I love me some Nomad! How about a build thread in the off topic section. Great looking car so far!

anyone know the size of transmission fluid hose ? trying to get an adapter so I can install a temp gauge sensor. thanks.

Trailers:
Welp, first it was Xterra, and converted boat trailer. Blue Kodiak quad. Then traded in Xterra for Pathie, then traded converted boat trailer for a lightweight aluminum trailer, of which numerous "vibration" posts exist, but only for my beloved Pathfinder, then I bought a new Quad, which barely fit on the alum trailer, then I snorkeled the exhaust, which meant it wouldnt fit, unless I was by myself...

So, finally, its '08 Pathie, '08 Brute Force 750.. 04 Nighthawk 6 x 12

Amen.

NOOB ALERT! LOL. Great forum first off. I practically LIVE on 300ZXclub.com and love how places like this give so much info and insight!

So I've noticed the majority of the Pathfinders towing large loads are the 4x4 offroad ones. My wife's '06 SE isn't the offroad package and I need to haul/tow my 300Z. I'd be using a trailor from a local Uhaul store and going from LA to GA. Just wondering if I'll be ok? Thanks in advance and I apologize if this is the wrong section to post in.

I towed this for my boss the other day.



The end results were yummy.

Should be fine as long as its not more than 6000lbs and 500lbs on the tounge. This should help http://thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=65&start=0

Thank you! I had came across the thread you linked but still wasn't 100% sure. This will be a 1 time deal too. LOL, this will be the 4th motor in 6 years for my Z. The Z forum I'm on has a guy who is GIVING me his motor out of his DD 300Z! I just have to get it to GA!

As far as I know the OR package keeps the same gear ratios right? Should have less power with the same gears and taller tires... and shouldn't tow any better at all then standard.

Well I'd try to get one that does unless its a car dolly, but if the entire car is on the trailer i'd want some kind of brakes on the trailer. Surge brakes would save you from adding a brake controler for electric brakes.

Well it looks like the trailer does not have brakes. :/ I'll just hope for the best and expect the worse I guess.

It says on the u haul website that it has "Automatic hydraulic surge brake" and shows a pic of that exact trailer. Should be good!

Great! Leaving in 45 minutes! Thanks for all the help guys!!!!



EDIT: Well I made it to GA. without any problems. It hauled the Z just fine! Thanks again!! Love the Pathy!
