Nissan Micra K11

Post by ninpofto »

Yes I have hit rock bottom and gone and purchased myself a 95 Nissan Micra two door.
1.3lt twincam, 5-speed,nasty green paint with peeling clear, and she leaks like a sub with flyscreens :lol: .
Has anyone else here ever had the Pleasure :lol: of owning/driving/servicing one?
Once the wedding is out of the way,might have to perform a Mivec 6A12 transplant 8) .
Take care guys/girls and will post some pics once I clean her up a little.

Personally I hate Micras and think that if I were to have a chosen car that I would seek out and destroy, it would be them. Just saying :/

Have a look at mighty car mods on youtube. They started out modding micras and cuores, so you'll be able to get a lot of inspiration from them. All very tasteful and cheap mods. ;)
I'll have an FTO one day... i swear!

until then:
1. 2001 Merc-Benz A160 (porta-loo on wheels)
2. 2007 Peugeot 307 TDi (more fun than you'd expect)
3. [url=ttp://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25373]2009 Mitsubishi Triton Di-D (a monster in its own right)[/url]
4. 1992 Nissan NX Coupe (club car and project car)
5. 1996 Holden SB Barina - "The Nugget"
6. 1996 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport - The Budget Build
7. 2010 Toyota Landcruiser 76 Series - V8 Goodness... - Build coming soon.
