That was completely city driving. Bet i get better mileage on long cruises.

Two Tone Silver Blue, Malaysia.

And so i calculated the gas mileage i'm getting. Running all these mods & 33's. 60.87 Liters got me 306KM. That translates to: 14.2 MPG @ 5KM/L Roy.

Will get the figures over the weekend ya!

You got that right. Its simplicity at its best. Room for tweaking. Even enough room to run a turbo at the right boost pressure. Petrol consumption is good too. Especially considering i'm running 33's. No figures yet. But i can do it over this weekend. But i know for sure the consumption is far better before the mods & power tweaks.

The power of the Z24 is nothing to shout about in terms of top speed. But its a very torquey engine. You can climb the steepest hill with just a little bit of throttle without the need of ramming/flooring it. The carburetor has never given me any problems thus far. I guess its about proper servicing & how you handle your right foot on the gas. Many of the Malaysian Pathfinders (Terrano) have been converted to Nissan's SR engine variant. SR20 DET as an example. While these will fly high on the freeways, it will be useless during offroad as u have to rev it very high to get the torque produced by the Z24. But the Z24, if tweaked & tuned well, is more than sufficient.

Thanks! Project took about 7 months. Uses torsion bars upfront. & yes, the coils are on the rears. Those bighorns are amazingly quiet with superior qrip on dry & moderate conditions but on wet surface, i surely take it easy. But in mud, it performs well. The studs allow the mud to somewhat self clean so u have thread, not mud stuck in it.

As you can see in the photos, many different wheels with various offset were tried to achieve the right setup & look. & The DBA rotors didnt work as they were too large.

Hi guys.

I guess i have learned to live with this by filling up the tank on regular intervals.. This will go on till my sender unit fails & i have to replace one. Will ensure that i get the right one with fuel level sensor.

Thanks to all. I took the advice here & opened up the fuel sending unit. To my amazement, no low fuel warning sensor. Hence, the absence of the wire i was talking about. Guess i have to wait till the sender breaks down to replace it with a unit with sensor. Unless the sensor can be installed seperately. Roy.

No, i have not pulled the fuel pump assembly to see the sensor. I was thinking of troubleshooting the wiring first. It would be great if someone knows the colour codes of the wires from the sender. (What colour represents what function). Maybe it did change in '95 onwards. But if so, how do i check if it works? I have driven till the gauge is really low. i.e Below the redline & the light never came on. I dont intend to try this again as i believe driving till the fuel in the tank is so low flushes the gunk & grime up the fuel pump. Can someone confirm that the sensor is tied to the fuel gauge? I find it makes no sense that the low fuel indicator wire has no pin connected to it. How else will the indicator work.

Hi guys, Roy here from Malaysia. Nice to find a forum with the WD21's. If there are more forums, do share links with me. Well, i'm having a problem with the low fuel warning indicator. I checked the harness that goes to the instrument cluster & noted that there were 5 wires. I grounded the purple/yellow one & upon turning the ignition, the indicator worked. Then i realised that the harness from the fuel sender unit has only 4 wires. Which one is the low fuel warning indicator? I tried swapping the pins & none made the warning light go off when the vehicle is started. The whitish wire stalled the engine, i assume this is the fuel pump wire. Also, note that there is no pin in the position to connect to the purple/yellow wire that i grounded (on the harness that goes to the instrument cluster) Could this be a manufacturing defect as i never had the fuel warning light before? Please advice guys. Thanks Roy
