i was thinking of putting a spool or welding the front diff, because its only spinning when in 4 wheel drive... would this just be crazy stupid to drive on road in snow or will i snap cv axles off road? just looking for input.

just weld the diff, it can increase your torque by 25% and increase gas mileage by 10% its also cheapest option.

on my car there is a line that runs down the middle of the windshield and over to the passenger side and connected to a lead what is this for. it does have a normal antenna on the fender...

one thing i always wanted to try is put some dual cam heads on from a maxima or a 300z looks like the same physical size dont know if the intake matches up though and i think there is one more idler for the timing belt... junk yard would be the best bet

the next mod i will be doing... is the manual steering gear from what year, can it be from a hardbody.

i got the kit from 4x4 parts and it comes with all the hardware and a bunch of spare bolts that i had no idea where they go. the only thing i had to do is drop the radiator so it fit with the fan, i flipped the upper mounting brackets upside down and it dropped it perfectly. i had to cut the body where the lower radiator supports usually went and weld in some small tubing so the rubber mounts will fit in(still haven't got around to it) the rear bumper had to have new holes drilled to fit closer, and the rear license plate bracket i cut in half and flipped upside down and it looks good now. the brake lines have to be stretched at the coils. and my p/s reservoir still isnt bolted down but the line is in a body clip so it dont move around.

why dont we organize a npora trail run? i see a lot of people on the forums are from washington or oregon... why dont we have any events on the calendar? i live 45 minutes from mt hood and almost anywhere in between there is a designated off road trails. i just think it would be cool to see more action of the npora members.

i guess what im asking is that if i were to just floor the gas pedal will it rev the engine past 6k until it just self destructs or will it cut spark/fuel. i know i have gone past the dotted red line (5.5k) many times with no problem (smoke isnt a problem). but i know a lot of cars that i have had before like newer civics will cut the spark and you can just do a burnout with the pedal to the floor and it will cut spark so it doesent go past the red line and bend valves, it will just rev and bounce around the red line.

i have never had the balls to test if my car has one... can some one give more input? note: 93 honda accords dont, i USE to have one. lol.

i know some car companies (honda) will replace the seat belts if they are slow to retract, torn, or dont work... for as long as the car exists, for free. does nissan do the same? my seat belts all dont retract and pop out of the buckle sometimes...

does any one know the stock wheel offset? i have steelies on my truck now with 3O x 9.5 R15 but the wheels stick out too far from the fenders, i want some that look more stockish... thanks

you could have broke some carbon loose with the sea foam and then sucked it up and clogged the oil pick up screen, i would check the oil pressure... my truck has the intermittent lifter noise in "waves" too imo it was due to the oil pressure fluctuating a little with worn lifters.

on that year i dont think the cv axles turn unless in 4 wheel drive so you will be fine until you need 4x4 but till then use duct tape

some times the fuse link will get corroded from the inside and the insulation on the outside is normal looking, try twisting or feeling through it to see if there i still wire in it. i would check the crank sensor signal i think its in the distributor...

i dont belive in using any additives at all ive seen most of them do more damage then any benefit, besides lucas oil or higher end brand stuff. as for the coleman oil or a engine oil solution to break up deposits... i have seen that clog the oil pick up screen and then your screwed, and have to remove the oil pan. just do regular oil changes and you will be fine use good oil too and you wont have any problems

all the post cat sensor does is to test to see if the cat is working, if your car was running rich for a long while you could have burnt out your cat could be expensive test the o2s before you do anything or you can go under it and beat on your cat with a fist to hear if the inside material has broken loose it will rattle around in there

are you sure its a knock from detonation or from metal contact like rod? as far as the oil light goes i wouldnt worry about it since it turns off quickly, need heavier oil?

15 inch rims is basicly a standard size for trucks there is more tire options for this wheel, but as for 16 inch rims is the "new school" popular wheel size but its usually more expensive. as for wheels a lot interchange as toyota trucks, isuzu, some chevy trucks. i say stick with steelys because they are cheap ($25 new), durable, basic.

my last car which was a 91 lincoln towncar was searched almost every time it was pulled over and i had that for like 6 months and was pulled over too many times to count. when i got my pathfinder i have had it for almost a year and only been pulled over once. its a good thing this car isnt suspicious looking because cops do profile.

mine did when i first got it it leaked through the screw holes on the hinges, i unscrewed the rear window from the hinges and used gasket sealer on the rubber piece, hasnt leaked since. honda bond is the @!*%.

so my car has about 220000 miles and the transmission is noisy in all gears but 4th, i was wondering if any one else has tried to fix this or is it cheaper to replace the whole thing? i have a friend that works at a tranny shop and i can get a deal on parts/labor.

just took a road trip and when your listening to the stereo at full blast your gas mileage gets worse and i can see my rpms drop when the bass hits

got any pics of what a good one looks like?

compared to other cars its age i dont think its that bad like 4runners(3.0l) are definitely slower but i think a chevy blazer (4.3l) could take it

so i know you can stretch out the coils on the passenger side but my brake lines are all slanted at the fire wall any one know a way to make them look prettier? and also my abs light came on too...
