1989 Nissan 240SX review from North America
"This car is very excellent for racing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator went bad at around 180,000 miles.
The clutch started to have a rattle, but after a while it went away.
General comments?
This is very quick and usually does not have problems. When I bought this car it had no problems.
I have not put any upgrades on it, but it is quick enough already that I do not have to worry about it losing. It is much quicker than a Civic, V6 Mustang, and other various 4-cylinders.
It is not that often to have and import that is RWD.
