The castrol Primera

'

''

The Lucky Last :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Very nice, indeed! :D

The Primera was a car, much like the Accord, that only got made in its JTCC racing form, never the regular version. So, if you ever wanted a plain old Primera/G20, you're out of luck.

Hobby Link Japan (www.hlj.com) has both listed in their catalog, but the Calsonic version is unavailable. The Castrol is listed at 1600 yen.

Ironically, they only have a picture of the Calsonic box: :confused:

Note: There were street versions of the Accord made later by Fujimi or Aoshima, but they were of a low-rider wagon. :rolleyes:

You'd have to read up on their "availability" FAQ on the site, but it pretty much means they can't get anymore in Japan. As in, "out of production, out of stock." I guess they just haven't run out of Castrol ones yet. http://www.plauder-smilies.de/sad/nixweiss.gif

Warren, you ... you ... you .. . . I'm out of words!

How much is 1600 yen???

I know! You're a mean man, that's who you are!

Thanks god DVS has nothing to say in the modelling forum :)

They are very nice! What did you use to do the green on the Castrol car?

A model of the BTCC Primea would be nice, as it it was such a pretty colour (I Sound like a gurl!:rolleyes: )

I had a look for decals, but my sources had none!

I cant remember the can number but it was a spray can done by Tamiya.

Warren, did you paint the front turn signals yellow, or did they come pre-painted?

IIRC, the Tamiya Subaru Impreza WRX kit that just came out this year is the first kit from Tamiya to come with pre-colored translucent parts. So, I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that Warren had to paint 'em himself... :D

Haha! I did not see this when I "revived" the thread!

Oh, Doc, I don't want to see your "little friend".

Anyway, Warren, if you painted them, why did you do that? I haven't seen any Primeras with yellow corners... But maybe in Japan...

The colour in the photo has not turned out very well. They are painted using Tamiya X26 and X27 (ORANGE AND RED)

roughly $16US,

wow warren.. that green one is nice :eek: but I still like the one in your sig better :D

... until I saw the back. It's a Cefiro Wagon; a Fujimi kit. Another version has the "euro style" two-hole grill like the P11.
