Afternoon all,

I currently own a heavily modified 1.3 Nissan Micra, and I'm looking to get a possible second car in the next few months, either a Fiat Brava, or a Vauxhall Calibra.

I'm wanting to know a few bits and pieces about the brava before I get one, so here goes.

Are the bravo/brava internal parts straigh swaps?
Do any of the bravos/bravas come with leather interiors, or what are the nicest interior/seats available?
Would the bravo HGT engine fit directly into the brava, ie straight swap?
Whats the highest rim size you can have?
Has anyone got any nice pics of a brava with the bumper extensions and rear spoiler fitted at all?
Is the 1.6 good on petrol?

Cheers for ur help.....

MOST parts are a straight swap between bravo/a.
HGT Bravo's came with leather interior
Unsure about the engine swap. THe HGT Bravo has slightly wider arches
18's will go on but 17's are most popular
Pics can be found on http://www.bravo-guide.co.uk and http://www.fiatboo.co.uk
1.6 is ok

The bravo-guide is a very useful site. Its currently being re-designed by myself so some of the pages are in the old format. The bravo forum would also be a very useful place to ask questions (http://www.network54.com/Hide/Forum/15639). All bravo/a owners with a lot of knowledge.

However, when posting, for your own sake, dont mention that you have a heavily modified micra, lol. You will not get a good response.

Lol ok mate.....

Will have plenty more questions so will leave that off.... Whay wont I get a good response tho?

coz sum folks on this forum are a bit brand focused
(some don't even realise that non italians make cars)
others aren't so bad tho!

Focused on the brand that this Forum is designed for, which I believe is FIAT, there are other brand forums which others are free to visit if that's their particular interest.

FIAT Stilo Sport. Pretty Much Bog Standard Really. Rear Roof Spoiler,
Sill Protectors, Aluminium Foot Pedals, Eibach 30mm Drop Springs.

get the brava, my ones for sale. very reliable too! i believe you're new here......

Met Cognac 99 Brava 100 HSX,

I wasnt actuallyt referring to this forum about the Micra - I meant the Bravo Forum. They arent brand focused as such but would just spend more time discussing your micra and trying to take the ****

Just trying to save ya some time and effort. However, Bravo's are sexier IMO

Are you trying to sell you car again Colm?

I thought you'd decided to stick with it?
