  1. You didn't run the cable near any electrical devices did you? Did you ground the bracket your antenna is attached to?
  2. Home again, home again, jiggity jig!

  3. Glacier-check. Badlands-check. Yellowstone, your next!

  4. I would stick to near factory pressure. Your change in tire didnt really change a whole lot. I would try 30psi and see how it drives and how the tires "squat". You can try varying the tire pressure over a couple of tanks of gas to see what works best.
  5. What load rating is the tire? Just cause you changed the tires doesn't mean you changed the weight if the vehicle. I run 33's, that are load rating C, and set them at 30psi to give me a good tread pattern and doesn't feel squirrelly.
  6. What kind of clutch did you put in? Sometimes the pushrod at the clutch pedal may need adjusted to apply the correct pressure. I had to do this with my Z after I put in a ACT clutch. It's pretty easy to do, just back off the lock nut and spin out the rod. You shouldn't of got air in the line if you didn't open the system.
  7. Thanks Gents! Like fine wine, I get better with every year that goes by!
  8. Our very own SteeevO of Rugged Rocks was on the Nissan Nation podcast!!! http://www.nissannationpodcast.com/Nissan_Nation_Podcast/Show.html Scroll down till you see episode 014 If you read this SteeevO, thanks for the NPORA shout!
  9. Could be. That's why we need more info about his rig. I would totally use my internet teleportation app and go look at it myself, but it needs a update. My iPad crashes every time I try to jump into it.
  10. Maybe it's just me, but I didn't see anything on that website about how to increase power in a VG. To the OP, I recommend searching the 3.3 swap or if you like some good reading, try this.... http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/28728-project-pathfinder/ A member here bought this rig not to long ago and is active, I just can't remember what the screen name is at the moment. Loss of power can be from many things. You may want to state the year of your rig, how many miles you have, what mods have been done and what kind of maintenance has been performed. Several members have woke their rigs up with a simple tune up and decarboning. From there you need to help it breath(intake and exhaust). Maybe I went a bit far with what you were asking for, but hopefully I gave some useful information!
  11. Anyone in Washington have a portable Fridge/Freezer they wanna let me borrow?

  12. The reason for the spare is that the car has been sitting nearly a year. Both front tires are bald, but the right front sidewall was torn. Like most spares, it was brand new. I needed to move the car, so the spare went on. I like the SE-R wheels, but the right front is also bent. I got my eyes on a set of nismo wheels on a wrecked unit down near Portland. The car has bigger issues like needing a transmission and a door. Add all the other small things that need to be addressed because it belonged to a 16 year old kid, I'm not worried about different wheels at this point. Ok, back on topic, this is a what you did to your pathfinder thread. Maybe there should a Other vehicles thread.....
  13. 1995 SE-R, 5 speed. Got it for $300. Needs some work which I'm trying to figure out how far I wanna go with it.
  14. Drove my recently purchased 200sx passed him at work. Then after work he revved really high to show his dominance.
  15. Kitty liter and a chunk of 2x4 or 6. Put the kitty litter down and let it soak in for a few. Then put the piece of wood down and stand on top. Twist side to side, grinding the kitty litter down, crushing it. Work your way along then sweep it up. I've done it many time including in my own garage.
  16. The remote checker box is Nissans code retriever tool for the original on-board diagnostics system. It basically does the same thing as flipping the switch or turning the diagnostic knob on your ECU. It's only at dealers, if they still have it.
  17. Welcome! You've found the right spot! I wish I could get my bro-in-law to drop his 97 disco. Man that thing is a pile. It wheels well, but breaks all the time. I've rebuilt the top half of the engine, rebuilt the right burfield and now it needs the left. It's never ending. Never mind all the other little stuff that wont stop failing. I'm hoping there is a Xterra in his future as two friends have both bought one recently and they kick butt off road! It made him pretty jealous.
  18. Removed the sunroof glass completely and reattached the seal around it with weatherstrip adhesive. Should hold for a while.
  19. Thermostat stuck? Has it been changed at all? One radiator hose would be ridiculously hot and the other very cool. Fan clutch not operating correctly? It would sound like a semi when the engine revs. Clogged radiator? External or internal is a possibility. Water pump? When was it last changed? What's the ambient temp been like down there?
  20. Yep. Can't really worry about changing out the fan right now. Seemed like a good solution. Added it before I left work tonight and noticed a drop in temps. I had the a/c on too. The gauge was reading about 3/4 before and after read just over half. Tomorrow and Saturday will be the big test.
  21. Added Water Wetter to the cooling system as these high temps are taxing my e-fan. So far so good!
  22. Hit 245k today(I'm sure with 33's, it's more!)
  23. I did a write up when I did mine.... http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/28120-how-to-front-brakes-and-cv-axles/ There is another in the garage section
