    what did you do to your micra today ?

    Getting there is one thing, getting back with clothes still on your back is another... New phones are always nice though :) pick a nice one with some future proofing and adaptability so it lasts a while. And how on earth was your tyre deteriorated if you just bought new ones?

    Not sure I've seen that either. Be messy if I crashed at work though... Ten grands worth of bodyshop supplies and paint all over the place, plus the boss would kill me on sight lol.

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    Yeah you can pop the seatbelt clasp open with a screwdriver and some encouragement and fix/replace the spring that holds the latch in. Literally 2 minute job and then pop it back together. And you're done :)

    Ahh nice one, good swap I think. Did you sell the backbox in the end or did you just get the whole gig gone in one? Be good to see you with a more pleasing project around :)

    if its an early pre facelift it'll be the old type one frank mentioned. In theory you can fit any gearbox as long as you have the shafts and flywheel/starter motor to suit. if you can find out more about what its from we(maybe not me i'm not as knowledgeable as others on here) might be able to...

    good point, there are such things as drift tyres and drift wheels which i dont use the rest of the time too :) i think the bm will be less trouble than the sierra and will be easier to drift... but i still kinda fancy the silly rusty cvh smoker cause its the under dog... i think that comes from...

    yeah but then i have to do the swap and bother to fix the rust on the sierra lol and it'll still have less power than the bimmer has stock. the mods required will negate the insurance difference too :( but tyres and rims will be more common to fit the sierra i think And i just thought... if...

    i dont know the codes for them but what year of car did that come off of? and engine size? I've got a 1995 micra running a 2001 gearbox, not too much work to swap things around if you know what you want.

    do you think if i have 15" alloys and 35mm lowering springs i would need arches rolled?!!

    Rivet on arches can be done yeah or mega stretch lol. You'll need stiff springs though as I say or you'll chew tyres up on the arches even if the bolt ons cover the tread up.
