My pulsar (pc'd it earlier)

[midge]

Thats another off the list 'to own'
picked this up earlier, and its great, i actually prefer it to the evo 4 i had, the paint was in a state so i gave it a pc and now it looks brilliant! check the reflection in the pics!
going to put it straight up for sale though as ive been offered my friends evo 6 at a great price

 

[Silent_Scone]

crikey Midge you go through these old tins like nobody else. Looks nice. Tinkered much??

 

[Christopher]

I love them. Quite rare to see one running nowadays.

 

[Bluebeard]

They look so cool and on paper, they are awesome!

But I have absolutely no desire to own one whatsoever. Strange.

 

[Gaz.]

Can I have the red top please?

Nice cars, but as per Daniel, I've never wanted one. Evo 6 is an epic choice though.

 

[Clart]

i'm sure they are bloody quick, but they are so fcukin ugly and have not aged at all well...

 

[Christopher]

They're based on a Japanese hatchback from the 80's. It wasn't designed to age well, as a priority. lol.

I like the fact it's a munter, kinda adds to it, in a weird way.

 

[Silent_Scone]

I think I've known of more people that have died in these than the times I've had roast on a sunday tbh

 

[midge]

Ugly for sure, but in a beautiful way, I think its a bit quicker than the evo was, and imo handles better (it is fitted with tein suspension though) and they are alot cheaper! win,win,win.

Thats an unbiased view btw! i have a desire to own alot of cool cars, dont really want to keep any car (except the white hybrid that i have spent way to much time messing about with)

 

[Silent_Scone]

The fact you're 10 minutes from here is frustrating me. I might go and have a few drinks and come back and make you an offer for it

 

[Addz]

Always wanted a pulsar! well done sir

 

[Alex H]

Can I have the green micra in the background.. and the pulsar engine, please?

 

[conneh]

My mate has one, rapid! And he paid peanuts for it.

 

[dalla]

Awesome. I love those.

 

[Ali]

Horrible looking cars and thats enough to put me off. Hopefully you'll get it out of your system quickly.

 

[FlameR]

f**king horrible looking cars. Not going to dispute their tuning abilities though. Most that have been tinkered with seem to be running 280-300bhp! But I'd rather ride a big dog to work than drive that hunk o' turd

 

[Englebert]

I actually like the look of nicely modified ones, but they are terrible to drive. Lag, bad brakes, poor handling and not especially reliable either.

 

[mat-nos]

i want one, again not for its looks but for how they perform!!!
i had a go in a 300bhp one and it felt stupidly quick compared to the r32 gtr i had at the time.....

getting hard to find good ones now though :-(

 

[_Tom]

Love it. Love them. Want one. End

 

[Ian_182]

I used to like them a few years ago,s;ightly old looking now though and i bet a year with one would be a money pit...

 

[hilldawg172]

goegeous car!

 

[ilovewilly]

As far as jap cars go for scene tax, these are a cheap buy today.

The fact that they usually spend more time off the road than on is what puts me off.

Always found them a bit rushed and not thought through. The standard brakes are cack also. To me the ones i've driven haven't felt very stable. Come to an interesting stretch of road and I don't get the feedback and confidence from them.

They are worth the money though, and for that fact I would still have one. If it was a Honda, it would be worth 6k

A mates old Pulsar,who I spent many hours working on inside out is up for sale now at a reasonable rate, but he took the interior out along with all the brackets for the rear seats and belts to go back in.

 

[midge]

Just done a search to see this again - i think i sold this for £2000, the cheapest one on ebay at the moment is £4500!
I loved this car!

 

[McGherkin]

TBH though you did the best thing you can do to a Pulsar - Sell it on quick before it breaks.

 

[DaveDreads]

Aren't these really fragile and unreliable once modified?

 

[Mr Plums]

i actually prefer it to the evo 4 i had, the paint was in a state so i gave it a pc and now it looks brilliant! check the reflection in the pics!

Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!

 

[McGherkin]

What do you mean 'once modified'?

 

[Mr Plums]

Aren't these really fragile and unreliable once modified?

jc5 with brittle bone disease!

 

[NorthloopCup]

There's one of these being built with an Evo engine and running gear. 1000+ hp as well.
There's quite a few that have been converted to gtr engine and running gear as well.

Chap who i bought my old saab from had a customers gtir in getting paint done. Chap had spent some serious monies on the car and was running 800bhp ish iirc. Im sure he said 40k spent but he had a mustang in there too so cant be sure which one had the money spent on.
