My 2015 Nissan Pulsar (#Projectpulsar)

Seeing as I am very proud of my car I decided to make a forum post all about it.
Ladies and gentlemen meet my 2015 Nissan Pulsar 1.5DCI N-Tec.
I got her back in June 2015 whilst I was working for Glyn Hopkin in Chelmsford, as I worked for a Nissan dealership it made sense to get a new car whilst working there, after driving many different cars there, I had my heart settled on a Pulsar Diesel.
I was originally meant to be getting a 1.2 Dig-T N-Tec in Gun Metal but after a few supply issues and the fact that I needed the car within a week I settled for a 1.5 Diesel N-Tec, I have to say that was the best thing to ever happen now that I look back on it
Here she is on the day she got delivered to the dealership, little did she know she was in for a hard but looked after life. IMG_6074_zpsm6fhjzsa by HRichmondPhotography, on Flickr
I then set about making this Pulsar unique and make it my own.
One of the first things I did to the car was to remove all branding that was associated with Glyn Hopkin, I did this by removing any stickers and getting pressed plates for the car.
I then quickly started to look into getting the 1.5DCI lump remapped, I opted for a tuning box from TDI Tuning which was only round the corner from me as well as being totally removable when it came to possibly giving the car back in three years time.
The tuning box saw the power increase from 108BHP to 142BHP and the torque increased from 191lb-ft to 240lb-ft which made the car feel a lot smoother and also gave me more confidence in the cars performance and knowing that I had more overtaking power than before.
I have been running the tuning box on the car now for over a year and it hasnt put a foot wrong!
Enough for one day. Will post the next part of the story in a few days.
