Goodbye Mazda Hello Nissan
So we turned in the ole Mazda and got an '02 Nissan Xterra 3.3L (no supercharged )
Anywho I really like it and like how it drives. Getting used to the color and its growing on me.

Im allowed to do some mods so woo hoo. Already have Silverstar Ultras in. Window visors ordered from work.
Soon to come: Exhaust set-up, possibly and intake, tint the front 2 windows, and more
The engine sounds real nice in the higher RPM's So much better than the little Mazda engine. lol

Heres a few pics I snapped in my backyard lol
comments are welcome.






Go OSU

i guess the drop in gas prices made you feel less conscious about driving an SUV.
not a fan of xterras, or nissan for that matter. 300zx TT excluded. have fun though.

1) I wasn't shitting
2) I feel a certain way about people driving gas guzzlers and how it reflects on pump prices. Then they're the first to complain. If this summer wasn't enough proof, I dont know what is.
3) it's not HIS car, it's his dads car
4) My dislike of Nissan is just that, I dislike that brand, what they had/have to offer and do not see myself owning a Nissan product.

Yea. Exhaust is iffy. Tinting the front two windows for sure,intake is iffy. ordered the window visors, maybe upgrade the sound system. its not very impressive., definitely getting some sort of brush guard (suggestions?)

yes the O is OSU lol although Im quite sure that you were being sarcastic lol

thanks for all the comments.

we have these 2.5" lift kits at work for like $699. Pretty pricey. I get %20 off but still. 2.5" isnt much but I dont need an offroader lol

oh yea and dicorp its not too too bad on gas. If this tank of gas keeps going the way its going ill be getting ~16 MPG City. And as much as it is not my car it is my car. My dad said he wanted to meet me halfway about getting a car so he would stop hearing about Acuras lmao. And he wanted a mid-sized SUV because of insurance prices and my driving history. THe drop in gas prices had nothing to do with this decision. We looked at a 4cyl '05 tiburon with 26K on it but he "doesnt want me in a tiburon" plus insurance prices would sky rocket.

alright this post is getting too long


again thanks for all comments.

and Ill change my sig haha

well if so that would be great. I have read (forums ) that the knock sensor code is not anything big if its not the SC model. and a guy on the forums is checking at his shop tomorrow about the other code.

Ill look at the paperwork tomorrow when I get the chance

gotta get caught up on the Calc homework

Calc FTMFL

he wanted me in something bigger. due to my bad driving record. falling asleep and what not. The insurance in the mazda was outrageous. a CL would be way higher than that.

And zero that a late night to that lol

i got home at 1:30 last night. lmao. then went to bed.

dude! never thought of that. that would be sweet. haha. do you know of good places to? theres this place like 2 miles from me and its like a huge cliff and at the bottom all of these other hills and shiz. and over a little there is like almost a 360 of cliffs. looks like a funnel with literally a 30 degree slope. its scary. you will never catch me going down that. Its like 50 feet deep. its insane haha. ill take pics when its not too muddy. I went there today, and yesterday.

mod list:
new front bumper
skid plates
and what the nissan forums call the PMA (poor mans lift lol)

Gives you about 1.5" inches of lift.
