thanks for the heads up. im still waiting for fix. Can't dedicate 100% to get it fixed since college started hopefully mechanic will have it fixed by tomorrow..

path had a bad circuit which caused it to turn off a lot during driving. thats being fixed then transmission not engangin in 4th gear problem would be solved. Hopefully very soon

thanks. I am only vote for the crow lol

where do i vote?

That's a very nice find. Tomorrow I will be taking my path to get the auto transmission electrical problem fixed and I will talk to the mechanic about manual transmission swapping options. Will keep updated. Thanks.

I was looking around for manual pathfinders, but could not find any on my area. I also had mentioned a manual swap to a nissan mechanic and he said to swap a 6 speed from a 350z into it. He said its possible, but I will talk to him again for the details because from words to action there is a long way...

I would love to see it myself too lol hopefully I can take it to the track on late february. will keep you guys updated.

I wonder if a 6 speed from a 350z is "swappable".

It will easily dyno 400 with the forged interiors. I will be trying that horsepower at first to see how the transmission holds.

Thanks for all the links. Yes Puerto Rico gets easy access to all american parts. The problem is the shipping cost. @my1path I think they are also 5 speed. At least the earlier VQ models.

at least its not a civic

Nice now the hard part is finding a manual nissan pathfinder r50. Anyone know the difference in manual transmission between a 96-99 path vs a 2002? There were no manual transmissions bought in my country for 2001-2004 models but im sure I could find a 96-99

they are the FN BFD. They are the Volk TE37 for truck "imitation" but they are great quality. Couldnt find the volk's anywhere. http://www.fnwheels.com/new-products/bfd/ Cost me $1250 for a set of 4 shipped.

No. Went with forged interiors low compression rods and pistons. Have not been able to test it out since the automatic transmission is having electrical issues and was not shifting into 4th gear. Right now Im waiting in turn to get it fixed. Have to wait until monday. Transmission mechanic said it is a one day job, so hopefully he can fix that and then I can test it out more. Im looking into an auto to manual swap to see if it will work in better with the engine.

Anyone ever done it? I have a 2002 RWD model which is turbocharged (for those of you that dont know). Automatic transmission is ok, but its not manageable with my Haltech ECU and its the second time I have had problems with it. It just does not keep up with the Path's power. Anyone know what parts do I need to do the swap? If you have link to a page then better. Thanks for the help. Here she is. Looking sad and sick of transmission issues

There are only 2 catalytic converters in the R50. maybe he is adding up the resonators..go to a different shop

trans is holding up great. and yeah, the water/methanol should solve that problem

remove all resonators and replace muffler. If you have extra money, also replace stock cat-backs with high flow ones. Size of tubing should be 2 1/4" for power gains.

the only problem with the haltech was controlling something that I do not know the name, but this custom piece needed to be installed for it too work. I will take a picture of it installed so maybe you will know what it is. I think it is crank something..

Haltech installed. Made excellent gains. Only problem is that my country is only providing 91 octane besides only one gas station that provides 100 octane at 2.69 per litter, and the boost had to be reduced to avoid the engine knocking (i think that it what it is called when there is a weird engine noise due to the pistons or idk). A methanol injection kit will be added this tuesday along with a bigger turbine (current turbo is a T3/T4) in order to make the desired tuning and horsepower that I want. As you see, the max hp was 423.94 at a max boost of 14.93 However, due to troubleshoot of engine knock due to low octane (91 octane gas), it was, for safety, reduced to 12-13lbs for 345.75 horsepower. No engine knock problem but a water/methanol kit will be installed in a couple of weeks along with a bigger turbo for results than can easily allow 425hp. It would easily achieve more but due to stock engine limitations, for safety it will not go not too much over 400 horsepower. On a side note, the Haltech Platinum Sport 2000, allowed easy tuning and even has a nice launch control that I tested and it felt AMAZING. Boost cut is set at 15 or 16 I think to avoid disaster.

lol me too, thats only since it was in an underground parking though

I like 55-80 better

Lol I dont know, but Haltech will be installed before April 1. And I have been trying to avoid driving it until Haltech is installed. It has not even done 600 miles since the turbo was installed.

Its MPH, by the way, here is a rev up video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrsi3TIN0tM

Huh?
