      What fans are you getting? I had a few cooling problems until I installed a Ron Francis Wiring temp control module, works great now!

      I'm getting a Hayden rapid-cool 16" *HIGH FLOW* electric fan with a thermostatic wiring switch kit. Also from Hayden. About 150$ all together. Picking them up today.

      I use an altima fan currently with thermostatic switch, but will be upgrading to the ford taurus fan which is sitting in the trunk now, just need some time to install.

       

  2. Adios p1320 and p0304! Changed out ignition coil on cylinder 4 last night.. Was getting p1320 Primary Ignition Misfire and p0304.. Cyl#4 Misfire. Of corse the most difficult one to replace. Under the throttle body and behind the air intake we go!! Reste the eheck engine light and keeping fingers crossed. Hope I dont get any more misfires although I've only got three more coils to change if I do. #onebyone # proccessofelimination LOL

      You didn't have to remove the throttle body, just the air intake tube and the IACV which is secured by two Phillips head screws.

      I've done it soooo many times already I think I can remove the throttle body and put it back on with my eyes closed... Codes are still gone!!! WootWoot!

       

  3. Found fabricator for custom upper and lower trailing arms for lifted pathys..

      I have a friend here in San Pedro/Long Beach that can make custom ones too!

  4. To GoPro or not to GoPro?.. Is NOT the question...GoPro vids coming soon!

      What other option is out there? Contour shut down, and everything else doesn't even get close in terms of quality and ease of use!

       

  5. Worthless, not to mention non existent. You may be able to find them for 3.3L v6 pathys (I don't really know as mine has the 3.5 and that's what I was looking for.) or possibly for Nissans Car models that have the 3.5L BUT.. The throttle body size and bolt pattern configuration against the intake manifold is way different on the Pathfinder R50 3.5L. It uses a much larger throttle body than the cars with the 3.5L i.e. Maxima, 350Z, Altima equipped with the 3.5L So be careful if the maker says " Oh yeah it's got a 3.5L in it, it'll fit.. It's the same.." Nope.. I've sent back 3 of these trying to get one that fits my truck.. I know a Machinist here in SoCal that can make custom ones that will fit specifically on our trucks (3.5L). However I felt it was not worth the time or $$$ to design one only for me.. PM me if you guys want me to look into having a lot (min 5) made.
  6. Want to make it out with you guys soon... Keep 'em event posts coming!
  7. When you get compliments like "Dude that's a nice 4Runner.." & you are like "Ummm. nope not really.. Its a PATHFINDER!!!" or "Wow that's a nice lift! Where did you find the kit?" Answer : Canada.
  8. Automotive Customizers out of Florida sells a kit. Its basically all (4) 2" lift springs, struts for the front and you can choose from three different shocks for the rear. https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/pathfinder-19962004-pathfinder-c-435_437_341_8.html https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/pathfinder-suspension-package-p-1551.html You will need the camber alignment kit x2.
  9. Sway bars..? Keep 'em or Ditch 'em??? or make Disconnects?

      I highly recommend discos. You really need sway bars in emergency type maneuvers, not cruising the street. With Disconnects you'll still have them on the street. And how long does it really take to disconnect them?

      If you tow at all I would recommend disconnects or just leaving them on.

      I removed the rear and keep the front.

  10. 4" sub frame drop this weekend!! Almost finished!

  11. 4" sub frame drop this weekend!! Plus new control arms, Warn locking hubs, ball joints and tie rod ends! WootWoot!!

      Congrats! Let us know how it works out after the mods.

  12. Warn manual locking hubs vs. Stock auto lockers for the 2001 R50..? Any comments or suggestions? Are they worth spending the cash on them and having to get out to lock up the front?

      Im by no means an expert here, all my knowledge is coming from reading posts in the forum when I was making the same decision for my 95. From what I understand the 2001 has drive flanges instead of auto hubs, which act like locked hubs 100% of the time. By installing the manuals you wouldnt be spinning your cv's all the time which will give you a little less rolling resistance and maybe a tiny mpg gain. More importantly it will reduce wear on the cv's lengthening their life which i...

      All of the above plus extra gas mileage. I've never regretted putting them on my 96.

  13. So this afternoon I plan on changing out my front sway bar end links and sway bar frame bushings. I have been hearing some unpleasant sounds from the front (as well as the rear) rattling, clanking, metal 2 metal, popping... etc. Looks like the replacements are easy to DIY..? Any thoughts, comments or suggestions. Is this as straight forward as it seems to be? Is there anything I should be aware of before starting? Do I need to adjust the camber of the front wheels as part of this repair? Wil...

      you wont have to mess with the camber, i had to cut one of my links off because it was seized, use lots of pb blaster and should be good to go!

  15. Transmission is probably fine. I changed the TPS on mine and resolved this issue. Mine was also neglecting to shift and would bounce off the rev limmiter when taking off from a stand still (first gear). I changed the TPS, Mass Airflow Sensor and fully took apart the throttle body and cleaned it and cleaned the K&N air filter. This seemed to do it for me. I am now dealing with an ignioion coil issue. It helps if you can get the codes from the ECU.
  16. Im dealing with this problem currently.. I have changed the #1 coil and have ordered the #2.. Waiting till payday to order the remaining (4) #3-#6. I am hoping this will prevent the check engine light from returning due to P1320 code. Any thoughts, comments or advice would be much appreciated. -Thanks. CNAM.
  17. What's up? I'm Jon a.k.a. CNAMDAFENOM.. I'm new here to NPORA. Just getting the feel of it.
