1991 Nissan NX2000 2.0 DOHC

Summary:

Small yet practical, and a joy to drive

Faults:

When I bought the car, the AC condenser had a hole and one of the fog lights was out; I replaced both.

Recently my AC compressor broke and I replaced it.

The supports that hold up the back hatch no longer function properly.

Nothing as far as the engine, but the clutch is beginning to slip, which is normal for a high-mileage vehicle, especially since the previous owner (my brother) drove it very aggressively.

General Comments:

Great car, very unique. Guys with their little Hondas or other imports have asked me what kind of car is it, because they have no idea what it is.

Excellent handling and acceleration. Biggest brakes I've seen on this size car, which have saved me from crashing several times.

The interior is very ergonomic. Especially the simple controls and the position of the shifter. As well as the comfortable seats with good lateral support to keep you in good position when maneuvering at high speeds.

Great gas mileage, T-Tops, and a fold down back seat that gives you a lot of extra cargo room, and makes this car ideal for a young guy in college.

1993 Nissan NX2000 SR20DE

Summary:

Very nice ride

Faults:

Rear calipers use to seize up when cold. Replaced those.

Fifth gear use to pop out. Replaced transmission.

Engine died. Replaced that with SR20DET.

General Comments:

Although all that work was done on the car, I still have it. It's good on gas, and since the engine was replaced, I've had no problems since.

1993 Nissan NX2000 2.0 SR20DE

The car is a great project car and fast out of the box

Faults:

CV Joints and Alternator were replaced after purchasing the vehicle (178000 miles) Dash has small cracks.

Runs great, a fun car to drive, suprisingly fast, gives an average mustang and camaro a culture shock. Great on gas.

1992 Nissan NX2000

Summary:

Incredible little 4 banger... will leave and stock Honda far behind

Faults:

Interior:

Back seat not meant for humans, incredibly small, can't actually sit in it if over 5'5". But that doesn't really matter seeing as how me and girlfriend are the only ones ever in the car.

Drivers seat had pretty bad rip, but nothing a nice black seat cover didn't fix... seats are very comfortable over all.

Crack the dash all the way from the front to the back.

Exterior:

Some bad rust on the drivers side door, front bumper is cracked.

CV axle boots were cracking.

Motor mounts is loose, makes a horrible vibration when the car is cold at low RPMs.

General Comments:

For having 144k miles, this car runs like a dream, the acceleration rocks, I can easily leave 20ft of rubber off the line. This car has monster potential. With a turbo, some exhaust and an intercooler, this car can run high 11s, low 12s in the quarter mile... now if can just convince my girlfriend to let me spend a couple grand...

Interior:

Driver and Passenger have very comfortable space in the cabin, but forget the backseat. There is ample leg and head room, Shifter and wheel are in very natural positions.

T-Tops are awsome. I bought this car for $950 and the T-tops alone are worth every cent! The wind is not ear numbing, its just a nice breeze, even at freeway speeds.

Exterior:

Styling is very unique, you won't see anything like this car on the road.

Drivetrain:

Increadible potential... but even stock, one mean little mother. revs easily to 5 or 6000 RPM, good power out of first three gears, haven't really got a chance to max it out yet, but I can get to 60 MPH in third gear...

I bought my 1992 Nissan NX 2000 new for $15,000. I love my baby.

It still turns heads with its cherry red color, nice tires and wheels, bra and shades for the headlights.

Everyone I know has much newer cars, but they just do not compare.

I love it when someone thinks they can pass me on a corner, but I have to replace my 40,000-mile tires at 14,000 miles because of this.

I do not understand why it did not retain the value.

Hey Wats up, I bought my nxr out of a junk yard for 300 dollars and I love it. I recently blew the motor in a drag race, but I wouldn't trade the car for the world. I'm gonna replace the motor and keep on the strip. I'm running the 1/4 in 7.4 seconds so its running

great.

I have '93 NX 2000 with 112,000 miles. It runs great. I need to replace the CV joints and a cracked windshield. It can get as high as 40mpg on the highway if you drive it like a little old woman. If you drive it like it was meant to be driven, gas mileage is more like in the mid-twenties. This car hangs on twisty curves like it is on tracks.

I have a 93 Nissan NX2000 turbo with the Skyline racing chip, and let me tell you about that when your car is all done up like mine, you get so many ladies, plus that's all that matters right?
