Good Points: everything.
Bad Points: rusty arches but can be fixed.
General comments: Had my Nissan Pulsar for 8 years and still got it. Had various other cars, EVO FQ 360mr, Audi RS6, Still prefer the old pulsar.

Once you have owned a Nissan Pulsar GTiR HKS Edition you will understand why you should not buy a sports car over 1 of these. most of your sports cars cannot even compete with a GTiR especially with 400bhp+

I bought a last of the line 2001 HKS Edition GTI-R with optional "Greddy" tuning package. Standard power for these cars is around 220bhp, but mine rolled out of the factory with 400bhp on standard boost. To cope with the extra power I asked Nissan to fit a Nissan Skyline GT-R gearbox, which also means they had to modify the seating position.
The standard clutch is doing fine so far, and I'm finding the standard breaks to be brilliant. I'm still not sure what oil I should be using, but a frien ...

My Pulsar had everything done to it: lightened balanced bottom end, HKS piston, cams, uprated brakes, Suspension 17 wheels, Nismo Dog Box and Nismo rear diffuser. I was running 380bhp (no joke) I raced my mate's Lamborghini and had him up to 100mph (and I mean off the line) I was away and at 103 when he started catching. Any Pulsar with 320bhp or more - nothing on road will touch it (except from the bike and the odd kit car). Also, my pulsar was all stripped out so it was light as a feather, wh ...

Fast as factory standard car! 0-60, 5.5sec
Once you break the 5second 0-60 barrier (which is easy with slight tuning) expect to break something expensive.
Once an engine rebuild has been done expect 50,000+ miles of fun. I'd advise staying close to standard performance.
Insurance is huge! Group 20!
Petrol, I'm doing about 170miles per tank! ~17 miles per gallon!

I have never had a Nissan Pulsar GTiR HKS Edition but I've been in quite a few, and they're pretty quick for a small car.
But if you treat this car with respect, it will munch any car on the road, well except it's father(Skyline GTR a.k.a the Godzilla) because the GTiR are well known as baby Godzillas.

I like the pulsar, I had one for a year, handled like dump, was pretty quick, then I grew up. If your over 19, trust me, you look silly driving it. If you're 17-19, you look like the man. if you are over 19.... not good! I'm 21 now, I've bought a GTO.....

I own a 93 Nissan Pulsar GTiR HKS Edition Sports Car, so far it has embarrased every car who thought it could beat me, the list includes, Subaru s.t.i's, Evo6's, Sierra Cosworths and a Carrera :D, she handles like a dream and flys round corners like a goal cart, she averages 0-60mph in approx 4.4 secs, with 320 bhp crammned into a hatchback nothings touching you lol :D

I own a 1994 Nissan Pulsar GTiR HKS Edition Sports Car and it rocks. Every where I go people want to have a look under the hood. I am very pleased with my car.

I have just aquired a 91 Nissan Pulsar GTiR HKS Edition and to be honest I haven't had such a fun car to drive, Power when you want it but also can be driven very tamely.
It will blow off most cars on the road, the only thing that gave me a problem was a GTR Skyline, which really brought me down to earth

Since having my first Nissan Pulsar GTiR there has been a few problems with it, but that would not ever put me of buying one. I wanted one for ages before I brought mine and it has exceeded all its expectation. It's unbelivable quick and you get a buzz every time you drive it. The only problem is it drinks petrol like there is no tommorrow.

I've driven a lot of fast things and for a production motor this is as good as it gets, forget Porsche, BMW, TVR etc the only car I've had problems with on the street is a caturum 7 and that's only coz he's lighter, any way this car is awesome and if you're over 25 and loaded get one you will need cheek extensions to hold the smile you will have when you boot it. I also advise if you over boost over fuel coz it will melt and if it doesn't melt first the turbo pops any way...

I have a 1996 Nissan 200SX (USA) FWD coupe with a SR20DET from a 1991 GTiR. I spent $1500 (US) for complete engine swap, $735 for proper intercooling (front mount Spearco WAVE), $575 on cams and titanium valve springs, $1300 on SIII clutch and 8.3lb flywheel, and $650 for a really nice valve job...hehehe
I have 426whp and run 1/4 in 10.2sec...not bad if you ask me. By the way I'm located in Texas

I've had my Nissan Pulsar for two years and at first I was amazed by the speed. Now it feels not so quick, perhaps Im just used to it now or perhaps it on its way out. Either way I love driving it and take the long way to work everyday. How do I know if its a HKS edition???

Nissan Pulsar is an absolutely great car what else can you get for £4500 and kick some ass so bad with.
All the Max Power boys in Novas respect you.
Anyhow mine seems to have been reliable anyhow got a local tuner nearby who seems to be good. no problems yet. Apart from trying to get it insured and needing a mortgage to run it!!!

To all the people here who say their car is better...
Get a grip. Most japanese performance cars are fatastic to drive and have their own advantages and disadvantages. People can rattle on saying their car is the fastest-prove it. Go down Santa Pod and then we will respect it. To all the people argueing about the GTiR-MR2 Turbo. STANDARD FORM : 0-60 gtir is supposedly 6.1, but it feels alot quicker than that. Mr2 ranges from 6.2 down to 5.2 depending on which model. My mate has owned a gt ...
