  1. Just re-read the history of that car. That was the P10 which wasn’t that successful. It was effectively just a Pulsar SSS with IRS. The P11 was a much better and more successful beast. I’m surprise for a campaign in the 2000’s they bought such an old car.
  2. I’ll offer him $50 and a cold beer and see if he wants to sell. Will save me building one
  3. Been playing with some ideas using Gen AI 🤣 I had the first strawberry face 180 in oz back in 99… maybe I should do the first strawberry P11?
  4. Says on the site that the car was sold to Keith Linnell. His shop is about 15 mins from my place. My try to see if he still has it!
  5. They were. I bought the AWD for experimenting but racing it would disqualify or disadvantage me from a few race classes. Def getting a FWD for racing.

  7. Yeah, hard to find and a pain in the ass to change with the transverse engine. I’ve worked on a GTiR before and it’s not a job I’d ever want to do again. theres a company in South Africa that makes RS3 gearbox adaptors for the AWD SR20 including gearbox mounts, so I could modernise it and go a dual clutch with paddles. For now tho, it ticks all the boxes. Super cheap, can throw the kids and their junk in the back, and SR20 that I can turbo cheaply, a CVT that’s not a dog’s breakfast like the V35, and has 80% interchangeable parts with stuff I can source from the wreckers cheaply…. But it’s still unique. I love the wagon back of the Autech version. It’s cheap enough that I can buy another stock manual FWD Primera with SR20VE, swap the gearbox to the N15 pulsar short gear ratio box, swap out the brakes to the R32 ones I pulled off my 32, register it on club plates and take it racing. $1300 shipping from NZ. Heaps of parts and aftermarket builders for transverse SR20’s in NZ.
  8. I’ll drive it a bit but there’s an Audi RS3 DSG kit available for it if I want to go all out - or GTiR box
  9. Winner winner chicken dinner! an Autech P11 Primera AWD wagon with a CVT and more importantly an SR20VE. I’ll drive it around for a bit and see if I like it, and look at getting a FWD sedan to go BTCC inspired build and to get seat time in IPRA and Super sprints under the 2L NA class.
  10. Close. Not quite. You’re on the right track. It’s a super obscure car that not many people in Australia own or would’ve even heard of. A hint: it was developed to dominate a gaijin racing championship.
  11. Seller is holding the car for me with a deposit until I can fly back to Auckland to check it out. It’s a 2L Nissan AWD
  12. Soooo I may have purchased another car from NZ It has Nissan motorsport pedigree... and if I like it, I might be selling the 32 (or my Golf) to buy another one to take IPRA racing.
  13. Jeez... I forgot I posted this 11 years ago!
  14. Spotted in NYC! Fresh off the boat too it seems!
