I guess I should start one of these, first some info about myself

Living and working in Yokohama for about 1.5 years now (minus 6 months in Malaysia)

2nd time living in Japan, lived in Kobe for 10 months in 2010-2011

My Japanese is pretty terrible but enough to get by on

Recently purchased 1998 Nissan Stagea Autech Version 260RS

Eventful morning, stayed up all night watching Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid match, which ended around 7am local time. Since I was up I decided to make the short trip over to Daikoku to check out the Sunday morning fun.

(On mobile now, but will put pics into the thread later)

And a quick gopro video, wrist mount strapped to the passenger headrest seems to work well

    • Inspiration: https://www.nissan-global.com/EN/HERITAGE_COLLECTION/Primera_GT.html   Original ad for the car:  
    • 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.
    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
