  1. I have a '95 SE 4x4 with A/T Overdrive, Offroad Package, LSD, 31" tires, also leather interior and the switch that lets me shift like triptronic. I think the offroad pkg includes LSD. Never owned an EX to compare.
  2. I found a sight RJS superchargers.com and that looks like an easy way to gain 5LBS of boost or more. Has anybody tried one of those? Looks like something that can fit under the hood. There is a pic of the 2006 240SX kit displayed, I'm going to email and see if I can find out more.
  3. My Nephew has a Dodge Ram Pickup truck. He is running headers to a Magnaflow High Flow Cat, straight through to a long pipe to the back, as in NO MUFFLER. I think it sounds good and is very responsive above & beyond S-T-O-C-K. I did think about a "TEST PIPE", I wrote that idea off because it seemed like cheating. I never thought of omitting the Muffler. His V8 is not overly loud, He has had this setup for about 8 years. His truck isn't raising any POLICE EYEBROWS. Anybody tried that?
  4. Copy-- Thanks! I got some research to do. It helps to know what to look for. I like the VG30E engine, the more I look things up about it, the more I want to know.
  5. I just have to see about maybe the VG30ET--Single Turbo SOHC.. It looks promising. Could that set in my '95 SE? I understand why the Twin Turbo may be a big project. Anybody have a single turbo VG30ET in thier Pathfinder?
  6. It sounds a lot like wheel hop, the same thing happends on the drag strip when a dragster lights up the tires. It feel like an earthquake in the car because the wheel is hopping on the track. I can do that in the snow as well in 2WD. To reduce or get rid of the rumble I modulate the throttle a bit.
  7. Copy That- like that guy in MAD MAX said:"Speed is just a matter of money. How fast to you want to go?". It sure sounds cool.
  8. I'm goin' with 30psi cold--it seems to heat up well. I didn't think of a couple of lbs more in the front. Thanks.
  9. I have to say on that night they did me right!
  10. When I start adding up mods, it's easy to come up with over $1000! So how about dropping the 300ZX TT engine in the WD21 Pathfinder? I know that in the eighties Car and Driver did an article on a VW Vanagon with a 911 motor installed, Porsche used it for road test carrying tools and mechanics to chace 911's that were being wrung out on the Autobahn. I think it sounds cool to have a "PATHZILLA" out there running a TWIN TURBO! Does it bolt up to an '95 SE with an automatic? I think it might require a better Torque Converter and a bit of ECU work.
  11. That makes a lot of sense! I am staying with stock!
  12. My '95 SE has the factory off road package, I have the 31" tires and have been running them at 26psi (Cold). I went to one of those oil change places and they filled up my tires up to 40psi. I drove around a bit to see what it felt like, Fred Flintstones car with the stone wheels. I pulled out the owners manual, read the tag in the door, and had them deflate the tire to recommended 26psi COLD the next day. At the shop nobody knew what DECOUPLING in a Raidial tire is. I only had to drive about 5 miles to get to the place so the tires didn't get a chance to heat up. It was free so I didn't have to pay 75cents to run around and try get my pressure corrected before the air compressure stops at the gas station! For the street, just normal driving conditions, what pressure yields the best results? Radial Tires role best a proper air presure, I'm looking for the best contact patch. I don't want to OVERINFLATE or UNDERINFLATE. I do know that a loaded vehicle may need more pressure. The correct tire PSI is one of the most important factors on MPH, and handling. It feels ok now, these tires have a lot of tread I want them last. --15" stock rims, DUNLOP RV RADIAL ROVER 31 x 10.5. I was surprised that any shop guy would try to put in so much air over the factory spec. To people who used to, or who are currently running 31's, what works best? I have been the owner for about 3000 miles (since December '08) and I so far don't notice any uneven wear. The previous owner just got them before selling it to me. He said he ran it at 26psi as well.
  13. Thanks, I was checking around. I am gratefull for the heads up!
  14. I was looking around and only found one AIR FLOW METER upgrade for the '95 Pathfinder-- "PYTHON AIR MASS METER". Is that a worthwile upgrade? I already have a cold air intake.
