Sadly the time has come to part with my faithful little micra, I planned to keep it as a second car since getting my new car but now I need the space for something else. Its a 2001 Green 3dr Manual 1.4SE+ making it quite a rare spec. Its got all the chrome bits, leather steering wheel, opening...

had my tyres changed today, the old falkens on the front were getting low but they were badly worn on the inside edge. Now, i really would have thought it was the tracking, but the last time i had the rear tyres changed it had a full tracking adjustment even though they said it wasnt far out to...

Are Micras starting to get a little more thin on the ground? The reason i ask is ive been looking for a 1993/1994 micra 3 door manual for a while (no sunroof, no p/s, absolutly basic spec) Low mileage good condition, and whilst i havnt been constanly looking i havnt seen anything matching that...

Hi all Hoping someone could point me in the right direction. For some time ive noticed a starting problem with my 2001 1.4 se+. Its always fine starting when its cold, but every so often when i try to restart it when its been running for a while, it will initialy turn over slowley, then turn...

hi all, hoping someone can help me. I noticed last week that the inside edge of both front tyres were very badly worn, the rest of the tyre has plenty of tread. went too get the tracking checked and they said it was a little bit out but not bad enough to cause that much wear. The changed the...

I havnt been on here in a while as my micra got thumped by a van and I lost all interest for a while. Now that ive got the micra mojo back i need to get tyres for it. Its got 14x6 (et35 i think) alloys on it with the standard 165/60/14 tyres at the moment and im going to go with some 185/55/14...

This weekend I decided to upgrade the bulbs on my 2001 k11 SE+ after driving home in the fog last week and realising last week that the bulbs that were currently fitted were rubbish. Headlight bulbs are now sorted, sidelight bulbs match, but when i came to do the front fog bulbs i got stuck. I...

I went shopping today at the local breakers yard to get a couple of minor things - prefacelift rear lights and early facelift grill. Now, the yard I went to is a big one, Bridges in Crawley, and in the past ive always come away with what I wanted, and last year I went down there and there were...

I seem to be suffering a bit of a wheel gold-rush at the moment, the latest ones ive been offered are some quite unusual 4x100 7x15 ET24 BMW alloys. 175/50/15's seem to be the way to go, but does anyone have any pics of a micra with this wheel/tyre combo on? Currently torn between these for...

On the second time of writing out this post after the first one vanished , im going to do this one abit shorter this time lol I picked up my new car today after a month or so at looking at other micras, and just seeing obscenely priced rubbish. I wanted something decent and either a 3dr...

since my car was written off last month :( ive been looking for a car to replace it. The original plan was to find a 1.4 3 door manual, but all i could find were 5dr and/or auto. I looked at afew localish cars but they were all scrached or dented in some way, 1.0, or damaged/repared. Yesterday I...

In my quest to find a decent micra ive realised that micra prices are either A) Over-inflated or B) Currently generaly rather high. I went to see an R-reg prefacelift today with 30k on the clock. Its only faults are the corner of the windscreen is delaminated (will need one soon), it needs a...

Up until a week ago i had a low mileage 2002 facelift micra. After years of owning classics i really grew to like the little thing, and now that its been written off Ive decided to get another micra and ive seen a 21000mile 1997 prefacelift that looks to be mint. Realy mint. My question is...

Ive had this for a while now and figured it was about time i started a thread for it. I started one on another forum but thought this is a more suitable place for it. I bought this as a daily little over a year ago and its been good as gold. There was some damage on it when I got it (cheap)...

Ive just picked up some prefacelift rear light units for my 52 plate K11 Micra and when wiring them up its all not quite right. Indicators are fine, but when i put the sidelights on the indicators come on. to save me faffing about has anyone fitted these before and worked out what needs snipping...

Does anyone have any experience of fitting Black Racing wheels to micras? Ive seen them fitted to Honda Civics but cant find any pics on Micras. Planning to buy some 6x14 8 spoke split rims for my micra in 4x100, wondered if there was any reason why they wouldnt fit. Cheers .

Can anyone tell me if there are any front seats from any other Nissan that will fit straight in my K11 micra? I find that I sit quite high in mine being quite tall so id like to lower the seating by as much as possable, whilst still having comfy-ish seats, so buckets and the like are out of the...

Ive noticed afew k11 facelift micras with the chrome inside the headlight blackened. Obviosly this doesnt include the actual reflecter bowl itself, but how much of the chrome bit can be done? does it affect the brightness of the headlights at all? And is it legal? Also, if removing the orange...
