1990 Nissan 300ZX Turbo review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
AIV valves, TWICE, once at 64k, the other at 116k.
Transmission went at 122k.
Turbo at 89k (and acting odd again).
General comments?
I won't lie to you, this car is sweet when it's running well, it's fast. Reliability on the other hand, kinda iffy. I know many will say it's not true (they must be lucky), but two of my friends also have these cars, only slightly newer.. and the same problems occur.
Comfort could be a little better as well.
Don't get me wrong, I like this car, but I won't be very sad when I let it go.
