I was scrolling through Facebook marketplace and I saw a Pulsar GTI-R and it was cheap it had just been listed so I messaged the guy, I told him I could come get it right away and we worked out a deal. Once we got to his house it was noticeable that the car had been sitting for quite some time so I checked the car out and for the most part everything was there it needed little things like some rust repair and new bumpers but it was really in good shape. Everything went very smoothly including the tilting with the DMV which was a surprise. I can wait to get this back on the road once again.

They only salt the hills on the uphill lane in Japan. Downhill lane will be a sheet of ice, but uphill will be dry. I've had to swerve into oncoming traffic just to slow down.

I don't think I've ever seen a car like that, but then I don't follow Asian cars that much. I'm continually amazed at the breadth of your automotive knowledge. I've been a gearhead for 50yrs and you seem to know so much about so many different brands, & kinds of vehicles. I'm in awe!

The flex fuel sensor is made by Contenintal which is an OEM supplier (especially for Chrysler). I wouldnt discount it as being a generic part.

@sessionroadstreetworx729 3 года назад

Dave, Check for the OEM Umbrella in the driver side B pillar just above the door striker...there is a little square plastic flap. Pop the flap open and if the umbrella is there, push on the handle and it will pop out. They are super expensive as well, i've seen them go for over $300.00.

I picked up a wrecked GTI-R about 12 years ago and transplanted the driveline into a 1962 morris mini. but it got put into storage before I finished it. I will have to get it out and start the build again soon. I think your mini would be awesome with a tesla swap... just saying

@802Garage 3 года назад

@telecasteroil 3 года назад

@princesssolace4337 3 года назад

That Pulsar is a look into the future of over priced 90s JDM legend which 85% will end up abandoned, over modified, parts are getting too costly and the owners would try to sell and if they can't get the price that they wanted, it will end up abandoned, collecting dust and rust. Its the same story with 60s/ 70s American cars in my part of South East Asia.

@Mr_jz_12 3 года назад

They were designed to be rally cars but they didn't do well due to being front heavy under steering.

@OriginalMomo 3 года назад

That’s a badass little nugget. Taylor Ray just got one in Florida recently.

get r34 GTR pedals you can probably talk to Sean Morris out in Cali From TopRank Vehicle Importers to get some genuine nismo and replacement parts for it,

@northerner1374 3 года назад

Had one of those. 227bhp stock but a mod on the turbo valve you can easily get 300. Unfortunately they rot. Is yours an early one that has the flare and umbrella in the drivers door b pillar? 👍🏻

@Markver1 3 года назад

Could be a good car to experiment with the paint job. Color shifting paint would be fun to play with on this project. Ever try Plasti-dip?

@puntomk1uk64 3 года назад

These Pulsars were a popular used import here in the UK, back in the early 2000s. So it might be worth looking for some of the parts over here maybe? especially as the regular models were also sold as the Nissan Sunny here. Never thought I'd see one in the US! looking forward to seeing this little Nissan back on the open road :)

@FredsRandomFinds 3 года назад

10:1 a little high for decent boost levels? Had one of these some years back, had just been imported from Japan and was like new underneath. It had Mines programable ECU Tien coilovers front & back front & rear strut braces & adjustable top mounts HKS intake kit & exhaust HKS boost controller & turbo timer Nakamichi audio set up. Was loads of fun as the suspension had been set up so you could pop the back and drift it on the throttle with little effort.. However the first thing I would plan on upgrading would be the front brakes, As the standard ones are monumentally shite. (Disks are too small....) even with upgraded pads they really don't like slowing the car down that well especially at speed..
