Consumer Description

GRINDING GETTING INTO 2ND AND 3RD FROM 3K RPM TO 6K RPM. NO PROBLEM IF UNDER 3K RPM BUT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION I WAS PURCHASING A "SPORTS CAR". I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR 15K MILES BOUGH USED WITH 40K ON IT BUT AFTER WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I AM WAITING TO SAVE FOR THE CD009 TRANSMISSION SO I CAN REPLACE WITH THE "UPGRADE" AND DO THE CLUTCH ALL AT ONCE. THANKS NISSAN! *TR
