When I bought the car the clutch was slipping so new clutch had to be bought and fitted. Since then nothing has gone wrong with it apart from a few things which I should have checked when buying. Remember to listen out for big ends if buying, don't disregard this. If you are looking to buy I very strongly suggest you visit an owners club like www.sxoc.com and learn about big ends and what they sound like. This is the biggest problem they have and usually the main reason for sale.
Best car I have ever owned. Since buying mine 5 friends/associates have also bought them due to being in mine. They are fun, very fast high performance cars. Standard they feel fast enough, but modding to Stage 1 or further brings lots of fun. I am now at stage 2 with 270bhp (about £600 worth of mods) and you can't beat it, literally. Small money spent on a 200sx can easily beat anything up to the top skylines. Just respect it and always be careful in the wet, the 200sx has a thing for catching you out on roundabouts too so take it easy! The 200sx is a real drivers car, don't expect it to forgive you!
I just bought a 200 sx allready tuned to 255,I've played around and now I'm running just over 300,pricey, but worth it. Its by far the best car I've ever driven and would reccomend it to anyone. I LOVE IT I LOVE IT.I'm yet to find out if it will beat anything, but nothings beaten me in 3 months and believe me many av tried scoobies, lancers, boxters, bring em on. Good on you all keep up the tweeking. I want to know how far 1 of these will go.
