Bought new CAR!!! |
Wed 22 Jun 2005 04:10:36 PM |
ok for those who dont know i bought me self a GTIR pulsar. i know it aint a micra but i like to think of it as the bigger brother of a micra. its a whole bundle of fun to drive and damn when ya put ya foot down it sucks down the juice very fast. but also takes of very nicely but anyway its a nice car ill post up some pics when i get home from work if i get a chance.
my plans for the car are: *2 3/4 or 3 inch mandrel stainless exhaust. (have friend who can weld. and can get stainless cheap) *front mount intercooler *apexi or power fc *raise boost to 10psi *a few suspension mods *high flow the turbo it may take a long time to do but ill do it eventually |

If anyone else is looking to get themselves into a Pulsar, I can assist them into getting into a rather nice 1995 Pulsar SSS!!! =D GL with it, i hope it doesnt cost ya too much mechanically! |

Congrats Brendon, although I can see that "planned 10psi" moving up to somewhere closer to 15-20 once you get used to it heh.

Yeah nice wheels Brendon. Go the upgrades and what do you reckon Cisco? we make Brendon an honorary Micra member and we will not delete his posts.

i bought it for a very very good price off my brother.
he spent 5.5k on it bringin it up to scratch and now he dont want it he wanna be out of debt. in past 6months things been replaced are: clutch with heavy duty clutch. new gearbox only done 10000km all piping water and fuel lines water pump. cv joints. bearings and pulleys been changed. spark plugs and leads. new tyres. so hopefuly not much more can go wrong but it probably will. and yes GTIRs can become very expensive to own. but the passion for cars should keep me going i hope. well maybe till im bankrupt anyway |

FYI, standard boost on GTiR is 10psi. If you've only ever getting 6 or 7psi then there is something wrong with the factory solenoid wastegate bleed.
15psi is fine on the standard T28, internals, injectors etc. |

Hey Guys,
my 2cent worth A SR20DET engine runs @ about 7-8 psi stock depending on how cold the weather... With the exhaust you probably want to look at a Twin Dump pipe as this is where most the power from a SR20DET comes from... also c if you can find a S15BB turbo 2nd hand and this will give you alot of power just bolting on the turbo and gie you heaps more response...I would probs steer away from bleed valves as they are cheap as nasty..the stock cooler is fairly large on a GTi-R so you should go 3"inch exhaust with Twin dump pipe if you can Electronic Boost controller 1Bar of boost should b fine all day everyday with a SR Serious Suspension work (coilovers are cheap these days) S15T28BB turbo... If you need any parts contact me as i bring in parts direct from Japan D |

You will also find that your car will b fairly fast with these small mods aswell
Power FC should b a step you take alot further down the track as the Stock computer in SR20DET's cope nicely with mods D |
