And it will be forever!
(if you have a gen 1 Xterra)

For all those who didn't do enough research to know that they were buying an SOHC motor that simply cannot get much faster without $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$:





for good measure:

my stickers add horsepower bitch

Mine too!

XTERRA Type R

I'm addin THIS to the roof!!!



HOOOZAAA!!! Got rice?

MGJ

rubberchicken, hahahhahahahah

ahahahhahahahaha

I like that green mustang in the background though

Nice pics Jeff!!!!!

Hey my truck it not slow....its special

So is mine, and that's why I love it

Mine's especially slow. :p

Can't wait to upgrade from my '00 but it'll be a couple of years probably since we just bought the wife a new Murano.

brad cook

Type R????

Your lame..I have the GT-R edition..

Hi far do you think they fly that thing...i wonder if the gas tank will only allow for domestic flights?

bring on that big, oversized, hunk of shit gen 2, and I'll race ya. got a suprise that comes in a big blue bottle installed yesterday. only put up 50 but it lights the tires just fine. just got to figure out how to get the check engine light to stay off when i hit the little red "go go" button.

Good luck with that

indeed, take pictures of the power plant when you break it

Look guys, you don't apparently get it. I've done alot with Nitrous before, including some turbo applications and ONE SC Xterra. A small shot fogged into the air intake isn't going to do much damage. These 3.3L's are stout little power plants. They can take a ton of abuse and come back screaming for more. A small shot is like a kick in the pants compared to the 150 shot on the SC that I did. I also installed alot of safety gear to keep it from being engaged too early. The stupid check engine light is from the O2 sensor recognizing a rich condition when I initially hit the button, not a knock sensor going haywire. I also previously overhauled the trans and installed a shift kit to improve the slush shift they have stock. The truck barks the tires through hard throttle, and will light them for 60ft or so on the spray. I AM considering a rear end upgrade for that joke of a rear gear that Nissan uses. I want to upgrade to a Ford 9" housing with Moser axles. Then, if I can locate one, I want to do a 3.3L turbo build. I've got a twin turbo setup off of an old 300Z that I want to experiment with. I think with the SC pistons installed and about 12-15lbs of boost, I could make about 400hp with the right parts.

Not knocking you...just wishing you "Good luck with that "

A joke of a rear???

So a 9.25" R&P with bulletproof axles is a joke?

Perhaps you're the one who doesn't get it.

....

I don't care if you get 1000hp out of that motor (it's been done to VG series motors). It doesn't change the fact that a you're driving a 5000# truck.

There's rice, and then there's MINUTE RICE.
Just kidding. I remember those days... we used to use cars, though. They were so much lighter; even the ones from Detroit. It'll just be a matter of time until somebody tries it in a "2nd gen piece of shit." It won't be me though. That thing goes plenty fast in 4lo. Edit: Come to think of it, I really wish that I could get it to go slower, sometimes.

whoa there Jeff W, I just don't like the factory rear for the X, don't get all bent. I like the 9" Ford because of versatility, and ease of ratio change. I'm trying to get more bang for the buck here, not start a war over rear axle. My point was, that the parts are more available for the 9" than the X's factory unit. I'm cleaning one up right now for mine so gear swaps are easier and more readily available. besides, what is YOUR definition of "bulletproof" anyway. I got a nodular chunk, 35 spline Moser 4x4 Axles and a reinforced 9" narrowed "big bearing" housing. Also the Detroit Locker is on the way.

So, let me do the math here.....

180hp stocker
50hp shot o' the gas
-----
230hp total, at the crank......

OK, say you've got exhaust, intake, headers and such..that would be what(?), another 25-30ponies?

That's still 260hp max.

And what kind of torque are you putting down?

Dyno sheet please!

If you wanna put it up against my 265hp and 287ftLbs of torque, then I'm your huckleberry. I'll even keep my stock rubber on, stock intake and my automatic. Hell, I'll even drink a Pepsi while doing it.

There's no replacement for displacement. 4.0 stock > 3.3 w/NOS

And yeah, my Fronty walks away from my own S/C 3.3, with my wife driving the Fronty!

This is quite amausing.

ok, cyclemut, you win. I'll just have to grab my 475hp/487lbft(dynoed)302 powered Ford F150 "toy" and then we CAN talk numbers. The X is better on gas, but the Ford is just a fun ride. I don't want to drag race all over town. I put on the gas for a shock factor. If you did want to run for pinks, however, I could up the ante with more of the fun stuff for a quicker run. I may lose the engine in the process, but I would end up with a better and lower mileage truck when i'm done. Besides, I don't really like the idea of racing for pinks. I'd just assume we keep our vehicles where they are, and just go throw back a few and laugh about it anyway.

So you'll race someone with a stock 4.0 Frontier with your modified 5.0 F150. Yeah, that's a fair race. Just do your mods and show us what you got.

This is rediculous. I cannot believe you fellas are talknig about racing an Xterra.

To bad the manifolds will not mount. You would have to use the manifolds from a VG30ET and that set-up is single turbo. The VG30DETT manifolds will not work as the VG30DETT is a COMPLETELY different motor. The VG33E is just a stroked VG30E/T. Alot of Z31 300ZX guys use the VG33E for the extra 10% displacement as it is basically a direct bolt-in.

Hey guys its a 4X4.Don't forget that. But its a good read ,carry on.

I didn't know about the manifolds, mabye I can fab up a set with some steel i've got laying around. thanks for the info.

Or you can use the manifolds from a 84-89 Z31 300ZX Turbo...84-87 preferably since in those years the Z31 used a T3 instead of the undersized T25 that came on the 88 and 89 model years.

I'll have my grandma race her Pride Victory scooter http://www.spinlife.com/critpath/spec.cfm?productID=415
against your Ford for PINKS (if by chance the Ford doesnt stall and you win I will have to push her all over town in the wheelchair)
Her scooter is named Victory so that should boost the Horsepower and almost guarantee a win.

Boys, boys, boys! There is one reason for driving slow. The roadhead lasts longer! Now, if anyone needs me I'm going out for a drive in my 1st gen with the gf.

I have a gen 2 x and I must say its fast, but why are we comparing apples to oranges here fellas? ford 5.0 V8 vs. nissan 4.0 V6 um that right there says it....2 more cylinders....not a fair race but once i see some numbers on the ford I cant make a call on who will be quicker. I personally have driven some very fast cars, my father was a mechanic for over 35 years, and owns a few quick ones himself including a toyota supra twin turbo, btw if you wanna race your 5.0 ford V8 aginst a V6 toyota supra with over 900 ponies(got the dyno sheet to prove it) then bring it... My father and grand father worked for ford....noticed I said worked, thats because FORD= fix or repair daily, hence why you said that you would win in your truck but probibly blow the motor doing so......just quoting you.....have faith in the impoted V6's they are somthing to brag about

just to prove it
oh yea and the dyno was without the 150 shot of nitrous......just for this situations where you might need it.....those rare situations that is

V6 Supra? Over 900HP?

Yet the pics you provided show a 2JZ Supra (i6) making 830HP. I'm a bit confused.

Well, that's an inline 6, not a V6. So if you're going to rip off someone else's ride, at least get it straight.

Oh, by the way, I sent Justin (you know, the owner of that sweet, sweet ride) a little email, letting him know his car was claimed by someone else...

I'll go ahead and quote you, so a deletion won't be so easy.

Oh, and you've been trolled.

Daaaaaaaaaaang . . .

I thought I've seen those pics/dyno sheet around before.

Good kill Cyclemut.

yo I know the guy who owns it, I went to school with him Justin Infurno, represent AEPi, (old Frat bro) and that is a sweet ride, still remember when he took me out on 95 for a lil ride int and lit up the wheels , although he now has a viper, yellow infact..Like i said i dont know if its still in his hands because he now has a viper

I smell something funny here...
Xterragreen and you both have the same color X, both S models and both are 4x2.

Now xterragreen's changing all of his settings, etc..

Interesting.... yo.

And for the record, there's a lot of things you don't know about a lot of people. Who I know, and who knows me, would suprise a lot of folks. Big dog, porch... get the picture?

I'll race you all. The Spec V can nevar lose

To a 5000 lb suv

um yea its odd that two people have the same truck(wtf)...... I live in florida

Busted!

Umm....yeah......

Let's line it out in black and white for you "two".

Xterragreen happens to post a pic of some sweet ride out of the blue, while only making a total of 3 posts. Then you, Richard (can I call you Dick?) happen to come out of the blue, making (at the time) only 1 post, claiming to know the fella that actually owns the vehicle.

Yes, Dick, you both have the same vehicle, same color, same model.....but claim to be from different areas. Umm.....yeah.......

Oh, and xterragreen has since changed his profile from Boston, to Ohio. Now, I'm thinking that it's the Boston that I know, which isn't in Ohio. 'Cause the Boston in Ohio is actually New Boston, population 2,340 kind, gentle folk. Not some asshat that claims that his Dad owns someone else's ride!

And I quote...

So, (if there is indeed two of you) gentlemen, consider it brought, cooked on your backside, eaten and then shit upon your lawn.

Don't even think of trying to explain your way out of it, Dick, 'cause you caint!

*Grabs the popcorn*

I'm betting on Cyclemut here...

But carry on manly men - entertaining reading...

Bonus points to Cyclemut for going into big brother mode and quoting chapter and verse on this guy/these dudes -- but is he a really a Nissan tech -- or is he really Cyclemut PI (insert theme music here)...
