Re: What is this squishy foam?

I noticed the same thing on mine when doing cambelt in weekend.

It is definitely some sort of foam put there for some reason I don't know why it's there but I thought it was something nasty happening at first too.

For both of us to have it guessing it's there from factory.

Re: What do I stand to gain?...

You will prob find that a surf will not be much bigger than a terrano for load capacity. a slightly bigger option than a surf would be a prado or a pajero as the cargo area has more height to them, may just need to get rid of the 3rd row of seats

Re: 1994 Pathfinder Build

alot of nissan ecus can have chips fitted and then tuned. talk to a local dyno tuner near you and they should be able to help you. alot of silvia and skyline guys get it done and can suit high horsepower - will be alot cheaper than an new ecu.
