[vss irvine]

build my car! all will be revealed soon!

 

[gtir_pimp]

bodywork, 2 rust bubbles to repair,rear bumper to be resprayed, and bonnet sprayed blue like the rest of the car (i have a black bonnet). 2 front tyres ASAP and tax!!! be happy at that and save and spend money on other things for once like my crosser and kitchen in my flat needs doing

Hopefully to actually get to drive it in 09, only managed 3 months on the road in 08 :doh:

 

[Davie Houston]

My plans are to get ma rear arches re-done as their rusting away, plus passenger side is eating away at itself since it sat for 3 months.
Looking at a GT2871R or GT3071 not sure yet.
Z32 and a set of injectors

And main priority is get ma teins re furbed, one of the rears is starting to sweat a bit.

Sitting in the garage. ;-)

 

[MORF114]

-Finish niggly bits off to get it road legal.
-More boost and if im still not happy a bigger turbo and injectors.
-Side exit exhaust aswell which ill be making up in the next few weeks depending on how quite i can make it exiting in front of rear wheel.

[Braveheart]

I'm going to do what I should have done through 2008.
Too big a list to type up right now but I will start working on it as soon as the new year hangover subsides.

Merry Christmas to ALL and all the best for the coming New Year!

 

[leemh]

sell it

 

[Adam L]

None, sold it... It cost me too much in the first place:lol:

Got massive traction problems with my new car, but that's not for this forum

 

[pulsarboby]

my car has just been granted another lifeline for about the 10th time:lol::doh:

was seriously considering doing a mr blobby did and bailing out with using it as a track car (after spending thousands on it)and buying one of these things
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=330296149083
but not such a good idea when i looked into the cars history, with thanks to rishi for pointing me in the right direction;-)
and i aint got the money to buy a good straight one for track use only:sad: the mrs would kill me.

so looks like im gonna persevere with the jap monster and rip the engine out again to fit the new crank ive just got, amongst a few other mods i have in mind!

 

[GTIR-LOZ]

fit my ignition amplifier and coil
lots of paint and bodywork!!!

 

[vss irvine]

bob i think you should buy the noble, then ill come to your first track day and show you why you should have kept the pulsar!!!!

 

[campbellju]

Fit driveshaft and windscreen ^^^^^ ;-):lol::lol:

Get MOT, rest under car cover for another year. After going in Stu's recently I can honestly say I laughed harder in a GtiR than a 911 Turbo or a GTR so it gets to live a bit longer. Technically inferior but funnier :lol::lol:

If I was still around, I would be copying Dan(dud)'s brake setup and Andy (Fubars) sticky tyres, good, interesting stuff gents.

 

[pulsarboby]

bob i think you should buy the noble, then ill come to your first track day and show you why you should have kept the pulsar!!!!

tbh theres no way a gtir could live with one of those on the track, they are a serious bit of kit for not a lot of money.
and there pretty reliable too (so ive heard)
when my cars done 'again':roll::lol: im gonna go on a trackday where one of these babies are and see if i can whoop it but if im honest i think il be eating bits of rubber as it nails past me:lol:

weighs less than gtir
425bhp on rear wheels
2 x t28 turbos
superb handling
baffled sump, oil cooler etc etc
low centre of gravity
nice wide stance
and all that with reliability8)

basically all the things that our little jap monsters arent, so no competition in the real world:lol:
