cheers Leighton but just gonna wait on them to find me one now as ive already paid the money over

Yeah i know just thought id pop them up to show there is quite a few of them over there the harder part was finding m/t 90% of them are auto's

yeah im not too bothered whether auto or manual because if auto il just convert it to manual, its not like ive not got the parts to do it lol

Lol i wasnt sure if the chasis was different as such like the sunny to pulsar with the different floor pan for the box are they all the same on the rasheen ?

yep chassis is exactly the same but the engine side is different with the auto box as the engine block is not recessed enough to allow for the gtir transferbox as the autobox throws the transfercase out slightly further
but that's all irrespective as il be changing the entire engine and transmission

well ive now bought 2 of them lol

im building monster jeeps from now on  

Lmao any links to your new purchases  or do we have to wait to see them ?

  Bob you nutter! Haha!

Cant wait to see this creation, and I seriously can't wait to see the look on people's faces when you come flying past  

you need to leave it looking satandard on the outside, then watch peoples reactions  

haha
managed to track the guy down and buy this one which rob had put the link up for in the first page of the thread, cost me a few quid more than it went for in auction but it does look to be a goodun, nice n ugly just how I want it to be

itll be left totally stock..................on the outside other than spotlights and fat rims dropped on coilovers, but underneath and under the bonnet itll all be a changing big time.

the other im importing is coming from Nagoya in japland but have no details or pics as of yet but newera have already purchased the car for me today

Thats pretty cool  i messaged that bloke but he never got back to me ..... i can see it now poodling down the road ....then "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT  JUST PASSED ME " lol its going to be awesome i think ... you reckon with the extra hieght you could shoe horn the r35 lump in it ? Or are they the same hieght as a pulsar ?

no the problem with the pulsar chassis is the width between theturrets and the lengh / wheelbase, it could be done but the expense involved would be huge so il stick with the sr20 lump and run the supercharger on it, couple that with the whine from the straight cut gers in the dogbox and itll sound absolutely awesome and go like a missile

Oh right my bad i thought it was more the hieght issue not so much width ...anything can be done with lots of money thrown at it but not always viable or cost effective for the pocket lol .

When you picking it up Bob?

gotta pick the first one up next Wednesday from devon so bloody long drive to go get it
the other will arrive at Southampton docks which should be around a couple of weeks time


yes Leighton its not just the depth its the width too, far too much work and money involved to sort that out

A nice drive though if you go down the A303, my brothers been down there twice in the last month in our company lorry.

You really are a crazy mother fucker, that is the worst looking car ever...but I can't wait to see it go lol

you are kidding me pete  the west country is a nightmare drive, I would much rather drive to Geordie land.
 
hes not due down there next week is he?





haha ugly is good marky, makes me look prettier that way  

I don't think so, but I'll check   I love driving down there, always go that route to Cornwall.

Sound that there pete is offering one of thems free rides bob   .... ive drove down there to lands end years ago .... i found it a really long boring drive although it was at night after a days work ....so it was to dark to see any sights ...

I would as well Leighton if I weren't working  

cheers pete, if hes going down that way and has an empty load on way back then im more than happy to pay him to collect it and save me the dreaded journey

I asked the boss and he's not going that way anytime soon I'm afraid. Have a fun trip
