what did you do to your micra today ?

[Agent_Sm1th]

Finally fitted the new front wing.

Old rusty one. The whole headlight and chassis mounting had gone. Fortunately not transfered the rust to the chassis.

Nice shiny new one.

Really pleased as that was the only rusty part. Lucky it was a bolt on job.

 

[MicraPRO]

I used to be like that... except I now have the parts. Was quite literally my shopping list
Clearly wanted it to be a nissan with the 'insane' sticker.. plus its another person that thinks his alternator is a turbo

MicraPro.... save that k10

Oh dear... nice to know youve been rescued I know I saw that and thought wtf.
Haha there are so many people that think that kinda feel sorry for them and have to humour them for a bit.
I wish I could save the little k10
My k11 is costing me enough at the moment tho just in bits that must be done before JAE...

 

[Guy]

Just off to a local scrappy on my bike to pickup a set of pre-facelift indicator grilles like Jen's mum's got. Really hoping they're the same shape, I'm taking one of mine in a rucksack to compare . I HATE the facelift K12 grilles, they're bogging.

WDID? Got the front wheels balance, MY GAWD!

Never knew something so small could make the car feel so different, feels tight as a drum now

 

[Enuo]

Booked it for an MOT tomorrow. Know it needs sills and a cv boot, maybe an exhaust centre section, hopefully nothing more

I'm sure I saw a blue one somewhere around your white one? Or have I got mixed up somewhere
Nats-itis I like it. Hmm has somebody used it for spares

 

[Noddie]

Took it for an MOT, two pages of fails Haha! Bit more welding than I thought and some other little bits. Better get busy!! Being as it's one of those last few Super S jobbies I'd better save it eh even if scrap is at a premium!

 

[MicrAde]

[Sdperkins]

WDID?
Think it looks good my opinion

Same with mine, If it costs more than £350 to fix it I'll sell it for that much and buy another micra, bit only if they'll save it!

[Enuo]

Name something karl doesn't want

Well I doubt it'll be too bad, I really want to keep it because not only ridiculously early for a k11, its a ridiculously early super s. Hopefully I won't be handing the keys over to Karls dad!

 

[karlj]

The way my dad was smitten by Andy's ss I'm sure he'd buy it if it came up for sale.

Always good to hang onto a piece of history

 

[Sdperkins]

Cheers fella

 

[McMicra]

Ok so after having the wheels balanced all was well, till I noticed that if I have my wheel dead straight the car goes to the left

so I have to turn slightly to the right to go straight,

Any thoughts on what this could be? just alignment?

Cheers Steve

 

[karlj]

^ that's always happened to me, I think it's where they haven't secured the steering wheel properly

 

[McMicra]

you mean the wheels?

Never touched anything other than the 2 fronts

 

[karlj]

Whenever I've had my tracking done, they put a clamp on the steering wheel to keep it straight, kind of like the steering locks you can get but it digs into the seat.

 

[McMicra]

nah they just rebalanced the front wheels and now its sitting squint =/, ill just live with it till I get my springs then ill get it all sorted

 

[deano1988]

getting ready for japfest 2

 

[Enuo]

nah they just rebalanced the front wheels and now its sitting squint =/, ill just live with it till I get my springs then ill get it all sorted

Tyre pressures?

 

[McMicra]

Ill check em tonight and let you know, its not overly bad, but I see the wheel is squint and its bugging me like mad

 

[SirChris]

tracking will un aligned steeringwheel.

 

[Enuo]

tracking will un aligned steeringwheel.

Not if you get it done properly.

 

[SirChris]

Not if you get it done properly.

jesus everyones on a correction fit.. shup u I am agreeing with you The wheel aint been held properly. When you coming round reading ways again
