hello, my name is paul, im a nissan guy for life, this is my 20th datsun/nissan/infiniti. i've had a 69 510, 72 520 p/u, 80 720 pu, 2 s12 200sx's, 2 hardbodies, 8 s13 240sx's, infiniti g20, 08 frontier, 10 titan, 12 juke, and now just picked up my first pathy so i can stop beating up my juke in the woods haha!

 

my pathfinder is pretty stock, 95 xe 5spd 160k, just got it a couple weeks ago for $1500! it is really clean now that i detailded it a little. i threw on some wildcat 31's on gm 16's that i had to grind on for hrs to clear the front hubs, it was a major pain but worth it since i got them so cheap lol. it already has the timing belt, thermo, camseals, water pump, and clutch, so it was pretty good to go.

 

here's my pathfinder

here's my juke, its tons of fun on the road, and on gravel/dirt, but not so good on rough terrain lol. i've done a few things to it, custom catback exhaust, injen intake, injen intercooler piping, turbosmart kompact reserculation valve (blow off), 1.4" P.I. lowering springs, 19" carbon dipped enkei gtc-01 wheels, custom built and dipped grill, and a few other dipped parts on the car. i own wiseconceptshydro.com

 

she loves the dirt!!! :lol:

Welcome, that is quite a list! :blink:

 

Sounds like you got a good deal on your pathy since it seems to be in good shape and well maintained. :aok:

Make sure to 'overfill' the MT with 5.1 liters of GL-4 only or proper synthetic as per a TSB posted in the Garage/TSB section. That's my little tip for the day... :D

 

I'm starting to like those little Jukes, at least they put the door handle in the right place. I like the Bend area as well, hopefully I'll visit again.

Welcome! If we are handing out tips, looks like the torsion bars need to be leveled out or reindexed. Good looking rigs!

 

thanks for the tips guys! i turned up the torsions already, one of the pics were from before it was level, and the river pic you can't really tell... 575291_520076021407669_158198143_n_zpsba

Welcome to the club. Your pathy looks clean. Looks like a stripper model with crank windows and such? nice and basic! Looks kind of cool with the K1500 4x4 wheels.

 

I actually really like the Jukes and I see quite a few around here in Northern Nevada. Man, if you could get one with the 6spd and the torque vectoring AWD that would be sick! You can pick up the 6 speed stick, mid-level FWD's over in Sac for cheap!

Hey Paul! I'm a newbie here just like, but it's a friendly place to poke around.

 

And like you, nearly every car & truck we've owned has been a Nissan. Started with a Sentra in 87. Along the way I've had a few Maxima, an '98 Pathy, a couple Armada and a couple Xterra. I don't know about the Juke, though. Maybe if it came in green... :lol:
