Okay brilliant. Cheers mate. I'll look out for some Corsa rears if not some Polo Coilovers or something and modify the mounts to fit.

Hiya. My brother is getting married later in the year and he's obsessed with Micras. Instead of go karting I thought about a trackday at Lydden hill. We have a 1.4 2001 Micra and was planning on getting another. I just wanted some advice really on the best budget track suspension etc? I was...

Oh cool. Well let me know price etc. Need ASAP so chuck me a pic and price for super duper fast shipping. Cheers mate.

PM me some pictures matey and if it will fit a 2001/2002 or at least a 4 coil 998 engine then happy days. Particularly the key I'm interested in seeing the chip. Does the receiver swap easy enough as most people sell with the barrel? Cheers.

Cheers matey! So what ya got!?

Thanks guys. This one is 0 261 206 500 Seen others identical even one that is 501 but just hard to know what differences you might find!

Thank you very much guys. Bought nothing yet. Just gonna try a repair if not will need everything asap. I take it the immob box and ECU look for a common signal from key?

51 plate. Bosch Motronic ECU. 4 coils, blue chip. What exactly will I need to swap? Sorry for the blunt message super busy and faulty ECU following previous post!

Any idea where to get them? K11 Micra non start. Srrange buzzing all the time. Engine Control relay. Replaced still the same. Put a 12v from battery to one of the pins on the relay that goes to whatever the relay is powering and the buzzing stops car starts. Cut the wire buzzing stops and...

:laugh::laugh::laugh: Seems I may have offended some. OK yes you may own a faster car then a VR6 Golf but by your own admission it's not a Micra now is it? fwn The disscussion was between MY 1.6 Golf and MY Micra. I bought the Micra as it's cheap and they are damned good little cars for what...

OK let's put it this way. Golf 1.6 V 1.3 Micra, Golf far more fun and rips the Micra on a slip road on a motorway. I know this because I have done it. That said they are both slow cars and the Mica's going and a VR6 engine dropped into the Golf. (Y) Anyone want the speaker rings?

If anyone wants these PM me and when the cars sold they're available!

The 0-60 on the auto/manual is no different and the auto keeps up with the manual all the way to 60. I work on Nissans day in day out. I assume it's the Nissan box, very good boxes in all fairness. As I said, to 40 the Micra gets off quicker as do the manual 1.3's. After the the Golf just leaves...

:laugh: Micra in all fairness has the Golf til about 40MPH then the Golf just owns. Once they're both moving the golf will out pull it round any corner in the right gear. On the motorway even the 1.6 Golf absolutely dominates, it loved sitting at 100 and would sit there ADL, the Micra won't...

Cheers lads. Golf is heavier but would leave this standing. Has a lot more torque and some head work and some lumpier cams so it doesn't idle properly. :laugh: But would have left it standard. Got all my speakers in, just the sub and amp to do. Flipping rattly cars tho aren't they? Rocker...

Not that I condone this at all but GPS blockers that you can get on the internet that plug into the ciggarette lighter for power will temporary stop these devices working. They will assume it's parked near a metal building or something and has been left there. Or just do what we did at...

What year is that from? You talking 1.8T from the MK4 or the 1.8 from pre MK3? At 250 I'll go with a MK2 8v 1.8? It's a heavy lump, will RUIN the handling on the Micra and gonna have fun trying to fit it. Infact, I don't even know if it will fit with the box. If it does I'd imagine...

Haha do the top speed everywhere. If my sister wasn't set on an auto I'd have just chucked in a manual box. Oh well, gotta be something good about Autos? Nah don't think there is. Especially the boxes on Micras, I HATE the way it changes gear. :laugh:

Some may remember the controversial thread I made on Micra's once about how much I disliked them. It got deleted. :laugh: Anyway, since joining I've become a qualified mechanic, worked on about 1000 too many Micra's and since my insurance rocketed and I want my Golf off the road to respray...
