I've got a 1998 1.3 gx facelift (I think) with power steering & I've fitted an OMP strut brace (sprayeed it black to match the rest of the car) without any problems. I've no idea whether the Sparco one will fit or not ... sorry. Pictures here: http://www.micra.org.uk/showthread.php?t=18221 -...

Sorry Napster, I wasn't trying to imply that the Micra's a poor car (it most certainly isn't) or that you hadn't had, & aren't still having, fun in yours. I like mine but of the cars I've had, & I've had a fair few, it ranks as "good fun" rather "great fun". I suppose you could say a car's...

I agree with some of what you say but before the Micra I drove a 1989 Audi coupe quattro - it was streets ahead of the Micra in terms of performance, handling, solidity, comfort, looks, practicality (it could seat 4/5 in comfort with a bigger boot), fun etc. If I had the choice, & was travelling...

I've got a 1998 ("S" reg, pre facelift) 1.3 GX which comes well spec'd - electric windows, power steering, drivers side airbag, central locking etc, in fact the only things it lacks are alloys & a rev counter. To be honest it's a nice little car, surprisingly quick off the mark (though I don't...

:laugh:

Many thanks for both replies - much appreciated :) Hi Phil, sorry but I haven't fitted the steering wheel fitted I'm afraid :( - I'd love to go Momo but I just can't decide whether doing away with the airbag is a good idea or not. Hopefully I won't ever have a serious crash but with the...

Hi all, I've found a nice set of 14" Seat Arosa alloys on eBay & was wondering if anyone knows whether they'd fit my Micra without any problems? The pcd (4 x 100) is the same but will there be any problems with the bore - which is, presumably, the big central hole in the wheel that allows...

Hi Solarice, I'd quite like these - are there enough for both front wishbones (presumably 4 bushes = 2 per wishbone) or is it just the two in the picture? I'm not a full member so could you email me at pauluspaolo[at]hotmail[dot]com please? Many thanks :)

I'm not sure what filters would stop the windscreen clearing quicker - surely this is a heater/ventilation issue? The air filter filters the air that's entering the throttle body (to allow the correct air/fuel ratio) & has nothing to do with the heater/ventilation system. I don't think a...

Age: 44 (near as damnit :(!) Model: K11 1.3GX Engine size: 1.3 NCD: full - approx 20 years worth. Named driver: yes, my girlfriend's on the policy as a named driver. Points on licence: 3. Paying: £197ish - carried it over from my Audi (which cost me £300/year), so didn't have to pay...

Fantastic James - many thanks (Y)

I'd also like to know where to get Nismo stuff (not just engine mounts) from - I've looked on the Nismo website & can't see the Micra/March listed anywhere, also it seems to be American based :confused:?? Are there any other uprated bushes available for the Micra? I've looked on the Powerflex...

That sounds fine to me - can you let me know how much the postage will be please? I can pay with Paypal or a cheque (whichevr you prefer) when you get back to me with a total :)

How about £10 for the gear lever & the two gear linkage rods that run under the car (from base of gear lever to gearbox)? Can you let me know how much postage will be on top of that? My email address is: pauluspaolo[at]hotmail[dot]com Many thanks :)

I've just fitted one of these into my Micra (I bought it a couple of years ago from Halfords & used it in my old Audi quattro). I think it's a good unit - my Micra came fitted with a cd autochanger & a tape head unit. Unfortunately the autochanger is quite an old model & won't play mp3's hence...

Hi Curtis, could you send an email to: pauluspaolo[at]hotmail[dot]com - would like to discuss these wheels with you a bit more. Many thanks Paul :)

Did these ever sell & did you ever find out if they fit a 1998 K11 (PCD 4 x 100, offset 35 - 45)) - if so I could be interested. I live in Leeds, West Yorkshire btw. :)

No idea about the quality to be honest but the price doesn't seem too bad to me. I've not researched that deeply but getting the whole kit for under £100 seems to be a bit of a bargain to me - I'm sure I've seen one site that quoted approx £150 for timing chains alone!!! Of course that may be...

Here are my lightly smoked indicators fitted to the car - the darker of the two pairs on offer would probably have looked better but it was my choice to buy these & I've no complaints at all - it looks 100 times better than the standard orange jobbies :)

Have just replied to your email & sent payment. Cheers :)
