Not a Nissan Fan

That sucks dood. But, you can still salvage the situation. If you don't mind putting a bit of money in and replacing some key parts I think you will find that you've got a pretty bad *** vehicle.

If the car is stock, get a new clutch and a lighter flywheel with a metal CSC, get a Quaife diff, FI exhaust and a RJM clutch pedal , then tell us how you feel.

^ I agree




And your diff is leaking? Or the subframe bushing?

Don't worry op you aren't the only one who isnt a nissan fan.I will never get into a Nissan again. I will always tell people to get a Honda or toyota instead, even Mazda now.

Funny enough, my RX-8 was in the dealer more times than any car I've owned. My 92 Camry's motor crapped out at 110k miles and I had a Civic where everything but the motor fell apart. Please enlighten us all by naming a mass produced car that has never had a mechanical problem.

...on second thought, you probably just trolling anyways.

Wackkkkkkkk


I still think Nissan makes the best cars. Point blank period.

JungleZ

Honda and Toyota are in another league when it comes to quality , build, resale value . A couple issues on their part is nothing compared to Nissan bs.

TheGreatOne

Bit of a stretch to say "another league" when statistically when the topic of "reliability, quality and resale" come up, Nissan is always up there.

But again, possibly trolling as mentioned by another member...so I shall remain calm lol. I mean...you actually said Mazda...lmao

dumby doesnt know that honda is under investigation for alot of potential recalls including the latest one which involved brakes automatically engaging in their honda odyssey vans...yeah big time quality there not to mention the recalls over the years for toyota vehicles...hell even toyota's CEO mr. toyoda himself says they need to up their game in the quality department lol

Cmike2780

Well if you're gonna use those silly rankings, why not include the part where KBB gave it the Best Resale Value Award in '10, JD Power's Highest Ranked Compact Premium Sporty Car in Initial Quality in '09.....

....the point is, those things are mostly bs to begin with. Every car will have a mechanical issue sooner or later. The problems with the Z are relatively scarce and/or widely known where a fix is available. Just because some journalist marks it as the most reliable car on the planet, doesn't make it indestructible. Also, I think the Camaro has been winning the resale value moniker for this segment for a few years now.

A car can achieve a high resale value if a lot of people think it has a high resale value.

That ain't no lie!
My civic was the rattliest car I've ever owned, new or old. My Tacoma's headliner and door skins were coming apart in its first six months. I don't care how long an engine may last if the car's a POS otherwise.

Z_ealot

lol, have to agree with the civic part...my 96 which i currently own sounds like a freaking tin can being dragged down the street when you start it up from a cold start, mostly due to the exhaust rattling the back end of the car until the car warms up a little. Other than that though it does great on gas and the engine is pretty much in pristine condition for a 96 and returns over 40mpg regularly on the highway and a hair over 30 in the city. as for build quality i can't agree at all with what jungle has to say about anything. As for OP, i hope you can get things worked out man, one rotten apple doesnt always spoil the whole barrel is all i have to say.

DEpointfive0

No way... You posted too???
We all know I have REAL car problems, but I tried fixing or alleviating them,

Your problems have arisen because you're being too damn lazy in a car YOU leased (like your clutch sucks and you didn't even KNOW about the helper spring and when you take it out report how much better the car is)

You get 12-14MPG and somehow you don't have fun, you just blame bad gas mileage I RAPE my car and get better mileage, you gotta be lying to us

And as much as I hate my Nissans, I still like the community, and I still like HELPING, your posts are bullshít now... Well... Since always

I've had 49 cars since the 80's. About 10 of them Nissan/Infiniti. Most reliable and trouble free of all my brands. And I've had multiple vehicles within a brand - had 11 Jeeps. 5 BMW's. 3 Volvos. 4 Infinitis. Some great, some not so great.

Brands that include:

Audi
BMW
Volvo
Nissan
Infiniti
Oldsmobile
Pontiac
Jeep
Ford
Range Rover
Jaguar
VW
Among them.

Hate the ISSUE or the particular car - not every car or the brand.

It's a shame you are having issues- and we all feel badly for you for that. But for every 1 member on here, there are 50 who have no clue what a forum is.

wow... ive had like 49 matchbox cars... some great, some not so great.
