Squarepants 1.3lx daily nail

[squarepants]

currently my 5th micra (if you dont count the 2 donor micras i had lol)

i sold all my rare micra bits, and most other stuff went on my last silver micra. so got to start all over agian from fresh

i paid £375, tax till next year onit! 10months test. needs a pair of wings and the door has a dent. door doesnt bother me, wing will get done. it runs spot on and theres nothing up with it engine wise.

so far i fitted my k&n 57i filter off my old micra.

painted the grill satin

and advanced the timining by turning the dizzy back.

if anyone reads fast car mag, the red civic project they have (project kanjo) i want to do somthing simlair to that.

Splitter suits it nice. Might have to scout me an Ibiza..

 

[squarepants]

fitted my new exhaust. its a cherry bomb, custom chrome racing backbox (all stainless) just looks like an ashley comp exhaust. fitted a de-catted my 2nd cat.

its abit louder, and pops and crackles. but its not loud engough, so iam gonna fit a 4" jap backbox.

oh, also raised my bonnet, i used x4 micra upper rear seat belt washers, and long-ish 13mm bolts. i quite like it lol. will get pics soon.

 

[Stani1029]

What manifold you got on there?

 

[squarepants]

got a standard manifold, knocked the cat out yesterday and it bangs loads now and sounds raspy so iam happy with my exhaust now

 

[squarepants]

finally got some seats, only standard impreza ones, got them for £40quid off a local facebook french car group. have saxo brackets on atm tho.

had fixed ones before and they hurt my back and i didnt find them comfy. so had to have recliners this time.

pic of my exhaust & the front with rasied bonnet.

[OliDropDead]

[johnbr6]

p11-144 sideskirts will be cheaper and they are more common (Y) looks good so far.

 

[squarepants]

done a few more bits

• painted my wheels white
• fitted some suzuki baleno side skirts
• got my other scooby seat welded in
• got so base model interior mirror blankers and window seals (as they are on door card on non poverty specs) tidys it up abit
• got some perspex to make door cards, also got base model speaker covers and the 1 door pocket they come with

dan

 

[karlj]

Those skirts look good, easy fitment or a lot of cutting?

 

[squarepants]

didnt need cutting it would seem baleno sills are same length as a micras lol.

 

[karlj]

That's handy

 

[squarepants]

Had to buy a new boot becuase i slammed my boot and put the window through lol. So now have a facelift boot off a celabration with little lip spoiler looks better. Also fitted jap size plates.

 

[squarepants]

some new pics of the shagger

 

[jcoopz10]

you painting the car black?

 

[r-reg-sr]

dip d in tarr effect yes

 

[squarepants]

no lol, just front end. tried to hide the rust that was on the wings....

done my wheels gloss black aswell now. i prefer them rather than the white.

 

[squarepants]

 

[squarepants]

now have clocks with a rev counter out of an auto slx from scrappy.

suprised when i fitted them the rev counter worked straight away, plug and play so was happy with that

How much did they charge you for the clocks?
I was tempted to get a set but unsure what prices they go for

 

[squarepants]

i gave a tenner, but seen them sell for 30quid before.

 

[squarepants]

brought this steering wheel with boss kit a few days ago. should be here this week.

 

[squarepants]

managed to get some headlight protectors from the scrappy...

also my new splitter, it only needed shortening, the curve is bang on with a micra bumper. i could've removed my toe eye and had it higher and could've screw'd it from underneath for a cleaner look. but it was less fuss to fit it like this lol. i know it needs painting! lol... it also has a cover on the passanger side (that you can see in the pic)

the splitter does cover up the 2nd toe eye, so the cover is usefull so i can get to the 2nd toe if needs be.

anyone guess what its off?

 

[johnbr6]

I have no idea why don't you tell us

 

[squarepants]

i will leave it for abit until people guess

it does look like a honda civic mugen lip tho. witch i do like.

 

[squarepants]

heres a better pic

 

[prefaceliftlife]

some kind of mitsy?

 

[karlj]

N16?

 

[squarepants]

good guess, but no

its not a japanese car... some of there cars can be fitted with evo parts tho!

 

[MicrAde]

Proton

 

[prefaceliftlife]

on of the carltons?

 

[squarepants]

Proton

yep, it was removed off simlair to the one pictured below, but the uk version, dont think there called wira's in the uk. :S the names for proton's confuse me lol

 

[squarepants]

got my steering wheel fitted, and coverd the type r logo up with carbon wrap (i dont like it but looks better than the badge) steering wheel feels so much better than standard. the wheel seems to be decent engough quality but the boss kit is rubbish. it was £60 tho! so carnt say much lol

also painted the lip black.

 

[johnbr6]

looks good man, steering wheel is the business

little request: can you take pictures of around the rear windows? I've got pop out windows for my k11, which didn't have them from factory ,,, meaning none of the locating holes were put in for the trims and the hinges etc

thx man
