I have a 96 pathy SE and want to swap out the engine to a newer supercharged 3.0 Litre from a newer model frontier, pathy ect. Anyone ever heard of this?

The 96 has a 3.3L, not a 3.0L...and the same goes for the Supercharged VG engine; it's a 3.3L, as well, and was never put in the Pathfinder from the factory, only the 01-04 Frontier SC and 02-04 Xterra SC. You'll need the EGI harness and ECM to do this swap, along with the SC motor, obviously.
