Usually emissions parts have a much longer warranty period than the regular warranty...usually at least 5yr/60k....if not more so you should be fine

ya..they have an 80k warranty. i called nissan to get an apt to check my SRS light. they told me a week. so i take it elsewhere to get it checked and they tell me its both cats. i check around and find they are one piece with the manifold. so i go down to nissan with 82,xxx miles and they tell me warranty ended at 80k

so now i have been calling nissan north america to see if they will help me out but they dont return calls...it doesnt look good.

Re: whats next?

Your car weighs 3483 lbs

Mine weighs 2555 lbs.

You dynoed at 303WHP (.086HP per lb)

I'll be at 220WHP (.086HP per lb)

Yours is cute too. Unfortunately, I get better gas mileage, mine is paid off, and it's not a Ford.

not cute....badass....yes, probably almost twice what mine gets ( i really wanted to get the environmental plate, but the wife nixed that idea), by 10/09 both the Roush and Pathfinder will be paid off so wont be long, and you say Ford like it's a bad thing

hahahaah....that's fn-funny...yeah you got me there. But hey I finally have the rest of my suspension parts on the way so at least that will be done....I should have rims by years end...these tires just wont die...seriously 27k on stock tires on a 300+hp car...are you freakin kidding me...i never got more than 20k on the stock tires either of my vics had....so when the tires are done then I'll drop on a set of 18x9.5 GT500 rims.....until then...

That is a lot of miles...I thought the wife was doing pretty good with 50k on her 05 Pathfinder....but that is a huge amount of miles...86k...wow....

KR rims are probably out of the question for a few reasons....
1) Word is that all KR parts are going to be sold only for replacement of parts from KR vehicles...aka you have to have a KR first to get any KR part...especially body/wheels, etc
2) I'm not a big fan of 20's...I like the look of 18's better and I like having some sidewall...launching requires sidewall...
3) I really like the standard GT500 wheels...except in chrome so I'll probably get the aftermarket GT500 18x9.5 in chrome...I can get a set for around $700..


Oh and I finally got the shocks and springs on...pictures and a story to come when I get more than 30 seconds of free time....

Re: whats next?

It spins through second and chips third. It will be impossible to not get a ticket in this thing. The best part is that in 5th gear at 65 it's already starting to spool so now I can actually PASS people!
