  1. Has anyone seen this? Flyer States a higher articulation plunging CV axle. Ok increasing from ~28 degrees to ~40degrees. They have a part number for the WD21, D21, Frontier, Xterra etc. I would think this would be a great upgrade and allow for some better long travel options?

     

    Click download flyer to see the part numbers/ vehicle compatibility. The flyer is too large to attach.

  2. According to my 1992 service manual, the VG30E 4x4 came with 4.625 in manny tranny, and a 4.375 in the slush box tranny. Rear diff is a H233B, front is a R200A. 

     

    The manual also mentions gear ratios for the KA24E, Front Diff is a R180A and with the rear being a C200. This model used a 4.111 gear.

     

    Hope this helps, that is about all I know. 

     

     

  3. Just making sure, you hooked up the EGR tube to the new headers. It sounds like you did but it isn't clear. I don't think your O2 sensor would make a difference in EGR function. Unless it is now too close to the Heads and it is picking up a false reading. Which I am not sure is even possible. It is all the same air no matter where you pick it up. 

  4. Awesome that's good to hear. I wouldn't want to over boost my truck, I just want to keep the reliability, increase mpg a tad on my 200mile highway drive I do often, and bring the power up for towing and wheeling,. I wouldn't think I need to put near 15psi down if I want to maintain reliability on a stock vg33 bottom end. I was just thinking about a remote turbo yesterday, I'm a bit worried about submerging it on water crossings and stuff. my brother and I were looking yesterday and think the passenger side might be a nice place to put everything, I can relocate the battery to the back, then I don't worry about the brake/clutch master, getting around the front diff/drive shaft. Just need to figure out a wrap around tube from driver to passenger and where to mount an intercooler since I have the ac condensor and winch bumper to contend with.

  5. Snowboard. do you think your injectors are large enough to go in a 3.3 with megasquirt and a turbo? I am having a hard time finding compatible injectors. I am glad to know that you subaru injectors fit and I can simply rewire the harness to make them work. I am just worried they may be too small if you are topped out on the duty cycle. (Although I may never run E85) So maybe that makes them large enough for me.

  6. yeah that is a good point. I am worried it will eat up some fuel mileage having a S/C for normal highway driving. I wonder if I can make the supercharger work with all of the 3.0 accessories and pulleys, I used a Mr,510 adapter so I wouldn't have to use the 3.3 accessories. I definitly feel like a S/C would be easier than having to reroute exhaust and finding a spot for the turbo to sit.

  7. did you also get that other hole plugged? I am sure you did, but if not, I ended up just welding a cheap socket into the hole. found one that fit, welded it in and filled the 3/8" drive hole. Sucks about the exhaust leak!! ive had mine work its way lose and blew out a gasket on the drivers side. changing it wasn't to bad.

  8. I bought the headers about 3 years ago, and also bought a second collector last year because I bent mine on a rock. They both came flanged. just slid it onto the two header pieces and bolted it up. I remember it taking a bit of bending or prying to get it to line up right, just due to it being aftermarket and stuff on my pathfinder being bent or what ever. but still went together easy.

  9. That is great to hear! So I won't be doing anything with the old ECU, since I have a manual trans. Does your AC work separately as well? or will that rely on the computer?

     

    What do you do for a CEL, does mega squirt do anything? I cant imagine you really need anything besides a knock sensor, oil pressure, water temp, but I could be wrong. I feel like the CEL is probably not necessary anymore.

     

    Thanks for posting the gauge pod link! I am stoked I can get a paint matched gauge pod!

  10. I have a question, I know I can PM you but keeping it on the forum allows other people to learn as well. I am about to start my research and purchasing to upgrade my fuel injectors, use megasquirt, and probably at the same time or later build the turbo kit. Question is, I know the mega squirt is managing the engine instead of the stock ECU, and If I understand right, the stock ECU is staying in to manage the rest of the car, is that correct? Are you still able to maintain the stock guages? Or do the guages become dead and you had to install aftermarket hardware?

     

    Also, were you able to find an A-pillar guage mount for your boost, O2 sensor, etc that fit well in the pathy?

     

    Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions!
