You mean the 180kph limiter?

Shouldn't be. Mine was a 20 minute job and a £50 box to sort out.

Yep, that's the chicken.

Buy the box, find the ecu. Snip a wire and solder the box in. Done.


or in my case, find a garage to do it lol ta muchness

Has it got upgraded brakes?


No idea m8, i havent seen it and he hasnt seen mine yet, we are still in talks at the mo, the car is compleatly standard so would bigger brakes be an issue?

iirc most owners say they could do with some sort of upgrade- like decent discs and fast road pads, they are the weakest part of an otherwise brilliant car.


thats one i am a little worried about, is it a better car than the williams ( which i love )

Dunno, haven't driven a Wiliams or a GTiR.

How do you define better?


well the williams is a fantastic car, arguebally the best hot hatch ever, but i find it too good, its perfect, it doesnt scare me anymore coz i know it can take the bend etc, but i think the pulsar will be different and will have to be given more respect haveing about an extra 100 hp ( i think ). does that make sense? lol
