1987 Nissan Pulsar review from North America

Fuel sender replaced.

New Rack and Pinion at 125000.

Both half-shafts.

All speakers blown out.

Waterpump at 125K.

Next to fix: Heater core and oil leak.

Cool looking, cheap car that I don't worry about too much, but is fun to drive running errands. My family bought the car new in '86, when the '87 model first came out, and my sister drove it in college, and then my mom, dad and youngest brother both drove it for many more years, and now I just took it over. I have gone over the car, and replaced anything that needed to be done, including new hi-performance speakers for the cd player, rack and pinion, timing belt and waterpump, and went a step further to lower it 2 inches, add 17 inch wheels with 40 series tires, paint the rear hatch to match the still shinny white paint. (The white cars came with a dark grey trunk, that made it look like a part off another car.) It has an oil leak, and from what I am gathering, the engine and transmission need to come out of the car in order to reseal the pan..........I'll get around to that later.
