but i was able to tax my car with christmas money so i can keep the manifold!
now to fit maybe thinking of doing it today!
 
Mate your car is looking really good, I have a red Micra as well so its nice to see what mine would look like when you have added certain things. Them rear clusters are lovely :)
keep up the good work mate!
 
before you fit the manifold give it a good 6 or seven coats of very high temperature paint. the standard stuff burns off in about 500 miles and looks rubish..lol

you could even get it powedercoated...
 
thanks for the comments guys ill do that with the manifold :D cheers for the tip and yer they really suit red cars also grr trying to fit the mani now the two bolts with the springs on the first cat one is bigger than the other and none of my sockets fit out of about easilly 100 sockets not friggin one fits!

the other one moves nicely with the socket im using it seems a tiny too small for the other!
:(

probably just the rust has swelled it :glance:, the 2nd cat ones are usually the most rusted, i had to grind the side of the nut away and use a chisel to split the nut open enough for it to spin o_O
 
hey optis, good stuff with ya micra mate. some nice mods to it. the LED are cool got them myself and the central locking too. was wondering mate were did u get ur K&N panel filter from and wat differences did it make ?? and ur ashley backbox were did u get that from ??? what the difference with it too???

cheers mate :)


:blush:
 
bloody hell frank! lol ill see what i can do!!

syrup, the K&N gave slight acceleration gains well worth buying and same with the backbox also it sounds amazing lol its best with the rest of the exhaust which is my plan!

there both from potn.com great site :D
 
lookin good mate its give me some ispiration to do mine as i did feel a little dis-heartened looking at most others as im also extremely strapped for cash but pleased to know i can still make it look good within a budget. wikid.
I like the idea of central locking very much how do i go about getting hold of one cheap?
 
well as said the manifold is no fitted and im sooo happy with it it sounds amazing and peforms so much better its quality! ill try and get more pics up! of it
