Hey there!
My name is Alexander and im from Slovenia. I own a 94' Nissan Micra K11. It's a 1.3 manual.
Well i got my Micra from my mom. She was the 2nd owner
of the car. My grandmother bought it back in 94' and was
the 1st owner. It's a great car. As soon as i became the owner
i started working on it with the help of Slovenia's Nissan & Infiniti forum:
http://www.nissan-si.net/forum/I spet quite alot of money for making this car run now like
a charm....and i LOVE it!
The engine till now is a stock CG13DE, but im hoping soon
for NA tuning on the CG or maybe a GA16DE swap. SR20DE would be awesome fun but crazy
Here is the list of the mods and add-ons i have now:
Audio setup:-Ground Zero sub
-Ground Zero amp
-Balupunkt Sevilla MP38
-SPL Dynamics front speakers & Aviator tweeters
Exhaust setup:-Remus exhaust
Till now runing stock manifold and stock exhaust pipes. Hoping soon for 4-2-1 manifold and DECAT fi50 pipes with NA tuning on the CG13DE or GA16DE/SR20DE swap....we'll see
Chassis:-H&R spring kit
-KYB Excel G gas suspension
-New stabilizer links
-New CV joints
Wheels & Tyres:-Arcasting Excalibur 15" 7J rims
-Toyo Proxes 4 tyres (195/45/15)
Brake setup:-Nissan Sunny N14 calipers
-Brembo discs (aircooled & 240mm...bye bye solid 234mm)
-Ferodo pads
-Castrol Response DOT4 brake fluid
Here are some pics:

Then something new on the K11. I received my CAI by Toyosports from UK. This is how it looks on the K11:
Guess the next step will be cleaning under the hood, polishing the rocker cover, and maybe spraying it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me and a friend soon thought of a better way to stabilize the CAI pipe. We came up with this
:

I did some work on the car and repainted my brake drums. They were rusty and looked bad after putting the rims back on.
Thats how the brake drum looked with the rim on:
The drum after removing the rim:
Grinded & ready for paint job:
Painting the right brake drum:
Painting the left brake drum:
The final product (i think it looks way much better than before):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So i have been looking for some used bucket seats for my K11. All i have seen till now were seats in bad condition. Till i found those of the Suzuki Swift GTi. The guy wanted minimal money and i jumped straight ahead and bought them
That's how they look......i think will do much better in cornering than the original Micra seats of the LX model.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Belive it or not those SSGTi seats took me and a friend 11 hours straight work to fit them in my K11. OMG we almost lost our minds and nerves!!
But now their in and we took it for a spin today and i just love the quality of the ride.
Here's some pics....
I'm glad the seats project is over. Really
-------------------------------------------------------
I got my glass tinted. Im so pleased with the results.
The pugi is my friends, 1.6 90bhp. The car is lowered on VMAXX springs and has KYB Excel G gas
suspension (same as mine). Gotta admit it, that my H&R springs are much much stiffer (sometimes annoying :p).
Some pics:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not a big update, but thats how the car stands atm. Recieved my clear side indicators from UK and a JDM shocker
Few pics:
And some porn with my friends S14a @ stage 3a (380bhp, 510torque):

A little unexpected update hehe
My friend went to Italy to get some parts for his Clio. He came back
with this
And the gauge installed and runing:
Also recieved yesterday my boss kit for my aftermarket steering wheel (which im still waiting to get):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I recieved my aftermarket Sparco steering wheel
Also got this sticker:

And here is the steering wheel mounted:

So we had a Time Attack race here in Slovenia organized not long ago, and i entered the competition with my K11. It was my first time to attend that track so i'm very very pleased with the results
Here's a pic of the track. It's called Raceland and it's located in Krško:
Here's a pic of the final timings:
- I drove 1:02 min so it's pretty good as my friend drives around 58 seconds in his Renault Clio RS (182) and those achieving under 58 seconds were driving on slick or semi slick tires...
Here's a couple of pics from that day:
And here are few mine:
There was some little drama hehe
Will have to put together some videos and will post it here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a video that i made from that event:
And another one made by someone i dont know:
I hope i didnt bore you all out with all those pictures
More to come,
Greetings from Slovenia,
Alex
