This cute little car something special. Glad you saved from salvage and made it to live. Great project thank you.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much for your nice comment! 😊

[@wickbom86]

Fan va jag gillar din kanal. Spelar ingen roll om avsnitten tar tid, din kanal är äkta. Fortsätt med det du gör, du gör det sjukt bra!

[@ejoautovideos]

Betyder verkligen mycket, tack! 🙏

[@ghkzbor]

Good job! The result is great, especially coming from a one guy garage and not from a shop. You can do much more with your hands than most of us, keep it up, waiting for more videos and other projects maybe?

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much, that really means a lot to me! 🙏 A bit of inside information: I've actually bought a new car, so a video of that one should come in the near future 😊👍

[@PatonHaus]

Those rust repairs look excellent, you should be very pleased with the job you did on those repairs 👍

[@964tractorboy]

Super workmanship. Can't wait for the track-day footage.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you very much! 😊

[@gavinoliver8074]

I've been looking so forward to this build

[@y3yee]

din serie har fått mig att vilja köpa en micra 😮‍💨

[@leonardodeldotto3887]

love watching your videos, keep up the good work, waiting for the next one!!

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you! :)

[@aaronaaron_weis1615]

Mad respect. Good work 👍

[@villejussila1599]

I would definitely be happy paying someone to make such a nice rust repair!

[@ejoautovideos]

Ohh you are being to nice! 😊🙏

[@lovroslisko1998]

Post more often! Great video

[@hansjorgkarcher9504]

Nice work!! That’s a very cool project ❤

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you, apreciate that! 😊

[@dirkstellmacher423]

Nice car, Well done. Thank you for this Video.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much! 🙏

[@Gwlyddyn]

Underbart val av "race car". Ta den gubbigaste bilen i riket och gör racebil av.

[@jan-akestenberg7176]

Blev ju kanonbra med rostlagningen 👍 fräck liten bil 😎 bra jobbat.

[@ejoautovideos]

Tackar! 😁

[@HypnotizinDetailz]

You are doing so well my Friend, excellent job EJO! 👌🏻🤩👍🏻

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much my friend! 🙏 Hope to see some content from you in the near future 👍😉

[@HypnotizinDetailz]

@@ejoautovideos - Thanks very much for your kind words, but I gave up on my channel already - unfortunately my content didn’t really attract viewers, so it was going basically nowhere, therefore I just left it there as is… 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jamiewood4280]

Beautiful, driving that will be like Mario kart! I just wish a Swedish KZbinr would do a video on Saab.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you, yes it definitely felt like a go kart. Such a nice feeling! 😁

[@ericsemskar1635]

been waiting on this vid right here

[@lowrezz]

needs an allignment. Fantastic work on this car. Cant wait to see it on track

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you! Yes an alignment would definitely be nice 👍

[@antonh2533]

Fan va sjukt att du håller på så nära där jag bor! Bor i Viksta! 😱

[@MrPuggen]

Snyggt jobbat. Tycker ditt svetsjobb är väldigt snyggt och prydligt. Ser ut som en väldigt körglad Micra 😍👍

[@LucaMuzi]

Nice Work!!

[@Izayoi_RS]

really nice work dude keep it up :)

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you buddy! 😊

[@ritapollon]

Great job! Nice car 👍

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you 😊

[@LukaFontain]

Oh nice one, thanks for fixing my Micra, I'll come and pick it up tomorrow. What's the total cost of labour by the way? XD

[@ejoautovideos]

😂😂

[@mrsundberg]

Snyggt jobbat

[@TasteTheFail]

Dope video my guy 🤙🏻 have to de-rust some of my micra as well this summer

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you very much! 🙏

[@TasteTheFail]

@@ejoautovideos no problemo

[@OkanBozkurt]

thanks for the video, your micra has become perfect condition :) do you plan any brakes upgrade?

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you :) I will see how it performes on the first track day. If I notice any problems or lack of braking performance, then I will upgrade 👍

[@RoadRunnerMeep]

Fantastic work, love the little go karts. That rust looked bad, welding and repairs is another thing I want to learn myself. Something I'm not comfortable tackling yet on my car. I'm not personally a fan of Body iller when it comes to car repairs. I'd rather fix a hole by grinding / welding metal on it

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much. 😊 Yes these cars really feels like go karts when you fix the suspension. 👍

[@CharliesMaidenCovers]

good stuff

[@rolosgamingch18]

Would love for you to restore our Nissan March! Gosh, this is such a nice and somewhat practical build you can take to the track to have fun.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much! I can tell you it's super fun just from the few little test runs I've done already 😁👍

[@GMC997]

FINALLY!

[@CuriousGamer022]

Definitely need to put on a turbo in the future

[@maxwilliamson9565]

Great video, any good ideas of what first mods I should do to my micra s ?

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you! Yes, coilovers and wheels are the best mods IMO :)

[@themagnushjort]

Fan vad fina småvägar ni har i mellansverige

[@rv9990]

Where are you planning to race this car? Don't know of any racetracks in Sweden? Love the content btw. Thanks! Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🤝🇸🇪

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you, The ones close to where I live are: Tierp motorarena, Salabanan and Arlanda testtrack. There are deifinetly better tracks than that, but they are far from where I live.

[@okanyacal1659]

👌🏻

[@geekroute]

change out the steering wheel, you'll be surprise at the difference it makes. a lighten crank pulley is also highly recommended. you also need strut bars for the car

[@gustaveklund7051]

Nice video ! Maybe get a race steriing wherl

[@Obada131obka0301]

Great work man. Are you going to turbo it?

[@ejoautovideos]

I'm temped to, but it would go against the original plan of having a reliable cheap car that's all about the handling. So with that being said I'm leaning more towards doing some light NA tuning instead. 👍

[@SeatLeonMK2]

don't you need other pistons for every turbo setup for the compression ratio?

[@0Tekstyla0]

😍 delete the door deco outside for more weight reduction

[@plservicebatpoleringuppsala]

Härligt att se bilen på vägarna, men ta det försiktigt, Vattholmavägarna är inte dom bäst underhålla 😊

[@andrebarros7703]

hi. is it possible to share link of the oil breather filter? thanks

[@RandomTubePT]

Bro the oil filter was from Stark?

[@montec6113]

Thats a very bizzare way to repair rust, but hey, if it works...

[@pontushaggstrom6261]

"It's so Good!" Mannen det e fortfarande en jävla micra 🤣 Nonetheless fet bil

[@xxlalbatross3287]

When you sell this project to start the next one. Then I want to buy this micra from you.😊

[@sunsetfishing23]

har du en 1.0 växellåda? om inte så rekommenderar ja dem. accelerationen blir mycket bättre. lägre topphastighet dock

[@ejoautovideos]

Yes, kika på förrförra avsnittet så slänger jag på en sån låda 😉👍

[@rae-remastered1300]

Where que I get those parts?

[@JhonnyAmbie]

What about exhaust, any changes? Manifold?

[@ejoautovideos]

Yes that will come 👍

[@Cas_anova]

If you get a Swedish plate that starts with 'TFU'.. That'd be funny.

[@MrDanDizz]

11:30 - rekommenderar att blurra ut hastigheten xD

[@bultertix9860]

Finns ingen anledning att blurra.

[@sdj7122]

what year is this micra ?

[@ejoautovideos]

Year 2001

[@skun80]

And 0 to 100kph was?

[@fastlanenigeria]

What engine is that? 1.0?

[@ejoautovideos]

1.4 engine with the 1.0 gearbox 👍

[@owen8538]

Did you add hp

[@ejoautovideos]

Only a 3" custom intake. So maybe 3 more hp? 😂

[@jisa5995]

Kör du utan kat så finns zink olja 👍

[@MrRedialplease]

1.0 or 1.3?

[@ejoautovideos]

1.4 👍

[@tristan8243]

these blue mail seals are junk most of the time, they go bad real quick. Only oem gaskets are worth the time to replace them imo

[@ravoony1916]

Can we cooperate?

[@xanibor721]

ChrisFix wannabe? 😬

[@J0uwMoeder]

ChrisFix IS a wannabe. EJO is clearly more competent.

[@babakonusur2108]

Mooi gedaan 👍heb er ook 1 ik heb een vraagje voor je waar kan ik een goedkope voorruit halen
