I collect model cars. Not R/C ones. I prefer 1:43, but I have *never* *ever* seen a primera in that scale, or any other Nissan for that matter. Anyone seen 1:43 P10 somewhre????

These are R/C, right? what scale?

I have about 90 something cars as of now. I can't show pics of all of them cuz I'll probably bog the site down.:D But these are just a few of them. Enjoy!

Like the black merc :) :)

Myself......i built the 1:24 scale models and have about 60 made up and about another 20 to make.

Mostly do touring cars/funnycars and top fuel dragsters.

I used to build those also. But since my cousins lived in the general vicinity, and you know how kids are, I pretty much lost them all. I had over 100 cars of all types. They just got destroyed even though I had them in cases and stuff. Now I collect metal ones.:D












Legos are cool.

Yes you can - go to the website primera man mentioned and look in the terms and conditions section. They mention shipping to the US.

I build 1/24 scale models, and occasionally pick up diecast cars in either 1/24 or 1/60 [matchbox] scales.

I've got three built, a blue Viper, a white R33 Skyline GT-R and a blue MR2 MKII, and I bought a black diecast S2000. They're all lined up on my window sill.

Right now I'm working on an NSX, and I have a pile of unstarted models under my desk.










Legos are very cool.

Actually Igor, you can go here. www.scale18.com

They have good prices and a wide variety of cars. Some even hard to find.

Auto Art is the BEST 1:18 scale manufacturer around. Do I collect models? Try approx. 3000 Hot Wheels and approx. 300 misc. 1:18, 1:24/25, and 1:64th scale. Yeah, it's a LOT of money, but it keeps me off the streets. At least thats the excuse I give the old lady.:sun:

I am into the RC cars. I have three of those. A Alfa Romeo, A Primera, and a M3. They rock. I have thought about getting a few of those models.

One of my mates owns a model shop and i have ordered both Matt Neal red ones (may only get one as they are all sold out he thinks), and both the blue Primera's.

Worry about the price when they get here :eek: :eek:
He thinks they will sell at about $50-100NZ.

JUST HAVE TO BREAK THE NEWS TO THE WIFE NOW !!!!

Thought about that as well (R.C) as the son is older enough to step up from the cheap ones you buy.
What do you think are the best...love a Primera one :flash: :flash:
Tamiya the best ????

I've actually used that excuse of staying off the streets and it worked with the old lady. She said it's better I play at home then out on the street.:confused:

I wonder what she meant by that? :huh:

Someone wanted a radio controlled P10. Check this one out. You could be mistaken for thinking this was a real stock burgundy P10.

Kris, where'd you get the primera RC car?? I've been looking for one but haven't been able to find any... thx!! :)

Tamiya makes the P10 RC. On the box it has the JTCC Castrol Primera. Of course, you can paint the shell any color you want. As many of you know, there are also hundreds of wheels/tires you can use. Retail was just above a hundred (it's a full kit).

didn't notice this has led to R/C cars...

Protoform bodies makes a P11 Primera body (not exactly to scale)

its a 190mm race body which fits most electric/nitro touring cars such as the HPI RS4 series (my favorite)...
