OK so not a ford, but one of the better non-fords ive had, i gave the car a respray, built and engine and got it tested, then drovr it for a couple of months and sold it back to the previous owner!

 

Ive always liked these cars even though i find them ugly as hell, looks better silver than black as well. Nice motor

 

looks nice that matey

 

Cheers, yeah i know what you mean, they look purposefull, not pretty. Silver makes a change from the usual black i think

 

looks nice mate, and looks like a quality respray!

 

Cheers, i get better everytime i paint something lol, silver is good as like white your repairs dont have to be perfect. Black is a pain in the arse on the other hand!

 

Correct black is a fucker

Nice job

 

cheers, the respray was the easy bit. Building the engine was the bastard. I, in my ultimate wisdom decidede the 2 litre sr20 in the almera gti was the same block, so i bought one up and started to make it into a gtir engine, forged rods, pistons, gtir head etc. But nearly everything was different lol. ended up making an oil filter adaptor, making an alternator bracket, pas pump bracket, grinding a lot of webbing off of the back of the block to clear the transfer box, and modifying the sump lol. But it still made 320 bhp @20 psi boost. Never felt that quick though TBH.

 

Looking good. I love Pulsars, something about them! remember all the rude boys used to have them round my way when i was a youngen Would love one but ive heard there a nightmare to work on

 

engine and gearbox out job to do anything major like clutch or timing chain, other than that they are no worse than an rs turbo lol. Only a 2 litre though, not much torque about them

 

 

lol, jap crap

 

cheers! wouldnt have another though the 4x4 system is a bit crude and sapps a lot of power IMO, although it would spin all four wheels in the wet!

 

Looks like a very nice one, always regretted selling my old one. Mine never really let me down.

Would have another one but would have to be ivory or green..

 

Yeah, they are quire reliable TBH, only had clutch problems with this one, and that was mostly my fault the problem with gtirs is finding a good one, every one you see is a dog normally

 

yeh, mine was std and mint when i got it, but as always messed with it a little.

And the only problem i had with mine was the clutch, but as you said self inflicted, too many trips to santapod and 5k launches..

 

lol, cant be helped! mine had front mount, HKS filter, chipped, hybrid t28 @1.3 bar boost, exedy six puk clutch, forged rods and pistons (aftermarket) 300 zx injectors and scorpion exhaust.

 

Mine had Nd stg 2 front mount, apexi boost contoller set to 1.2 bar, front exit exhaust( came straight out the turbo though the bumper) wilwoods, tein coilovers and a load of whiteline bits...

 

I love the Jap Slappers, had quite a few. Never really been interested in GTi-R's, but then again never seen one in silver, they are always in black.

Looks like you did a nice job of the bodywork bud, was this from a while back? Doesnt look anything like your gaff that i seen!

 

Absolutly love these am thinking of selling the series 2 and buying another one!! looks awesome in silver too m8

 

Cheers, was about 18 mnths ago mate, when me and ryan shared a garage in montrose, i sold it to put money towards my house deposit.

 

Dont do it! lol, silver, although the most common colour in the world for a car, does look quite fresh on the old GIT r

 

Ummmm i had a skyline purple one only had it 3 months fuel bill killed me lol have had 23 rst's and get bored very easy

 

This is sweet in silver!
My bro had a 400bhp one of these which i wished id bought off him but didnt have the dosh tho.

 

i know the feeling lol! bored easily and the fuel costs

 

a couple mores pics

 

Awesome little car - always wanted one Looks very clean - and that's a pretty sizeable intercooler too!

 

cheers! yeah cant beat a big cooler!
pics before....


AFTER... (looks way better with the intercooler hidden IMO

 

That was a good looking car in silver!

 

its one of he ones i should of kept mate! but ive got a house now so i cant complain, and still manage to mess about with cars.
