We havn't gone anywhere.......

We got lots and lots of regular Primera's here, as well as the GT models.
Which means lots of SR18 shit boxes built to the lowest possible cost by Nissan before they went under.

There are quite a few of the post Renault Primerrors showing up now though, although they all seem to have a problem with one of the sensors on the CVT.


How busy is your local club?

Cool, busy is good!
It's been a while since I was involved in car clubs, or even car stuff.

ah ok, totally the opposite for me, spending a lot of spare time on the car club and cars in general, suppose makes a difference when you are running one, rather than just being part of one, also gone through more cars in the last year or so then in the previous 10 odd years of driving lol all nissans as well

It's so easy once you get into the scene to start swaping and change cars, I bet they were all Primeras though?


I'm getting back into it now, I can't get away from it really.
And AF seems to be the best place to get back and get involved, I've never been much for Brand loyalty, All things Automotive are what get me going

lol you be wrong there, surprisingly only 1 Primera, the one I've had from the start...

been through 2 Almeras (one converted to turbo) then a Pulsar Vzr, which then led onto VZR N1, as well as being onto my second R33 GTR..

not much to do with brand loyalty, but knowing them to be rare cars to get, specially the VZR and N1, think I have the only one in England, once I learnt about them, just had to go get one of em, and the 33 was a dream from a long time anyways

The GTR must be fantastic on the English roads.
We see a few around here, sadly there was a period where they were very cheap, so lots have been bought and badly, badly modified.

I would love to drive a VZR, especially a N1, but I always think of them as being a poor mans CTR.

Re: Remember When...

can't comment on the CTR, having not driven one, but can say, was very pleasantly surprised at how good the N1 is, VZR was nice, but the N1 totally got me.

My old SiR used to run rings around VZRs, but I believe the N1 is quite different? More power, lighter, etc?

yup more power and lighter, big difference between the two. luckily for me drove te VZR first and then N1 straight after, so was very easy to have a direct comparison
