    1st gen buying advice - S/C worth it?

    I personally would stay away from a supercharger. I have an 03 frontier and stock it was a dog. Last winter I installed reground Camshafts. Totally woke the truck up. The cams that it comes with stock are super tiny to meet emissions. It makes the engine work so hard that your MPG suffers and...

    TrailNest Hammock Roof Rack MK11 100% markup

    This is ridiculously high. Your all talking about welding... I don't see any welds. Its all bolted together. Some aluminum tubing, A chop saw and some nuts and bolts. Oh lets not forget the "Universal Mounting Exhaust Clamps" Sure they have a nifty hinge but still wouldn't pay that much

    Wireless charging for phones

    Dude. The Samsung wireless fast charger on my desk states on the back. Input 5.0v-2.0A, 9.0v-1.67V. So how is your statement valid? All the wireless chargers I have seen use a micro usb connection. Which, you guessed it is DC voltage.

    Teardrops: Does shape affect MPG?

    My friend who is a aerodynamics professor helped a friend design his home built teardrop. He agreed with the above statement. He had a radius that was pretty small like 10-12 inches that he said it didn't matter if you went over this.

    1973 Datsun Camper

    Saw this. Thought it was cool. Not 4x4 but could be a cool project for someone. Wonder if I could swap the camper for the bed on my 03 frontier longbed crew cab. :Wow1: https://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/d/1973-datsun-camper-rare/6343204584.html

    Another bumper question (Fontiers)

    I would be curious if a "tougher" bumper would/could make an airbag deploy sooner or at a lower impact than its designed to. My reasoning is that a stiffer bumper would bend less and thus not absorb the energy and transfer it into the chassis. So while your bumper may be straight, it crumpled...

    Not So Subtle E350 Shuttle - 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

    Ya but not cheaper than mid-century modern houses. But I cant give you complete blame for this one. My wife always liked them a lot and so did I but not enough to LOOK for one. After your thread I realized I love open floor plans. So our search has narrowed a lot. Small towns in Kansas dont...

    crumbling catalytic converter

    I have a 2003 frontier with the vg33e. I'm putting in some new exhaust manifold gaskets and I was looking at my pre cats and they looked good at first glance but then I started to look at the edges and you can see where some has broken off. should I be worried about this and replace them or...

    1988 ford E250 Hightop swap 1997 E350

    Well if you have both. You are the best person to answer the question. Get a tape measure out and go to town. Roof curvature is probably going to be the biggest issue if LxW is the same.

    Gregor, Thank you so much for taking the time to document this and all of your builds. I just found your house/garage build and have wasted much time looking through it and am only a few pages in. Your willingness to take the time to share and teach along your journeys is something that isn't...

    New Build - The Green Hulk

    Ok. Sounds like you are well versed. I have always had good luck with ITM pistons. They are running in my Turbo Datsun 260z pushing 20psi and around 400 hp for a while now. THe ITM website does say they make them for the montero engines also.
