As above we just went out and bought a brand new style STi, Should be picking it up this week or early next.

Test drove it last Saturday and it was fantastic around the twisty back roads, It wont set the world on fire as far as out right speed goes, Well not compared to 500 bhp Pulsar but it's fast enough, And they will be bringing out the pro drive pack soon enough :twisted: .

My pulsars for sale on piston heads if anybody is interested in a 517bhp monster :wink: .

Fair play Rob. A little surprised you're selling up to be honest. What prompted the change?

Please bear in mind that I've spent over 60k building this car when you look at the price matey.

I'm going to start breaking it up for parts after next weekend because I doubt anybody will want to pay that for a pulsar, Even though it would probably cost them at least 30k to get anywhere near the spec of mine.

I'm 44 now mate and I want to experience all the new cars I can before I get to old to enjoy them :oops: :-D .

Will be nice to be able to just jump in and go for a blast, Very high powered cars do take a lot of looking after and I'm just tired of it all now, I'm also planning on buying an old 260Z if I can find a very good example.

I saw one the other morning, in blue. I have to admit I wasnt a fan when I saw the pics but seeing one for real I thought it was quite nice !!!

Much more subtle looking like a hot hatch and seems to get very good reviews in the jap mags recently. Think both this and the Evo are getting less coverage because of the new GTR coming out.

Well done mate, nice to be different. Definitely the first one on the forum !!!!!
