Off a Van out the scrap yard, paid £4 for it :D. I've sold the Micra now and now have moved up to a MX5 (want to jump on the drift bandwagon!!). I loved doing my Micra up and do miss it a lot! but a local guy has had it and he's into modding his cars as well so hopefully it should live on! In...

Thanks! no problems as of yet, although I am planning on getting a square plate and fixing it to the left :)

Hi guys! been a while since I've updated the build. I got bored of the ally's on plus they looked a touch chavvy so I thought I'd go for something a little more suited to the car. Pretty much purely by luck (but mainly my best mate owning a garage and knowing loads of people) we sources to...

Hi Noddie, I had a look at the thread; http://www.micra.org.uk/threads/f-s-rear-strut-brace.43769/ and will take one plain if you're ok to make some up at the end of the month? You ok for me to pay you over paypal? Thanks!

Lots of banging and swearing later on today most probably! I decatted the car a while back but thats blowing like **** so I've got to sort that today as well. I'm just going to cut off the old back box where it's welded to the pipe, make a shim then slide this back box over the current pipe...

Salvaged a noice stainless steel backbox from the scrappy today with the brackets already on thanks to a tip off :D, will be fitting asap!!

Ah maan Doug, you told me it was red! This colourblindness is taking the piss now! Pedo George gets a bit shy, he might make an appearance at a primary school near you soon :D

Right then guys, I know its been about 10 years since I updated the build but I've slowly been fettling away. Not done much other than strip the car out a bit more, fitted the bucket seats (need to get another harness for the passenger seat). Decatted the second cat on the car, fitted a deep...

No new mods for now but got a couple of shots of mine and my mates Micra's together. He's had his a couple of weeks now from standard and has already stripped it, put some bucket seats in, put a roll cage in and banged on some nice 13x8 steelies! very nice if you ask me! Micra fo lyf! ;)

Haven't uploads any photos of the actual car for a while so took some whilst the sun was out today :D also since I've last posted any photos of the car I've rolled the rear arches to give a bit more room for the back wheels (not that you can tell :(. ) New tow strap fitted; Worse for wear...

yeah its quite a big bit that comes off. where you can see the tow eye that bolts into the bottom of the car the rest of it bends 90 degrees up behind the wheel arch with further 3 bolts in it. you can't see it unless you take the side panel off but if you get your hand up there next time your...

Any luck with getting your towing eye out mate? My tow strap came today so put that on, havent got any photos, bloody crappo weather!! In other new I took noonoo the air induction / hoover intake off and salvaged a rather handy elbow to put on my air intake thus moving the air fitler to a more...

Yeah my car was up on a lift when I did mine. the bolts that hold on the rest of the tow eye are on the passenger side wheel arch about a foot up inside the arch but you can only get to it from underneath, it'll all make sense once you're under the car, just fiddly as hell to get to!!

I put about 5 screws into the lip to get it to sit nice n' tight! works treats now :). Man the tow hook is a nighmare to get off...took me about an hour! there are the two bolts that hold it onto the bottom of the car but a futher 3 that hold it to the inside of the wheel arch!! you have to push...

thanks! nar no trimming needed. it was dead easy to fit....literally just screwed it into the bottom of the bumper! the hardest part was taking the towing eye out as I'm putting a strap in....seriously fiddly!!

indeed it is mate...fits treats. got it for next to nothin from Mr scrap man n all! :D. I've had a look at your Micra on here before....very nice mate!

Still modding the car with a few bits here and there, Put an induction kit (ghetto) on the car with a few old bit's I had lying around, I'm going to be moving the filter to the end of the blue pipe soon rather than having it sitting right on top of the engine, Just need to go to the good ol'...

Sprayed a few bits n' bobs on the car today and personally think it looks much better than the girly chrome smile it was sporting previously! also looking at getting a splitter pretty soon, I'll be getting a laguna splitter from the scrappie for the time being but is it the Cupra R splitter that...

s'alrite mate. I fancy getting the flyeyes tint but the tape is a bit of temp solution until I get round to getting em tinted, also going to get some fogs lamps tinted as well eventually :D Never thought of that! Cheers I'm loving the Micra at the moment, Just looking forward to payday so I...

Been doing some more work on the Micra over the last couple of days. Since I last posted I have removed the black plastic trim on the side of the car, de-badged the car a bit, removed the air con system (there was no gas in it thank god!!) I haven't removed the air con motor because the belt...
