Corsa B Coilovers Made my K11 Micra Undrivable

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Title is kinda clickbait, sorry.
In the last video, I installed Corsa B coilovers onto the Micra and because I'm running 16' wheels, the car was now undrivable.
The solution was fitting cut N16 Almera rear springs to slightly raise the rear where the tyres were rubbing on the arch.

    I like the 16's because they fill the arch without the car being extremely low though🤣

    @ckuh I was considering it but it was simply impractical plus the car was squatting🤣

    Looks good 👍 It does seem like rust is coming through the primer on the sills already

    The driver side one still has some fibreglass filler that I haven't sanded and painted properly yet, so it isn't rust, I hope that's the one you noticed.🤣

    Good video... I would like do the same for my micra, but i think that is better buy lower springs -3cm, what do you think? (Sorry for my bad english)

    Lowering springs would definitely be easier and more straightforward. 3cm isn’t a very big drop, though.

    @danielpicazo5722 The springs I used are for a Nissan Almera N16, a heavier car, so I assume cutting a few coils shouldn't be too bad as the springs are stiffer than the stock ones. Haven't had any issues so far.

    Hi bro, I wanted to ask you what diameter of the exhaust track I want to make myself the same!😊

    I used 1.5 inch pipes for the manifold and 2.5 for the rest of the exhaust. I definitely wouldn't use 2.5 if i were to do it again as it's simply too big for a 1.0l engine. Maybe 2 inch or 2.25 at most would be better.

    @@the_mintiest_micra It turns out that you used 63 pipes in Russia, changes are made in millimeters! I plan to make a 60mm exhaust on a Japanese kakimoto can for 1.4mt! You have a beautiful bumper. I want to set one for myself too!

    I'll be taking care of the turbo charge pipes in the next episode of the turbo series, also fuel system upgrades, brakes, boost and oil pressure gauges and some other small bits soon.

    As long as there isn't a big imbalance in the shocks and the car isn’t super super low I don’t think it should fail on them necessary.🤷‍♂️
