So...is the Titan also getting a new chassis at the same time? If not, and the Titan's current V8 fits in the R51, then I can imagine an awefully cool motor swap opportunity... :wink:

I had Beige cloth, it was highly unwise, my rear end is regularly far too dirty for that :-P. My 2008 V8 is black /w red leather, love it, don't know WTF I was thinking before... :P

At least here in California, emissions related equipment have a longer warranty...but I'm not sure if that's just CA or Nissan wide.

Odds are good your pre-cat is crumbling and the debris is plugging up your main cat, this is not at all uncommon on the R51 (happened to me too with my V6). Both will need replacing and should be covered under warranty.

I moved from a Murano SE AWD to the Pathfinder...really depends on what you use it for. The Murano was *fantastic* for shipping 4 people around comfortably, nice tall AWD sport wagon of a machine. The Pathfinder has a more cramped back seat to make room for a 3rd row, but when you need the 3rd row y...

I did some googling on this recently for fun...I didn't realize that the VK56 motor is used for all sorts of Nissan racing, so if you want to go crazy there's LOTS out there. 6L stroker kit? 400, 500, and even 600HP Superchargers? Fully built race short blocks ready to drop in? Yup! :twisted: Some d...

No worries, the LE's AWD system is lockable, hence you can keep your 4x4 badges

One of the things I love about the Pathfinder when dealing with back-seat cargo is how wide the 2nd row doors will open, almost a full 90 degrees. Anyway...the radiator/transmission problem is well documented here, check it all out, that's the only real major concern. Nissan extended the warranty fo...
