  1. Isn't there a spray on tint for the inside of taillights? You could probably use that because the sunroof is removable... I don't know how that would turn out on glass though...
  2. Nice. I just got mine in the mail so maybe this weekend I'll give it a shot. I got tint kits for both my pathfinder and my Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham d'Elegance, so I'll be doing the mobster caddy first as a testing bed, then the pathavoider. I'll post up my results... hopefully I'll have the patience for this.
  3. Is this Sean? Forgive my prying, but a good friend of mine got a 91 and his stereo bay is also a mangled mess fit for a rat. Check fuses. I've popped so many odd fuses while wiring in stereos that I keep a box of them handy in my electronics toolkit. From the description, I'm thinking that you cannot roll up the passenger window from the drivers controls - does the wiring from the switch to the passenger window not run through the center console somewhere?
  4. Swapped out my beat down leather seats for some cloth seats in good condition. found some speaker covers for the rear! yay! no more ghetto blaster! swapped out the center console bucket for one that still has the stock cup holders!
  5. Thanks John. I've been thinking about the self tint thing for a while and then this thread got bumped back up, which is awesome. I'll probably go ahead and buy the tint and keep it ready for when I have 4 hours of time on a weekend... Never know when that'll be. Hey look! You are in Atlanta too! Nice!
  6. This weekend I: put in new rear brake shoes. replaced the missing headrests for the back seat put LEGO wheels on my 2wd "Pathavoider" because I had good tires on them and crap tires on the M/T rims painted the center caps on the legos replaced the missing headlight bolts to hold the left headlight in place (threw away the zip ties) Thats it for this weekend.
  7. Are we talking leather vs cloth or cloth vs cloth? I have leather in my SE and the leather is torn to shreds and held together with duct tape. Despite that they are super supportive (hard/firm). The cloth seats in my donor XE vehicle are going to be put in the SE. The fabric seems pretty rough, but they aren't torn to pieces like the leather so the choice is obvious... The XE seats aren't as supportive (hard) so longer trips will probably be better. I'm going over to the donor vehicle today if I can (maybe even to swap out the seats), and I'll sit in the cloth seats for a few minutes with shorts and a wife beater on and let you know just how rough the fabric is against my legs and back. side note: I'm starting to think that SE and XE were random letters put on the pathfinders and really hold no meaning other than a resale value...
  8. So no one knows if this can be done on a 2wd pathfinder? I'm kinda surprised.
  9. I've searched and searched on this and I've found lots of valuable information on how to swap the disc brakes into a drum pathfinder with the exception of one detail: Will this work on a 94 2wd pathfinder rear drum, using a 95 4wd pathfinder rear disc donor? Thanks.
  10. ok,more info. I got to take a look at it after the engine cooled down and now it revs to around 3-4K over and over like a redneck trying to get a race at a stoplight. I checked the throttle body and the throttle plate doesn't move so its not the cruise control yanking the cable. while it is revving I can give it more gas and it revs higher just like it supposed to. Maybe the cold start "choke" is messed up? The damn thing has 240K on it -
  11. Would a vacuum leak do that? What about a vacuum hose that's popped loose? I'm unfamiliar with the R50 cruise control. Thanks.
  12. Friend was setting the cruise control on his 03 pathy and it went full throttle on him and wouldn't stop. Keep in mind I've been troubleshooting this remotely with my friend who knows next to nothing about repair. I've gotten him to check the cruise control fuse and there wasn;t one?? Maybe the fuse box is mislabeled or misleading. we disconnected the battery and held down the brake for 10 seconds to discharge the system and it still floors upon startup. The throttle cable looks slack like the plate is wide open, but a Samaritan stopped by and checked the throttle and said the butterfly was fine and moved freely, so maybe my friend is just describing normal slackedness of the throttle cable. I've gotten him to stomp the throttle multiple times in an effort to break it free, but nothing changed. I'll be meeting him later tonight, so can you experts give me some things to look for? Thanks.
  13. That's far. Taking it to a $20 emissions place with the rollers might net you some info if you have those in your county... What about swapping out an ECU temporarily? Do you know anyone who might loan an ECU for a minute? Oh, and try to return everything to a stock setting after trying them out. If you get no improvements altering the timing or swapping out a sensor, put it back the way it was before continuing. this way you can be sure that you didn't actually fix it last week but now the timing adjustment you made a month ago is screwing up the successful results. Still think you should focus on the fuel though. A deteriorating problem means a gradual change. A bad sensor isn't ever gradual. Air, fuel, spark. You did check spark, right? Remove the injectors and get them cleaned. If you are feeling adventurous...
  14. I'm going to say pathfinder because we have to fight 3 times as hard for parts, so we have learned to be the squeaky wheel.
