I got 2 questions. 1. When you did the body lift how did you extend the steering shaft? 2. How hard was the vg33 switch? (like what did you have to do for the switch?)
i was planning on doing almost that exact same exhaust setup to my '95 pathfinder. same engine, so how does it sound? does it add a nice roar? the vid didnt catch it quite. the straight pipe looks sick, just as i imagined hah.

hey, do you know if there's one of those custom k&n performance filter kits that fits this car? the cone-shaped type. I'd really like to get rid of that one-way nissan box and go with one of those setups
@Vacmasterthegreat As far as I know of, No. Jim Wolf Technology sells a cone filter though which is very good. You could try that. Most people just build their own, "cold air" intake on these.
@suzuki230 yeah, I just built my own today. I found the intake assembly my dad had from his first blower on his marauder. All I did was take the old air box out and put a piece of insulation around the pathy intake hose, and the filter fit snuggly. Do you know what the sensor attached to the air filter housing is? should I bother finding a way to reattach it?
@Vacmasterthegreat Oh very nice! You should make a video of it. Uh do you the MAF? It's kinda important. I don't think the pathy will like running to good without it.
@suzuki230 I thought it was the MAF. I don't know though because it drives better than it did before. idled a little low for a second today, but with that air filter it has more power. I am going to see if I can fit the pathy sensor on the new air filter, wether it's the MAF or not:)!
@Vacmasterthegreat Haha well that's great to hear it's running better without it. This could be an interesting test. You could see how much faster the acceleration is and like mpg's. What was it idling at?
@suzuki230 oh acceleration is deffinitely improved. it was horrible before until I passed 3rd gear. I seem to get 14mpg. but I've only put 50 miles on it and I'm guessing. it seems to normally idle at 900, and for a second it sat at about 450. I just really hope I can find a way to pick up a couple more mpg's. I'll bet if I can find someone to flash the computer I'll get good milage and better performance
@Vacmasterthegreat Hmm 14 mpg's isn't bad at all. yeah 900 is right where it should be at. You can do headers, exhaust, plugs to squeeze out a few more. By flash you mean upgrade the ecu?
@suzuki230 well, with our other cars, the guy that built the engines hooked his laptop up to the computer and changed all the settings to make the car run better. They called it flashing the computer. He was able to watch and change the air/fuel mixture, adjust idle rpm and change the shift points(automatic). It was quite interesting how he took our mustang that never ran right and had it purring in 2 minutes
@Vacmasterthegreat oh.. you mean NISTUNE. Look it up on google and it's for the VG30E. I haven't heard of anyone doing it yet to the pathfinders but they do it a lot with the 240's 280's and 300z's.
I got one just like this running for $800. It is going to be my first car. What lift do you need to clear those 33's? Thanks man. I will put vids up of mine once i get my tires and wheels.
@TheZac258 I have a 3 inch body lift on it right now with the t- bars cranked. I will be putting a 3 inch suspension lift on it this summer to help. Sweet, let me know when you get the vids.
I just bought a 93. Horn doesn't work and I had a problem with the stock fog lights, and then I fixed it, and then in the same day they stoped working. Also missing the key chime thing that goes off when a door is open and the key is in the ignition. Are there relays/fuses for these hidden somewhere else besides the fuse box? I know there is a horn relay under the hood, but it's fine.
Hey I noticed you kept the serpentine belt from the 33. I just bought a vg33 for my 90 Pathy and I was trying to decide whether I was going to keep my 3 liter crankshaft, or machine my 3 liter pulley to fit the 33 crank. (I don't yet know what the difference is). But if keeping the serpentine belt is an option, that would be better. Solves the oil filter issue too. Does your power steering work ?
Why does it make so much whirring noise under the hood? I've noticed it in your other videos as well. Maybe your fan clutch is fried? I have 1995 pathy btw.
Sik ride man, ditch that air box and go with a cone man it`ll breath better. is that a body or suspension lift? See that thing in the mud then post it!!!
@DezertRacer7103 hey thanks, yeah i have thought about the cone but, i do too much off roading that i dont want to suck up anymore water. I have a 3inch body lift on. just check my other videos, pretty sure one of them has some mud somewhere in them ;)
@suzuki230 Im in the dirt alot bro....trust me. I was born and raised in orlando florida...did the same thing there. You`ll be safe. just dont cut fenders or fender wells and your stylin
@thecardrawer10 essentialy yeah. it just depends what you want to do. any motor from a 1990-1995 pathfinder will work just fine. or you could do the vg33 swap like me. eiher way, go nissan.
@KSIFLYBOY hmm.. I'm on a 3 inch body lift with just the 33inch superswampers and the t bars cranked.. I dont have a suspension lift yet.. :( so yours is more than likely taller than mine.
Very Very Nice.. I have a 92 XE 2WD model.. would it be easy to install the 4x4 system on it? I want to put mine somewhat like yours.. as in looks. Thanks.
I have an 89 pathfinder, Is the it pretty simple doing the swap? all the mounts fit correctly or do you need to fabricate new ones? I love the car but the engine has 222XXX miles on it so I'm thinking about doing a swap to a newer hopefully better engine
@Hoolalaha yeah over all it was an easy swap but for you it would be harder.. since yours is an 89 the ecus are different because you have VG30i for a carburated motor. so you would have to swap the ecus.. but it might work. I used the same motor mounts on the old engine.
@4xdanx4 Its was not bad. No instructions but simple. I had to move the powersteering fluid resivior and extend the steering linkage and extend the gas line from the tank to where you put gas in. Nothing to hard at all.
can i swap a 08 path finder and how much it will be ?help me man man how much do you pay for the wheels noce work ! from el slavador central america !
Hey thanks man, hmm you would be much better off buy an 08 pathfinder than swapping the engine, for the swap tires and random parts, a little over 3000$
Cool video, nice job with the swap. I'm seriously thinking about doing this swap to my 94 pathy. Is the power increase very noticeable? Also is the a/c going to be a problem? Thx.
thanks man! oh yeah the power is amazing! considering it had 234000 on the oringional one so it made a huge difference. yeah as for the ac thats a no go.. unless you do some custom piping for it.. I was going to put it back in but I decided I can live without ac :)
