  1. With sidewalls like that, I bet they're extra nice at sub-10psi!
  2. Two of you that are running H4's, does your housing call for H4's? Or do they call for 9003? 9003 is better than H4 because the filament placement is much more strict. So if you're running H4's in a 9003 housing, you could have even better output if you used the correct bulb. Basically the government took the H4, loved it, but hated the lax attitude with filament placement which required the headlights to be re-aimed with every new bulb. So they made the filament placement stricter and called it 9003/HB2.
  3. Talking about bulbs? Osram and Phillips are quality. As with most things of this nature, your mileage may vary. What I like might be something you don't. But I recommend the Osram Nightbreaker.
  4. Picture is too small, I can't tell what it is other than a fat bloke next to a Heep.
  5. The two doors say 200SX on the back, and it's an abomination. It's just a two door Sentra, and that's what they should have called it. The 200SX name should be reserved for front engine rear drive vehicles like the S12, S13, and S14. Not the sissy girl car. Not a bad deal! Hope you have it running in short order, 30+MPG is nice! I'd get 35 regularly with my 1.8L Escort GT, and I flogged the @!*% out of it!
  6. I've done a gravity bleed on empty calipers. It takes a whole lot longer for it to seem like it's doing something but, as long as you notice the level of fluid in the master cylinder is dropping, it is working.
  7. Wheels and tires are too heavy if you're only getting 12 mpg. I get 15-17 on wheelin trips. Only in the SE-R though. And please don't call it a 200SX. It's offensive to the REAL 200SX. The two door B14 sentra in SE-R trim is rare, relatively speaking, so good luck finding one.
  8. The VIN won't tell you what options it has. I generally like to sit in the driver seat and look around to see what gadgets I have. Being a 1990, is it a four door, or a two door? If you have a two door, HOLD ON TO IT! They reckon less than 1000 were made. Is it an SE or an XE? It should say so on the liftgate. As far as options, heres what I can rattle off the top of my head. The SE model is usually outfitted pretty well; sunroof, adjustable suspension dampening, rear disc brakes with a limited slip differential and 31x10.50 tires. Other options include a swing away tire carrier, alarm/keyless entry, front fog lights, heated side mirrors, heated (leather is rare) seats, cruise control, and a 6 speaker stereo system which all, excluding the heated seats, came standard on the SE. The XE model is generally pretty bare with chintsier interior. Rear drum brakes and a limited slip IF you're lucky. Along with any, or all, of the optional equipment that came standard on the SE but with 235/75 sized tires.
  9. There are only two types of Jeep owners. Those that have rolled their Jeep, and those that will.
  10. Weird. I can't edit my post. I had meant the B13 SE-R is the one to have. The B14 is stupid, all of them. I'm sure it's possible, I've never looked in to it though. I wouldn't mind an SE-R as a daily, but three cars would be too many!
  11. They're chassis codes like the WD21 Pathfinder and R50 Pathfinder. B12 Sentra's run from 1985-1990 and B13 Sentra's run from 1991-1994. The B14 Sentra SE-R is the one to have of any Sentra, even the newer ones. Factory SR20DE making 140hp and 132torques and a limited slip? Talk about an amazing daily that should still get you 30+mpg.
  12. Now that you mention it! I do remember there being two blue wires in the factory harness to connect to the single blue coming from the deck. You wouldn't even be aware of this issue if the amps were bypassed though. The way I did it is by making jumper wires to stick in to the factory plugs to the same effect but without cutting the truck's harness.
  13. I heard of dyno proof that the VG30DE doesn't make any more power than a VG30E up to a certain RPM, 4000 or 4500 or something like that. And it will not fit without cutting in to the frame.
  14. At least in 1995 models, both amps are in the rear right next to each other.
  15. If you're talking about a 200SX SE-V6, the needle pegs at 120 source: recent owner
  16. I think it's more of a heritage thing. Willy's didn't have doors! Most interiors of Wranglers have I've seen you can just hose them out anyway. I wouldn't dare take a hose to my truck!
  17. If you can find solid or polyurethane bushings... that's what I would do. But $13 a pop from the dealer for rubber, that's pretty good. If poly is available though...
  18. So the old speakers were getting power and the new ones are not? Have you pulled the speakers from the roof and checked to make sure they are wired up? Also, with an aftermarket deck and speakers it is highly recommend to bypass the factory amps.
  19. If vehicle speed sensor is your only code, the O2 is unrelated. I recommend putting a speedometer cable in it and see if the code goes away.
  20. Car50... if with a car like steering system... steering rack mount bushings? I know my SE-V6 200sx, oil from the filter would drip on the rack bushing which then causes it to wear out faster. the VG33 doesn't have that problem though as the filters in a different place. Something to look at though.
  21. Nissan didn't switch the Pathfinder to the round tooth cam gears until 94?
  22. And Mr.510's 88, and my friends 94 just BARELY works. So, kudos for you two that have working hand brakes.
