The full show of the run is this Sunday on Spike TV.

The heater core is the high point in the cooling system. Only takes a little air bubble to air lock the water flow through the heater and kill idle heater performance. The water ports in the engine are large enough that at idle the water pump can't push that air bubble out. Path of least...

Or equilivent, and in the Nissan sub-forum. I am guessing you are looking at what Nissan options exist as compared to a Trooper? I think that is what you are asking anyway. What age/price point are you looking at? I know old troopers can be had for under a grand. Friend kept a collection and...

Duel batteries are common on diesels to provide enough power to the big starter motor needed to bring a cold diesel to life. In warmer weather a single batter will generally start them. But get it cold, with a long glow plug warmup before the starter is engaged, there may not be enough battery...

Depending on the state you live in, and the vehicle inspections, you may not pass inspection and not be able to get it registered and legal to drive on the street. I really hated how much mud/sand/gunk the tires sprayed down the sides of the vehicle. You can't drive with your arm out an open...

Just saw you have the winch ground on the battery. Normally I would agree with that. And old school that is done correctly. But with Nissan's computer charge control you may find the battery not charging back up like it should. Look on the negative battery cable and there is an inductive...

Put the bolt back in. How clean does it have to be? How much effort do you want to put into it?

It is possible to actually have better geometry with a small block then running a higher arc spring. In short it has to do with the roll steer of the rear axle. Blocks are used by the OEMs even though it would be easy enough to just spec a spring with a higher arc. As far as an OEM application...

I despise the VG33 engine. V8 fuel economy with I4 power. The VQ engine not only has more power, but in an even drive with a VG it will deliver better mileage as well. From what I can tell is that you are still going to be using this as a daily driver as well? If you are building a dedicated...

I believe the original color is "argent silver"

No worse then any other aftermarket stuff.

Good stuff. Not lightweight.

I look at the rub blocks and the slip ring as moving parts with no lube, out in the fairly nasty environment under a vehicle, spinning at thousands of RPM and if it fails you are stuck. It is designed to disconnect the driveshaft for a need that you don't have. I just see this as a late...

It is something to be deleted. Sure looks like a disconnect. Looks like a problem waiting to happen. Probably the easiest fix is to just find a normal driveshaft (used junkyard) and put that in. If you have a good driveshaft shop nearby they should be able cut that slip ring stuff off and...

Sprayed with a liquid coating, you mean like a bed liner type material? That will pretty much act the same as a dynamat.

Where is it going to be at in the show? I'll be at SEMA Wednesday through Friday. Might have to make sure I stop by and see it.

What motor did your '01 have? The 3.3 is COMPLETELY different then the 3.5 engine.

That news release was about 6 months ago.

Does it have a "premium fuel recomended" sticker inside the fuel door? If not, don't expect much if anything. If it does, you may see a gain in performance and economy.

3 hours away, abandoned because of problems... It would have to be nearly free to even consider it. Ignor my comment about rust. I was thinking of the old R50 ('96-04) pathfinders. The '06 is a good platform. Pretty much the same as the Frontier that is still in production today. Usually the...
