Nissan Micra K11 Honda K20 K-Swap Driveshafts

Purpose-built conversion driveshafts for installing a Honda K20 drivetrain into the Nissan Micra K11.

Developed as part of our own K-Swap programme, these motorsport-grade shafts provide the link between the Honda K20 gearbox and the original Nissan Micra K11 hub arrangement.

The shafts are designed to use an OEM K20 inner CV joint at the gearbox end and a K11 Micra outer CV joint at the hub end, providing a purpose-built solution without relying on modified or welded original driveshafts.

This is the driveshaft arrangement developed for and used on our Spicy Micra V3 K-Swap.

Purpose-Built K-Swap Driveshaft Solution

Driveshafts are one of the major compatibility issues when installing a Honda K-Series drivetrain into the considerably smaller Nissan Micra K11.

The Honda gearbox requires the appropriate Honda inner CV arrangement, while the vehicle still needs to interface with the K11's original hub drive flange.

Our conversion shafts provide the link between the two:

K20 Gearbox → OEM K20 Inner CV → GizFab Conversion Shaft → K11 Outer CV → K11 Hub

This allows the Honda drivetrain to work with the K11 hub arrangement without attempting to use a complete driveshaft from either donor vehicle.

⚠️ DESIGNED AROUND THE K20 GEARBOX

These conversion shafts are intended for K-Swapped K11s using the K20 gearbox arrangement used within our conversion package.

They should not automatically be assumed compatible with alternative Honda transmissions.

In particular, gearbox choice should be confirmed before ordering if your conversion differs from our established K-Swap configuration.

⚠️ SUPPLIED AS BARE SHAFTS ONLY

CV JOINTS ARE NOT INCLUDED.

This listing is for the conversion driveshaft bars only.

The customer will need to supply the appropriate:

• OEM K20 Inner CV Joints
• Nissan Micra K11 Outer CV Joints

CV boots, grease, clips, hub nuts and other service components are also not included unless specifically stated otherwise.

K20 Inner CV Joints

The gearbox end of the conversion shafts is designed to use the appropriate OEM K20 inner CV joint, providing the interface with the Honda transmission.

We recommend using genuine/OE-quality CV components in known good condition, particularly on higher-power or motorsport vehicles.

K11 Outer CV Joints

At the hub end, the conversion shafts use Nissan Micra K11 outer CV joints.

This allows the original K11 hub drive arrangement to be retained while using the Honda transmission at the opposite end of the drivetrain.

Developed on Spicy Micra V3

These shafts were developed as part of our own K-Series conversion programme and are the driveshaft solution used on:

Spicy Micra V3

Our K-Swapped development car has allowed us to work through the packaging and drivetrain challenges involved in fitting a Honda K-Series drivetrain into the K11 chassis.

Rather than leaving the customer to solve the driveshaft combination independently, these shafts provide a ready-made solution to one of the more awkward parts of the conversion.

Motorsport-Grade Driveshafts

These are motorsport-grade conversion driveshafts designed specifically for heavily modified vehicles.

They are not standard replacement K11 or Honda driveshafts.

As with any performance drivetrain component, overall reliability depends on the complete installation.

Particular attention must be given to:

• CV Joint Quality & Condition
• Engine Position
• Gearbox Position
• Driveshaft Plunge
• CV Operating Angles
• Suspension Geometry
• Vehicle Ride Height
• Engine Mounting
• Wheel Hop
• Tyre Grip
• Overall Drivetrain Condition

Professional Assembly & Installation Required

These are specialist engine-conversion components and should be assembled and installed by somebody experienced with modified drivetrains and CV driveshaft systems.

Before the vehicle is operated, the installer must verify:

• Correct Inner CV Fitment
• Correct Outer CV Fitment
• Correct Circlip Engagement
• Correct Driveshaft Plunge
• Suitable CV Operating Angles
• Clearance throughout Suspension Travel
• Clearance throughout Steering Travel
• Correct Engine & Gearbox Position
• Correct Hub Nut Installation
• CV Boot Security
• No Binding throughout the Operating Range

⚠️ DRIVESHAFT PLUNGE MUST BE CHECKED

Correct driveshaft plunge is critical on any engine-converted vehicle.

The driveshaft must not bottom out within the CV joint as the suspension and drivetrain move, while also maintaining sufficient engagement throughout its operating range.

The final geometry can be affected by engine position, gearbox position, engine mounts, suspension ride height and other modifications.

The installer is responsible for checking driveshaft plunge and CV operation on the completed vehicle before it is driven.

Complete K-Swap Applications

These shafts have been developed to complement our wider Nissan Micra K11 K20/K24 K-Swap conversion components.

For customers building a complete conversion, we also offer other purpose-built components to help solve some of the more involved aspects of fitting the Honda drivetrain into the K11 chassis.

Motorsport / Off-Road Use

These driveshafts are designed for modified vehicles, engine conversions and motorsport applications.

They are not standard replacement Nissan or Honda components.

The purchaser and installer are responsible for ensuring the completed drivetrain installation is suitable for the vehicle and its intended use.

The GizFab conversion driveshafts are warranted to the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 12 months from purchase.

Our obligation under this warranty is limited to repair or replacement, at our discretion, where inspection confirms a manufacturing or material defect.

The warranty does not cover incorrect assembly, unsuitable or failed CV joints, incorrect engine or gearbox positioning, insufficient or excessive driveshaft plunge, excessive CV operating angles, wheel hop, physical or accident damage, incorrect suspension geometry, modification or failure of surrounding drivetrain components.

The warranty applies to the supplied conversion shafts only and does not cover CV joints, hubs, gearboxes, intermediate shafts, bearings, labour, vehicle recovery, removal/refitting costs or consequential damage.
