1991 Nissan 200SX review from UK and Ireland
"Affordable Porsche chaser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bottom end went foo bar, cheaper to have repacement engine @ £1000 than to repair, new turbo and clutch fitted with engine replacement: total cost £1850. Sunroof sqeals when down at high speeds ;-)
General comments?
Fitted K&N induction kit & Mongoose SS exhaust system, 17" Smith's 5 spokes with 215 X 45 Yokahoma A520 tyres with more engine mods on the way. Now makes the right noises and it takes corners like it's on rails.
A very under rated car, it will blow away most in its class. I've had a timed 6.5 0-60. Interior a bit dull but on the outside it's a different beast. It also grumbles a bit when it's not run on Super Unleaded.
