Robo's K10

[Robodestro]

So this is now my third micra a nice little base spec 4 speed k10

I haven't done much to it yet but;
Striped out all of the sound deadening
k11 1.0 front dampers with some k11 cut springs
k10 front springs cut in the rears
Polybushed rear damper mounts to the body, this pretty much stopped all the bouncing from the cut springs in the back. 90 shore D pretty strong stuff
K11 Sr alloys

Gonna try and fit most of k11 front suspension, brakes and steering rack but that will probably come in time.

Its got 80k and seems to have very little rust on it, 2 owners and guy before me had it since '94 so he must have looked after it, the interior is mint too

Looks tidy and think the sr alloys suit it

was just out playing in the snow and gave the car to a ditch, no damage though
but i took my seat apart and cut away at the foam and re-enforced the bolsters, definatly holds you in place now. Didn't even move going down the ditch

micras are tanks, i totaled a corsa in my k11, didnt even dent the bumpers, even though

Thats f*****g scary, I carry my kids in my k10 Might be time for a new car.

But they are ramming the micra against a stationary object if your gonna get rammed at the lights or something the energy will push the car although still causing some/ a lot of damage no where near as that but if a car is in front of you it could be similar?

The volvo is also using a ramp to get above bumper level too....but I'm lowered a fair bit which could take my bumper out of the equation. Obviously I have thought about the structural integrity of my vehicle before but to see it so graphically illustrated is something else entirely

Or a primera

 

[Robodestro]

or a volvo?

 

[MicrAde]

or a volvo?

How dare you!! Had a primera a while ago and loved it. IF I were to replace my k10 it would more than likely be a primera, would love a P10 but getting a little rare

 

[Robodestro]

Volvo for carrying the kids about? Primeras are pretty cool though
