NAPA Generic ATF 2001 Pathfinder
McFalconPunch replied to ChemExposure's topic in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders
Mine did that when I first got it. I ran some Seafoam Transtune in it, then drained the fluid 500 miles later. Refilled with Castrol Import ATF. No issues since. -

It is the same as Valvoline i believe. Check on bobistheoilguy forums if it is compatible with the Nissan fluid Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk -

The rears are on! Had to cut off the sway bar links (lucky I had new). The fronts will go on tomorrow morning. Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk -
+1 on belts and pulleys. I got Acdelco pulleys off Amazon for a lot cheaper than your local auto parts store and Gatorback belts for $20 for both off eBay. The bearings in my pulleys were completely shot at 150k. Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk

VQ35 excess oil consumption - Is it terminal?
McFalconPunch replied to Martinjmpr's topic in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders
You're probably right about that leaking under load. I know mine is wet, but I never see a spot on my driveway or at work. I know some people have just tightened it and that fixed their problems. The parts are cheap enough and if you can change an oil filter, you can change the seals on the oil cooler. I've owned an RX7 so im no stranger to adding oil. I just buy 2 5 quart jugs and add as needed. I have about 3.5 quarts left in the second jug with 1500 miles to go until I change my oil. -
Doing a 4" SFD without much fab experience

The rear brake line is part # BHA381108, which is off a 98 Frontier. Its close to 21 inches while ours is 16 or 17 inches. Rear shocks, at least for Bilstein 5100's are 33-185552. -

http://www.nissanforums.com/pathfinder/142468-2001-pathfinder-odd-oil-leak-pics.html#post1251310 I think I paid $15 for both seals at my local Nissan dealer, theres a "kit" on ebay for $12. I need to do mine also, but it can wait until I change the oil again. I don't think its the cause of my oil loss, because there are no spots on my driveway or parking spot at work.

My dipstick is dry around 1500 miles. What I have been doing is just buying 2 of those 5 quart jugs of oil and just adding as needed. Having owned a RX7 at one point in my life, oil usage is not a big deal for me.

Exactly what I want! It will probably all be put on this weekend weather permitting and if my son decides he wants to be born. -

It's all good. If it sits too high, I'll just take out a spacer Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk -

Spacers and OME MD Rear Springs
McFalconPunch replied to McFalconPunch's topic in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders
On their website, it says the OME 2922 is a .50 to .75 lift for the rear, or am i missing something? -
Spacers and OME MD Rear Springs
McFalconPunch replied to McFalconPunch's topic in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders
Already got it ordered just in case from Advance! $12 - TRT30 = $8.40, Cheap insurance. I ordered a pair of Bilstein 33-185552 (5100's) whenever I do all of this so it will be needed. Thanks guys! -

Also, did you have to install the D22 Frontier brake line for the rear? -

I found your build thread, Thanks anyways! That's what I was expecting, I like it! -
Sorry to start another topic on lifts, but I could not find an answer or anyone with the same setup. I bought a set of 2 inch front spacers second hand because I thought I would be saving money. It was honestly my fault because my mind put 2 inch spacers and 2 inches of lift as the same thing. So now i'm working with a 2.5 inch lift for the front. Struts and shocks are new, but stock. As for the rear, I bought new 2 inch spacers from Steve. I also bought OME MD (Medium Duty) springs for the rear. From my understanding the springs alone will raise the rear .5 - .75 inches. Im totally okay with the rear sticking up 1/4 of an inch higher than the front. So is this setup okay? Anyone have any pictures of the amount of lift i will be expecting?

I used locktite on the rack, I check it every once and a while and its still doing good! I did change out the bulbs for the dash and HVAC controls about a month ago. Haven't posted any updates because of work and my wife being very, very pregnant. I also put in an aftermarket stereo (Kenwood KDC-X500) to work with the existing Bose system. You just gotta make sure it has 4v outputs. It sounds alright, better than stock and now I have bluetooth connectivity. Bonus pic of the switch for the LED light bar. I wasn't paying attention and accidentally rubbed the side of the trim panel with my dremel. I also changed out the belts and pulleys. I felt the belts could look worse for being 14 years old. The bearings in both the pulleys were both shot. I replaced them with Gatorbacks and ACDelco pulleys. I did install my CB radio (Uniden Bearcat 880) that I had laying around along with a 3ft Firestik with hatch mount. I will post pics of that after I button everything up and tune the radio, probably sometime later this week. -
Mine did the same thing for a while. I changed the fuel pressure regulator and dampener to no avail. I finally cleaned the throttle body real good (both in and out) and the issue went away.
