I'm having a issue with my vehicle steering rack/Tie rod. Recently I did a wheel allignment, unfortunately I can't turn steering weel as I turn to the right side (Vehicle can turn to right side al most 90' degrees but left turn is onle 45-50 degrees). A mechanic told me that this vehicle is having a steering rack of nissan FB13 so it is not suitable for toyota corolla. What I can do to get this issue sorted. Can this fixed by changing tie rods or Power steering rack? If I change power toyota Corolla EE90 steering rack (reconditioned) How much does it cost?
Restoring a 90's Diesel.
Gentlemen, What are your thoughts on doing a soft-resto on an unhacked Nissan SB14 that has been sitting around for 8 years?
1997 car registered in 2000. Manual gears, 2L CD20 diesel. Single owner -Decased. Family who are known to me - dont use it. Unhacked body and almost pristine interior. Clean body lines, no accidents. Complete car and appears untouched by makabasses. Engine shows signs of under-compression, brakes and clutch-plate need replacing, tyres are on the brink of decomposing. Power mirrors do not work. Needs a paint job. No major corrosion but early-stage rust spots on the boot lid.
Nissan might close down operations in 12 -14 months? https://www.carscoops.com/2024/11/nissan-exec-says-we-have-12-or-14-months-to-survive/ Are we going to see more companies shutting down or is this a one off. So much for the new GTR and the new Patrol.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
