Im not using the Micra any more, but still own it and will do for a few years. As someone else is using it i took the wheels off so they didnt get kerbed as they are in mint condition and only a year old. I have looked at the prices for them new, and am sure i didnt pay that much for them. They...

Hi there, if and when the work starts to flood in again i was thinking of swapping the micra for a Toyota Glanza 1.3 turbo (Starlet import) But at 4k for a new 1998 import seems a tad expensive. Im thinking it would be a lot cheaper to drop a turbo a 1.3 K11 and have the same results for a...

Both windows keep falling of the runners (two door) Temporarily fixed them knowing they will come of again which they now have. Problem is getting the parts, going 2nd hand i would imagine they are all going to be crap? Is this a servicable part as nothing actually looks worn:confused:

My daughter set this up, she says its the way of the future, me being an old git i have no idea :( http://www.facebook.com/SouthCoastShine/photos_stream

As im turning my K11 into a 'van' ive had to ditch the parcel shelf that had the factory speakers in it. Im a carpenter/kitchen fitter by trade so the build wont be a problem. Just wondered if anyone has done it on here? The place of my choice is the handle/cubby hole in the rear of a two door...

Is 330 to a full tank about right? I am fully laden at all times too. Quite suprising how it goes on the motorway, can cruise at 70-80 no worries, just a bugger if you come to an incline and have to slow before trying to speed up again, takes an age!

Mrs wants to learn to drive so may keep it for a bit, but she will want a 4 door for the grandkid:rolleyes: I have my navara for work again now as the micra wont fit all my tools into it. I know it may sound mad, but i actually prefer driving a 12 year old Micra to a 5 year old top of the range...

Just working my way through the members pics and saw a black K10 i think it was with bucket seats. Im guessing they are standard as the have the same pattern as door cards and rear seat?

Drivers side pad is sticking and has warped the disc, if i brake on the motorway then drive off it feels like my tires are 50p bits:eek: untill the pad releases. Does the calipers just need a good clean and some copper grease or are they fooked? Where can i buy a set of decent grooved discs to...

No rev counter so no idea if im hurting the tiny engine, never given it that much stick, but i could be wrong. On motorway inclines it struggles if i slow for a truck to 60, it then takes an age in 5th to get back to 70. Is there a safe limiter built in the ecu, or what speeds can you do in each...

After spending an age reading some K11 blogs on increasing power from an NA engine, would i be right in thinking that this is the easiest way. Cold air feed. Performance exhaust and manifold. (with ctas that can be added for MOT) Camshaft from the 1.3 engine. Quality engine and gearbox oil...

Some of you may have seen some of my posts on the later TB problems, wouldnt idle when cold in the morning, wouldnt rev properly and had to feather the throttle to stop it stalling and warm up, once warm it was driveable but would stall when i stopped, once up to full operating temperature it...

I just read elsewhere that the micra engines are quite airflow restricted, and that to change to a primera air box and change the exhaust or get rid of the cat/cats can result in quite a large increase in power for little money. What breathing mods are there for a 2000 K11? Cant afford a new...

I have a 2000 K11 and need a new TB, is it just a standard 1.0 i can fit or is there one that will improve performance/

It was folded up and tucked near the throttle pedal. EDIT; Pic aint great, it looks like a lead for the back of a radio, its proper nissan spec, not after market cable, just wondering what optional extra it could be for?

Whats the best option, get a new dash from the scrappy (would i be able to keep my speedo for correct mileage) or add one of those bolt on ones? Thought my model would have had one, all the ones on youtube have rev counter :mad:

Not sure if i should be posting this, but like youtube always does it leads you miles away from where you were. Was looking at turbo micras and ended up coming across this. 10 mins long and not the greatest recording, but the road! its like something off GT5 on the PS3

Anyone tried this and got a pro finish? I can get a local place to do the rears for about 100£ wondering if i could save a few pennies and do it myself. Im a carpenter by trade, so good with my hands, not sure how i would get on with this though:eek...

A few days ago someone put up some pics of their micra, i think they were clear in one pic, then only the top half was clear? Also on youtube i have seen some that look like they may be led but normal colour....just a more modern looking light. Anyone got links to updated k11 rear lights? I...

Got my 2nd hand one and the mechanic said it doesnt fit. On the gearbox it says 2000 nissan micra 1.0, but mine has a crank sensor in the bell housing and an earth lead on it:eek: Its like my micra has full electrics on the box and others donto_O
