naah i cba anymore this new micra i got is having the old parts of the blue one and nothing else its not worth the money .. and to be fair my love of micras has started to go now after my accident with the little 1.3 .. if it wasnt for tht id still love them n want to modify them =/ but now im just not tht fussed

Now then i no i said id lost the bug for modifying ... but !! ive now got all my old modifications from the 1.3 on my 1L ... and was just wondering if i could get much more outa her .. now with a 1L is a fuel pressure reg any use .. eaither with K&N pannel or an induction kit .. cuz im SOOO bored of the lack of power ! xD ha but dont want to spend much on it .. as ive said
So the newer F/Ls have different grilles? Do they fit in the older models? Only I noticed he said they clip out, in my car (early F/L) they're bolted in?...its a 99 facelift, nostrils are solid along the middle as apposed to the 2001 newer model where the middle part was seperate

Just keep it rubber side down
Rather than try and make it quicker why not look at brakes & handling, springs, ARB's ,damping & do a track day or two get used to how it feels when you push it a bit.
Im not having a pop at your driving but i learnt alot doing just that

Tyres REALLY can only get you so far...I agree with Skinner. Tyres can only help you so much. How your suspension is setup will affect how you car grips
Money is better spent on the handling
You'll find you average 50-60 mph at a maximum. Engine is capable. Make the most of it

The fact SirChris can keep up with me with 155's (to prove a point) and an LSD and I'm rocking 185's proves that...Its so true
