I was going to welcome you until I saw this!!!!! Ah well I guess I'll welcome you anyways......but easy on the Go Habs!

As a side note for your rear wiper....the hatch won't open when the wiper is on, so if your rear wiper is "stuck" on, it might be your rear hatch issue.

Thanks to all who have given their lives or are putting their lives on the line every day to make this country a safer place to live! Denis

First off you don't mention year. This will only fix the guages up to and not including 95.....I beleive . Typically your gauges will drop instead of spiking. This is because the voltage regulator fails as it heats and you get no voltage to the gauges therefore the needle drops. The spiking would suggest more of a spike in voltage which is non-typical of a voltage regulator going bad (not to say it couldn't happen). So long story short.....possible, yet not probable. This being said....the fix is a couple of dollars plus at worst an hour of your time. It might still be worth a try.

I went much more creative.....I added the initial of my family name!

G.W. for me.......reason........if you look at the intelectual level these people should be on, the leader of a country should be a little better at.....cough, cough......"explaining/relaying" his thoughts than a bubble blond celebrity that made it on looks alone. Besides, Paris, Brit and Jessica work on providing this publicity to keep in the lime life were as G.W. probably would rather erase some of the comments he's ever made.

Since the heads are easy access, you could upgrade to the ZX300 manifold bolts. I beleive I've seen a write up somewhere where they mention them being beefier than the pathy ones.

Wow....I got to stop drinking when I post .....Thanks for picking that up Simon.

Welcome fellow Maritimer! This site is definately full of solid info on Pathfinders and I'm sure you will be very happy with your Pathy. Sounds like you got a great deal on it. NPORA is here to help. Denis

31s will be tight on factory setup. Depending on how much sag you have from your torsion bars and rear springs, you could have issues. You will most probably have rubbing if you do any extreme 4wheeling even if your susoension is not sagging. I'm guessing a 2" lift would get you 32s comfortably.......33s......might be tight.

I'd take mine off for highway use all the time and it wasn't so bad. Of course I didn't have anything on the roof to cause turbulance.

You mention replacing your calipers with another set (not being sure they were good) and then going back to your old set. Let's say for arguments sake both set were seized, you would not be able to bleed properly and you would probably see a mushy if not no existent pedal. Make sure none of your pins (front or rear calipers) are seized. Also I had one of my rear lines go bad once and had to take my master cylinder appart (seals and all), reasemble and then it bench bled perfect. Not sure if my bypass valve had seized when the line broke, but I could not get a good peddal before and when I re-bled the master and then re-bled the brakes everything panned out.....maybe just weird gremlins....

According to manual (since I've never bled ABS). Disconnect ground and actuator connector from ABS unit with ignition off. Then bleed in the following order. 1 load sensing valve (if equipped) 2 left rear 3 right rear 4 left front 5 right front 6 Rear ABS Actuator The rest is normal bleeding. If you went thru those steps and still have problem......then someone else needds to pipe in since I am not sure.

Well a guy I know had a pan under his truck and would pour the oil back in his truck every day to top it off. Saves from getting the asphalt driveway tore up and saves on oil purchase.

Nice ride! I love the black on black tint. Chromes are nice, but I think steelies would look better. and it needs about 2" lift to fit the wheels and look more like an off road vehicle and less like a mall crawler. Maybe the border patrol saw the vehicle as trying to look like something it wasn't (a street vehicle trying to look like an off road vehicle) and since he was an off roader felt like you had something to hide.

I was following a car in the drive thru one day and their back window did the same. It was winter and the rear defrost was on, probably had a pressure point in it and just couldn't take the difference in heat.

6 stud wheel patern is the same, but you got to look at the center hole, Nissan and Toyota are bigger. Some are smaller, like GM products.....not sure how common GMs are in Aussi, just a heads up.

At this point a certain song comes to mind........"So much cooler on line" !?!?!?! :tonguefinger: Oh By the way nice turkey tan!

Yeah, but we own the land Santa lives on ......Ok we don't own it, but we're the closest country to it!

I sense that someone had "apple juice" in his Corn Flakes instead of milk this morning!

Now that's funny right there I don't care what you say !

Easy or we'll sick our killer polar bears on you!!!!!!!

If it's got the temp and gas going freaky it could be regulator, but if only one of the two is acting up, it's not the regulator since it's the same regulator that runs both.

I did bend my own lines. If you buy the rolled stuff for the longer leghts (a little more flexible) you can actually bend them by hand without a bender. Be careful not to bend to sharp of an angle, because if you kink them it's not good. Take a 1 foot leght and practice first. It won't be as clean a job as the rolled stuff never ends up perfectly straight, but you can run it on the inside of the frame where it can't be seen easily. Zip-tie it to existing gas line and you're good to go.

I did most of mine about a year ago, but I can't remember. I know they aren't double flanged and I ended up using the same fittings over again as the fittings weren't in to bad a shape, the main lines anyway.
