Been working on this on and off at work in our workshop, over the last few days :-
Removable strengthening parts for the sump guard out of 8mm Dural. Has added a lot of weight, but good for the Welsh Forests, and removable for tarmac events.
Also got a delivery of what should have been Nissan Coolant, but they delivered 5L of their 5w-30 DPF Oil. They are sorted out sending the coolant and said i can keep the oil, so do i keep it and mix it in with my normal oil for the road cars (which run 10w-40) or do I try and sell it ? Anyone want it ?

Also last night, I continued with the prep work on re-wiring the headlight, spots etc... and removed the screen wash bottle. The new one is much smaller, so ignoring the weight saved from the reduced volume of screen wash (~1.5kgs) the bottle itself saved me 0.5kgs from the very edge of the OSF Also removed some un-needed wires, and painted up the front panel.

What did I to my micra today...
I bought it!
Made a 4 hour round trip.
To see a 98 pre facelift micra that I've been chasing for the past week.
Made it up to the gentleman and couldn't turn him down.
My new micra is a teal blue 3dr gx. She isn't without her flaws but this is my second gx but first P/F I have a lot of plans for her.

when you putting the ga16 airbox on

WDIDT?
Not actually today, but last week, after removing applied some direct to rust paint. Applied some grease under the(what is called the rubber under the spring/coil ) and connect the axle with out the long trailing arm and the breaks shoe. Since the back plate from the old axle is very rusty, removed from the axle with break shoes and the rest as whole unit.
Drove the Red one (Burt) its now 130030 mile s on the clock and going fine done 230 since last file and the it seems it is going an other 120 till the light turns on.
Now the question s are:
1 has any one tried this. Are they reliable?
2. How can I remove and fix the hand break wire/link and refit it to the back plate? Is it very difficult?
Regards

Very many thanks pollyp,
I was thinking of using the same cable but only removing from the plate and fixing to new one. simply to keep the costs down!

99% of the time... no
But these stories keep appearing
Exactly ^^
Micras are slow.... Most cars will beat a standard micra
But if it keeps Chris happy he can keep on pretending
My dad says when he drives his S2000, he'll always get one or two people who just shoot off at the lights if he's next to anyone, probably thinking they just trashed him. In Micra news, I've painted my new spoiler today! Just one of the little ones, not the wrap-around SR/Super S style ones (though they were tempting). It hasn't came out perfect because it's my first real go at spraypainting and silver is apparently hard to get right, but we'll see how it turns out
