Default Nissan 200SX Turbo - how cheap!?

7-8 yr old 200SX turbos seem amazingly cheap. Okay, they're a Nissan and the styling is sh1te, but surely this is a lot of car for the money?

I'm guessing they must be pretty reliable, but are they easy to tune and are they fun to drive?

Anyone had one and would they recommend them?

Yes, yes and yes!

Lot of car for the dosh. I had a mint(ish) 94(S13) and it was all of the above.

The later S14s are a lot more modern and more reliable. A few hundred quid sees 260bhp+ also. JUst be v careful the first time you boot it in the wet

Can vouch for the wet part, best leave it home when its raining!!!.... I had a s13 and sold it after 10 months, it was starting to go wrong, the engine was loosing compression and needed money thrown at it left right and centre, mine was a 94 with FSH aswell, be careful nice looking cars with decent power but potential money pits.

Remember these cars were £30,000 new... and now they are around 200-5000 pound!
Bargin, but there are plenty of rough ones around
