    For Sale - Side Repeaters

    I got the lightly smoked indicators this weekend & fitted them yesterday - they were a doddle to fit & they look good. I'm on the hunt now for some alloys (with tyres hopefully) & some lowering springs - then that will probably be it as far as exterior mods are concerned (though a better...

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    I've already got a Momo steering wheel as it came from my old car which didn't have an airbag - hence no problems/headaches fitting it! I need to find out if I can fit a different non-airbag wheel to my car without invalidating my insurance/bumping up the premium by huge amounts or creating big...

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    I got an OMP strut brace yesterday. I've now fitted it to my car & can report that I had no problems fitting it to my power steering Micra. One of the power steering unions (by the drivers side strut tower) does end up very close to the brace but that's easily remedied by bending the bracket the...

    k11 97 SR bucket seats

    I'm in Leeds - either Armley or Horsforth depending if I'm at work or not. My email address is pauluspaolo[at]hotmail[dot]com if you'd like to contact me to arrange something but I'm not sure about them & don't want to muck you about! Also I'm busy each evening this week, & all day saturday, as...

    I'd like the smoked set please - I can't send a pm (not a full member .... yet) so could I ask you to email me at: pauluspaolo[at]hotmail[dot]com? I can pay by paypal/cash/cheque - whichever is best for you? Many thanks :)

    k11 97 SR bucket seats

    Sorry to ask a possibly daft question, & I don't mean to be rude, but just how much comfier/bucketier/sportier/firmer/grippier etc are these seats compared to those in a standard Micra? I'm tempted to buy these seats (& I'm local to you so could pick them up) but it seems a bit pointless...

    Insurance quote from Adrian Flux

    I'm 43 & insured through Adrian Flux. I used to own a kit car years ago & I've just sort of stuck with them - they've always given me competitive quotes. Before the Micra (I've had it less than a week) I drove a 1990 Audi coupe quattro which cost me £315/year fully comp with protected no claims...

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    Thanks for that Swiper - have just ordered an OMP one from eBay so will let you all know how I get on fitting it. Let the modding commence :D !!!

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    Any chance of a picture Robert - I dont want to spend £90 on the Whiteline brace whn the OMP costs roughly half that! My car's the facelift also (1998 "S" reg) with the twin chrome plated "nostrils" in the bonnet. Many thanks :)

    k11 march rocker cover

    Rev counter - or speedo/rev counter display? Probably won't have a rev counter but there's no harm in asking is there?? :) I was going to ask if it had a rev counter (probably doesn't) but I think I'm going to try & fit a separate/aftermarket one as I don't want to muck about with the...

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    As I said in my initial post there seems to be some confusion as to whether the OMP/Whiteline strut braces will fit. I've emailed the seller of an OMP brace (on eBay) & asked if he knows - I obviously don't want to buy one if it's not going to fit! Anyway here's a picture of the offending...

    Just saying "hello"

    Picked up my 1.3 K11 today - fun little car to drive & quite quick but my example has a very stiff gearchange :( I didn't notice this on the test drive so I'm hoping that it's not a gearbox problem. I'm hoping that the linkage may just need adjusting or lubricating! Anyone got any ideas??? I've...

    Strut brace clearance on a K11 with power steering

    Hi all, just got a 1300 K11 & I'm considering a few mods - one of which is to fit a front upper strut brace. However one of the power steering unions (that's what it looks like to me) is very close to the strut tower & looks as if it might get in the way of a strut brace. Has anyone fitted a...

    Just saying "hello"

    Thanks Phil - best of luck with the driving test (Y) Scrapyards are excellent places & I've spent many a happy hour in them looking for bits & pieces for all my various cars. Reminiscing a bit (like us old people do you know) I realise that I've had quite a few cars over the years - ones that...

    Hello - another new member here (am I the oldest on the forum?)

    Hello everyone :) I missed this part of the forum & actually introduced myself here in the K11 section: http://www.micra.org.uk/showthread.php?p=215566#post215566 But to recap I'm a 43 year old chap who's currently waiting for a phone call from a local car trader telling me that the black...

    Just saying "hello"

    Many thanks for that Phil :) We probably paid quite a lot for the Micra but it's a 1 owner, low(ish) mileage 1.3GX with service history, power steering, sunroof, cd autochanger, leccy windows etc & will come with 12 months MOT & tax. My girlfriend is contributing towards the cost of the car...
