Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Is the 3l in the utes the same as the one in the wagons? I'm presuming that since they didn't come with them until they stopped the 4.2 that these are from after Nissan did whatever it did to fix the issues with the zd30

I need to do something similar to my pathy, what sort of relay would be used for this application.

It seems old pathy's had the power running through the arm on the steering wheel, and it tends to short out a lot, up to my third arm :x
Is there a 'standard' relay to be used, or can i just visit ...

Yeah, i'm just looking at prices for worst case scenario, won't buy anything till it gets pulled apart and i check out the aqctual damage.

Is there much difference between a gu and a gq engine, mine is a 2002 gu ute, non intercooled turbo diesel

Sooooo..... would anyone happen to have an electronic copy of the TD42T workshop manual handy

Oops i forgot to say mine is a factory turbo'd one.

Yeah i didn't think all the mucking around with it would be worth the effort, might have a look at second hand engines, and rebuild this one when i can afford it (it sucks when :bad-words: happens all at once).


As i said with the kits, some come ...

I shall definately be getting a snorkel fitted when its rebuilt, but i have to get it rebuilt first.

Another question on the TD42, I have a younger BIL that is into the drift scene and he is "egging" me on to bore it out and such, figures while I'm pulling the engine apart and all that i may as ...

I wish I had your luck, mine stopped dead :?
Somehow managed to get enough water into the intake to stop it dead
although the water I was in was less than a foot deep, it barely made it up to my hubs, I'm guessing I was just unlucky :cry:
Had my mechanic look at it and see how bad it is, it no ...

Hi all,

Just looking for some info on fitting an OX 12k lb winch to the stock nissan patrol winch bar, its a GU 2002 model.

Do the stock nissan bars need a winch cradle/frame as per the TJM bars, or is it ok to fit the winch directly to the bar?

Having done a bit of research on it, the Warn ...

Hmm but with the small tyre, wouldn't that up the revs needed to sit on 100km/h and therefore increase the fuel consumption of the vehicle?

Hi All,

I have a 2002 GU ute, 4.2 turbo diesel.
Currenlty i am running with 33" mud tires and am travelling approx 130km a day,With tht 33's the engine is usually sitting around 2200 rpm

My question is, would a set of 33" road tyres or 35" road tyres be more efficient.

Great event!!!

thats the vehicle pictured above

I thought his was silver over red, not silver over black?

i looked at doing this myself to a 90 pathy, but ended up getting a patrol.

If your looking for a diff housing, you could look up vsickspathy, he did a sas on his using a mk/mq front housing, apparently it has the same WMS-WMS as the pathy rear.

Thanks for the replies guys,

Its going in a 2002 GU Ute, might have to hunt throughthe local electrical/car goods stores. Don't have a credit card for buying online stuff >.<

Its to be mainly used in convoy situations and when out wheeling etc

i think i might end up going with the Uniden UH015SX ...

Can Anyone recommend/offer advice on the ...

How does that +50 rule work, from what i've read of the NCOP i've come to the conlcusion that you could probably have any size tyre as long as the body of the vehicle is not raised by more than 150mm over standard.

Did anyone else come to that conclusion or did i read something wrong

Got a 90 model pathfinder.

definately needs more power, haven't managed to break anything on it yet, it still kicks over first start. the alternator is in a bad spot though, prone to filling with mud and gunk :(

After having it for a while now, i think that it is a fairly nice soft roader, its ...

umm shouldn't this be moved to ummmm say .... the Wanted section

I have the Wd21 pathfinder, i have fitted 31" tyres to mine using toyota rims.

They clear the guards just fine, the only close bit is towards the rear of the wheel arch when turning.


general rule of thumb for these vehicles is 3" sus + 3" body = 33" tyres

so in regards to this i'm assuming the hub is the wheel mounting surface etc

i suppose that actually makes some sense


thaks for that.

HI,

AFTER searching for the past hour, how do you measure the width of a diff housing, i have come across the term WMS-WMS many times now.

And i have no clue as to what it means.
I'm not actually measuring diffs at the moment, i'd just like to know so i have a basic understanding of what i'm ...

I'd say for him to talk to his accountant.

From what i recall R+D expenses can be claimed against your tax at a rate of 125% IIRC, so any costs incurred in R+D are a write off against his taxable income.

So coming from that point of view, free upgrades

Hi All,

I'm looking to find the electrical diagrams for a 1990 Nissan Pathfinder, mainly to do with the headlight(s) area.
I have come across a common pathifinder problem were the contacts in the arm have shorted because they draw too much through them.

I am looking at setting up a relay system so ...

yeah i've been in and seen my mechanic, he's more than happy for me to bring it in on the hoist and have a crack at it there.

tried from underneath, can't actually get onto it form the top, well you can but not with anything tha could provide leverage.

its really in a prick of a spot, you can't ...

Currently in a nissan pathfinder, the Z24 "twinspark" engine

Its starting to annoy me quite a lot with its refusal to relinquish its hold to the engine.

Hi all,

I'm having some isssues getting the rear bolt undone on an alternator.

The alternator in question is rooted and getting replaced, but i can't get the rear bolt undone, i've sprayed it with some WD40 and let it soak and then tried it, but to no avail.

Does anyone have any "Tips or Tricks ...

yeah, was going to say it looks like many a bull bar seen on the F-trucks

probably look at the calmini website, they have a few kits for the terrano's IIRC
