    Looking for standard speakers

    Got a set of aftermarket ones in the end. You wouldn't know the polarity of the wires would you? I don't have a multimeter handy. On both front connectors there is a red wire and passengers side a white or cream wire and the drivers a green wire.

    Looking for standard speakers

    Just bought the adapter and a new pair of speakers. Could have got a set from the scrappy but there are going to be like 12 year old at the end of the day.

    Looking for standard speakers

    Anybody upgraded their speakers and have a standard pair going cheap? One has seized and the other has developed an annoying rattle. Don't really want to go to the expense of getting the adapter kit on top of speakers.

    1.2 sport

    Good to know, possibly the best course of action then is to swap out the springs for Sr ones then.

    Removed the inside of cat

    Yeah it's the honeycombe of precious metals that lowers the emissions. You've essential de-cated the motor. The exhaust will probably be less restrictive as a result and you may feel the car is performing better but if vosa do a roadside emission test you will fail miserably unfortunately.

    Do you happen to know if the 160sr set-up uses the same struts/shocks with stiffer springs? Or are the shocks uprated too?

    Possibly coolant temp sensor fault causing the ecu to underfuel?

    1.2 sport

    Quick question, is it safe to assume that the 1.2 sport has stiffer suspension that a standard 1.0 or 1.2? Or is the ride hight and stiffness the same?

    Squeezing more out the 1l

    Out of curiosity does the k12 use the exact same exhaust manifold as the k11 as I remember buying a modded one off Frank 4 years ago and there was gains to be had and it sounded nice too.

    Squeezing more out the 1l

    Yeah I understand the limitations with the power to weight ratio and its ideal for town driving but if I could just get a little more outta 4th gear on the big bad roads I'd be happy. That being said I don't want to throw money at it as I'd rather upgrade to a larger engined k12 after she has a...

    Squeezing more out the 1l

    Having a look around it could be doing with a good service so I'll start there, thinking oil flush, fuel treatment, new pannel filter and irridium plugs and correct tyre pressure may help a little.

    Squeezing more out the 1l

    It's been years since my last micra but my Mrs recently passed her test so naturally I got her a cheap runabout. So we picked up our 03 k12 1l on Friday but after a bit of motorway driving found it lacked power when fully laden with us and the kids. I know that naturally the k12 is heavier than...
