Yeah I saw Harbinger's post. Thanks anyway, for flexplate bolts where do I buy them? Dealer? Also for wiring should I do it myself with someone helping me? Or should I pay someone? Thank you!!!
-
Can you please send me threads/how-tos for this so I have a rough idea
-
has anyone done a automatic to manual conversion?
cnd.vlad replied to whittoncrew's topic in 90-95 WD21 Pathfinders
Does anyone have a guide for the swap though? -
Hello, I'm back again! I've decided that I'm 100% manual swapping it. I will put all my effort into this and there is no backing out now! I wanted to ask what tools I'll be needing for the swap. I made this list: *4(or 3)ton jack stands *a hydraulic jack *a medium power driver *an assortment of wrenches *an assortment or sockets *a breaker bar I think that's it but I don't know, I might need more stuff. My main goal for now though is to remove the burnt auto. Please lemme know what's absolutely necessary and what's not, and of course if I should add anything to this list. Please link forums that might help. Thank you! EDIT: I totally forgot about the actual parts that would go on the Pathy. This is where I'm really lost. I figure to buy a donor car would be easier but here's my list: *Manual trans *Driveshaft *Wiring harness? *ECU? Please let me know what I missed!

Hey guys, newbie here again. I kinda bought this car not knowing what I'm getting into. I did figure out a couple things though because of you guys. 1)most likely my auto tranny is burnt to a crisp 2)fixing the dang thing ain't gonna be easy Now I got this car because I got jealous of others that had 4wheelers and side by sides and thought that this would be even cooler than their little toys with a little mods im also only 14 and im kind of stupid. I thought and still kind of think It would be fun to fix and drive with my dad. I have a permit by the way and can drive if my dads in the passengers seat. Heres the thing though, I want to keep this car throughout high school, I wanna grow up in this car. To fix it I need to either swap a manual or automatic into it. I still haven't started (ill start in late spring/early summer if all goes as planned) It seams easier to get a manual and have it last longer than 3 autos (without a tranny cooler) And I personally think manuals are cool Do you guys honestly think it's worth pursuing my wild dreams and fixing the damn thing or do you guys think I should just save up for another pathy. My pathy is as rest free as it gets, and I haven't started it since late summer and without doing anything but hooking up a jump starter it started right up yesterday. It makes me happy hearing it run. Should I sell this one, or get a new one? What would be easier, I bought this one for $200 (please bear with me, sorry)
-
Cant wait for this school year to end so I can get to fixing the pathy I hope "the virus" is over by that time.... also is there anyone else on NPORA that lives in Alaska?
-
sounds fun ill take the Xterra supercharger into consideration, sadly the ka idea is to much work lol ?
-
WHOAHHH that's cool, I guess im keeping the intake lol
-
Can we continue this conversation in the "building cnd.vlad's 94 XE" post just to be more organised also I figured how to use quotes sorry for not using them previously
-
wait that's weird I have a 94 XE and I have the orange LSD sticker on it?
-
Ok so what are guys saying, im horribly inexperienced should I just stick to an auto, and should I just stick to a wd21/d21 tranny instead of the r50/xterra/frontier tranny I was talking abt if It's better to get a r50/xterra/frontier tranny and it's worth going through the pain of wiring I will do that but I want to know what you guys think... Thanks a lot for the feedback sorry if I sound stupid
-
Ok then gotcha, it was just an idea because I figured the ka would have more aftermarket for it. I guess ill stick to my vg30e then and if I want more power ill go vg33 thanks for the feedback
-
Hey guys Noobie here, This is gonna be the topic where I'm going to be asking more experienced Pathy owners what to do with my pathfinder... My pathfinder has a shot transmission that needs to be replaced I was thinking that while I'm at it to swap in a Ka24e into it, I don't know if this is a good idea but I like the ka24e engine. Will it bolt up to a r50/xterra/fronteir tranny Let me know if this is possible and if so let me know if this is a good idea... Thank you!
-
Yeah I figured I had to replace it, but thanks for letting me know what fits :) Also am I the only one that thinks the vg30e intakes (the whole thing) look a little weird, is there a replacement that looks and preforms better?? Also do you think a junkyard manual is a good option im broke and the only place I can look for parts is the junkyard?
-
Well I guess ill go looking for a newer tranny (preferably a manual) from a r50/xterra/frontier because like I said I have lots of metal flakes
