hi everyone, I will structurate this post in two parts.
the first one is like a goodbye letter or an apologise letter.
i would like to apologise to everyone in the forum, ive been a big faggot in the last months/years, turned friends into enemies. I though it was kinda fun, at a first moment it was, trolling for fun but ive realised that my problem is that I cant make jokes without getting people offended. I know some of the s**t Ive said was unnecessary and useless and attacked people that didnt do anything to me, well nobody did it.
I dont want to make it too long because I dont know what to say more about this, just sorry, I know my blame.
the second one is to introduce my, yes, my car.
After saving some money in the last months, working as much as I could, as you may see my inactivity lately, ive decided that I need a car, Ive also wanted it, but mom said that Ive needed a car, so I started looking for ads. I had things clear, i wanted a japanese car, with some funny engine.
My first car-hunting were Hondas, seen all of them, Civic ESi, Preludes, Accord, Legends... All of them in a good shape and not too expensive, we are talking about 1500 euros.
After seeing that all of them were expensive, Ive started looking for other japanese brands, like Nissan or Suzuki.
So, the next one was a Pulsar VZR or the Almera GTi in Spain, I found one that was in 1900 and the day I called was 1500 euros, that was perfect for me, 140.000kms and 1 owner, sunroof and black color. The day I was going to buy it after talking to the owner, he said that he sold it, WITHOUT TELLING ME FIRST. Good for me that I didnt make a 400kms trip for a non-existent Almera.
My friends girlfriend found me another Nissan, it was powered by the same engine as the Almera GTi, Sunny GTi, and N/A Silvias, the SR20DE. This one was offered in 1900 euros, 108.000 kms and everything original and working, so i went to see it, it was 1 hour from home. Car was amazing, sunroof working, engine was cool, no weird noises and such. When I was going to take it weve found that the rear had an important crash, we realised it because of the floor.
Ive found another one, same price but had the head burnt, so It was a no. Then I found a red one, it was offered in 1500 but the owner told me that I would work on it so it was 1400. When I was going to buy it, I found a better one, it was 1700 but then turnt 1600, the owner was going to give me a set of tires and a radio with it.
After talking to him and WITHOUT seeing the car, mom and I took the 406 and we were going to make a 1000kms trip in a day, Ondara to Sabadell (Barcelona) and Sabadell to home, in total 970kms.
To be honest, I wasnt sure about that, it was too far from home and the money that you can ´´lose´´ but thinking it well, its better than lose 150 euros in petrol and highway tolls, than losing 1700 euros on a bad car, so lets go to Sabadell! The 406 went amazing, 257.000kms and still going like the first day...
We arrived and then we went to Burguer King to ate something and then, we went to see what could be MY car.
At first sight it looked good, some body stuff but thats normal, in spain we done have people driving, we have pigeons.
Went for a test drive and when Ive tried to negotiate the price he didnt wanted to, because he had another possible buyer, so I was not going to argue. It was mine, my first car.
At this moment I was... omg its mine.
And then...
The return trip was terrible, 4 hours of intense rain (pics dont show it)
And then, at 23h in the night weve arrived home!
Ladies and gentleman, here I introduce you my first car,
This is a Nissan Primera, P11 gen, its exactly the GT model, the one that comes with Sport Suspension, sunroof, and leather interior. Comes with 205 tires and SR20DE. This unit was bought in the 1997, its got 173.000kms and everything is working.
Never though I would buy it this quickly, but Im very happy with it, its just different of what I use to see or drive everyday...
I hope you take my apologies and enjoy reading the trip as I did doing it and writing it.
Cheers!
I always liked you Vicent. I just found you brutally honest/ weren't afraid to voice your opinion.
Congrats on the new car! your story reminds me very much of how I got my car. Almost identical just switch the cars out.
Funny how You bashed someone for getting a sr20de and You have one yourself now
Anyways nice find, cool spoiler
Awesome dude! I remember you telling me you were after an almera/primera, nice work it looks in great shape!

i always found your insults hilarious tbh, i didn't realize people took them personally
but it's good to see you taking a better position in the forum
congrats on the buy man! hope the car treats you well and you're able to do what you want with it
y put the zoom and kapow and that sort of s**t when u can simply blur it massively or put a white thingie in it.
I want to show you one of the things I love the most of this car,
the GT badge! Just love the text...
Alright guys!
Ive got something new to show you....
The first thing is the remote control renewal, the sticker was unreadable, so I scanned it and drawn it from scratch, helped with the reference pictures, then I made the real sticker.
before
sticker remove and clean
after
And the best thing probably... IT HAS GARAGE!
Never seen someone do that...
nice car
Thread cleaned a little, warns handed out
looking good vicent! lucky you with the garage lol
You know what i thinking about?
do not try at home, or try but dont call cops okay
and bought this,
I will change it this week, I plan to buy NGK Iridium spark plugs, and for mods I would like to buy a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold, 2,5'' or 2,75'' entire exhaust line, the final will be bigger though.
thoughts?
Tomei Exhaust for mad jdm points
2.75 is abit big for a non turbo, id go 2.25 max
So the car is finally insured at my name is on the papers. Ill be getting air filter and spark plugs next week. Also there is something that will come tomorrow I hope.
I need your help. Ive made a kind of factory sticker I would like to apply to the door, could you help me choose one??
I think I will make the first one.
nice car!
#2 for me
First one!
first one, but make the 1 and 6 closer, and the same with the V and the A
if this is derailing i am a unicorn
second one for me, looks nice.
I am between the first one and second one but,
Finally
Also ill be getting a new air filter and iridium spark plugs next week.
get VVEL as in VTEC parody
hi oh
daamn, it looks very nice
That bumper barely does anything for me. It's basically the same as your stock one..
But it's your car
almost 1 month without refreshing it
well, the car its pretty awesome, drives well, its fast and my economy is still fine lol
Ill be quick because I dont want to write an story. The car had oil changed, changed spark plugs for iridium ones, also had an air and oil filter change. Yesterday Ive ordered 4 liters of gearbox oil and it should be here on Monday, so Ill be changing it this week.
I have aero plans, they are rims and an exhaust.
oh hey
nice liquids

Too bad I have a hybrid maybe my next car

Cool
rare crisotbal appears!
a wild Cristobal summons
because Cristobal is a good boy
i could explain a lot of things happened to the car lately but, anyone interested¿?
me, as always
i went a bit crazy on the SR20 game
Ive been asking about it, and there are only 4 engines in the whole country, two are getting built, one is built but broken down, and the last one, is mine
this little gem comes with an SR20VE (the one with NeoVVL and 190hp) Also comes with Evo IX Brembo brakes, Accord Type R seats, metal brakelines, lightweight Braid rims with RE050 in front and Kumho in the rear, JDM heads and a few more goodies
Wowowowowowowo really nice car. I had an p10 gt with sr20de for few months and dreamed of sr20ve, great engine.
You should put jdm taillights and bumpers like that:
It would be killer then
