1992 Nissan Presea R10 review from Singapore
"Good - Note: Using British English"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power Steering system failed at 230,000km
Shocks, tyres and rims changed at 231,000km
Alternator failed at 235,000km
Clutch slipped/failed at 231,000 and 250,000km.
Radiator/Engine Pipe leaked causing 2nd alternator failure.
Clutch seems to be slipping again! Nissan makes lousy stock clutches.
General comments?
Putting 205mm width tyres with Momo rims makes this car very enjoyable in corners and above 160kmh.
Pity the speed limiter kicks in at 190-192kmh.
Low profile (45) tyres + Monroe shocks give the car a sporty (harsh) ride, but is very good for handling
The car sits low (1320mm) and makes the driving experience more sporty
Engine is very lively above 3500rpm, and between 5000-6500rpm, there is a VTEC-like surge.
I love the look and performance of the car, and intend to keep it as long as possible.
Hoping to add a turbocharger and other modifications to increase the performance of the car.
