Well no one rly knows me on here but i got my pathfinder christmas day this past december. has a newer motor in it from japan, stock transmission 280+ thousand on it. The decision i am needing to make is this. My second gear in my trans grinds all the time unless trans is rly hot. My alternator bearings are going out on the pulley, My tensioner is messed up, belts keep coming loose, timing belt and water pump need done. I work for a parts store and all but my problem is this. I bought it for 1000$$$$$ I put new tires, system, new entire front suspension, full tune up, and i am sure more stuff just cant think of. Do you think it is gonna be worth it for me to dump another grand into the pathfinder or try and get a new one? i am a 2ws pathfinder also. Any tips or hints hit me with them. Thanks guys.

Even if you put $2000 in it, that is only about 6 months worth of payments. If you really like it, the put the money in, if not then cut your losses and go with a newer one. Just my $.02.

OG has a very good point...

 

Do you plan to need 4wd or is 2wd good enough for your use? If not, consider looking around for a 4wd (and lower milage) with a blown motor. Swap your motor into it and whatever parts are better and wind up with a solid truck for not a lot of $... :shrug:
