  1. Just ordered a cobra radio today from amazon, received my Lil will antenna and waiting for the 36 inch whip for the antenna. Thinkin about mounting the cb where the ash tray is. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  2. I'll head out for a day. What camp ground are you planning to be at? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  3. Got a email from lokka today confirming that they do not make one for a 4 pinion r200 diff. Guess I need to find one with 2 pinion or a welder. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
  4. Yeah, forgot fuel filter. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  5. How long have you owned it? If you've recently bought it and are not familiar with a 3.0l then it's probably normal. Mine tacs out at 3250 rpm at 70 mph, bigger hills I have downshift to 4th gear. Mines a 90 se with 31x10.50 tires (stock size). Just want to make sure your not trying to fix "normal". All the other guys are right on the money with there recommendations. I would be inclined to check compression and leak down percentage if you truly feel there is a lack of power and the o2 and mass airflow sensor are ok. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  6. VQ40 swap? That would be a sleeper! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  7. Um yeah, you got a little over 150 hp, better get a good run at those hills! Lol! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  8. Looked mine and a 95 up this morning, 90 is for sure a 4 pinion and as of production date 12/94 they are 2 pinion style. Sent an email to lokka to inquire about application this morning. Hopefully they will get back to me within the next couple days. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  9. I work at Nissan, one of those stealership mechanics. I looked up in the service manual to see what's involved. There are 2 types of front diff's listed for a 90. So when I went to the lokka site and put in my vehicle info they had one for the 4 and 6 cylinder front diff's only. I'll try calling it emailing them today to see what they say. Thanks for the info. Would suck to buy one and either have to return it or find a front diff that it would work in. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  10. When I checked for my 90 year model, their web site said I'm good. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  11. I got a set from you early this year, I got a little over 1 3/4" lift. I'm not sure how much the stock springs were sagged out. I've been really happy with them so far. The ride is good, not to stiff. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  12. Come over and wax mine? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  13. Just found this old bulletin. Chemical block tester. Leakdown tester. Still curious where the coolant went. Have safe trip and keep an eye on the coolant level. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  14. Replaced my clutch master cylinder, changed the oil with Mobil one synthetic, ordered a CB (vintage Cobra 21x) and filled up the gas tank. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  15. Looking for coolant being pushed out of the radiator while testing with a leak down tester is what I mean. Example, when testing cylinder 3, coolant is being pushed out of the radiator when the cap is not on it. That would indicate a breach between the cylinder and a coolant passage.And what I mean by seeing and smelling coolant is with that much loss you should see or smell it after a drive.

  16. Lol, looks like this post got buried below other topics. I have a hiking app and it works ok but the places I've gone I've been riding dirt bikes at for years so I know them pretty well. I installed clinometer in mine because I wanted to make sure I didn't roll over, the movement from them is pretty normal when turning/braking etc. because of the mechanical nature of their function. Anyway hanging out in the garage tonight, enjoying a beer and watching this thing they call RAIN! Cheers! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  17. It should. Unless it is a head gasket issue. The best way I've found is to do a leak down test. If it has a breached head gasket it will push the coolant out of the top if the radiator when the cap is removed. When using a block tester or 5 gas analyzer to "sniff" the coolant you don't always get a conclusive result. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  18. Does it have a 3.3L or a 3.5L? On the 3.3 the intake gaskets will leak on the passenger rear and is really difficult to see. Seems like with that much coolant loss you should see something. Milky sludge under the oil cap? Milky oil or trans fluid? Runs rough for a few seconds when cold started? Do you smell coolant when driving or after you get out of your car?

  19. Hey man, a block tester checks for basically exhaust gas in the cooling system. Kind if looks like a turkey baster with a couple separate sections one which you put a blue detection liquid in, when you pull a sample from the radiator if exhaust is present the liquid will turn green. But they don't always work that great. Got one somewhere in my tool box at work that I never use. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  20. Remember that box well. With a little finesse and patience its an easy installation. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  21. Not a bad job to do, patience, a good magnet(just in case), some loctite you'll be ok. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  22. Lol, I can appreciate that! When my wife and I were dating, took her dirt bike riding. It was a nasty, rainy, sloppy, muddy day. She told me that she could ride. That girl jumped on a YZ250, dropped the clutch and needless to say 18 years later she's still my buddy! Still don't tell her that I've spent more than $100 on anything I buy! Your in the right place. There is a ton of information here and some really clever modifications outlined in this forum. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  23. Really happy with my OME springs, had to wait a little bit however since being installed I've got no complaints. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  24. Congrats on the fiance going out if town! First bit of advise from what my father in-law tells me, "it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission"! If you love the pathfinder, get as much done to it as possible before you get married! Lastly never ever tell your fiance/wife that you've spent more than $100.00 no matter what you do to it! Congrats and enjoy the pathfinder! And maybe the fiance/wife 3 weeks out of the month Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
  25. I've thought of that also, I just don't have the fabrication skill or tools to do something like that. Certainly would be a more solid type of coupling. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
