1989 Nissan Sentra User Reviews

Owned one of these before, hands down the Toyota out handles and powers this nissan.

Great For A First Car —

Preformance- it is not a Skyline, but it isnt a 1400. i think the car will get down to 9.5-10 sec to 100km/h if it has weber twin sidrafts with a 30mm branches and a 57mm freeflow exhaust. it sits on the road rather well if you take it's age in perspective. Build Quality-Rather good i think. the engine is still running great and everything is still working. the only drawback is that the rubbers are starting to perish and giving problems. Appearince- whel if you are into box shape cars then this is the car is for you. personaly this is one of the best looking cars. its not what you call pretty but it has a tipe of coolnis about it. the interior is good but can do with some work but it is much better than one of these cheap cars of to day. Cost of ownership- i do not know how much it cost but it is not expensive to owne. lite on feul (not like i drive it) and realy not expensive to do maintanance Fun factor- Depends if you look at it from a driving side yes you feel like you are connected to the road. it is not fun when your moyher drives the car. but when you trick it out like neons souns then its a diffrent story.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Old Faithful — 326.000 miles. No repairs just clutch changes and replace front and rear seal to resolve oil leak. timing chain changed at about 200,000 miles. still using. Paint faded (sleeps outdoors, never been in garage)Commute 52 miles daily. still going.

Nissan Sentra — Didn't hold up to damage too well. Not the prettiest looking car. Engine runs very nicely though. Interior was roomy so i had no complaints there. which is good

Quick, Sporty, Fun, Reliable, And Fuel Efficient — Thought the car only has a 1600cc engine in it, it's a very light body. The sport coupe model came with dual sway bars and a fastback hatch style.
