For Parts: White 1986 Nissan Sentra Automatic Without Air Cond on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
It's been over a month now since I crashed my car, and it's time for me to say goodbye to it. I managed to drive it home from the scene, but I wouldn't call it driveable. Had the engine rebuilt in Dec for $1200 with a 1yr warranty, so if you need that, here it is; however, it's currently in need of a warranty repair which will be free AFTER you pull the engine. The rebuilt MTBE-free carburetor ($286) works perfectly and is under warranty till Oct 30, but if you put it in a car with A/C it may need an adjustment. Got 4 new tires ($240) this year with a 45k mile warranty, but I'm not sure that's transferable; I'll hand you the receipt for them. Replaced the starter with one from O'Reilly less than a month before the crash. Fuel tank, pump, and most of what's under the hood is new, including a copper radiator that replaced the original aluminum one in Dec as a precondition of the engine warranty. I'll also include a second distributor like the one under the hood. If you're working on an '85 or '86 Sentra yourself, this car will be like your personal parts store. The interior has a lot of sun damage and isn't of much interest, but all of the body damage is only to the front. I'll sign over the pinkslip and you can get a non-op until you've used all you can. Smog cert is from Dec so the non-op is needed. Feel free to reuse my wiring of an auxiliary audio input that allows the Google navigation app or similar to give audible driving directions WHILE listening to the radio, switching to phone-only (radio silent) when a call comes in with the flip of a switch on the dash.

For a full rundown of new goodies on the GT-R, check out our original post on the 2015 vintage.
Interestingly, the destination charge for the 2015 GT-R has climbed dramatically, from 2014's $1,000 to $1,595 for the latest car. We've reached out to Nissan to see why there was such a big increase, and will update as soon as we have an update.

Nissan recalls over 220k Altima sedans over hoods that could fly open
Fri, 10 Oct 2014Nissan will be recalling 220,000 Altima sedans, according to a new recall bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Apparently, model year 2013 Altimas built between March 6, 2012 and February 28, 2013 are at risk of their hoods flying open at speed.
According to NHTSA, debris, corrosion and interference between the hood's inner panel and the secondary latch lever could bind the mechanism in the unlatched position. While this in itself won't cause the hood to fly open - there's still a primary latch that needs released from within the cabin - it presents a potentially dangerous situation should the primary latch be accidentally released.
Nissan will begin notifying owners of the affected vehicles, who will need to report to their local dealer for free repairs. Scroll down for the full bulletin from the government safety watchdog.
