    89-95 Questions and Concerns

    in 86.5-89 WD21 Pathfinders

    Posted

    I spent about 4 1/2 hrs pulling the main harness, the dash will have to be pulled for the heater a/c and radio wiring also to run the wiring to the engine compt. both sides, pulling all the seats makes it a lot easier.

    I know you said you wanted to keep the square dash but remember the electronic speedo in the rounded dash.

    I'dd o the complete loom.

    hope this helps

     

     

    So it's looking like I would have to either convert to round dash OR play Doctor Splice n' Dice.

     

    I'm going today to pick up the parts rig. From photo's it actually looks incredibly clean so I'm going to have to assess the situation when I get there. Part of me hopes the frame is shot and the photo's are deceiving so I don't feel bad tearing it up. The other part hopes its as clean as I imagine and then I'll end up with 3 Nissans and no parts rig. Which doesn't quite help my situation at all.

    Lmao I have never even owned a set of ramps. Even my stock height X and pathy I can change the oil in 10 minutes without raising it an inch. I don't like to piss around wasting time though.

     

    My original 95 I paid a shop to do the studs, it was stock then. They said it was a bitch but they replaced them all and I never had an issue. My 94 came with the 3" body lift (thank fskc because it is a pain to install), and a member here and his mechanic did the studs, I was really sick with crohns at the time so I just watched. And the current 95 I had, well I put a new motor in so I made sure they were all good before installing it, lol.

    It doesnt take much time for me, they are usually out in the driveway and i just pull in, place em, pull up and change my oil, total process is probably about 10-15 minutes if I don't dilly dally on other things.

    Well, time to do my manifold studs. Step one: lift kit.

    My Xterra on 33's is far enough off the ground I could change my oil with very little crawling effort and work under the truck with ample room. I still drive all 4 corners onto ramps before changing my oil or starting any work that doesnt need the truck on jackstands.

    the main harness goes from the tail lights to the headlights, sub harnesses to dash, to engine, rear hatch, frt doors. dome light and possibly vanity mirror lights on the visors.

    I did my 88 but I also replaced the dash and cluster when I installed a 3.3 in my 88

    it would be easier to just swap out the complete electrical, I even swapped out my side mirrors now they are heated

     

     

    See my issue is I want the square dash + the heated mirrors + the new tail and headlight wiring + New hatch wiring since the my rear glass will randomly pop open when I lock/unlock the doors. Just wondering if I should even bother trying to swap the entire harness or should I play splice and dice.

    NISSAN LONG TRAVEL KIT/NISSAN LIFT

    Sorry to revive the dead but is there anyone who makes a long travel REAR suspension kit? I'm going 2wd long travel rear but I can't seem to find any kits anywhere. Was hoping it would be out there before forcing me to go custom. If I need to go custom I might aswell save myself the trouble and drop a hardbody rear end on it so I can use leaf springs.

    Hard to find the information I'm looking for on the forums. Hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
    Pulling a harness from a 95'. Has anyone done a harness swap with ECU and put it in a square dash? Issues? Tips and Tricks?
    Might just pull the harness and start splicing and make my own franken harness since my headlight wiring is shot thanks to the PO's splice and dice for HID's and my tail light wiring is also just as bad. I'd like to also add in a plug for the heated mirrors. Splicing it all together doesn't scare me at all, but would it be easier to splice the square dash into the 95 harness and upgrade the TBI into MPFI from the 95? Also, the 95' is an Auto and my 89 is a 5-Speed. Would that be an issue? I would think not but I'd like to get some experienced heads in on this. Another question I had was, would the 89 body fit on the 95' frame? Or are the body mounts and what not that different? I've also read up on the 2wd swap but I still don't quite understand what it is that I need for my year of truck. Would it be smarter to do the swap for the 95' front end suspension and steering and use my 89 steering box to replace my idler arm? Or vice-versa? Loads of questions.

     

    Engine Power Mode / ET-Auto Power

    I do not like how when i am in Power mode, in my 95 SE, it would like it to shift before the red line mark, it always makes me nervous being by the red line

     

    WHOA DUDE!

     

    I mean my 95 used to shift pretty high on power mode but I doubt I got much past 5k rpms. Just keep power mode off and when you need it just double tap the gas and it turns on temporarily.
