1992 Nissan Sunny SR review from UK and Ireland
"Granny wagon, but can look awesome and are suprisingly quick... I love nissan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed new rear struts and anti-roll bar bushes when I bought it.
Drivers seat had slight wear when I got it.
And the usual japanese rusty wheel arches.
General comments?
This car is very underrated as from the factory it comes with steel wheels and looks a bit like a granny wagon (although it has lovely gti bodykit) a set of 17" alloys with a 60mm drop sorted that out, it looked awesome then!
The bulletproof GA16DE engine in these cars are very good. economy is good with an average of 38-40 mpg.
The performance of the SR is suprisingly quick with a 7250rpm limit and only have 103bhp standard my quickest 0-60 sprint was 7.8 seconds and top speed 125mph which is pretty much the equivalent to a citroen paxo VTS which have 120bhp!!
speeds at rev limit:-
1st 39mph
2nd 64mph
3rd 99mph
4th 120mph (6800rpm)
5th 125mph (unknown revs)
Interior is a bit boring although the seats are very comfortable, but I brightened mine up by spraying some of the panels.
1day I will have the daddy sunny... the GTI-R, how good does "ha ha you got smoked by a sunny" sound.
Sunny's rule!!
