Paolo's Exa

Post by kapowww »

Name: Paolo

Location: Melbourne (Wesssside!)

Year/ Model: 83 Exa (odo 190,000km)

Colour: Baby poo green

Period of ownership: 2 weeks

Performance: Stock

Engine Mods: None

Interior Mods: Stereo only

Exterior Mods: None

Wheels: Stock

Future Plans: To rock it stock

My dad has always told me to get a Nissan Exa because when I was a kid I supposedly loved them and he even bought me a toy one. I assume he meant the N13 Exa, but after looking for a car to drive and park at the station everyday I found a pretty clean 1983 N12 Exa Turbo.

It is totally stock (at least I think it is) and I want to leave it that way. I wasted too much money when I was younger on my 180sx, and have since bought Euro cars. Some of my past cars include:
1992 Nissan 180sx (sold)
2002 Audi A4 1.8T (sold)
1997 Audi A4 1.8T (sold)
1985 BMW E30 318i (sold)
2002 VW Bora V6 4motion (current)

I bought the Exa because I wanted some Jap lovin. It's a fun car to drive (except for the lack of power steering) but seems like it's in good nick for its age.

I look forward to finding out more about this little beast and what I can do to maintain it, and hopefully not mod it because as you all know, once it starts, it'll never end!

Yeah the colour's a bit out there but the car was a pretty good deal so I went for it. The colour will grow on me, plus it's easier to spot when parked at a shopping centre.
