nice to see something happening on the k12 scene anyway. they are an underestimated little car, and the last of the good quality nissans.

keep up the good work.

well it`s not quite safe yet guy but seeing as noone on here seemed interested in it for sale at the money i wanted then it`s the sensible choice atm with a few new bits an the jobs finished off then it will last me next year then it will be time to look at getting a house with the missus so it will prob be with me a good few years to come

tinted them side repeaters yet ?

w/c 28th feb next year i`m gonna be fitting my audio in as well as a few other little bits if i can get the back end stripped out ready before the 27th feel like a bit of rwyb action at santa pod i might even try to get the tyres on the new wheels by then

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

well small update wheels have arrived will get some pics up and hopefully some fitment pics on friday

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

anyone wanna buy me some tyre`s lol
here`s my new wheels
team dynamics equinox 17x7.5 + 37 ofset
perfect fitment for my k12 i think

let me know what you think

 

[r-reg-sr]

wicked gold metalic,just seen the close up over the arch
tastey wheels! soon looking like a jap spec

 

[squarepants]

not seen this for awhile pal looking good, still not got that bumper finshed eh? (Y)

 

[MrMigs08]

Wow, really like them wheels man, cannot wait for some full view picks with tyres on it (Y)

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

lol dan nope the bumpers still not finished it should be next year the tyres will be coming as soon as possible but atm the cars on hold waiting for better weather an me and the mrs to sort things out as we`re going through a rough patch i know this will dissapoint some people but she`s more important to me than the car

 

[karlj]

there must be something in the air seems like everyones having relationship "problems"

 

[Shaun]

i also have relationship problems, but mine is with the car
(the problem, not the relationship!)

 

[r-reg-sr]

yeh my cats are looking at me oddly now days,two female cats...hope they forgive me soon
as i wont fling em in the car for a drive anymore....NOT:laugh::laugh:

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

you lot make me lol hopefully it will be a quick fix an soon be able to sort out before xmas

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

a small update to come once i`ve cleaned up from the past couple of days work nothing major just some changes audio wise
a small clue don`t think i`m the neighbours best freinds atm

 

[will930]

dw neighbours hate me haha but who needs them lol...

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

lol i do til i can afford my own place an i happen to have very nice neighbours most of the time
the dark caught up with me today so no pics but it`s now a fight between the stereo and the exhaust as to which makes more noise

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

washed the car today whilst i was bored waiting to go out and thought i`d take some pictures of how it now sits with the springs settled enjoy

ps i know the exhaust is a bit wonkey atm it needs to go back to the shop to be sorted

 

[Jason-ri]

what springs are on board...(Y)

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

they are eibach springs can`t remember wether they are sportline or proline the 50mm set though think it`s the proline ones

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

Blimey it's been a while since last update so thought i'd do a quick one things didn't work out with the missus an so we ended up splitting up begining of march which means no more telling me what to do or more what not to do on the car so hopefully next week will see tyres on the new wheels i've had to order some 35mm springs for the rear cuz it scrapes with people in the back and weather permitting i will get that front bumper sorted next week aswell as a ghost from the past returning

 

[Antony]

welcome back matey..

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

welcome back matey..

Same to you ant still got them bits u did to be fitted

 

[r-reg-sr]

yay fling the missus for the win!
you know thats cheating,,,,,,,,,,,not giving the latest pics of the WHOLE car,at diferent angles please
them double exhausts always take me back to some crazy looking capri:grinning:

 

[Antony]

lol, really?... that was a while ago..

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

yeah hopefully i`ll have em fitted next week wth a few extra bits on the inlet manifold

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

well the car is now running 50mm front springs 35mm back springs and 17x7.5 et37 alloys fitted with 205/40 yokohama parada spec 2 rubber pics to come in the morning as now i need sleep but there fairly flush with the arches

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

ok so maybe just one to tempt you

 

[John_1.0]

Whats the black arch on for? looks out of place tbh.

Looks nice though. (Y)

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

the front arches are to enable me to fit the wheels under they will be going body coloured soon tho

 

[Vitus992]

Blimey they look big!! Good work(Y)

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

well finally got time to get the pictures off my phone an here they are

 

[Shaun]

Looking good!
Couldn't help myself :down: Shopp'd your car. Apologies for that :blush:

Before:

After:

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

hmm could prob do with some smoothing no problem with doing the shop it looks good (Y)

 

[Shaun]

Did the K12 ever come with bumpstrips? on any model? as the k11 seems to be the only micra that has them throughout the range?

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

had to alter it slightly tho think it looks good

 

[Shaun]

No need to blank your plate...
'Cos now you don't have one

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

now open the front indicator grills up into one grill an lose the chrome

 

[Shaun]

Tomorrow perhaps. Need sleep! would look amazing with The bumper like that.
Will shop the grill tomorrow for you! Unless someone else on the forum wants a bash?

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

i gave it a quick go but it`s not that good using paint

 

[Shaun]

Not a fan of it

 

[Shaun]

However:

 

[Dragonmaster_uk]

gotta agree with you there shaun no point in opening it up however losing the chrome maybe on the list of things to do next time the bumpers off the front just needs the badge removing might go do that in a min then onto sorting the back out

 

[jaulimsing]

i done that to my car, u get two holes when u take the badge off. i pulled the chrome off my indicators painted it black and put it back in, looks nice.

 

[Crack_Fox]

For the grill use some black vinyl, you can get it in B&Q. Had some on ours for a while.

 

[nismo_k12]

Loose the arches. Get the right offset wheels.

 

[XPS420]

Surprise update coming soon!

 

[karlj]

You're not getting rid
