89 Hardbody undergoing resto for my 13 year old son. Z24, auto, A/C 2wd.
Found a little rust and getting it ready for paint. I will use it for towing a
small boat till my son is old enough to drive.

Re: (Darky)

seang — 2009-11-09T12:21:00-08:00

^^ You got some cool ideas, man. The biggest thing with your truck, in my opinion, is that the platform isn't rusted out so you have a nice frame to work with.

Darky — 2009-11-08T20:18:22-08:00

New here. I have an 85 720. It started out as my wife's truck. It was her first car. She drove it for a while but wasn't the best on maintenance and it became somewhat unsafe. So it was taken off the road and she started driving a 96 Nissan truck. From there, the 85 went to her stepdad. He drove it for while, then her younger brother drove it, and her older brother got a hold of it. He lowered it, straight piped it (exhaust manifold to cat to straight pipe out the rear driver corner), and put air shocks in the rear to be able to lift it back up when carrying a load.
I plan on bringing it back to stock height, putting some 30" BFG ATs under it and finding a Pathfinder with a LSD to pull the rear axle from. I can't decide what I want to do for the engine though. Either rebuild the Z24 and eventually turbo it, swap in a KA24 with 240SX manifolds and computer, then turbo that, or I have a 99 Yukon 350 I can put in...only problem being, all I have is the engine. I would need to find the emissions equipment and a wrecked GM F-body to steal the stick shift and computer from...:D

PEZi720 — 2009-10-15T11:04:31-08:00

i have varying opinions on a/c

in a stock car i would not personally remove it... but here in CO i would only use it on the hottest summer days (90+) because at only 80 or so out it feels nice just to have the wind blowing in. now of course like i said i'd leave it in because girls don't like their hair being blown around and on those hot days i don't want to smell like nutsack... but A/C overall is not a necessity to me

one other thing about A/C... i hate it in turbo cars... it feels like the turbo lag is catastrophic and i'd only use it on the highway... off topic a little but still...

welcome to the trucks forums man!!!

I do... I bought a daily driver. Not another project car/truck.

I don't see why you wouldn't want A/C for a stock vehicle... Well, Unless you enjoy always smelling like sweaty nuts. That's just not for me though.

Figured its time to post in here now. I've been around the general chat/240sx forums for a wile now... But things have changed.

My 240sx is far from a daily driver, And I got sick of trying to fool my self into thinking it was.

Anyways, So I picked this up last weekend. Its a 1994 Nissan Hardbody 4x4 V6 XE. I'm the second owner, And its only got 111k on the clock. Frames good and the ac blows cold. The last owner also left me a stack of service records and the original window sticker.

Staggered Q's

Asuncion — 2009-09-26T12:55:02-08:00

Nice trucks. Has anyone considered a staggered tire setup. I bought the 18x8 titan wheels and in order to avoid buying 4x4 fenders, I wanted to put 225/50/18 front and 255/45/18 rear. Anyone try this, or am I just too cheap and should buy the fenders?

Hi everybody, I have a 97 HB KC xe 2WD that I just bought last week. I am looking to put big Nissan wheels like maybe the newer 18 or 20 inch Armada / Titan wheels. Any advice on the 20s is appreciated.

BTW I am a retard and clueless when it comes to custom work so DIY fabrication is a no-no for me.

well it depends on emissions in your area... either way do 2.25"

if you don't have emissions where you live go catless... otherwise get a magnaflow cat and do a custom catback

My 96
Bought this one new back in 96. It just turned 150 k miles. The truck has been great.
I started to smell antifreeze. The radiator top had a small crack in it. I replaced the
radiator and decided to spend some cash on the truck. New Hoses, Belts, Plugs,
Plug Wires, Dist Cap, Rotor, Motor Oil and Filter, Brake Fluid, PS fluid, Shocks,
(for a split second I thought about greasing the front wheel bearings) New Front
Wheel Bearings and Seals, Rear Gear Oil, Fuel Filter, Sony CD stereo, Polk Speakers,
added a trans oil cooler.

87Hardbody — 2009-06-11T11:10:36-08:00

Hey everyone my name is Abdi, I just decided to join this forum. I have a 1987 nissan hardbody that I bought about 6 years ago, she has 266,000 miles and still running pretty strong. Never let me down once.....

She doesnt burn that much oil and there is no smoke out of the tail-pipe. No leaks either. All the work I did since I owned her was; New breaks front and rear, new waterpump fan/clutch pully, New head-gasket and tune up. I really like this truck, I bought it from the original owner. Its got a fair amount of scratches here and there and one ding on the front right fender. Other than that, its original paint and stock everything.

I did a newer front end conversion and recently put some 16" crome rims on.

The pic makes it look better than it is, its a great truck but the interior is a mess. Needs a new bench seat and the dash is all cracked.

This is the only pic I can find so far, shes a great truck. I don't believe I will ever sell this car.

Hey guys,

My name's David -- I'm originally from Virginia but more recently have called Georgia, Kentucky, and (soon to be) Maryland home.

I got my 1996 Hardbody XE as a gift from my pastor, who was getting a new SUV. Though I've dropped several thousand into this thing over the years, I absolutely love it -- runs well, looks sharp, and is simple enough that I've been able to learn quite a bit about working-on vehicles.

And man am I glad to find this forum! I had no idea all the things the humble Hardbody could become!

DanielRBales — 2009-05-17T14:27:56-08:00

Well first off i love the forums and am glad to be a new part of them. Now i own a 1989 Nissan D21 that has been sitting for 3 years now (Army/Germany) so that being said i picked the truck up in 2003 for $200. Starter is going out the engine ticks pretty loud almost a diesel sound! seat is tore the brakes are completely shot (my fault) I drove this truck so hard jumping it downshifting and dropping the clutch to bark the tires but i drove this truck for 2 years and didn't have a single problem with it. So i have decided to fix it up to be the best truck ever!!!!
What i mean by that is the most indestructible truck in the world!!!!
So if possible i need ideas

Thanks Dan

hey figured id throw 2 cents in. im jer from western mass also. i picked up a 90 hardbody 2wd a few months ago and i have been messing with it since. i already swapped most of the interior out and changed the seats. i took most of the carpet out. i raised the front up 2" cuz the kid before me cranked the torsion bars down 3" so technically it is lowered and pretty much stripped. i stripped a truck in ny and got a lot of the exterior pieces i needed from that. i wanna kick a few ideas around about a possible motor swap either the dohc or sr20. let me know what you guys think!

Hey guise, my name is Josh. Just found this place while searching on Google for info on swapping Pathfinder seats into my D21 to get rid of that god-awful bench. This is my truck, '91 Hardbody. Got it this summer to use as a work truck, but now it's my daily since I'm currently laid off!

It's come a long way since I got it. When I bought it in August, it had a seriously ugly corrugated aluminum canopy, a ratty old KC lightbar, a 3" body lift, and tires that were just about bald. I took the canopy off the same day, as well as the light bar.

If you're wondering why the front end is so clean, it's because 2 days after I bought it, some woman pulled out in front of me while doing about 35, and I t-boned her, so pretty much the whole front end was replaced. Then shortly after that, a friend and I pulled the body lift off, pulled out the ****ty plastic bedliner, and I've been cleaning it up ever since.

I've got some plans for it, but nothing too extreme, since it's just my daily. I'm definitely swapping in Pathfinder seats now that I've seen it's possible, and maybe the dash, since mine has the fugly early squarish one, and I want to do an OEM center console also. I also want to do the later model grill and bumpers. Hope to pick up a lot of info and hopefully contribute some, too!

Hi Everyone,

Newbie here. I just picked up my first truck.
Found an old 1990 nissan 4X4 hardbody P/U.
I was looking for a 3.0 V6 4X4 because I both drive long distances everyday and I live in the country on a dirt road on top of a mountain.
After looking at my options I think this is exactly what I need.

She's not much to look at, but the engine seems sound with only 191,000 miles on it ------my friend has one right now with over 300,000!!

you'll probably be seeing me post with some questions soon!

just wanted to say 'Hi' first

darinz — 2008-11-27T00:35:16-08:00

I've been on NICO for a while as a great source of info for doing the VH45 turbo swap into my Patrol. I race it in winch challenges in New Zealand so it has a fairly lengthy list of mods.
VH45 intercooled and turboed, 375 rwhp, manual shift auto (RE40R3A), extended wheelbase to 104.5" (same as D21 Pathy), strengthened chassis (after bending one early this year), twin shocks and fox bumpstops, H233 diffs front and rear, ARB locker front and Factory loacker rear, 35x11.5/15 Simex Extreme Trekkers with Staun internal beadlocks, Warn 8274 winch with twin 7.8hp 24v motors, widened drum and custom freespool, holds 90m of 10mm dyneema, (about 300' of 3/8"). 12v for truck and 24v 70amp alternator and twin 25 plate 925 cca batteries just for winch. Sometimes I run twin 6hp (9.5xp) 12v motors with 24v through them. This is fast but not great for really heavy winching.
The list of future mods includes full coilover and bypass shock suspension and a retune. Currently the rev limit is set at 6000rpm and not using VVT. The plan is to increase revs and drop boost a little so that I have similar power but can run 98octane instead of avgas like I currently do.
Another thing being tossed around is to take the running gear out and drop it into my D21 Pathy I have lying around. A bit light smaller etc so would go pretty well with 550hp dropped into it.

engine bay

Rolling chassis

bit of air

what 550hp does to tyres and mud!

At speed

That's probably more than enough from me!!!!

What's up everyone. Been frequenting the Versa subforum since I got it back in Feb, and it'll be nice to meet even more members here at Nico.

Hope you're all ready for a short novel.

Wife and I made the decision to get a truck a while back. A big truck. A really, really big truck. Something with lots of interior room, 4x4, ample bed space, and a factory tow package giving enough towing capacity to make others jealous.

We were looking to take advantage of the model year end discounts and all the extra rebates and whatnot on a brand new '08. After test driving numerous trucks, we narrowed it down to the Dodge 1500 Big Horn Edition (had to settle for the Quad Cab, as all the Mega Cabs were already gobbled up) and the Nissan Titan SE (no worries about the Crew Cab, as it's seemingly just as large as the Mega Cab).

We drove the Ford and Chevy Crew Cabs, but were disappointed more than we thought we'd be. Poor wife was a Ford girl since that's all her parents had, and I'm rather glad she was completely let down by the big blue oval (loose door handles, center console trays that you could jiggle back and forth, the list of laughs go on and on.. and the $37K truck we drove had 28 miles on it...sad), as I really didn't want a Ford. The Chevy was nice, but the interior just seemed..... rather dated. The ride was too "squishy", for lack of a better term.

Our frustrations mounted when the local dealers were trying to stick us with a $500+/mo payment for 72 months. We'd have ended up paying over $36,000 after the loan term. No thanks and have a nice day.

That, and our preferred Nissan dealer went back on their word. They told us we could get an SE CC 4x4 (Timberline w/Almond bench seats, Popular Package, Tow Kit, High Utility Bed Package, Moonroof, and Floor Mats that'd been sitting at another dealer for a full year now... it's MSRP was $36,785) for wholesale pricing of $25,000 before trade-in rollover, taxes, title, licensing, etc etc. We come back 2 days later to finalize the numbers, and all of a sudden it's $28,025, we'd have to roll over $3,000 more from the trade in, plus everything else factored in for somewhere between $489-509/month for 72 months. That was about $60+ more per month than we were figuring since they were trying to stick us with the disgustingly high APR of around 10%. No love, especially since this would have been our 3rd brand new Nissan from them.

So, after another scour of Autotrader, I found what follows in St Louis, MO. Made the call, had them put a hold on it, and we hightailed it down there this past Monday evening to make the deal Tuesday morning.

My name is Jeff I drive a fairly stock 94' Hardbody single cab that I have absoutley fallen in love with. This truck has single handedly changed my mind about Nissans When I first got the vehicle when I was 16 I "knew" I was going to hate the little stick shift monster. Boy was I wrong, I intend to have this vehicle for many years to come and it will have many Nissan sibblings in the future.

Hey guys whats up I'm Cody and i live in Fall River WI (dont ask where it is lol)

I have a 91 d21 hardbody 2wd with a 2in body drop, 2 hydro pumps 6batts, some nice paint on it and this thing is just going to be my little project for the next year or so. I plan on finishing up the interior since there is no carpet from the body drop and touching things up in the bed area to clean it all up. Ill have some more pics later but this is all i have for now
