  1. the titan diffs aren't nearly as bad as the 05-06 Xterra/Fronty. regardless, nissan fixed that problem in the 07+ models. the Titan diffs never really had these issues.
  2. which brings me back to my previous point: that sure is a lot of money for 190wtq.
  3. the titan wasn't made for off-roading.
  4. bore/stroke would be 1:1 everything would be custom anyway, so you could put your wrist pin as high or low as you want.
  5. how are you planning on stroking the VG33E by 6mm? are you doing offset rod journals? are you having a custom crank built? why are you only boring to 92mm? the VG33E has very thick cylinder walls and you can easily bore to 95mm; maybe even more as long as you're not going with any boost/nitrous. and while you're at it, get a custom crank built with more than +6mm stroke. if you're going to do it, do it right. 95x95mm = 4.0L
  6. it was 83F and sunny today. same tomorrow...
  7. welcome! i just hope we have enough room for 2 QX4s!

  9. everyone knows AC overcharges on shipping.
  10. i always use my parking brake, even on level ground; i use it to lock the rear wheels when breaking the lugs lose. i also always forget to release it when removing the drum. what i meant by setting the parking brake, is to make sure you adjust it properly so they actually do hold the vehicle. since i bought my pathfinder, i haven't replaced the rear shoes. i've replaced the front pads probably a dozen times or so. they just don't wear very quickly. the last time i had the drum off, i saw i was getting close, but i won't worry about it until i can hear it.
  11. the front gears are reverse cut, not the rear. why do you want rear gears? you either have 4.3s or 4.6s. you can get 4.9s out of an Xterra, or you can do 5.13 aftermarket.
  12. how much did it cost you to bore out the center holes in your Titan wheels?
  13. that's just surface rust. don't worry about it.
  14. you can get replacement front tow hooks from 4x4parts.com and use a shackle in your hitch. you could remove the ball and mount the shackle in the hole, or buy a special hitch that slides into the receiver. personally I just use a 5/8 grade-8 bolt to secure the strap eye inside the receiver itself.
  15. i don't have All-Mode 4WD, but if the auto hubs are vacuum-actuated, you may be hearing the vacuum pump.
  16. I'm trying to get one of these made for my pathy: if/when it's done I will trade my ARB and Warn M8000 for an ARB rear locker and LOKKA front locker. I'll even pay for shipping within the lower 48 states. the combo cost me $2k+ and the lockers can be purchased for about $1300. of course cash is accepted. anybody interested? just trying to make sure i could find a buyer if i spend more money on another front bumper. EDIT: I'm meeting the guy this weekend to get a quote on bumpers and sliders. I'll try and take pics of his work; maybe if my stuff turns out well, he can use my bumpers as templates to build more.
  17. 1900CAD is about 1500USD. perhaps the 300USD extra includes taxes, duties, and freight shipping.
  18. electric supercharger and universal intercooler from Amazon. sounds like a plan! /sarcasm
  19. stroking a 350 to 383 takes displacement from 5.7 to 6.3 liters. also, what mods were done in conjunction with the stroker kit? pistons? cam? heads? headers? for the money of stroking a VG33, you're better off swapping in a sbc350 or sbf351, or throwing on a aftermarket blower like vortech or procharger. 50% torque increase is just not gonna happen from that small of a stroke increase.
  20. that's freaking awesome. do you plan on taking orders on these? i will for sure be on your list!
  21. 50% torque increase is a bit optimistic, imo. for the same money I'd rather have a vortech with custom brackets.
  22. oh ok, thanks for the clarification. i didn't know you had that many lights!
