That's the exact stuff I bought. Confirms it. I am **** at painting lol. Oh well maybe I can get someone to do it better now I have the paint. I will also need more of the lacquer but I think getting someone who can paint to do it is a better idea. Thanks for the reply.

That paint job looks great. As you know my Micra is same year and same colour. I had a bump at the front driver side bumper was scraped and gouged was a reverse error on my part scraped a wall. My question is. what colour code did you use? I used BW3 G Tornado and the match was not as close as...

Brilliant, thanks, please bear me in mind. What sort of price? You can easily PM me with info. I am in Lancashire, not sure how far away you are. What sort of difference would the box alone make? I would be happy if it just gave the noise a boost lol.

Wish I could do the work myself, I have no idea what I am doing, but I have a friend who is a very good and time served mechanic, who I will be asking for a lot of favours. I am not sure what exactly I will be doing yet as there are so many options and different opinions on what works/doesn't...

Lovely car!! Looks like my twin (almost). Mine is the "Activ" variant. (no idea what the difference between variants are to be honest). At 80 quid a steal. I had mine given to me In January this year!! (2019) from a very kind friend, at the time it had only done 24897 miles. I have now passed...

Brilliant. I love the extra sound these kits give. I am not expecting an increase in actual BHP having had some replies here and read up a little, I am also looking into having he ECU flashed. Thanks for your reply.

Started on cleaning up and spraying the wheels, ready for the new wheel trims which are on order. Didn't get every bit of rust off just did my best to get as much as I could off. These wheels are 17 years old, so I knew it wouldn't be perfect, but as I was putting trims on too, I just wanted...

Wow, is everything you need included in that kit on eBay? Just a thought from what Ash said, could this be turned around so it's not running behind the battery? Just thinking if there's not much airflow there if I can switch this to the drivers side, I might just grab this.

Thanks mate watching this now!! And I am loving the blower now it's working properly!!

Thank you for that!! I will look into this.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I think they are the DIY ones. The ones I have seen on eBay come as a kit that you just swap out for the original filter box. Around a ton in price. What about those tuning chip things? I just want a little extra umph.

Updated pics after a bit of a spray and a polish!

As you're all aware I am a complete novice, I have heard about fitting one of these. replacing the original intake box. What is the benefit of this and is this simple to do? Also is there a particular one people on here would recommend? Many thanks. Lee

Brilliant. I still have the original that came with the car, but you never know when you may need a back up!

Finally had some decent weather!! Had the part for weeks, just fitted it and the blower is again working on all settings. Thank you for that video link it really helped. AND I am pleased I fixed a part on my car, for me that's a big achievement. (My first ever car repair) Thanks again.

Ash, great reply thanks for these videos. I will be watching them several times. (Especially the resistor one)!! The sills on the advisory "Getting weak" I do not know precisely what this means (apart from the obvious), but Hope it's easy to either weld or replace?? The car was given to me...

Next Oil change I will give this a go. I have been told on here before 10w 40 is better and by a family member who had a micra that semi was better than fully. Thanks Nesty(y)

Arrived this morning, will be spending some time reading this along with Youtube videos before attempting anything. Haynes has the "difficulty rating" of spark plugs at 3 spanners. as I am complete beginner, I think I should get some personal demos too before I attempt it. Looking forward to...

Yep, this was one reason I had a Micra in mind as you say cheap to run and maintain. Now I have been on here I also see they can be looked after relatively easy. (Compared to other makes/models. I do use Youtube for a lot of info so it will definitley be another source of help along with Haynes...
