OK, I'll have a look, If there's such little difference, I don't get why people even have adjustable panhard rods
On car adjustable... looks cool... brand new not rusty... get to put NodSpeed stickers on my car haha.
I got one because it's the right way to do it.

For a 40mm drop i wouldn't worry too much. I've lowered mine 40mm and you can hardly notice that the back wheels have moved.
It's not really noticeable and i don't find it effects the way it drives.
 
fitted tommys splitter and put the old trims back on his car, all i done was grease up the runners on my window and put in the k&n panel filter i won off liam on facebook, went to take a few photos after too

Because 1 degree of difference in the track can make a big difference to handling.
You wont notice if you dont know what you're looking but for those that you will physically see and feel a difference to cornering capability

Either way the panhard rod axle is a flawed design. As are the load compensator valve things K11 have
 
Just finished fitting a small 2M Ham Radio into the car. I found that having the car stripped out gives a nice little gap just above the black box for the airbag (just below the ashtray). I hope it's well RF shielded!!
 
The mrs micra went in for mot today, straight through , no advisories.
Had a weld on the front cross member before the mot, noticed it the other day, only about an inch. Did notice though that it was caused by the splash shield holding water against the beam, design fault maybe ? Mine doesn't have one, came off in the smack she had before I bought her, cross member last time I looked....perfect. A lesson to be learnt maybe???? make sure yours is not doing the same.
 
Been driving for a week or so now with no engine problems (cutting out at 4k revs) I have noticed that if I take her up to 4k slowly...no problems. If I slam her to 4k .....bang, the problems back? stop for 10 seconds....problem gone.
H701 did mention this TPS sensor, is this sounding likely considering the symptoms???? Also, where is it??

Too my eyes it looks like what your describing could be a fuelling issue?

Running ok but under hard throttle under fuelling ect?

My 2pence :)
 
Someone I know has a primera that they are probably going to scrap soon, are there any nice parts/components that I can take off of for my facelift k11?
 
Apologies for being so pic heavy

Not today but over the last week.
Following a colision with a hedge mostly due to wiltshires ####ty roads, car was straightened out within 18hrs thanks to the old man n my brothers. Have since proceeded with some minor alterations and much photo whoring. I think she looks better now in some ways. Just gotta keep an eye out for a decent replacement wing n then gunna spray both bumpers black.
