what did you do to your micra today ?

[Dougyledds]

Pulled off a mashed up hanger

So now the exhaust is resting on the anti roll bar till i get a new one -_-

At this rate im tempted to say £650 buys the micra for me to hopefully invest in a new one lol

 

[hoopdub]

ordered some hub caps, swaped a pair of tyres from a 6.5 inch rims to a 6 inch rims bout it realy oh drove to work with 2 sets of wheels and tyres in it, RAKE!!!!

 

[AJC]

WDID? Fitted my modded GA Airbox, made up a crankcase breather pipe and made a bracket to hold the cold air feed. Took about two hours to do all in, after having to dodge downpours. Makes the 1.4 a bit more responsive and gives a pit more poke

 

[markbognor]

Why have you poured custard on your cam cover?

 

[Dougyledds]

What mark said!

 

[Warpa]

Im liking that lucifer, how much did you pay for the discs and is that green stuff pads as i need an upgrade soon. Dont know if its the pic, but if you give the drums a spray i did mine with hamerite satin to keep it factory and they come out great, kept the calipers silver also for a factory finish. Love the wheels, prefer them to mine as i like a deep dish.

 

[k11_whore]

Lol actually does look like custard haha

Hello mate, can't remember price of disks and green stuffs, but will find out and let you know, callipers have been sprayed in satin black, rear drums yet to be done, loads left to do on this car yet, ongoing as and when we get the time between other jobs.

Nice looking disc that, similar to my nav, did them in silver

So thought id do the micra to match

 

[karlj]

WDID: got a new tax disc holder and gave the inside a good clear out.... I know very ground breaking

 

[Dougyledds]

 

[Warpa]

Get some chrome studs, nuts look cheap

 

[Dougyledds]

i want some white studs lol, can you see why i posted it tho? still having arch problems

 

[k11_whore]

Think I sourced the leak after ripping everything out when got home, when I press my finger against the nipple sticking out it drips quicker, tube and cannister are bone dry just the wee nipple what could it be?

 

[Squizza]

Had my car lowered 80/60mm

 

[hoopdub]

pressing the nipple makes it leak, sounds pregnant

 

[frank]

that would explain the weak bladder eh

 

[hoopdub]

be baby micras all over the place now

Done mine today as i had exactly the same problem its water dripping in through the scuttle panel and dropping down into the blower. I had also previously sealed under there but needed more silicone to completely stop it. I used about half a tube of silicone to make sure and completely covered anywhere there was the slightest chance of water getting through. I think the little 'nipple' is just a locating peg as i took 2 of the nuts off (couldn't get to the third one) and pulled it gently down to release the trapped water in there.

 

[k11_whore]

That all sounds so wrong haha

 

[lucifer]

Roll and flare them, its the only way to get clearance with low offset wheels, nice wheel fitment though.

 

[SK193]

Gave it a good wash and clean ready for Japfest on the weekend

 

[K10 SHED]

Fitted a new fuel filter, got my hands dirty for all of 5 mins.

 

[karlj]

May have accidentally bought some more wheels

Think i may have to mate, as my mallet and heatgun method today hasnt really worked, im shy of £35 tho tbh, thats how poor i am

 

[lee k0011]

Been do'n some more body work today,This is my biggest task paint wise but all seems to be go'n well
Started with this..

And ended up with this

 

[airmike]

Bought some 13x7 steelies:

 

[markbognor]

^ Cool. I bet they would look the business with base K11 center trims.

 

[LegoJeep]

WDID? Wished very hard for my micra to be well again :/

[K10 SHED]

New asda 10/40 semi synth and an oil filter change today.

The "tappy" MA10 is almost silent again with fresh oil.

 

[karlj]

WDID: decided it was time to make a start on making Charlie look moody

Forgot to take the actual picture with my phone so it's a photo of a photo

 

[MrMigs08]

WDID? Snapped 2 sockets and 2 socket converters trying to undo the bolts in the turbo manifold...

And unvieled my new micra to MSC

Blog up soon!!

And wondering how to bore the inside of my wheels as nobody seems to be able to do it around my area!
Thinking halfords spacers may work though
Honda Del Sol Alloys!

Need some smaller profile tyres forem! But will completely recon em!

And this picture may not seem much, but from what i understand the micra was garaged for the last 19 years ?

Check out the condition of this underside under this thin layer of dirt/seal?

All the undersides red paint is intact, and where objects have hit the body, the cleanest metal i have ever seen lies there, full paint/underseal job is a priority on this beast!!

450 Quid and an apserlute minter, cant go wrong!
Except now, i have a driveshaft on its way out after the boot split :<.

Fun times eh!

 

[hoopdub]

ripped the stupid rubber bit from around the screen on my tailgate, and it does not look wrong without it

 

[Dougyledds]

I did a ***** load today! check out my blog haha

 

[karlj]

WDID: got Charlie up to date with her jabs £150 lighter but full service history

 

[frank]

[MrMigs08]

Blimey thata biggen

*Imagines little boost big boost setup *

 

[frank]

Blimey thata biggen

*Imagines little boost big boost setup *

low boost high comp still, but this one will spin far slower (and generate less heat ) twill be for track use only i guess

 

[MrMigs08]

Running the Corsa piston hybrid CG? What RPM will that big thing spool up at

Someone needs to try master and make a K11 ST edition of our beloved beast

Although switching from an SC to a turbo at different levels of boost, sounds like a good challange for someone

WDID!:Aquired a driveshaft!! Now to learn to replace one

 

[frank]

Running the Corsa piston hybrid CG? What RPM will that big thing spool up at

yes, and about 4 k at a guess lol just right for the 1/4 mile hopefully
then run it as a "vortech" for daily driving http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/
