Patbastard’s R50 thread

[patbastard]

Picked up my 96 pathfinder in December from a guy who was using it as a 3rd vehicle and was moving.  Got a pretty good deal on it, and have done some things to it to get the mpg’s up, as when I got it I was getting single digit mpg (like 9mpg).  So far I’ve:

-Changed out the MAF sensor, TPS, coolant temp sensor, relocated the knock sensor, and changed both bank 1 O2 sensors.  

 

-Fixed the rear hatch (it had been rear ended and the lock mechanism was destroyed in the process, locking the hatch closed)

 

-Changed the fluids.

 

My future plans for it are to find some Land Rover springs for the rear and spacers for the front, new struts and rear shocks, new steering rack (mine is pissing power steering fluid, only leak on it), and a roof rack of some type.  I’ll add pictures as soon as I figure out how to resize them from my phone.
