  1. Doing a hardbody light conversion with grille. Lets see how much brighter these IPF 820H housings are.

  2. Gas shortage on the east coast. NJ is now in 1978 mode with fuel rationing.

  3. Big hurricane about to hit. Can't wait.

      You mean it might get windy in Jersey?

  4. Apparently 5 quarts of oil will not cause any issues what so ever with 4x4 WD21s.

      None what so ever. The sump is so deep that the oil does not even touch the seals.

      i've been saying that for years, I always put 5 quarts in mine and it shows at the full mark and has never caused a single issue.

      Yeah it's weird how the FSM says 4. I guess they were trying to save oil at the factory? Or the cars take less? The oil fill spec is for 4WD though.

  5. Damn the VG30 sounds good at full throttle. People actually move out of the road when I step on the gas pedal.

      Just imagine how much gas it took to sound like that...Bye-Bye MPG!

      Maybe they're stepping out of the road because there's a crazy bastard in a Pathfinder coming towards them.

  6. Off-road drifting in a Pathfinder is non-stop fun.

      The weight ratio makes it perfect for drifting! It's very fun!

  7. Trolled by the forum

  8. Now using Fuelly to track fuel economy. It's awesome.

  9. Pathfinder now averages 21.2 mpg according to fuel receipts and mileage. I can live with that. Some of that was with the A/C running and city driving too.

      VQs are thirsty for no reason which is weird because they are super efficient now. There must have been some improvements to the design I suppose.

  10. Oopsie!!! Hooked audio amp wires backwards.

      I don't even know how I got that wrong. Yes, magic smoke was not released and I popped the fuse twice before I realized what was happening.

    3. Slartibartfast

      Slartibartfast

      I had one of those when I put my driving lights on... put the fuse meant for the signal wire in line with the lamps. That didn't last long.

      That's nothing. I plumbed a transmission filter backward.

  11. Who knew that chicken and a chocolate shake made you feel so good?

      that's what I have been doing in my head, waiting for my 240sx bc racing fully adjustable coilovers!!!

  13. Very funny burned out cruise control bulb...

  14. Passed free state inspection today. Yay!

  15. Apparently timing belt tension seriously affects drive-ability. My truck feels more alive than ever before. Got to love timing belts.

      good now fix my EGR! :D

      Change chains is the same as belts, they last a lot longer though. EGR's are for Puh-sey engines.

    4. Tungsten

      Tungsten

      Chains are more expensive and you need to change more things.

  16. Timing belt and water pump job is a success. Tested it out today, works great. Easy as pie. Too bad the FSM is so ambiguous and incomprehensible.

  17. Look at all the attention whores below this line --------------------

  18. The Ford Taurus 3.8 equipped electric cooling fan fits perfectly inside the factory Nissan fan shroud.

    1. nismothunder

      nismothunder

      Well no @!*%. I've known this for years. GM singal fans fits the same.

      No one told me before. lol

  19. Timing belts are even more fun to install than to remove.

      You're either schizo or a super troll. Either way I think you may end up going the way of Fueller and Alexrex20. One can only hope.

    2. Tungsten

      lol hope not

  20. These VG30E timing belts are so easy to do and people complain...

      Screw that. I don't like double valved VGs. Those things are a mess.

      Peoplebitch above vortec 350 intakes, I dont. I personally will probly never do a timing belt.

  21. Gates water pumps suck. Going back to Nissan.

      It's funny because you ALWAYS buy Nissan parts..and the first time you DONT it lets you down... It must be a sign.

  22. I love how easy it is to change the v-belts on a WD21.

    1. nismothunder

      nismothunder

      Easier then on a honda? So when can I exspect those cup holders?
