Hi Alex, Drop me a PM and we can chat further. Sounds good. Thanks for getting in touch. Alex

Hey all, I have not posted in this forum for an absolute age. But glad to see it is still going strong! Bit of a long story short, but we have had a 1999 V Reg K11 1.0 Red in our family since 2001. It was originally my grandfathers, who bought in new. Sadly he passed not long after purchase...

Thanks for the help chaps, thing is I don't actually care what diameter they are I just want some more rubber under me, so width is more important to me, if there are some straight swap 13'' steelies which are wider/thicker I would be equally interested It's grip im after! (Y)

Deep dish are rather lush, seen Franks but what about these VW ones will they fit? What measurement am I looking at for a straight swap 14'' steelies with a 35mm drop? wheels are not my speciality

Hey guys long time no post! Have got my Micra nice and sorted recently, will post some photos, but the one thing I want to upgrade are the wheels. I need something bigger and thicker for improved grip, but I am thinking steelies rather than alloys. It’s both a money and cost thing really. I...

All sorted last weekend. Makes a big difference so pleased, recommend FK springs, lovely and stiff. Thanks for all your help!

It does come with the collar. I might try that and fiddle to see if it will go on, technically it looks just the same as the almera one. I will try to have a closer look this weekend. Thanks for the advice I'll let you know how I get on!

I got a primera 2.0 airbox for 5 quid off flea bay but it looks as though it won't fit as the hole is about 5-7mm bigger than the current one. Shame cos I was sure a few people on the boards said it was basically the same size. Has anyone got one fitted? In the scheme of things its only a...

None of the swan necks I can find have been deep enough to do the job. Halfords were very helpful (for once!) but failed to supply anything of use im kind of back to square one. I did weld myself a makeshift tool but that still didn't work. Im not letting this defeat me cos when I get it...

Guys, Im in the middle of fitting some 35mm drop springs onto my 1999 Facelift K11. The issue is with the recessed strut nuts the Haynes manual says that you may need a special dealer tool to remove them and low and behold I can't undo it for love nor money. All the happens is the nut just...

Just a sidenote but are Mini's not 1.6 not 1.3.

Damn it at that price im gonna go for them, worth a shot! Even if I had the balls to cut my springs, with my angle grindin skill im likely to cut the main fuel line and blow myself and the car up!

Too good to be true? Reviews online seem seem to be ok, should i go for them? They would only be on the car a season before I decide the next move....

Yeah Micras are feather weights! Wow! Ok so will probably go a set of SPAX they seems to be about the 120 mark not seen them cheaper unless you chaps can help. As regard exhaust system was gonna go with the Sportex Peter Lloyd system anyone use this?

Right well the thing is the car is on long term loan from my uncle, so two things: 1) I'm going for the 35mm drop because I may have to give it back and I don't want it looking or feeling like a boy-racer's car, but 2) at the same time i'd like the car to handle a bit better cos at the moment it...

Want to do the initial drop of my Micra on the cheap and not change the dampers till I decide to lower later. What are your opinions on the 35mm drop springs on the market; Spax, Apex and FK are they all much the same or are any to be avoided?

Guys if im perfectly honest I will have to drop out of this buy as I can't afford it on the run up to christmas. Also when I do get some spare wonga I want to use it to sort out my suspension first. Thanks for putting this together though.. Sorry..:blush:
