1992 Nissan Pulsar review from Australia and New Zealand
"A pocket rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Turbo manifold gasket blew at 120,000 kilometres.
Gearbox became unreliable at 128,000 kilometres.
Tyre's wear very fast.
Extremely easy to break into (locked the keys in the car).
General comments?
This car is very very fast and handles like its permanently stuck to the road.
Sounds awesome with an aftermarket exhaust.
Easy to drive.
However there are two major blind spots.
Gearbox feels stiff.
Very difficult to work on because of the lack of room in the compacted engine bay.
Looks awesome.
Has anti lock brakes and air conditioning.
Interior has a sporty/leisurely look about it.
