Nissan Micra K11 - Slovenia

[alexzaki]

Hi guys!

My name is Alexander and im from Slovenia. I own a 94' Nissan Micra K11. It's a 1.3 manual.

Well i got my Micra from my mom. She was the 2nd owner
of the car. My grandmother bought it back in 94' and was
the 1st owner. It's a great car. As soon as i became the owner
i started working on it with the help of Slovenia's Nissan & Infiniti forum: http://www.nissan-si.net/forum/

I spet quite alot of money for making this car run now like
a charm....and i LOVE it!

The engine till now is a stock CG13DE, but im hoping soon
for NA tuning on the CG or maybe a GA16DE swap. SR20DE would be awesome fun but crazy

Here is the list of the mods and add-ons i have now:

Audio setup:
-Ground Zero sub
-Ground Zero amp
-Balupunkt Sevilla MP38
-Aviator front speakers & tweeters

Exhaust setup:
-Remus exhaust

Till now runing stock manifold and stock exhaust pipes. Hoping soon for 4-2-1 manifold and DECAT fi50 pipes with NA tuning on the CG13DE or GA16DE/SR20DE swap....we'll see

Chassis:
-H&R spring kit
-KYB Excel G gas suspension
-New stabilizer links
-New CV joints

Wheels & Tyres:
-Arcasting Excalibur 15" 7J rims
-Toyo Proxes 4 tyres (195/45/15)

Brake setup:
-Nissan Sunny N14 calipers
-Brembo discs (aircooled & 240mm...bye bye solid 234mm)
-Ferodo pads
-Castrol Response DOT4 brake fluid

Here are some pics:

See you around

Hi Alexzaki ! Like your pictures and the blue metalic color of your car.
What is funny is that I was watching your video on youtube last night (love when you drive under the yellow lightened tunnel) and was wondering from wich eastern european country you were from ! So it's Slovenia.
One more left driving Micra in the club
Cheers

Alex

you got some nice mods done to it. cant believe its a family owned car since it was new thats good is that. you should try some colour coding now

[alexzaki]

@Seb_: So you came over that video on youtube.....hehe it's pretty old . How the hell you knew it's the same car? Probably by the username on youtube i guess

@Manny: If i'll do any colour coding it will be the bumpers....although they don't look bad in original black
Now it only has 118,000 km....runs like new. I got my licence 6 years ago, and it had back then ONLY 45,000km for a 94'.

In April as soon as the weather gets a little bit warm, i'll tint the glass and it'll probably make her more brutal


See ya

HOT WHEELS tm
a fast one thanks for the view!!

[Seb_]

Alex: I think I have seen ALL the K11 vids on youtube XD.

The spring is going to be hella full of hot fine K11 work for everybody

Cheers!

[alexzaki]

@ R-REG-SR: Thanks man

@ Seb_: Youtube connecting people i guess

[alexzaki]

Ok, finally something new on the K11. Yesterday i received my CAI by Toyosports from UK. This is how it looks on the K11:













Guess the next step will be cleaning under the hood, polishing the rocker cover, and maybe spraying it.

See you all soon

[Manny]

that looks really good. does it make a nice sporty sound? good bosche battery there.

[alexzaki]

I had a standard sport air filter mounted directly on the TB and it made different sound than this one. I like this one more . This one has more ROAR . Too bad its all snowy here, pushing the pedal too hard, and the wheels just spin

As for the battery its new. I had a Topla, and i soaked its juices in like 3 years. Probably because im running 45Ah battery w/ a sound system (woofer, amp...).

I bought that Bosch because many friends recommended it over Topla, but im worried because its also 45Ah. The problem with K11 is that they have small base to put the battery into. Probably you'd get a larger battery if you modify the base where you put the battery into

[K11 Gazza]

Great lookin car you got there alexzaki

[alexzaki]

Thanks man , doing my best

[R-REG-SR]

were is them hotweels gone

[alexzaki]

In winter i take the alloys off and put 155/70/13 winter tyres On March the 15th, we can take the winter tyres off, and put back the summer tyres here in Slovenia

But as you see, there is still snow all around the car so i'll probably have to wait till the end of March

[alexzaki]

So yesterday me and a friend thought of a better way to stabilize the CAI pipe. We came up with this :

[alexzaki]

Ok, so today i did some work on the car and repainted my brake drums. They were rusty and looked bad after putting the rims back on.

Thats how the brake drum looked with the rim on:


The drum after removing the rim:


Grinded & ready for paint job:


Painting the right brake drum:




Painting the left brake drum:




The final product (i think it looks way much better than before):


See ya

[alexzaki]

So i have been looking for some used bucket seats for my K11. All i have seen till now were seats in bad condition. Till i found those of the Suzuki Swift GTi. The guy wanted minimal money and i jumped straight ahead and bought them

That's how they look......i think will do much better in cornering than the original Micra seats of the LX model.









Now i'll have to figure out how to install them....just need some time probably hehe

Will report

[alexzaki]

So i'm reporting back......

Belive it or not those SSGTi seats took me and a friend 11 hours straight work to fit them in my K11. OMG we almost lost our minds and nerves!!

But now their in and we took it for a spin today and i just love the quality of the ride.

Here's some pics....





















I'm glad the seats project is over. Really

C ya

[R-REG-SR]

look and feel good ibet good works

[alexzaki]

Thanks man

[Mailys62]

Good job, nice car !

[alexzaki]

Thanks man
Was checking your blog now and i like the white alloys...they fit your K11 pretty well

Hope my car glass will be tinted this month. Just have to make some arrangements and we'll see the final results

Will be back

[Shaun]

the seats look amazing! very nicely done k11 well done

[alexzaki]

Thanks Lovely K10 you got there as well

[alexzaki]

OK, so a mini update

Today i got my glass tinted. Im so pleased with the results

The pugi is my friends, 1.6 90bhp. The car is lowered on VMAXX springs and has KYB Excel G gas
suspension (same as mine). Gotta admit it, that my H&R springs are much much stiffer (sometimes annoying).

[alexzaki]

No change on the K11, just wanted to share the quick vid i made using a spy-cam that i recieved from ebay. Note that youtube drastically decreases video quality. I was actually pretty amazed from the original video i took:



And here's another one i took using my mobile. Today i went for a ride on some mountain roads and got the exhaust fully warmed up . Here's the Remus tone under low RPM (full DECAT soon ):




P.S: If anyone of the admins reading this, please could you move this to K11 Blogs?

Thanks,
Alex

[peposhi]

Alex, I'm happy to see how much effort you put in you Micra. I'm pretty much the same
The car looks lovely! Keep up with the good work and updates!

I love the idea with the spy camera, man

Where did you get it?
I hope you don't mind if I do the same

[alexzaki]

Jo man hi!

Sorry for the late reply, been busy those days

Thanks for your comment.

I got the spycam from ebay. A friend ordered it for me and it came from Hong Kong . Here is a link where you can order them: http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_t...All-Categories

[peposhi]

Hi, Alex

The link shows only cameras integrated in key holders...

Is that the one

[alexzaki]

Jup, mine is the same as those here on the link i gave you

[alexzaki]

Not a big update, but thats how the car stands atm Recieved my clear side indicators from UK and a JDM shocker

Few pics:







And some porn with my friends S14a @ stage 3a (380bhp, 510torque):





See ya

Alex

[peposhi]

Car looks nicer and nicer !
Where did you get your mud flaps?

[alexzaki]

They are original I just removed the rear ones and left the front ones

[alexzaki]

So a little unexpected update hehe

Yesterday my friend went to Italy to get some parts for his Clio. He came back
with this





And the gauge installed and runing:

Also recieved yesterday my boss kit for my aftermarket steering wheel (which im still waiting to get):







Will update,

Greetings,
Alex

[R-REG-SR]

good vid
coming together well

[alexzaki]

Thanks man. Im hardly waiting to recieve my steering wheel

[Seb_]

Funny it's from a NCVT (automatic gearbox) How much did he pay for it? And did you managed to set the good number of KMs on it ?
Cheers

Seb

[alexzaki]

The KMs that came with the gauge were 239k. Those on the pics are mine, and they are real because we are the first owners of the car

Yup, its from an automatic Micra i knew it straight from thr N-CVT thingy , and he paid 30e for it. Its a rare rare item here in Slovenia, so i bought it from him straight away

[funky2nite]

haha so you should have gone over my ####ty vid on you tube messing with my micra at school

Alex: I think I have seen ALL the K11 vids on youtube XD.



Cheers!
