Mark,

I have a 98 200sx. I have not encoutered any problems with the car or the inspection. I have about 50,000 miles on mine.

hey i have a 96 se-r , it failed inspection last year, for some reason or the other- the guy must have tried something with it and it didnt pass... no clue what though, all i know is it passed this year and is for a while. I say bring it to a garage safe bet there mark. You never know what your gettin till you get it checked over.

Good Luck

True. Having it checked out is always the best thing. Make sure they aren't over pricing you either. Check up on Kelly's blue book.
