1989 Nissan EXA N13 review from Australia and New Zealand
"The best car ever, nothing comes close"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car was stored in a hay barn so it had some usual things wrong. Radiator hoses and a heater hose needed to be replaced, rats had chewed through a power steering boot and a couple of CV boots were split, rust, and some other small things like small removable interior button covers missing etc.
But I have been going trouble free for well over 9 months now.
General comments?
Great fun car to drive! Responds well to intake and exhaust modifications. Great looking with removable targa tops and rear hatch for full open cruising. with my suspension setup it corners like nothing I've driven before. easy CA18DET conversion which I am doing soon. I thoroughly reccomend it, I have owned an n12 exa before too which was also a great car. EXA is my favorite car and I am never going to sell it :) check out mine at www.cardomain.com/id/android360 and the Nissan exa club at www.nissanexa.com.
