Nissan Pulsar N13 Help - just need a little help  

burnout king

i wouldn't worry about the incar neons and don't get a really stupid looking bodykit and do these to first i need a new windscreen wiper for the passenger side (the other one snapped off)
>raising (car is too low... scrapes going over bumps and around corners)

MJG87

Every N13 body kit is gay. The only kit that looks good is the factory 'Formula' kit of the SVD Astra hatches... good luck finding one

Get Kings Springs Lows. Heres a pic of my old N13 with them:

Interior wise I retrimmed mine in Black/White Vinyl.

Still my favourite looking N13:

maybe get white and black trim inside

Keep ya n13 motor in good shape once u let them go they are nothing but trouble specially the ones in exa's they are notorious for alot of trouble when not well maintained

Pretty basic...

ExodusDesign

Lowered
Wheels
Pod
Exhaust
Stereo

If its just a daily, that'll be all you need

or go all out an throw in a ca18det if you want some much better performance


jump on www.pulsar.org.au if you want advice or help for doing up the pulsar.

EDU57

thats a huge understatement. i've seen even the well maintained ones blow up for no apparent reason. they are a troublesome motor.

for the love of god dont get neons! you get more people laughing at you than saying "hey thats cool". get a simple stereo, maybe a few performance accessories and paint you car. keep the bonnet the same, they look weird with a black bonnet, just paint it white. but yeah, otherwise good luck

my opinion...

1st replace windscreen blade..like $20 from super cheap
buy some standard springs....to stock height.

then i wouldnt bother spending anything else on it. is it your first car?? (this im assuming) and u want 'respect' from GC ppl???

keep it clean and tidy without looking RICEY and TACKY....you will ge the respect when you upgrade to something decent. for the meanwhile...put up with it.

Nvious

SR20DET it.
or CA18DET it.

.. it will cost money though..

another one (mine) was brown smashed and dead stock when i got it

u all suck, and are wrong .
i had a 90 pulsar Q, reved it to 6600 all day every day LITERALLY every gear!!!!
only issue i had was the gearbox didnt like reverse doey's and flat changes.
i did some very simple mods to mine, and was beating most turbo silvia's 180's ect, even some skylines.
call me a liar if you wish, i dont care, i even have it on film, well most of it, batteriers dies (well i dont have it, but a friend does, well had)

where abouts are you, if ur on the gold coast or near i'll chat with you, let you in on some secrets, last time i let them out, it was the most popular mod on pulsar.org, n i'm not even a member .

also forget the ca or sr motors, there is better motors that will keep with the standard settings, as it is an opel motor after all .

Thats a load of bullshit!

considering the N13 pulsars an Exa's had COMPLEATLY different motors.

The ca16de that was in the early twincam exas was the problem. the ca18 had no such problems, the camira 1.8 that was in most of the n13 pulsars just go and go and go, bout the most anoying part about it was the cam "box"

MJG87 - That suspension looks familiar

DRAAGN

No the exa's and the pulsars had the same motor, same engine code ,same manual ,Bit more research needed fella your thinking the older exa's the newer ones eg.91 model they do have the n13 motor same as was in the pulsars they are a pulsar motor

nism0haMz

the 18le motor is a bloody awesome motor. it just goes and goes and never dies even sittin on redline Hhaha. they're an awesome motor.

it you plan to keep it for a while, wat i recommend is, keeping it nice, clean and simple. some king lows will do, some ok rims and fix the things that need fixing. dont listen to him go the ca18det if you want to go all out. why stop at skylines? go modded gtrs and modded evos

here's an old pic of my car durin the conversion process

MJG87

You ignorant fool!

The ONLY Pulsars and Exa's which shared the SAME engine were the N12 ET Turbo, and the Exa Turbo i.e E15-ET, or the N13 Langley Pulsar & SI Exa i.e CA16DE... However, you will probably never SEE a Langley in your lifetime...

N12 Pulsar = E15-E or E15-ET
N13 Pulsar = 16LF or 18LE (The only exception are JDM Pulsars i.e Langleys, which have the CA16DE)
N14 Pulsar = GA16DE or SR20DE
N15 Pulsar = GA16DE or SR20DE
N16 Pulsar = QG18DE

N12 Exa = E15-E or E15-ET
N13 Exa = CA16DE or CA18DE
N14 'Exa' (NX Coupe) = SR20DE (GA16DE in America for some models...)

I think you need to do your research!

TwinCam16

Its ok, if someone thinks i am wrong prove it... DRAAGN Post up the base of your claim please.

fent

just some ideas

DRAAGN

I beleive i may have been wrong not u ,The car info i was looking off is a nissan exa manual but keep in mind the car is imported so that could have something to do with it,In it ,it notes the n13 as a pulsar motor same with the gregory manuals u see at supercheap but as u said it may have been only one particular model of pulsar and may not be a well known model i am sorry if i got my wires crossed i may have needed a little more research

Nvious

FFS, its only a pulsar.

They're crap

*looks at mine* hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahaahahahhaha
chop chop

EDU57

hahaha one of us were going to say it eventually.

that car above looks like sokha's? is it his? look's like motive performance's yard

Nvious

That's not Sohkas...
It's identical..
Yes its at the workshop mike

[MZH-07T]

ask this at pulsar.org.au u will get alot of good replies there but to join u need an email address that isnt with hotmail or yahoo

Nvious

Save up about $5,000 for a conversion.. which includes all the good shiz.

CA18det is a straight bolt in with minor adjustments.

However, SR20DET... its been done before but there's alot of work involved.... might as well buy an N14

EDU57

well that explains it. thats another one Son must be getting sick of n13's by now


chuong is right there. your ca18 goes in pretty easy and there arent too many issues. things to watch out for are you CV boots (will go very quickly!), gearbox. basically all of your driveline needs looking at and upgrading.

also add in about $2000 extra for all those things that dont work out, which they always have. guarantee it. between Nvious and myself i'd say we've seen about 5 or 6 of these things built. i've seen two of them blow up as well that was funny.

Nvious

the one that wazza bought from another guy and brung to son to fix? hahahahahahaha

lolz0r00r0r0r0r0rr0r0r0.

sohka's car is a series 2 q, mine is a series 1 q.

not that many turbo n13's around now in southside area mainly sohka n13, his bro's and mine 2 white and 1 red. most are sold, being sold or complete utter crap.

also my rims are p1s and sohkas are gti rims

ca18det powerrr

Innocent_Commuter

Was an modified SR20DET powered one getting around Capalaba Area. I think he used to work at Zero Limits Performance a long time ago when the shop was still around. That thing was a Monster, Especially when you factor in that they only weigh around 1000kg.
But other than that, i dont condone the modifying of these cars, However i have found that they suit the duties of a daily driver VERY nicely . Good and reliable cars.

OIM.666

Thread cleaned kiddies.

No more name calling and especially no more talk of street racing.

OK.

auzvectra

thats better .
i never mentioned anything about street racing .

there is/was a blue n13 getting round with a ca18det, run a 10 last i saw .
i was there (by chance) when it was getting tuned, and happened to see it at the track.
dont know if it is 1 of the 1's ur all talking about.

i do agree with the early posts but, no body kit's look any good on the n13 , they dont need 1 but, kingspring lows look real good on em, and even just 15's make for a good rim.

Nvious

the n13 that runs 10's........ is... holden astra

[MZH-07T]

lol dont get n14 i had one all it did was break so i sold it to some poor unsuspecting guy he he

EDU57

ah, you have a common problem that most people on here have.

the way to fix this is:

- walk to the front of your car
- kneel down so your in front of the grille
- now look straight and the problem should be circled for you, just like this one


sorry, couldnt help myself


the reason there arent that many turbo n13's in brisbane at all is coz they keep blowing up! they always blow the big end too

Nvious

maybe because you didnt take care of it?
and you bought it from a dodgy person also whom passed it onto you.
mine still good - nothing has fallen off etc etc perfectoe.
