I recently changed both axles on my K11 and I didn't replace the oil seals on the gearbox, although I believe the factory manual I have recommends you do so. I have not lost any gearbox oil at all since which is nice because Red Line MT90 is expensive. Just take some care when inserting the...

I purchased my Micra for a daily driver around 6 months ago and my reasons were roughly as follows in a rough order of importance: Cheap to both purchase and run Apparently reliable 4x100 so I can expand my wheel collection Cheap Reasonable aftermarket support Trackable in fairly stock form

xsoarerx owns that car still I believe or at least he did. Yes the wheels are SSR MKIII and I believe they are 4x114.3 because the car has had a hub conversion of some sort done on it.

No idea about fitting the Corsa coilovers to a Micra but I thought I would say that those steelies (widened stock?) look great! How much did you widen them by? EDIT: My micra is moderately low, about 70mm to the frame when static and a bit less to the front swaybar. The sunken steelies make...

Sorry to hear about everyones cars. My Micra had 6" of water in it on Sunday night when it was parked up in Shepparton. Pushed it out of the water and pulled all the interior out, knocked 2 holes in the floor and left it overnight. Carpet smells a bit manky now but there doesn't seem to be...

Polarbear's original calculation is correct mate :). Backspace is not measured to where the tyre bead sits like wheel width is, it is measured to the extreme inner edge of the wheel which is generally 1/2" further in than the inner lip of the wheel. So a 8" wide wheel with zero offset will...

Thanks mate, a big fan of yours too! Been following your thread on JDMST. The car is on BC coilovers with all the sprin perches/collars taken out at the rear and all but one taken out at the front. Tucks a little at the rear and a bit more at the front :). Ride on the coilovers is okay even...

Tops idea for a thread. Here is a pretty poor pic of mine:

All these sites are in Japanese and you will have to use your friendly neighborhood parts importer to get the stuff here. Try using the Google toolbar or something similar to translate. Here is the link to Yahoo Auctions wheels with tyres...

As solarice says Yahoo Auctions is a good place to look but the overwhelming majority of small diameter SSRs are 4x114.3. With this in mind most of the Japanese sellers seem to bump up their prices 200% for 4x100 wheels due to their rarity. There are always plenty of micra fitment SSRs in 14"...

I bought mine for $2300 2 months ago. 1995 LX with 250,000kms. Car markets seem to vary a bit from state to state, but I don't think you overpaid a lot.

Welcome P Plate Micra driver :). I would vote against removing the mesh from the throttle body. I am willing to bet money that the purpose of the mesh is to trip the airflow through the throttle body/air flow meter to a fully developed turbulent flow. I am guessing that Nissan designed it...

Not sure. Probably going to go into Nissan tomorrow and if the cost isn't prohibitive I will just buy new.

Looks great! Couple of questions. What size tyres are you using and do the coilovers go much lower? :)

Thanks mate. Let me know. You can email me at charge_r @ hotmail.com (without the spaces).

As the title states, I am after a seat belt buckle for the drivers seat. The part that bolts to the seat rail. In grey if that matters. I am a little new to this Micra thing. If you have one PM me.

Thanks for the stickers littlebear! They look great :). Here's a pic:

I got 443kms to 27L on the first tank of fuel in my recently acquired Micra, which is about 6.1L/100k, and the most recent half tank I got 5.8L/100km. No PS or AC. 250,000 on the odometer. I don't know what you guys must be doing to get such poor fuel consumption. Perhaps it would help if...

Great work guys! I am new here but I will definitely be staying :).

Mine turned up today, thanks a lot! I will post pics once I pick up my Micra over the weekend :).
