1990 Nissan Pulsar GTi-R

@ you all talk crap: u really talk bullshit man

my saxo has a k&n filter and a big bore back box and i hit 60mph in 3secs i would wup a pulsar and i would wup a lambo so eat shit cause all dont have a clue about proper cars

Although its getting hard now to buy a a decent example they still represent excellent value for money in terms of both performance and potential. When i purchased my well used model it ran 0-60 in 5.6s and the 1/4 mile in 13.8s on 10 psi with the catalytic converter removed and aftermarket air filter.Next i upgraded the ecu to a Mines unit which was mapped to 1.3 bar and set the boost to 14 psi and ran 0-60 in 4.9s and 13.1s on the 1/4 mile.Then i increased the boost to 17 psi and the car ran 0-60 in 4.4s and 12.85 on the 1/4 mile.
Since then i have put on a new 3' exhaust and turbo manifold with 40mm external wastegate,Intercooler
,and cold air box. The car has now run 0-60 in 4.1s and 12.6s 1/4 mile. I cant wait to get some real engine work done when i have the engine rebuilt :)

quarter mile
13,705sec

hey everyone i have a 1991 GTiR spent about 15k on it and i do low 9s at 22pound these cars are fast

Gtir's are Awesome cars. Way a head of technology at the time. These cars are totally underated and can run 5.6 sec on the 0 - 60 on 10psi. I managed to run a number off 4.2 sec 0 - 60 and 12.8 sec passes on 18psi boost with the stock engine and turbo.
I was lucky to receive it with a tuned Mines motherboard in the ecu.Some GTIR's got them got them factory. I managed 153.3Mph on 15" rims.
These cars are dirt cheap in New Zealand though good examples are probably getting scarce. They start to sell for about $3000 USD up.

The Pulsar has street cred and muscle. This car is about putting some power in a car a working man can afford, and make it faster over time if he cares to.

That's a part of what cars are all about. It isn't just fancy rides.

I wonder how much more tuning a Veyron can handle.

"You can tune a chevy cavalier to 500hp and its still a cavalier. Take you pulsar and drive beside a lambo and see who gets all the looks. The lambo , including you looking at it and your girlfreind. "

Rolleyes,rolleyes,rolleyes!

What are you doing at www.fastestlaps.com if the look of the car is most important to you?
Showcars are for puss***

dude any tuned car can be built to be faster than ANY ca in any actegory, so you shouldnt be braggin how fast yur car is.

and you are supporting your ideas in costs? that is stupid as shit because anyone can take a little garbage car and tune it to the max and still have some cars like lamborghini ferrari and even porsche showing their back lights. tuned ferrari just smokes even the faster car in the planet like saleen s7 or veyron, so shut up!

its freaking boring to see people saying stupid quotes like my FIAT Panda is faster than a Porsche or Ferrari or even Lamborghini... but from what factory? anyway we tune the ferraris porsches lamborghinis engines and the sky is the limit, for you little crap car, the road is the limit. stop boring good people Troy!

You can tune a chevy cavalier to 500hp and its still a cavalier. Take you pulsar and drive beside a lambo and see who gets all the looks. The lambo , including you looking at it and your girlfreind.

The Pulsar will give most cars a run for their money. The amount of times I've smoked Posche 911 turbos, Ferrari's and Lambo's is unbelieveable especially the look on their Mr's faces! Mine is 610bhp, will be running it a Santa Pod real soon. Go Baby Godzilla go!

If the listed car here is good for 62mph in 6.0 you may even see 0-60mph in 5.8 in your car.

Info must be Pommy.
My Jap spec Gti-r weighs 1220kg has 172kw 0-60 5.9sec , and is good for 155mph with the speed limiter removed.

In Japan the Pulsar (known as the Sunny Gti-R in the UK) had 227bhp and 284nm due to higher octaine fuel”

They offer in Japan fuel with more than 104ROZ/RON(thats the highest octan currently avaible in Europe E85), avaible at every gas station is 95-100ROZ/RON in Germany. The 100ROZ/RON V-power and Aral Ultimate is race fuel(F1 use 102ROZ/RON fuel and is 98% indentical with V-Power Ultimate sold in Germany).

In most cases japanese manufactures reduce engine power in europe because of the Autobahn and possible long distance topspeed driving by their customers. Many versions of the EVO and WRX STI for example were only sold with 265hp in order to make the engines long distance full throttle resitant, other problem was to match harder europen emission limits, the reason why they took the RX-7 from the market in Continental Europe in 1996 long befor it was phased out in Japan.

Some call it baby godzilla, although its been quite sometime, but its still a great competitor to rival today's hot hatch.

I think it will be great if someone can actually make a video and bring up this pocket rocket againts todays imprezza or evo, just like TOP GEAR, FIFTH GEAR, HOT VERSION and MOTORING.

0-200km/h 32.6s sportauto 4/1992

Yeah, they are a rare and mostly over-looked car, in fact Nissan were doing "an impreza" before Subaru, but never developed the car further. Due to its 4wd they launch really well, stock 1/4 mile is 13.9secs, but like its bigger brother the Skyline GTR, most are not stock, and usually push out 300bhp, up to and over 600bhp! (or 330bhp in my case). Its a raw and fun chuckable "pocket rocket". Unfortunatly its an old car now (made up until 1994) so trying to get a stock lap time is difficult. I have a Jap vid of a stock car against an R32 GTR Skyline around Tsukuba but its from a standing start so doesn't count.

Wow. This little GTi is pretty powerful. 220 bhp in a hatchback is very very much even today.

In Japan the Pulsar (known as the Sunny Gti-R in the UK) had 227bhp and 284nm due to higher octaine fuel.

There was also a GTi-R RB version which was more of an lightweight RS addition. It had same engine but weighed 1190kg and used a much shorter ratio box, it was geared to 127mph.
