1987 Nissan 200SX review from North America
"It's a sleeper, no one knows its limits"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I am 19 so I drive decently hard.
I have had to replace the clutch, fuel injector, brakeline, rear brakes, gas tank, windshield, spark plug wires and the exhaust.
There are self modifications for extra HP.
General comments?
This is a GREAT car, although I have replaced a lot on it, they were all original parts from 87.
Performance is great, the engine runs like a top and when I pound it to the road it keeps coming back for more. It doesnt even shake when it's up over 200km/h.
