Does anyone know a good Pulsar Specialist?
 
I know it's not a Scooby but my friends Nissan Pulsar is dead. He is posting on a Nissan website as well but the more people who can recommend somewhere the better. Basically the engine has given up and flown the nest. He has been quoted £5500 to sort the engine out which we all thought was a bit much.

Does anyone know a good specialist in the Hampshire type area or even a little further away? We can get use of a trailer so transporting it shouldn't be problem. Possibly be better to get a new engine fitted rather than fix the old thing!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Give Graham Durragh at GDA a ring on 01892 740006. He's based just outside Tunbridge Wells.

He maintained my GTIR for 2 years, including a full top end rebuild, after which it ran faultlessly.

He also often has a good selection of 2nd hand bits which can make things a bit less painful.

I think Power station in Cheltenham know a bit about Pulsars, they had 3 in there a few weeks ago having stuff done.

DaveMcC 09 March 2004 04:37 PM

forgot to put in the original post - GDA (used to) specialise in GTIRs, including importing them direct from Japan. Very knowledgable about them.

there are rated

Bondy 09 March 2004 04:39 PM

Great stuff, I'll tell him to give powerstation a try as well!

Steve Whitehorn 09 March 2004 05:03 PM

I also second GDA. Graham knows his stuff.

If he doesn't mind travelling HiTeq (Wigan) are very highly recommended. Very reliable good power rebuilds.

Nisstec in Swansea? long way i guess, but £5500 would buy him another 2 pulsars!

Thanks for all the help guys, I'm going to pass all this info on to him. Hopefully it'll be back on the road soonish.

Yeah, would recommend Nisstec (Formerly SE Nissan) and Hiteq.

Tuning Japanese are in Aldershot, and when I was there for a RR day in Jan, they had 2 GTI-R's in there with big turbos!

Formerly formerly Silvia Engineering too. Try pm'ing a few guys on the gtir forum ;)

GDA get my vote also.
Grahams a very friendly knowledgable bloke. When ever my Impreza been at his place he's had a number of Pulsars in the garage.
