers
David
