New pics of my Pulsar GTI-R. (Sunlight & Sunset)

Yeah I would be upset if it took that long to get to 100 lol

Even changing the exhaust and filter for something free flowing makes a huge difference to the way these cars pull through the revs. That alone would knock a second or two off that time.

I'm waiting for someone to organise a day at brunters or the like with timing gear so I can set some personal times. Otherwise 0-100 is pure guess work or with a stop watch which isn’t accurate enough.

Thanks for the comments everyone. They do have a peculiar charm!

That looks flippin mint!

Very nice...Am I imagining it or did you have some custom paintjob on it, black with flakes of a different colour in there? Looks almost dark purple in with the black.

Come to think of it, wasn't this car for sale on GTIROC?

I'm sure I've seen a photo of it parked in a street on the forum with the for sale details. Only ask becuase I remember the wheels and the purple tinge - although you couldn't quite make it out in the pics.

Might be complete tosh but I recognise it.

Noooo she has never been for sale while I have owned it, and yes it does have a purple to black effect on the front. As far as I know i'm the only owner with that effect as it was done by my neighbour on a whim while I was getting him to sort a rust bubble

Very nice mate, always had a soft spot for the GTiR
and RESPECT on it revving to 8200, thats impressive for a non-vtec unit. Doesnt the power trail off way before then or does it have a big mofo turbo? And a big mofo exhuast to keep up!?

To be honest, Im tempted to get one next, ticks all the boxes on my wish list

The power peaks about 6800rpm, after that your better changing gear. With a bigger turbo it would probably be more useful, but mines only standard so I never bother taking it past 7000-7500
