    Supposedly they come stock with sway bars front & rear:

    Canadian model is the only Micra in the world that receives front and rear sway bars (source)
    But how big/stiff they are is another matter.

    basically the micra is getting the same suspension treatment as the Note, only difference might be that the Note's suspension setup is tuned more for comfort rather than sporty handling.

    I haven't read reviews of the Note. It has a relatively soft suspension?

    In any case, there are already aftermarket springs and sway bars and suspension braces for the Micra should its owners wish sportier handling.

    Yes unfortunately...or fortunately in the way that a normal non car enthusiast would consider it, nissan tuned the suspension on the stateside note to be more for comfort rather than handling but as you pointed out there are already plenty of options for correcting that which is what I'm slowly doing to mine. I just have to be patient is all as a lot of the aftermarket support for the note just isn't there yet here in the states but there are plenty of companies starting to develop parts already so it's just a matter of being patient

    Are there any exhaust mods to go with the Injen intake?

    Put more air in, make room for more air out!

    There are some companies overseas that make exhaust stuff. I've dug up a little and will be posting it a bit later.

    If I googled the right intake, this one costs $240. That isn't terrible for 4 horsepower on a motor that starts with only 109.

    Versaspeed has it for $200. However, there is still the question of if it fits.

    heres a website that lists alot of the parts you can buy for the k13 march/micra, not sure how reputable they are for buying from, but it does give you a good idea of what parts are available for the micra: http://autostyle-usa.com/k13/
