  1. All my road and track vehicles use Ceramics. I love them. I hit the anchors and I stop...because they stay cooler then a conventional pad there is less brake fade. The offset is the noise but I don't mind paying for that. Cheap pads are a good way to go....Here is the reason behind that. Cheap pads are a softer compound typically. So they don't lasst as long but since they are a softer compound they grip REALY well....you just replalce them sooner but I mean @!*%...whats $150 every 3 years? Besides...in three years you won't need to replace the rear pads anyway.
  2. Belt stretch? I had that happen to me. The new belt stretched over the course of a couple of days and the timing was so far up @!*% creek it wasn't funny.
  3. Well, my rig is an Automatic but it kicks down WAY before I hit WOT
  4. I would be weary about using a lightweight flywheel. VG33 needs all the help it can get with momentum at low engine speeds. You may find the Pathy a sluggish old toad when trying to climb hills....even with the charger on top. I've ran into that issue before.
  5. I know this is a little late but you can safely crank the boost up via the wastgate actuator. You will need to increase your fuel supply rate though by using a Rising Rate Fuel Pressure regulator that fed from your BOV/BPV. This will take diesel that would normally be returned to the tank and reroute it back to the engine to cope with the extra air be pumped into the engine.
  6. I don't know if any of you guys have noticed yet but if you go to there main page you can actually download Nissan FAST...I'm doing it right now.
  7. Why is there a Wide Open Throttle switch mounted above my gas pedal? What does it do or not do?
  8. PB = PBlaster = A brand of Penetrating Lubricant to loosen rusted parts.....No Pathfinder owner should be without it.....Shake can, spray can, remove bolt.
  9. We all know that Holden dominates the V8 supers (Ex-Pat Aussie...Tasmania. Any jokes and I will hunt you down LOL)
  10. Here is a transmission cocktail for your pathy.....If it doesn't fix half if not all of your issues then I'll eat my hat. I had issues with my old WRXs transmission. I used this cocktail and she was just like brand new. The same cocktail is my wifes car and my buddies jeep. All have noticed an increase in transmission performance. *1qt Redline lightweight shockproof *1qt Pennzoil or GM Synchromesh *2qt Castrol HypoyC 80w-90. Fill the rest of the transmission using regular 80-90 or 75-90 which you choose. But try to not add anymore synthetics in there.
  11. Whilst possible it should've worked it way well out of the system the first time the truck got hot.
  12. Manual or auto does matter. The shifter linkages need to be eiter extended or modified to continue to work properly.
  13. Here is a question....when you took the cap....how much pressure was there behind the cap? If a cap stops holding pressure then boiling point of the coolant rises making the engine run hotter. We had a constant issue of my wifes car running hot. I cracked the cap to see what condition the coolant was in (we had just bought it) and the cap didn't hiss or spit at me. I replaced the cap and running hot issue was solved.
  14. No codes but tomorrow I'm going to pick up a new flasher can and a spool of wire. It's just going to be easier to wire an entire new circuit then try to fault find it. 2hours for a brand new fully functioning circuit vs. 115hours of fault finding to repair a 13yo old circuit....I know which way I'm going. LOL
