1983 Datsun 280ZX review from North America
"A legend in its own right"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch master cylinder went bad.
Front brakes wear fast.
General comments?
Nice car, all things I have had go wrong with the unit have been pretty cheap to get repaired. Parts are moderately cheap to replace and are easy to acquire as original replacements.
