why are people selling up after only a few short months? sicckening

 

[karlj]

i'm not, i'm looking at buying lol

 

[Shaun]

Day 2 of the extended stud Mission:
I actually found this axle stand to be better than a bar between the studs... That and i didn't have one big enough! lol

My tool...

Leverage FTW!

One hub done!

Obviously it pokes out a bit too much as the car is jacked at an angle!

The Rest of the car has these nuts all around that's why i can't continue yet...

Basically it gets easier as it goes on... however i had to stop at one wheel as i ran out of stock open ended nuts so i can only carry on when i have tyres on the alloys so i can do the front axle first then move onto the back. fingers crossed it will be dry throughout the week but no where near as hot! - Very sweaty job lol

What does everyone think of the finished product? (bar rubber)

 

[Guy]

Very, very nice Shaun (Y).

 

[k11_whore]

Il still be buying a micra when sold this one, just to many problems with it, want a 1.3 anyway or a k12

 

[Shaun]

Very, very nice Shaun (Y).

Ta! that gonna measure that little bit of thread tomorrow and see what spacers i can get away with. it looks incredibly cramped in there with the brakes anyhow. :laugh:

 

[k11_whore]

Looking good shaun

 

[Guy]

Cool, reckon you could use 10mm spacers easy.

 

[will930]

Nice shaun i have a whole bag of stock nuts if i can get them to you!

And refitted all my dash etc and rerouted my aierial for a better signal and seems to have worked!

After refilling the coolant it idles a little lower than normal! So ill be keeping an eye on it!

[will930]

Also damaged my sun strip with the dash! :-(

 

[frank]

shortened the rear springs a tad more :grinning: these stock cut springs are too damn stiff for my liking but will do for next weeks hillclimb, then the softer matiz ones will go back in

 

[frank]

and shoved a length of yellow fibreglass rod (arrowed) from inside the bottom of the bumper, up and over inside the top of the bumper, and down to the bottom corner on the other side (basically spreading the bumper outwards at the sides) to keep the tyrepoke equal on these new wheels when looking from behind

 

[r-reg-sr]

oooooooooh lots going on !

wishbone driver side, tomoro passenger side,couldnt get the ball joint splitter to fit cause the drive shaft-untill i turn'd the splitter the other way round

 

[frank]

juggled some tyres around and fired the new deeper wheels on :grinning: may go for (red) colourcoded middles tbh

 

[Guy]

They look fantastic Frank. Colour coded middles would be really WIN .

 

[peposhi]

Franks, those wheels look mint!

Have you done them yourself? If yes - great craftsmanship!!!

 

[Seb_]

I love the contrast red / black (mudguards, rear and side bumper strip, doors handles, wheels center, boot handle)on your car, Keep it like this Frank !

 

[r-reg-sr]

look very fashionable, nightmares after the spin out?:grinning:

 

[markbognor]

That's ace Frank.

 

[Daniel]

Drove it for the last time :down:

 

[Shaun]

Cleaned the rear end whilst the boot was off.

 

[baguete]

Started the March SuperS conversion :laugh:

 

[Shaun]

Put the boot back on with Will and a friend of mine...

 

[karlj]

Came to an arrangement yesterday :grinning:

 

[euro_micra]

Thats a good paint job Shaun, well done, mine's utter crap


Today I wire-brushed off nearly all of the surface-rust from the chassis rails, floor and sills and coated them in underseal, I'm getting prepped for winter early this year.

 

[frank]

its more of a "shiny alloy" rather than chrome finish tbh, and it has a very high pigment....so 1/2 a can and no primer

 

[Guy]

What do you use to slick the tyres Frank?

 

[karlj]

Burn outs :laugh:

 

[karlj]
