LOL! Once upon a time a man who love bacon fell in love with a pig. A few days later, he had the swine flu. Dying, he decided to travel the world. He drove until he found the mud. Then he said, "Hey guys, watch this!". and he do some fancy stunts with his new Pathfinder. Unfortunately, his love-pig fell out the window. Not realizing this he continued doing doughnuts, repeatedly driving over his lover with his churning rear tires!! Then he thought he could smell fresh cooked bacon and stopped to figure out where the smell was coming from. It turned out to be his exhaust pipes. So he sat down, and ate what was left of his lover. After the good meal, he diced to go home. Ended up rolling his truck into the ditch! "I can't believe I'm alive" he laughed. But he... fell to his knees vomiting and passed out. As he lay there, he had a quite vivid dream. He was standing naked on top of a tall mountain with hundreds of piglets throwing baby gherkins at him. He retaliated with a BB gun and shot all the piglets.

Have a great birthday man!

This is getting ugly. Once upon a time a man who love bacon fell in love with a pig. A few days later, he had the swine flu. Dying, he decided to travel the world. He drove until he found the mud. Then he said, "Hey guys, watch this!". and he do some fancy stunts with his new Pathfinder. Unfortunately, his love-pig fell out the window.

...which all amount to about 100 lbs tops and doesn't do anything after you've added a toolbox or eaten a large meal...

There are no cheap, easy bolt-on mods that produce a substantial amount of gains in engine power or torque. Sorry.

So you went from the equivalent of a 29.5 x 9.5 x 17 to a 31.5 x 10.5 x 16. Plus the new tread depth compared to the old worn out tires. (some tires have more tread depth than others) Gain: 2" tire height and 1" width. +6.67% larger tire compared to the old set. Loss: -7.15% speedo reading, -47 engine RPM per mile. What size tires did the Pathy have when new? I wonder if there were several optional sizes.

Check to make sure the carpet on the ECU side isn't wet, just in case. I've actually floated my Pathy in ocean water at the beach before and it died, after a bit of drip-drying it ran again OK.

Seafoam is good stuff, just don't DUMP fluid into a running engine. You can hydrolock it and bend rods. Like the can says, go slowly.

The problem with wanting to SAS an R50 is that only one or two people in the WORLD have done it that we know of. It's all totally custom work and there are no "kits' to buy or aftermarket parts companies that make ANY parts for such a project.

" Once upon a time a man who love bacon...fell in love with a pig."

Did you get the exact same tire size when you got new ones?

You can clean that out and use a Helicoil in it. I believe all it takes is included in a Helicoil kit if you can find one in that thread size.

I've got one of those in my garage. Lemme go count blades. Yep, 9 blades. Dated 10/91. Three wires, no removable plug.

I'm sorry, but I don't know of any companies that make headers for R50 Pathfinders. Stillen used to made headers but they were short-lived and tended to crack.

Overkill.

When you get right down to it, there's really not all that much you can remove that makes enough difference to make it worthwhile. It might clean things up though!

Yeah, that's some bullshyte right there man. Sorry to hear about it.

The third brake lights are all LED-equipped. I decided mine wasn't bright enough so I did a little modding on it using LED strips out of two Chevy third brake lights... Stock LED's. High-output LED's. On the Pathy.

Check your vacuum line for the CC actuator. No vacuum, no CC. When you replaced the EGR valve, did you clean out the lines for it? Could just be full of crud and blocked up. The knock sensor code doesn't generally cause a CEL to come on when driving, but I could be mistaken.

Oh no, another trial bike rider! (I ride freestyle street/skatepark on a 20") Welcome to NPORA! You're making a good start and man is that Pathy clean!

Ditto. If you need one I'll make it available. I even have some R50 FSM's saved on my computer.

I dropped mine about 3" with some scrap steel brackets I welded up. I felt like the cables were too tight and in need of some adjustment room. Also, when I was offroading when the rear would flex it would pull the e-brake cable and lock one wheel on me, so it was a functionality issue as well.

Mostly it's the cylinder bore size. The crank stroke is the same; VG33 swaps wouldn't be possible otherwise. The heads are slightly different as well. Aside from that the only differences are small things like sensors, wiring, ECU, etc. IIRC.
