1991 Nissan 240SX SE review from North America

"Buy one, (S13 is best choice in my opinion) or pray God blesses you with one in heaven!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

-Cable for the gas tank broke, but its easier to reach in the back and open with my have rather than spend $50 to fix.

-Powered antennae broke (think it fell off track cause the motor still works), but it picks signal up just fine with it down.

-Cloth seats are starting to tear up, but it IS 15 years old.

-Rattle in the exhaust, but it could be my fault for ripping off the resonator.

-I believe the synchronizers for the 4th gear in the transmission are going bad.

General comments?

My uncle had this car before me for like 6 or 7 years, and I always knew I wanted that one, so he gave it to me when I turned 16. It’s a ’91 S13 SE hatchback (came with hicas system and lsd) and runs like a hauss.

I have never been more in love with a car than I have this one.

It handles like a champ and makes darting around traffic an easy task. Just put on a front and rear strut bar and body roll becomes next to nonexistent.

Came with the ka24de engine, which was originally a truck engine in the Nissan hardbody pickup. Gets great gas mileage 25/28, but I put a cold air intake on it so normally it would be like 24/27 or so. Loads of low-end and so easy to build up now with a turbocharger since people discovered how a great an engine it is.

Didn’t have a very good sound system, but some pioneer 4x6’s and 12” subs solved that nicely.

One of only 2 cars I would never get rid of. However I probably won’t ever get the other so I won’t have to wry about getting rid of it. L (Black, Nissan Skyline GT-R 34, preferably the Nur model or most recent)
