Hi Plattsy! What are the petrol prices in Australia? Good luck with your project! ...Been following your thread on micra.com.au. :)

-I think too that it would be easier to use ethanol in your 100NX GTi than Micra. If I´ve understood correctly, benefits of the fuel would be even bigger with turbo engines despite of lower fuel efficiency. Ethanol tolerates more pressure than petrol so you can increase the boost pressure. (I...

I think also it could be cv joint. There is not always play in a wheel bearing although it's worn out. It's worth to check also: jack front of the car up, roll the wheel forward and keep your hand on spring. You can feel rouhness on spring if the wheel bearing's 'shot'.

Problems started around 0*C iirc.

Yeh but just a bit :). I might do it. I'm somehow attracted to these clothing-themes...my micra looks kinda shirt. ...and those sneakers are cool imo :cool:

How about painting a car like Converse sneakers? Laces on the bonnet etc.

One idea. style needs modifying to fit micra though.
