N12 Turbo Forums

Been off work for the last few days so got some work done on the pulsar. . . . It just gets worse n worse. Took the wheels off and to my suprise, almost every wheel stud is stripped due to the wrong wheel nuts being used. So replacing those with longer studs tomorrow. Anyone in NZ got a set of mags ...

what colour is the smoke?

Seriously?!?!!?!?!? bloodly hell, what fíng idiots! hope they read this as well. . . . still got a bargain regardless. Got 2 spare motors and more than enough bits and pieces to build something even better than what it was like before.


No worry guys, this car is in better hands now lol

Decided to pull the head off the engine today and got a nasty suprise. 1 and 2 cylinders were filled with oil, looks like the engine has been put through hell, bores are a mess.

Will be either rebuilding the engine or doing a engine conversion, maybe a ka24de+t from a aussie assembled u12 bluebird

Well..i jinxed it. the turbo is f'ed. Oil all through it, started smoking like hell. sigh. luckily I have a standard turbo and manifold for the mean time.

I have a front/rear lip kit F.S. bro. Would look wicked as. Brand new from Pulsar Parts in Aus. Car definately needs someone to finally start looking after it! Hope you're the dude! How much for just the front lip? Yeah, this car hasnt really been looked after, body wise anyhow. Engine on the other...

omg matt black - what a waste eh? nicely done dude, yellow is much better than matt black :) Yeah got that right man, awful colour. Sad thing is, alot of modified cars here in chch have been painted matt black. Ive found a cheap s14 intercooler with piping, anyone ever used one before on their n12?...

thought i recognised the car, it's this one isn't it? http://forum.n12turbo.com/viewtopic.php?t=1114 Colour is nice but i must say i preferred the OG look haha. good luck with your new purchase dude! Yup thats the one. Wasnt that colour when I purchased it though, was painted matt black. Too tacky ...

nice colour bro! dont put those 17s on, get your current wheels polished - they're cool! what's with the piping from TB -> turbo? that thing is crazy :S I'm guessing it's an old pic seeing as you have FMIC now? interesting radiator placement too.... bet you have heaps of room in there now! would be...

Does anyone have a haltech f3 ecu in their n12? If so, got any useful tips for tuning? or a fuel map that you could send me? I have one in mine and have never played around with aftermarket ecus before, need to get it drivable since I am moving shortly. Cheers.

Good purchase, how much did you pick it up for? If ya need any parts I'm stripping a complete Milano :) Actually, yes there are a few parts I need. Missing a few important bits like drivers side seatbelt buckle, rear seat mounts. aint going far without the seatbelt buckle haha. Have added you on msn.

probably just going to get cheap copy at the moment and only run 7psi since its going to be used as a daily for awhile. couple of months time will get a geniune tial and intercooler, see what sort of boost i can get out of it after that

600. Came with tons of spare parts, 2x motors etc.


Only parts I really need at the moment is a external wastegate, 38mm.
