It's a little rusty and has some problems, but It was cheap!142k miles, all stock, and white = $1800.It's too bad the engine is so solid. (cause imma swap it) and the trans shifts so smooth (makes me wanna leave it alone), but boost is calling me. In the form of 1.8 liters.Yes, it has some rust. on the quarter panels. It didn't eat through though. Looks like I'm gonna learn to bondo and fiberglass my way to a clean car.The top doesn't close all the way. It comes really close, but I then have to yank it closed. I have adjusted the hooks, but that didn't do much, I hope there is another way to adjust it. the drivers quarter window leaves a gap when up. It may be the top not closing all the way that causes this. The window rolls up fine, but leaves a gap toward the rear.The drivers door hangs a bit and doesn't trip the interior lights sensor when shut (so I have to push on it). It also catches the weather stripping on the quarter window. Maybe that has something to do with the gap between the quarter window and the top?The wipers don't shut off once turned on. that one boggles the hell outta me.The brake pedal used to pulse, but doesn't anymore?!? I was a bit scared when coming to a stop. It never fell to the floor, just pulsed?!?It still has the factory tape deck! And a Beach boys tape came with! Only the front speakers work though.I think that's about it. Oh, and it handles just as good as my coupe! 200 more lbs and no problem cornering! I guess Nissan did good with their underbody bracing.Pics tomorrow, cause well, It's dark and they won't show well through my camera phone.
