UPGRADING MY TURBO'D MICRA WITH 5 MODS FOR A 2500 MILE ROAD TRIP!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2024
- In this video we modify my turbo'd "Boris the Micra" in an attempt to help the car on a 2500 mile road trip. We fitted 5 modifications that will help this boosted Nissan micra with its power, fun factor and reliability which include a new, loud Japanese style exhaust, a dual subwoofer, new grilles, a new fuel tank and new brake disks and pads. A turbocharged Nissan micra isn't the car that you would expect to survive a long road trip so it's important that we carry out repairs, improvements, modifications and enhancements to help the car survive.

Love the new grill, might be worth adding a little mesh tho so you don't get any rocks puncturing your radiator
That's true
When Boris was first build in lockdown 2020 I didn't expect him to be driving on the stelvio pass a few years later 😂
the borat impression after the exhaust is pretty good
Thanks😂
Great video, Boris looks mean with the new vents 👌🏼
Saw Boris (and you lol) at petrolheadonism Saturday! Wondered why the side exit had gone! My son was buzzing to see it up close! Said “this is sick”! Great content mate keep it up
Thankyou!
Looks great until you get a stone into the radiator
I thought about this, but it’s the same with an exposed front mount intercooler and you see those everywhere.
@@JackMcNeillCars full send mate can always get a new one. Love your channel and what your doing man
Bet ur fun at partys 😅
Get some black mesh/chicken wire I’m sure you could find some with the right size holes that wouldn’t affect the airflow too bad but offer some protection
@@ryanrichardson9044 he wasn’t trying to be funny…
Found your channel couple of weeks ago and love it. Iv just bought a 2003 Renault Clio 172 cup
You should look into fitting Almera,Primer front discs and calipers for better braking.
Was you Broken down at Wellington a couple of months ago just off of the Motorway. i believe it was you it was the only black and pink micra i have seen. lol Keep up the good work
yeah dude!!!!
Borrriiisssss!!! 🥳🥳
I'd whack some black mesh at the back of those grills. Won't change the look much but it'll save you from having a stone to the rad ending the trip before it begins
Looking good!!
Question, before you put the new brake disc in place, you will need to clean all the rust otherwise in the future the disc getting crooked, because rust expands!
Take care of the rear axle, the often rust through😉✌🏼 thats one of the most problems these k11 have and it isnt that funny to lose a rear wheel on the street😅 keep it up, i like your videos😁
One task that I have yet to undertake on my K11, is uprating the brakes. I rarely drive the car hard, if ever, but, down a prolonged steep downhill run, they can fade. N15 Almera front Caliper carries bolt straight up to the K11 uprights, and, because the N15 uses a 4x100 setup, you can use the N15's vented front disks. You will need to change the front calipers, however, these are again a bolt up option. Something else to consider, if a rear Anti Roll bar. CG13DE and CGA3DE K11s, should come with a rear ARB. Some one litres already have the brackets for the ARB, installed. The rear beam should have the mounting points, and, near where the rear beam attaches to the bodywork, if you have the brackets, you'll noticed a pair of flanges that have holes in them. These accommodate the rear ARB drop links. Again, I have a rear ARB, which I'll probably fit over the winter. So, two easy upgrades that can improve the K11, using parts available from Nissan or a good OEM.
you should try and source some nissan sunny front callipers carriers discs and pads i put them on my micra was a nice upgrade to vented discs
You're brave going to the bass bin 😅
i think it will be fine as you have mat and chris to help lol
Waiting for the pov on "Stelvio Pass"
I'm from Newbury, will say hey next time I see you outside the Reading KFC by the Courthouse boiiiiii!!! 😅😅😅
Wow a depcharge sub you do know they don't make them anymore and I bet it's better made than the new ones I've never heard the new ones but that old I sure have
I like your vd
Have you had any issues with the upgraded fule pump? & what one you using walbro??
I keep seeing conflicting reviews x
Cheers
Make some time to go down the Route Napoleon on the way down to Monaco, you won't be disappointed.
You from Reading? I live here too 😂 And I have a micra I want to kit out. We should link 🤘
Take the sliders out and clean them and put grease on them it will help
Didn't realise you were also in Reading, we should take both of the small turbo cars out one time :)
Reading people!!
I hope you cleaned all that up before putting them brakes back on 😉😆
Next time you do pads use brake grease to prevent squeaking and brake binds
You're from Reading and own a Micra but I've never seen it! Are you ever down Reading gate?
Have some faith I'm sure it will make it you never know it may surprise you can't wait to see if I'm right
is it a full straight pipe or has it got any resonators/mufflers or any cats ???
It sound better u need to keep that one on there lol 😆
8:04 you better use a brushless drill😅
Can't believe I bump into today we where the workers on the corner this morning
Would you consider a Toyota starlet 1.3?
Do the same to the bottom one, and plastic weld a eBay honeycombe grille
Move the plate aswell thatl help thats right in the way of air flow
No you want to leave that plate in. Removing it will allow air to bypass the radiator entirely because the gap it leaves it less resistant than the radiator.
Edit: Unless you mean the reg plate. Removing that just leaves a plinth that's the same size and shape so it won't do much.
Out of curiosity, how much was the sound system?
More e46 videos please
Hopefully you cleaned behind the brake disk and put some copper paste so it doesn’t squee
Already seen mats video.... also kinda bugged me when changing the disks you didn't clean them before putting them on 🤷♂️
Hi Jack you should of put the side exit through the side skirt
without the "flames" and if all the pink was white it would actually look fresh af xD
Boris will be the king of Europe
Pink mesh in grills so it doesn't smash the radiator
The grills look like nostrels
Next time you touch ta exhaust pls du a hood dump
Jack, when is this car gonna get a wide body kit. I feel like it’s time, boris deserves it don’t u think
U should f the sub off and make cutom tank in boot
What's the song at 12:01?
pretty sure european cops will love that wing
Boris is missing a Flame map
Don't use a brushed drill to drill a fuel tank they throw sparks
R.I.P any birds, insects or small mammals that get sucked into that engine through the front grille during your road trip.
U should’ve reduced your wing angle for mpg
Get a mk1 bonnet
Borris 🤣
Here in Italy with that car you'll be arrested 😅. I hope you know that every modification that changes the original shape of the car, aswell as mechanical mods are strictly illegal here ☹️.
More 🍚
Drill that tank was mad stupid
A man car with pink ? Can’t get any prettier than this
first
think boris will make it?
Nah it breaks down. The video is already up on his buddy’s channel
It does get there eventually tho
Drilling that fuel tank was stupid and dangerous... cordless drills have electric brakes that spark and could have lit you up... 0_0
Why don't you paint the whole car pink
If u want a custom boot subs my friend can hook u up
Lol bro how off is your content? 2 months behind? We already saw the Monaco trip😅 your car breaks down
Named after everyone's favourite tyrant lizard career liar.....
I took a photo with u today at petrolheadonism
That's gotta be ricest thing i ever seen and i thouth honda civic was worst
my man used brake cleaner on a painted disc :pepega:
How much was the custom exhaust? 🫣
