  1. I agree with AndyC. Mine doesn't rattle but I hate it being in the way when I need to open the back. Sometimes with a trailer connected I cant open it enough to open the hatch. The only reason it's still there is because I don't want it in the cargo area. If it fit underneath a WD it would still be there. James
  2. We should do that with pathfinders! There wouldn't be any 180s to turn around though. Whenever I get around to building a roof rack I will build a mount for my 1919A4 and go ride around town with it to see how long it takes to get harassed by the man. James
  3. I'm still waiting for that Y pipe! James
  4. Did you see the shipping on that pipe? You are right at $65 by the time you get it. They say 2.5 is also available if you contact them. So if you want the gibson cat back you should go with the 2.5. James
  5. Those calls just to change a light bulb, is that from those lonely women who's husbands work keep them away for weeks at a time? They just need a little company? James
  6. I got y'all all beat! My first job was leveling grain in a grain dryer. The grain was dumped in the dryer with an auger from the top so it was in a pile. We had to get inside with shovels and level it out then make a depression in the center so the air would circulate through it evenly when the dryer fan was running. Rice was the worst because it wouldn't slide on it's own. Corn and soybeans you could just play king of the mountain in and it would level off on it's own. James
  7. I cut iron! Machinist currently in the oil field. I run a mazak 650 Integrex machining center at least 60 hours a week and sometimes Saturday too. B, you need to move down here to Louisiana! Machinist are in high demand in the oil patch. Also we have plenty mud to finally get that pathfinder of yours dirty! James
  8. You know you could have just unbolted that drive shaft Lol! James
  9. I've been looking for a set of Legos! For the guys fussing about crushing a straight body pathfinder, y'all should see some of the pathfinders that go through our pick a part. I rarely see one with rust on the body or the frame. My 87 has more rust than most of the one I see go to the crusher. Can't save them all! I just grab any parts I think I can use now or in the future and store them up. wife is real happy about that! James
  10. That first link is pretty nice, ports to spare! Will it fit with headers though? Not sure about the DT headers but with the Experimental Engineering headers I had to change out my factory sending unit for a light and a gauge, to a smaller sensor for just a light so the headers would clear. James
  11. Steeevo needed ten people for Doug Thorley to build the headers not to get a better price. It would be up to Jim Wolf if they will give a better price if a certain number of people commit. James
  12. Cool! I don't mind if I have to change the base just as long as the shifter itself will fit in mine. I grabbed one Saturday from a 92. It looked different but the body is so much higher from the trans that it looks different in that respect too. I grabbed the transfer case shifter too and I was able to take it off from the hole inside the cab. I only had to crawl under to disconnect the linkage. James
  13. Does anyone know if the shifter from a 4 cyl hard body is the same as the V6? James
  14. If you shave that much you will need more than a new tensioner! I'm sure you meant .05. Won't you need adjustable cam gears too to get the cams back where they need to be? James
  15. I'd like to see how he did that too, Kingman had to cut the firewall for the intake to clear. He must have moved the motor forward some. The Z has the exhaust crossover behind the motor also that won't fit in the truck. Why didn't he show the turbo in the video also. James
  16. I would use an allen head socket on a hammer impact driver. The kind you hit with a hammer like this. http://www.ehow.com/how_4809810_use-hand-impact-driver.html James
  17. Steeevo at rugged rocks put a group buy together to get DT to make 10 sets. It's good to see they still will make a set just for warranty. James
  18. So you had a shop install them? Any fitment issues they complain about, Or were they a perfect fit? James
  19. There is only one hole in the intake around 2.5". four bolts but not evenly placed. Just buy one of these. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-VG30-VG33-Intake-Manifold-Holley-Two-Barrel-Carburetor-Datsun-510-/181051433950?_trksid=p2047675.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222001%26algo%3DSIC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D4470363303270206109%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D181042899644%26 Only problem is the mounting plate is so low that you will have to cut off a couple of ears on the throttle linkage on the carb to clear the valve cover. You can use a spacer but will probably not get as much low end as with the carb lower. As for the distributor some guys left everything else like it was and let the ECU run the distributor like the injection was still there. I'm working with a company to build a modified chevy HEI distributor for a VG. They are kind of slow though. James
  20. Got mine a lifetime alignment and put some airsoft pellets in the tires, drives like a new truck! It took two days for the alignment, those young punks at firestone don't know what to do with a 25 year old truck that doesn't have eccentric bolts. James
  21. I see J30s and Q45s often in the pull a part, course now that I'm looking there won't be one for a while! James
  22. Yea I just left the yard. The 200 was front wheel drive before someone got the whole drive train! The 240 was there but it's not a limited slip differential. James
  23. What about a 240SX, anyone know what differential is under a 92? The local pull a part has one and a 98 200SX. Were the 200SX still rear wheel drive in 98? James
  24. Washed it! Took all day! The down side playing in the mud, the clean up! Had to get it up so I could get underneath with the pressure washer. There was a 1 inch thick layer of mud inside each wheel. I even had to spray the mud out of the brake rotor fins! I don't have any clean pics because it was dark by the time I finished. James
