Greetings to you all!!

Having been bullied into giving up my audi a4 to the wifeCry and the thought of driving round in 1.25si fiesta just wasn't cutting it I panicked sold the fiesta. What on earth was i to buy? I used to own a primera gt and vaguely remembered loving it, so the search commenced. A solid mystic green hatch has been found in what i can only describe fantastic condition.
So the plan is over the coming year is to transform it into a trackday car, with some able advice from many people and maybe some advice frome here aswell. The plan was also to re spray it but the colour has now grown on me and it would be a shame to see another one of these go so the mystic green will stay.
Im no master mechanic but i get by so questions will be asked along the lines of Should I go down the turbo or supercharger route? Will i need to get it re bored? Will the cam need changing? Will the head need replacing? Im no expert so any advice will be greatly apreciated. There is no botomless pit of money but the cost to be honest is unimportant! Wish me luck and i look forward to posting the pictures of the progress and finnished article. Bring on the nurbergring!!

Hi James and welcome to NPOC,
 
Sure glad your keeping the mystic colour now fella, as you say they're getting few and far between nowadays.  Couple of members have tubby's in their Primera's.  I'm pretty certain they'll be along to say hello soon enough.
 
I'm not bias at all, but GT's Rockon.
 
Good to have you along, enjoy the forum and take care.  What information isn't known on here isn't worth knowing fella.  There is a massive knowledge base here.
 
Spending £15 for the extra membership really is the best mod you'll ever make for your Prim too.

Yes a welshman Newport South Wales couldnt find it on the drop down menu. Probably just blind! And i will take some pics as soon as i work out where to stick em on here, and yes i shall obey the law the mystic will stay!! Apart from the usual spot around the spoiler there's not a mark on it. Not sure what to do about that yet but will come up with something, and the bumbers will be replaced anyway so no need for respray. Happy days.
