what did you do to your micra today ?

Wdid today..
Well no huge turbo engine just a bit of fuctional JDM goodness purchased from on here.
Btw, if you have a dashpod with broken catch (this one did) generic replacements can be found on ebay for about £2.

Put it this way no one would dare to replicate it its not the normal sr20 swap I had cut many parts in the bay to make the box fit the wiring is a Diffrent story handles just like a normal Micra I don't believe in heavy engines mess car up mines would do 160 mph and 0.60 less then 5

I don't fear about the copy they will fear how hard it is, u need to make custom subframe on the rear no Micra has one I made mines, u need custom cross member or engine will never go in

I hope if someone buys the engine mounts you tell them that. Why custom rear subframe? Have you done a and conversion?
 
This JDM Nissan March K11 pre-face lift armrest arrived in the post today will be fitting it in the March Cabriolet tomorrow me's a happy chappy lol! B-) View attachment 47028
Have been told there are 2 different types of JDM Nissan K11 armrests one for pre-face JDM March's (like my cabriolet) and another type for face lift March's? My pre-face lift March front seats have the seat back adjusters on the outside and face lift ones have the seat back adjusters on the inside so I think the difference is in the width dimension so beware of this fact if you purchase one! :D

I won't sell them without making the custom subframe and cross member, all the conversion was done by me from wiring, exhaust the lot

My key wasn't working so i've bought a kit from the bay for only 3.50£ and rsoldered the old contacts with new ones plus new plastic . Happy chappy now when i press ..i get click-click and doors open and close like magic :)
 
Just read above, if anyone else needs new switches let me know I bought like 100 from chine when I did mine so I have 98 left if anyone wants half you can have them for the post from Spain, wouldn't think it would be much
 
I've found the old Blaupunkt Cassette player out of the old Primera. I want to fit it but it needs a code. Does anyone have any recommendations as to where to obtain this? Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Looking good there Azzy, was waiting for you to blow past that crawler in front of ya!!!! Vroom, vroom - gone.
 
Also at the scrappers the other day was a Corsa with a very tasty wrap around spoiler.
Anybody ever fitted one to a Micra ???
AND - mooching around Ebay last night, Tacho speedo heads offerd for £169 and selling on best offers of £100 +
Is that for real ??? 8 watchers as well.
If the scrappers get wind of that, those things are going to get dear for sure !!!
They are getting rarer, but not that rare yet - surely???
Here's my little stack at the moment....one plain black, a rare-ish green one, and a pre-facelift.
Haven't seen any for months now, and I've looked at probably 15/20 in that time. Only two of them had speaker shelves as well.
Only one had fogs, so its definitely getting tougher to find stuff at this time.

Able to confirm that the primera p10 1.6 petrol master cylinder will not fit onto a standard brake booster... Oh well, research and development continues :p
 
I think I might be able to fix my issue without a new MC, just been chatting to some other rally guys and think I've got a leak somewhere...

while someone pushes the pedal HARD, check all along every brake line / fitting / seal for any wetness with bright torch.

check ur available pedal travel is sufficient for the new calipers during bleeding.
ie when nipple open, measure the pedals travel from full rest to fully down (that's ur total MC travel).
now after fully bleeding the system, push the pedal down hard as u can with engine on and measure the pedals position.
if the pedals already travelled over 4/5th down the available travel, it ain't pumping enough fluid cos it's too small, especially once everythings red hot & spongy on track.

Good tip, will double check measurements

you'll prob seen in my blog & vids that on public road the stock MC has just enough travel (I had to raise the rest point very high to get enough rest-bite point travel till it's level with the throttle pedal) to operate the GTIR front calipers when all the systems & fluid are cold most of the time.

on the track however, when all the systems & fluids are fully saturated with heat after afew laps and the brake hoses get abit softer, more fluid volume is required but the stock MC runs out of travel and the first brake application feels only 70-80% effective. I had to double pump the MC to get 100% braking.
 
I finally got hold of my CG manifold :D I'm pretty sure it's a @frank manifold. It's a bit smaller than i expected but that actually works out better for me as the downpipes run kinda close to the coolant pipes on the K10. Also it's stainless :)

Well today I fitted my new induction kit, All went well but I needed something to keep it in place, so I promptly went up the motorway to go and get something suitable, It was at this point my Passenger side front tyre decided it no longer wanted to hold air.. followed by promptly shaking and rubbing a chunk of the splitter off, which cause my induction pipe to fall down to the drive shaft :mad: All in all, after changing the wheel and going around with the air filter disconnect and safely tucked in the passenger foot well I managed to get her home in one piece :cool: Will check damage to the splitter tomorrow :oops:
