Hi all,
With much regret I am forced to put my R up for sale, moved out of my parents and with the other half nagging I have to sell up as the insurance for three cars (two been pulsars) and space is just not working out. Although I am in no rush to sell as this is a fine example with sensible modifications and a key method has always been followed which is "keep tings simple" which makes it really driveable and also an extremely quick R.
The members R thread is here which explains everything that has gone on in my ownership http://www.gtiroc.com/forums/showthread.php?65580-Toms-Second-Pulsar-GTiR
The vehicle has MOT until August 12th 2014 and 4-5 months tax. I do have the original Rota alloys which came with the car, will update this all with the correct info tonight.
looking for £4000 I have seen tired examples with the right spec fetch similar prices not so long ago and I do still believe that in this world you spend that little bit more and you get a lot back, a lot of people end up buying a cheaper car and spending well stupid money. I did this myself and the receipts for this car tally up into the thousands. All previous receipts from Opie oil bills to the turbo and ancillaries are present dating right back to the original buyer.
I will be hosting a website for pictures, this will include up to date pictures taken this week (latest on members thread) and also some past pictures from the previous owner Frit from the anniversary meet, the engine rebuild etc. Please keep your eye on t

Previous Owner Pictures
The engine was completed by the previous owner, he bought a short forged engine from gtir-loz which had a damaged thread so the engines were taken apart to make one good running forged engine. Unfortunately the HKS pistons in the new engine were 87mm whereas the Arias were 86.2ish meaning the block would need a rebore for them to fit, so the decision was made to fit the Arias pistons along with the crank and rods from the new engine.
