Micra SR k11

Bit progress from today. Got my 35mm springs fitted with 2 coils off, sits pretty high tbh nowhere near where it sat before but now its safe and gotta say the ride is 100% better! Over the moon with it considering how stupid and dangerous the old 'chopped standard' springs were. Dangerous how small the fronts were!

Heres a couple of pics :)

Ordered these aswell for my bootlid just as i think they look better than the 'micra' and 'sr'

Got them in anthracite as i think thats the closest colour to oem

Ordered them off a lad on here called Kev?? Procut vinyl :)

That was a front one!? :eek: that looks so small it must have just been bouncing around freely/completely uncaptive.

Yeah but the 35mm are only slightly cut cant tell the difference tbh the standard ones were ridiculous, it was bouncy

With these ones on, it feels standard and not bouncy at all

Scrap is around £120 for a k11 (I only got £80 for my vibe though:()

I'd love to rescue this but 1, you seem to have made you're mind up and 2, you've not put pictures up of your sills
 
Its the inner sills thats rotton the outers are not too bad just have a holf in each side, inners are gone tho....ive got 2 brand new sills there aswell :(

I can get some pics tomorrow if you want like...
 
I think id make more breaking it, even tho i dont want too :(

Id hate it to get scraped i wish someone would save it, just dont have money too atm

No not including them. Lol

I want £250 for them :)

Wouldn't offer more than a tenner on scrap value without alloys personally... I'd just buy it off the scrappy after you left it there for not THAT much more... If I wanted it that badly
 
jonnygt said:
Well thats up to you then....im not letting it go with wheels for pennies

Not at all

Thats totally understandable mate, I'd just be a bit more realistic about what you'll get for it is all, if it's worth £300 to you even without the wheels then buy a welder, have a bit of a practice and do the sills yourself :) That's my advice mate, you'll miss it when it's gone, and when you decide you want another for nostalgia you'll struggle like hell...
Keep it is my vote, worst comes to worst it's a source of parts for your other micra :)
 
Yeah thats what i was thinking tbh, if i sell my wheels i was going to use that money to get sills done then get it painted later and just leave it in primer for now lol or if i sell wheels then a few parts, i was gunna get a basic 1.0 k11 and stick my engine, springs and interior and stuff on. Itll make a good one out of 2 cars, just need wheels to sell first.,.

Wish i could keep them aswell tbh...

so you had cut standard springs? but you have brought 35mm springs and cut them aswell? :/ cutting springs is silly regardless of what springs you cut lol.

foolso_O
 
Its only primer your right lol

Yeah you could buy em, but yours is facelift, there a different fit?

Still buy em if you want tho...
 
Ah crap. Honestly feel like a tool now. Didn't think... Even though I look at prefacelifts everyday and ponder whether or not I should do a re-face(if that makes sense) on mine. Would cost too must for just purely aesthetic purposes.
 
Well the wings i bought, as mine wer rusted....these are mint condition, rust free

Bonnet and front bumper, fogs and headlights are all tip top abd as they should be...
 
I ment the engine bay sprayed everywere black and the front chassi arms sprayed black to that's all man..
