I've been reading on this sight for about 3 weeks now researching the xterra. Due to everyones enthusiasm, I have just recently bought a 2002 Xterra XC-SC. The only thing that I'm dissappointed about is the fact that it's only 2wd. The only reason that I'm settling for this is because this is the first sc that I've found in my area at a dealership that I could get financed at. Being a first time buyer and everything makes it hard to get a resonable rate. After a year, I'm going to trade it in for a 4x4, so for now, I can't be getting to crazy. :rolleyes:

I'm only going to do a few mods to open it up a little. Your basic intake, exhaust, and 2.3" pulley. I haven't read anything about the reliability of the pulley yet, so I still need to research that before I make any moves on it. I might possibly get headers also, but I haven't decided yet.

Thanks again for all the information on the site!
