Good job very clean! Best standard alloys those aside from the Sport ones. I had those on my p1 Activ :thumb:

could do with a refurb mind, cant argue tbh, 44k on the clock and £1400 makes that a bit of a bargain

oh everyone, i swear by turtlewax ice, its clear so you can slop it onto anything and it wont show

 

[Boy'Dup]

some more piccys through boredom!

looking to drop it when funds allow, can only find one brand of coilies though, any recommendations? and might refurb the wheels.... black maybe?

 

[Boy'Dup]

anyone?

It's lovely chris.

GET AN N15 MATE

 

[edk]

Clean but I'd do a few things still mate. Clear side repeaters, small front splitter, and as you say, lowered.

 

[Boy'Dup]

i want to do a ph2 front end conversion, as in the better bumper, the lights and the bonnet without a recess, all dependent on how cheap i can get the bits really, was thinking about going black with the repeaters and rear lights tbh

 

[VVLwezz]

looking clean mate, id get a rear spoiler on there as well as the other mods you are going to do

 

[Boy'Dup]

some 14x7s have come up, they have an offset et 15

is that going to be too much poke outside the arches?
yes PCD is 114.3

would need some coilies to get the car a nice stance on them

thems the ones

im not sure if it would clear the caliper does your car have abs.

non abs N16's use 256mm disks
the abs N16's use 280mm disks (Im pretty sure these 14's won't fit)

 

[Boy'Dup]

i'll get me tape measure how much could i grind off the calipers or is that a no no with you jap lads?

 

[Ian_W]

its been done in the past on the micras with GTiR calipers, not sure about N16 gear though

 

[Boy'Dup]

i'll have to inspect the gear on sunday then, see what im dealing with properly, if not its gonna have to be wide 15s but thats not too much trouble, i dont want to downgrade the brake size just for a stance i think 'might' look good, some more thought has to travel into this one

 

[edk]

Liking the wheels, I hope you manage to get them to fit!

 

[Boy'Dup]

unless anyones got any N16 steelies for sale??????

banded steels are the work of the devil imo look hard as fooking nails lol
