If you use torque pro you can monitor airflow, coolant temp, o2 sensors, timing, maf, intake temp, speed, fuel trims, and a bunch of other stuff. Car gauge pro allows you to do the idle volume and self learning and adjust base timing 2 degrees plus or minus. You can do a ton of stuff

Vg33 have an iacv also

Ac coils up front by 4x4parts.com and Land Rover nrc9447 coils in back from lrdirect.com. The Brit part brand ones. This setup will run about 300 shipped. Get kyb gr2 shocks and struts from rockauto. This will run about another 120

Nice looking Q. Love the yellow corner lights

Do the pcv valve and pcv hoses while in there. They’re probably going to shatter

Do those powervalves while you’re in there too

I used a closed end wrench to remove that one in my 01 Q

Same problem for me in AZ. I have an hour drive home from work every day and have the blower on high/re-circ the entire drive and still get home sweaty

Next most beneficial mod after the lift is gonna be manual hubs

First off...you need to service the powervalve screws by backing them out and applying loctite to them. There’s a known issue where they can fall into the motor and cause catastrophic damage. The iacv gasket should also be replaced to avoid frying the ecu. Also....join the npora Facebook group. Far more activity on There. As far as rear coils....I’d go with wj coils or Land Rover coils. Depending on which Land Rover coils you get they will net you anywhere from 2 to four inches and are muuuuuch cheaper than ac with similar spring rates. If you’re gonna do an sfd....you won’t need front spacers as you’ll be building steel spacers as part of the sfd. Ac coils would work just fine for the front and lots of people use them with up to 6 inches of total lift

Those are the exact ones I just bought

Way cool guys. Can’t wait till this stuff starts becoming available. I’m super interested in the lift your coming up with that won’t require an sfd

Dammit! Everybody has a cool bumper but me! Lol

I would go this route too. And yes....all r50s have that piece

Raybestos makes a good brake pad. I’ve never used that specific pad....but I’ve used raybestos pads on lots of vehicles over the years

Leave it there. Get a snorkel and ditch it. Or build some sort of cover for it

Engine should be at the highest point. The bleeder nipple is at the back of the motor near the firewall sticking up behind the intake plenum. It has a rubber cap on it. Heater fan should be blowing on hot/high

I also removed some weight and drag by ditching the running boards and the roof rack and getting rid of the rear spoiler

I’m sure it does in part. But if you had manual hubs that were unlocked it should be close

Park on a steep incline. Open radiator cap. Remove rubber cap on coolant bleeder nipple on back of motor. Turn engine on. Pour coolant into rad until it flows out if bleeder nipple. Cap nipple. Continue to add coolant until full. Put cap back on. Drive for awhile. Let cool down. Check level. Add more if needed

After replacing all four o2 sensors, spark plugs and coils, advancing timing two degrees, new maf, cleaned throttle body, cleaned and adjusted tps, cleaned iacv, new pcv valve and hoses, replaced several cracked vacuum lines, replaced air intake elbow with custom elbow, new filters all around, tires at 39 psi I get about 19-20 freeway and 17 or so around town.

I got mine from amazon for 18.99

Then that would be beneficial. Best way to do that on an r50 is with a snorkel

Get your kybs from rockauto. Won’t find a better price. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/nissan,1997,pathfinder,3.3l+v6,1212051,suspension,strut,7584. No such thing as longer struts that I’m aware of that wouldn’t require serious modification. You won’t need longer ones for 2.5 inches of lift though. And don’t replace the control arms. Aftermarket ones are junk. Just replace the bushings with poly https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nolathane-Trailing-Arm-Lower-Bushing-FOR-NISSAN-PATHFINDER-R50-46045/283156264183?fits=Model%3APathfinder&epid=2294724819&hash=item41ed6db4f7:g:kkAAAOSwk~VcvjZO
