K11's are getting old, and the K12 just hasn't got the same following, and K13's are a rarity that is unlikely to appeal in the same way the K11 has.

Standard size should be 165/65x14, a small difference. No idea if they fit a K10 though.

mine has studs and nuts o_O

Same here, I just got the impression Scorps experience may not have been as good as ours, hence why I mentioned the brake pads difference.

Blueprint for me, however I've experienced different items in the box to what have gone before. I bought some blueprint pads which I rated, so a few years later bought some more, the later pads are nothing like the first ones, perhaps that happens to the CV boots too.

Poor quality rubber. It seems rife these days. I fitted Blueprint ones, they are good quality, although I've not looked at them for quite a while now.

With the talk turning to performance, is that what you're looking for? I got the impression you were after the cheapest tyre with reasonable performance. 165/65x14 is a standard Micra size, but a 60 series tyre will obviously also fit. https://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres-165-65-14/ these...

what size tyre to you require?

3-door cars doors are much bigger than 5-door cars, that goes for nearly all cars including the Micra.

165/55x12

I don't sorry, I guess a manual rack will be a lot easier to remove than a hydraulic one. This guide may help http://www.micra.com.au/technical-articles/power-steering-conversion.php

I imagine that Mickyboy is long gone, have you seen the date on his post?

You and Davyboy could start a club. I see can see serious signs of loss of practicality coming. :p

I've had good experience with standard Champion wipers. Bosch ones I've had haven't been as good. I spotted these on ebay and wondered if anyone here has used them? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Micra-1992-2002-HYDROBLADE-Retrofit-Flat-Windscreen-Wiper-Blades-/301961734216?hash=item464e526848

They are faster than a 1.0L K11 though aren't they? 60 in 14.30secs and 98mph http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/citro%C3%ABn/c1/specs

I think the best thing to do would be to seek out a very solid car, possibly a car with minor damage from Copart, then pull it to bits and do what Pete does to his cars in this link. http://sxoc.com/vbb/showthread.php?580404-The-final-hurrah-%96-S13-25K-miles-1-owner-from-new-full-refurb
