1989 Nissan 240SX SE review from North America
"I would buy it again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission seal.
Fuel injectors (all 4).
A/C compressor.
Clutch.
Master cylinder.
Other high mileage normal stuff (clutch, alternator, water pump).
General comments?
This was a great car. It was extremely reliable, fun to drive because it's rear-wheel drive and handles well. It was bad in the snow and rain.
The engine could have used a bit more horsepower, but the 5 speed helped.
Parts tend to be expensive.
