doughboy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 looks like its coming along well.... my dad got this bright Idea the other day to get ahold of a 3.3 S/C frontier that has light damage, shorten the frame and swap my pathy body on to it.... would be interesting to do.... he thinks he might be able to pull it off alongside his 3.5 swap into his maxima.... who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatutoryApe Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 that would be cool to have a pathy on a frame like that. and i didn't know that max's had anything smaller than a 3.5. i thought they came with them. did it come w/ the 2.5 or what?

doughboy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 they didnt get the 3.5 until 2002... before that it was a 3.0. as a matter of fact the 89-94 maxima had the VG30I or VG30E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, remember that the SC engines require premium gas only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatutoryApe Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Either way, remember that the SC engines require premium gas only. ya, screw that. it's possible to end up payin more money/mile driven that way. but you'd get way more power :tonguefinger: and i don't think i'll be done w/ the body swap by tomorrow. hahaha. i've been kinda too lazy to work on it, since it's gettin hotter and all and it ain't gettin done in that short of time period anyway. i'll just take my family's tracker camping. lol. plus i've been busy gettin camping stuff together for my friends and all.

StatutoryApe Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 so right now the red body is about ready to be lifted off. now on to the black one! after i transfer my car port first. haha. here's some pix. that's all the wires. i'd take them out of the truck and lay them on the ground to show you guys how much wiring is in there, but i wanna keep them in the truck for storage purposes. http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/ch620/P8020135.jpg http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/ch620/P8020136.jpg http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/ch620/P8020137.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StatutoryApe Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 hahaha, i was wondering if anyone was gonna say anything about that bag. it was just a random bag that i grabbed to put parts in lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatutoryApe Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) another update: both trucks are ready for lift off. T-minus: whenever my friends are available. so i got bored and did a chop job of what my pathy will look like after the swap. i'll be keeping my rear hatch just cause it says "SE" on it and it has that black piece of trim that goes horizontally across the middle of it. idk, my red hatch is more aesthetically pleasing to me. i'll swap over my red gas hatch cuz it has to be opened from inside the truck, that way some random person can't siphon my gas. plus it adds to the red/black effect. i'll do the same thing w/ my 4x4 symbols above the triangle windows for the same reason. aaand i'll use my red hood cuz it came outta the crash unscathed, and i'd like to keep my pathy as original as possible. and i'll use the red fenders that MWS included w/ the pathy. has anyone ever put a 60/40 seat in the back of their pathy? idk if you guys have sat in the middle rear seat, but the edges of the 50/50 seat go right up your crack! anyway, here's the chop job. http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/ch62...tires-4copy.jpg Edited August 4, 2008 by StatutoryApe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
