The water pump failed at 110,000 miles.
The clutch blew at 130,000 miles.
The power steering creates noise.
The 240sx is a great car to drive. The torque creates a quick acceleration, but the lack of top end power keeps the 240sx to be a contender to the other cars only at lower speeds.
The top speed when the fifth gear rev-limiter kicks in is 115mph. this creates a problem when racing against a prelude or an integra. But the 240sx has no worthy competitors when it comes to sharp turns.
I have taken 25mph turns at 70mph. And that is without any suspension performance parts added.
The interior of the 240 is very pleasing to the eye. the gauge cluster has a great setup.
The front seats are extremely comftirble. The rear seats on the other hand should be used for a grocery self instead of seats.
The body lines on the 240sx are intoxicating and beautiful.
Hi. I have a 91 240SX. I LOVE it!!!
I just bypassed the speed limiter by going to the ECU under the kick panel on the right under-dash and cliping the 8th wire down on th LEFT. Green with yellow stripe.
Speedo still works, Tach still works and no dirogitory symptoms.
I ordered a 180MPH speedo this morning...I'll let ya know. hehe hahahahaha...

I have to agree. My 95 240SX was bought new and now has 219,000 miles on it. It has never had any major problems, it still looks great, rides great and I will probably drive it until it turns to dust. I love this car!!!
