  1. It's a case of Ty being an idiot. It's a joke, howdy!
  2. If you're sure you can't use an Optima, try an Exide Orbital. Same concept as the Optima. You may also want to look into Odyssey batteries. They're not cheap, but there's a reason for it. However, I've seen plenty of 03/04s with Optimas, so I know it can be done, just might take a little creativity on your part.
  3. It sounds like it's in Limp Mode due to one of the numerous problems that is triggering the MIL Indicator. Have the DTCs read and let us know what they are. We can't really help you any further than what we already have without knowing the codes. It's also possible, however unlikey, that since the truck was abused so badly, and neglected so severely, that the timing chain has stretched and there's too much slack which is throwing off the timing... But yeah, definitely get it out of that shop. Another idea for ya. Some Nissan dealers will offer a free 100-point inspection that includes scanning codes, they'll also give you an estimate on how much it would cost to have them fix it - but you can do it yourself a lot cheaper if you're mechanically inclined. If your local dealer offers this service, you can bring it in and have them tell you everything that's wrong with it, then you can know exactly what needs fixed.
  4. Well, it's 3:42AM, and I'm awake...you do the math.
  5. Spun from the What Song Are You Listening To Right Now, thread.... If you were going to be driving somewhere, by yourself, say...2 hours away, and had 10 songs to bring with you on a CD, what would they be? These can be your 10 favorite songs, the 10 best driving songs (in your opinion, of course as everybody's tastes in music is different), or your 10 favorite wheeling songs, or just 10 songs you happen to like right now...share em! For me, my top 10, all time, favorite driving (not necessarily related to driving, or roads, or cars, but songs that I like to drive to) songs are: 10: Life Is A Highway - Chris Ledoux 09: Too Many Humans - Buckethead 08: Hotel California - The Eagles 07: Not Too Beautiful - Beta Band 06: Turn The Page - Bob Seger 05: I Am The Highway - Audioslave 04: Slow Ride - Foghat 03: Highway To Hell - AC/DC 02: The Joker - Steve Miller Band 01: Radar Love - Golden Earring
  6. Yowch....that's pretty gnarly dude. Definitely going to be a badass scar!
  7. Well, he said that he may buy a newer one in the future, and 15s don't really work on the newer ones, unless the brake pads are half worn. 16s would make his life easier if he were to switch the wheels over to a newer R50.
  8. As has already been said, it's your rear lower control arm bushings. I would recommend replacing all of the suspension bushings, as well as the steering rack bushings. Since it's an LE, it's got the Bose Stereo. Those are problematic, and very common to fail. Just buy an aftermarket unit to replace it, you'll be happier in the long run. As said before, could be the master switches on the drivers door. This could be due to a number of things. Get the codes pulled and post all of the MIL Codes for us, we'll be able to help you further. e.g. IACV valve, MAF sensor, TPS, just to name a few... Was the truck doing this before you went through the lake and killed the engine? Sounds like you ruined a MAF. This could also be due to your control arm bushings. Replacing those will tighten up the entire vehicle. Also, it could be the u-joints on your driveshaft. Fuse, or clock....or the wires came unplugged.
  9. You've got these wheels, correct? 15x6.5" Steel wheels, backspacing is 4.75".
  10. Yep, that's especially common among the Import crowd with their cold air intakes sitting 3" off the ground. LOL. Oh yeah, by the way, Alex (not alexrex), how's your hand man?
  11. Well, it was: The Deftones - My Own Summer Now it's Pink Floyd - On The Run And I don't think I'm going to sleep tonight....
  12. Darius Rucker - It Wont Be Like This For Long
  13. Hayley Westenra - Somewhere Over The Rainbow Yeah, that's right....I said it!
  14. Grown, like....Brown with hints of green.
  15. I think the more accurate color would be Grown.
  16. My new rig!!!! No, I couldn't find one in white...
  17. Two words...Max Stryker - 38.5" boggers on his R50. Two more words....Tyler M. - VH45 V8 and a SAS... Just takes a little more creativity to get it done, and it's so much more impressive when it is!!
  18. Israel "Iz" Kamakawiwo'ole - In This Life
  19. That sucks Alex. Be careful man! Heal up soon!
