Hi peeps I have been a bit of a lurker just happy enough to look at other peoples cars. I thought it was maybe time to show what I drive. I have been into Pulsars for 5 years now which is a long time considering I am 26. I just cant bring myself to sell the thing.
It is not just a car but a sponge for money too. O well.
It is my second one which I have had for 3.5 years.

This next pic is a year old.

Having a bath.

Its currently running 440bhp.

Cheers

Mark

440 bhp, a real pocket rocket then. I remember watching a modded Pulsar destroy a V10 Dodge Viper on a motoring programme a few years back, very capable little cars, MUCH RESPECT to you my friend.

I imagine that's quite nippy!

Are these 4wd? How do you find it in the twisties?

I was about to post the same thing, then scrolled down ... that was VBH in the Viper against the GTIR, on 5th Gear, IIRC?

Great looking car, and 440bhp to boot, literally!!

I had a standard (220bhp) model of this about 10 years ago and it still holds a special place in my heart. Would have another without a moment's hesitation.

Generally not a Jap fan but I'd love to own one of these and a Skyline GTR 32/33/34.
Love these especially with the intercooler as you have it hanging out the bumper.

Cheers for the comments. I have not been stopped yet for the plate. I do carry the full size plate in the boot. I have done nearly every modification on the chassis you can do. It is superb. It is more oversteer than understeer. I am glad you like it. It is a labour of love.
