Hello to all,
My name is Nick Herman from the foothills/mountains of North Carolina. This is the first forum I have joined so bare with me if I sound like an idiot. I have a 1999.5 Pathfinder SE Limited, 3.3L, 5 speed, 4x4 with relatively low miles (140k). I purchased her in October of last year with 131k and have enjoyed every minute in the driver seat. I found NPORA while trying to find a lift kit (practically impossible) but after reading through a few threads I have gotten the gist of how to piece one together. I have basically put only mods that a high schooler could think of, HIDs, new door speakers, double din head unit and subwoofer and a Yakima basket for camping weather and the Powderhound for my snowboarding adventures.
The only thing I do not like about my Pathy is that while in fifth gear goin' 70 mph down the interstate, she is turning a hair over 3000 RPMs. Is this normal? Seems a little high to me. Possibly my model has an odd gear ratio? Either way, Glad to be a member and hope to post as often as I can!
