Hey guys new to the forum |
Sun 11 Sep 2011 11:38:42 PM |
Hey everyone, I'm Dave. as topic says I'm new to the forum. I've had my micra for almost two years.
I first purchased the micra off a mate as I needed a run around for work and now it's undergoing a full restoration lol. The brief info: 95' k11 SLX Was blue from factory but am respraying it. ;) photos soon. N15 pulsar stockies. (painted) Slammed. Big sterio. Future mods. Once I finnish the respray Id like to throw on a turbo setup, and tidy up the interior as this micras had a prity hard life. Other than that keep cruzin ma daily :) I'll upload build photos once I get on the computer as I can't off the iPhone it appears. Cheers. |

do you know him personally? how come youre answering all his questions lol..quite odd..
well if it were the Corsa coilovers, he mustve been the first to figure it out..but i dont think he was..and that would mean hes running cut rears springs or none at all lol since it is really low..lower than yours lowmicra |

yeah no worries..NSW has height laws too..100mm from lowest point of the car, but theres heaps that drive lower than that..
im just saying, i dont think hes running the corsa coilovers.. its cause i know theres alot of Sydney micras running cut springs all around. |

Lol gotta say I'm proud that first impression is coilovers hehe but yea it is my run around n I gotta be honest, good old makita coilovers lol front half cut, ass end ones r missing in action lol :p guaranteed LOWEST micra that I've seen in Sydney :).
I've got to get some pictures up of how it sits with the n15 stockies for yous. The only people I'd know in person on this forum is Adam from roadster garage and Anthony from Dahtone racing. I believe he owned the red two door that's for sale again. Cheers guys. |

I'm the mirrors ate plastic mate yOU can't use paint stripper.
The car looks great with the paint. Though my one wish is that you get proper suspension In the car before you right it off with the shit handling. Suspension is there for a reason and cutting it is a silly silly move. Considering coil overs are under a grand for cheap one it's safer then bump stops an cut springs. Love how frank copped shit from a heap of you for some of his work but no one commented in the Suspension setup in this. |

Scuff them back Plastic primed and paint.
Sikk I do intend to get proper suspension, yes coilovers, also trim to tidy it all up, but she is only a run around.. yes they are choppies And it's had that setup for 3 years no dramas! never fallen out and handles like it's on rails. Hit a nice Bend at the right speed ull nicely get the ass end out and easy to steer out of corner with no roll. For a run arou d I bought for fuk all As a work car it's been fine. |

Theres nothing wrong with chopped springs...aslong as you always remember that they are chopped and not fly into corners as if your slammed on coilies, for asthetics its fine, for track days and fast street its stupidity.
bet your looking forward to your first dent mate, you never forget the 1st one haha |
