Re: Roof rack (tray/bucket): Thule or Yakima or something el

Does anyone have an opinion of what the best roof rack is for the 05 Path? Not a bike rack but the tray style. If you are talking about the cargo basket I have the Yakima Load Warrior with the extension... Also the locking brackets... I like the looks better than the Thule (and I sell Thule) :oops:...

Doesn't the Muffler on the gibson hang out? It looks like a giant canister from the pics I've seen looks like it might scrape if you go offroading. The exhaust hangs just slightly below the frame rails (1/2")... The sound is a lower growl at idle... It does make more noise at higher RPM but so...

HID High Intensity Discharge, also know as Xenon or Bi-Xenon (which is sort of a lie cause the high beams are still Halogen. Don't be fooled into thinking a bulb that says Xenon gas filled makes them HIDs (like in most luxury cars) HIDs are filled with Xenon Gas but unlike typical halogen bulbs tha...

Volume at idle, I'm sure its a bit louder but not really noticeable. During light to moderate acceleration there is a low growl and/or an air sucking noise, noticeable but not irritating. At WOT around 4k rpm's and up it gets really loud. I haven't tried leaving in a lower gear like 3rd or 4th and ...

Very good news. I'm doing the deal right now then. Did the kit come with fresh gaskets for the cat's or did you purchase new on your own? How is the sound/volume of the gibson? Thanks. I used new gaskets from Nissan... The kit did not have them... I also used exhaust sealant... The system has a low...

I talked with Gibson today and although their website does not show it the same part numbers are used for both the '05 and '06 Pathfinder... Hope this helps... The combo of the exhaust and the cold air intake really do make a big performance difference :twisted: ............ Triffid

Re: Educate me

What is the benefit of swapping out stock bulbs with PIAA bulbs? Do these give the blue look like my G35 has? It sounds like there is more to the light than just the bulb? That is what I am getting from reading these posts. So if you just switch the bulb do you get a partial effect? And last what a...

Triffid, Did you have Bose or regular? I have the non-Bose and would like to replace my speakers, but wonder if the non-Bose system would have enough power to drive better speakers. Right now my stereo is stock, with a Sirius unit wired in using a direct antenna adapter. Sound quality isn't awful, ...

Re: Bose Stereo

The Bose Stereo came with the 2006 Pathfinder LE. The Pathfinder is a great vehicle but the Stereo is much too boomy and the mid top end is not that crisp. Does anybody else find this the case? I have the base 2 notches below center and the treble and mid tone 1 notch above center to try to get a n...

Synthetic oil

I did my first oil/filter change at 1K with dino oil and then changed to Mobil 1 at 3750 miles... I change the oil and filter every 3750 miles...... Triffid

Intake/Exhaust

The intake/exhaust sound is only loader when you get on it at high RPM's... At idle it is not very much louder than stock just a little lower tone/growl... The exhaust tip is even with the bumper, but is adjustable...... Triffid

Re: Intakes...

Which ones are out there? I know K&N has one and there is another if I remember...but are there any others? What types of gains are expected from these... I have the aFe cold air intake & the Gibson exhaust on my '05... The two work well together... Nice sound and much better performance!.....
