Hi Yom, Thanks for the tip !. I need some new tyres soon and may give these a try.

Hi Shay, Welcome to this website and congratulations on buying your micra as a first car. I hope you have many thousands of miles of happy motoring together !. Under the bonnet there should be a metal plate with letters & numbers stamped on it. This will include information like the vehicle ID...

Hi Jezza, Sorry to hear about your experience with the Nissan dealer... but glad that your micra got your family home OK. Yes, the micra rocks !.

Hi Micragirl, Congratulations !. I like the look of your new car.... It certainly looks much more sporty than the standard swift !. What's the interior like ?. Are the seats really comfortable ?. I hope you have many many years of happy motoring with it.

Hi Jezza, They are available for around $130 from Nissan Dealers... I couldn't find any aftermarket one available in Australia. Some UK based sellers do sell them on ebay occassionally.

Hi DJ, The following company sell the similar IMPUL kit for the micra/march... Perhaps they may be able to source this one as well ? http://www.japanparts.com

Hi Robster, This article developed by "AlexB" should answer your questions. http://www.micra.com.au/technical-articles/cg13de-throttle-body-resoldering-guide.php

Hi Ed, Sorry the gearbox in 2Lt (including SSS) Pulsars is totally different to the micra gearbox. None of their parts would be interchangable. It's possible to install the gearbox from an N14/N15 1.6 Ltr pulsar into a micra... Cisco did this with his Blue Monster. The bellhousing etc. fits...

Yes, that new Ralliart Colt looks like fun..... It would definately be much better than the standard colt which in my opinion is very ordinary. It's good to see that there's now a growing number of new sporty hatches available on the Australian market. Some of the others I can think of are ...

Hi Toma, I would suggest checking the brake pads, brake pipes & adjusting the hand brake cable. It may also be worth flushing the cooling system and putting in fresh coolant ?. Checking the adjustment of the clutch pedal matches the specs in the Haynes manual. Congratulations on reaching...

Hi Yom, The 4-2-1 Hurricane headers are definately still available... I bought some recently. They cost $400 and can be ordered through any good exhaust place or direct from the manufacturer "Liverpool Exhaust". These are excellent quality extractors (they even come pre-painted in blue heat...

Hi John, My impression is that the checks usually conducted by nissan dealers are pretty basic and more-or-less just confirm that the various sensors within and attached to the motor are working. Well that was my experience anyway.... The sensors may be functioning (because the car does start...

Yes, the motoring press are reporting a large drop in the sales of 4WDs & large cars recently due to higher petrol prices. So consumer behaviour, attitudes and priorities are definately changing. I think I read somewhere that last month the Toyota Corolla was the best selling vehicle in...

Crikey !. Well spotted Yom. You must have the eyes of an eagle.... Maybe "eM" had something to do with this illustration... ;) She may have created this picture for an industry project as part of her studies ??? That looks suspiciously like her car "Styln" !.

I attended this event in 2003. It's great fun with lots of awesome classic sedan, sports & racing cars competing. If you guys are planning on going I will definately meet up with you there.

Hello Matt, The gearbox in all 1300cc models (Super S, LX & SLX) is identical. Well for the 1995-1997 UK built models sold in Australia anyway.

Hi Toma, Interesting results. The effect of premium vs unleaded seem to vary from car to car... My personal experience is that premium doesn't make any difference at all to my micra... so I always just use standard unleaded. I generally get around 600kms from a tank before the warning light...

Hi micra-girl, I suspect these are from a late model "face-lift" micra (with the larger headlights). I don't think they will fit your car unless the bumper is custom modified to suit.

Hi Henry, The clutch pedal in my car was also significantly higher than the brake pedal before I installed a new clutch recently.... With the new clutch installed and the correct cable/pedal adjustment the clutch pedal has now ended up at the same height as the brake pedal. Yes, I think as...

Hi MrMilk, If you wish to keep the airbag function I am afraid it's almost impossible (and also extremely dangerous) to fit an airbag steering wheel designed for another model. To fit an another steering wheel you will need to forget about the airbag feature. The HKB brand of "boss kit"...
