SR20DE P10 Primera - reunited again!

Be careful, it's still wet!

are those the Gottis going into the Fiat? I had never seen those. What model are they? It's not like Gottis grow in trees here but several guys in the Renault scene use them and they're awesome.

 

[a112]

These are Gotti 5T, rare model made for original 5 Turbo with rear wheel drive. These all 4 are to suit front end of Renault, I couldn't fit the rear ones probably without wing extensions.

Nice wheels, and colour choice

 

[a112]

Some sound

The 128 is gorgeous, nice work 👍

By far my favourite thread on this section of the forum! great car, love it and the selection of wheels you seem to find!

 

[a112]

Thanks guys, I really appreciate that. The carbs are on sale at the moment and we will see if they sell, I might buy some standalone EFI.

Yeah, now that you mention it, I think a guy that has a rare R5 turbo ran those before he switched to white Speedlines.

So, wing extensions when?

 

[a112]

I wanted to fit wing extension, but I feel bad about cutting these fenders since the paint is new and everything.

 

[spikeyhairdude]

The car looks good how it is.
Love the sound.

 

[a112]

Some non classic adition but it really improves the driving on this car due to bad alingment of steering rack and pedals.

Also camshaft is swapped with 272° 9.85mm lift and 48° overlap. It goes much better since the last one is buggered.

Please don't extend the arches! The standard ones look really good

Love the wheel and dash really simple and clean. How common are these in Croatia? I was trying to find one for sale over here, its impossible.

 

[a112]

I know maybe 3-5 of these in Croatia, 2 registered on the road. There are plenty of Zastavas though, they look the same like new type of Fiat 128.

 

[a112]

Some change of plans regarding the wheels.

 

[Tha-Ran]

I think that extended wheel arches would look great.

But it would be a waste to cut in those arches if they are still neat.

 

[a112]

My point exactly. Also I will be using the period correct Campagnolo Ragno wheels as seen on last two photos that are 6x13 ET12.8 that can barely fill the actual arches without some spacers. Wheels are from 1973. and are made from Elektron magnesium (below 10lbs/each), really appreciated among enthusiasts.

I had some steering rack rods machined to suit spherical bearings. Also my head gasket is blown so the engine is disassembled at the moment. I have plans for another head with better combustion chamber and lower static CR.

Bye 128 welcome boost

Ahhh, a hot hatch. Interested to see where this goes.

 

[Christian_C]

Oww the 128 was awesome

 

[a112]

Well, I eventually got used to 128 so I like the change. This car is quicker and more usable for a daily driver, also a lot quieter so I can go quick without being noticed so much.

 

[Ibonibo]

Noooooooooo, your 128 was so nice.

I had friends owning a Punto back in the days, fun little car. But it can never get the charme of the 128

So what happend to the 128? Sold it?
The last pic of the 128 is fabulous (but sad as a former war-torn country, but makes a good picture)

 

[a112]

I got bored of the flashy car and wanted something stealth as this Punto that generally looks like a normal Punto except for the brakes and the dump valve/spool sounds. I traded the 128 in basic form without some parts for this car.

Here is the B/W version of the last 128 photo

 

[a112]

Bought some ultraleggeras, not my style but they suit well.

 

[Thatman]

Going train style huh?

 

[a112]

Not so much

Anyway, I would like some more poke and lows but I'm afraid it will ruin the driveability so I'm biased about that one.

 

[Thatman]

good deal. 👍

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

Polish that paintwork!
