Re: Transmission Fluid Dipstick - 10mm Bolt

IF they have any Nissan Frontiers, it will match as well.

Re: Where do I start?

thanks for the follow up. And it's not just the R51. I can recall this same issue with any vehicle that has a failing one. I'm a bit surprised that there wasn't a CEL. It's the same with the camshaft position sensors. When one side goes, the other seems to follow shortly afterwards. Not sure how it ...

Re: Working with an Exhuast company to get a kit for R51s

I had a shop basically add a stainless steel Y pipe back in December. It's a great addition to make the full throttle sound like a V8. This price sounds more than reasonable for a cat back solution. Interested in the pics after you've done it. Mine was done by a shop and to be honest, the most money...

Re: Are there "Tuners" available to us?

not really answering the question, however, from what I've read, the best thing that you can do, to the 4.0, is install the plenum spacer.
It gives the torque increase in the right power band, and it's a bolt on. Z1 sells their own version of it now.

Re: Need to replace struts on 08 PF... are MacPherson good?

Rockauto has KYB assemblies for $142, or $284 for a set, A total difference of: $60 from the MacPherson brand, assuming that $113 is for each? KYB (Japan) is the manufacturer that made your OEM struts. It's not even close in quality IMHO. Replacing the assembly, as a whole, cuts the labour time trem...

Crash Zone Sensor - P1035 Code - fixed for $10

Watch out for this one folks For the folks in any snow and salt prone areas, might be worth an inspection on condition of your front zone crash sensor. What I had: blinking air bag light. Used my TopDon TopScan and found code P1035. It's a communication fault of the front crash zone sensor. The sens...

Manufacturer of Nissan Rear differentials - AWD

Seems easy to find the answers to the model/make of he Dana rear solid axles for Nissan. Who makes the rears differentials for the AWD platforms, with the independant suspension? Seems little information to go, in regards to R51, QX80, Armada Rear differentials. I'm not scheming something as yet wit...

Re: 2010 R51 - Effort to remove a/c pipes to rear?

I guess A/C pipes are self explanatory, but I was wondering if these were the A/C heating lines, or the cooling lines that were leaking.... Many folks just wind up isolating those refrigerant lines in the engine compartment / wheel well (with a kit for some $20-30), as the expense seems not worth fi...

Re: ‘05 Pathfinder on youtube

This is a perfect video!

highlights, to the point, where to look and what the issues are with the age of the vehicle.

There is a follow up video where he finds, and performs the fixes as well (just posted yesterday).

The frame looks excellent, though.

Re: VK Swap (Column shift vs Floor Shift) calling smj999smj or VStar650CL

Great information. I'm still a bit curious on how they would make a column shift program convert into a floor shift routine, and the details surrounding it, but this is for those 3rd party gurus to capture and figure out in the firmware possibilities.

Thanks again.

Re: New R51 "C" Head Lights found 2005-2008

Oh I agree. There are alot of reasonable products that perform excellent.

The biggest issue are the dum-dums putting LED in reflector headlamps causing Boeing 747 landings as you approach them on the highway.

Re: VK Swap (Column shift vs Floor Shift) calling smj999smj or VStar650CL

Thank you for the quick reply. So... If one would get a donor 16-19 Titan for a project, complete engine and transmission... As it is a column shift only, would there be any programming available to make it work with a floor shift on an R51 at all? There are some benefits of going the Titan route, a...

VK Swap (Column shift vs Floor Shift) calling smj999smj or VStar650CL

Not that I am considering it, but it's a question in the sense, that I do not understand the differences. Calling smj999smj or VStar650CL, but anyone who knows the technical aspect or reasons, it would be appreciated. For the 2004-2015 Titan, there is some confirmed information that you can not inst...

Re: New R51 "C" Head Lights found 2005-2008

The lights are LED (C frame / sequential, etc). The headlights comes standard as halogen. I would imagine that has everything to do with being road legal, and making them compliant in the USA/Canada. As far as I know, there are no road legal LED headlights (low or high beam) that are being sold for ...
