Hello all. New to the forum, but not to Nissan's.

I own a modified 2000 Xterra that sees duty on the trails for fun and I put it to work on the local Rally West Racing circuit saving Rally Cars and their drivers from precarious positions. in fact we have a few Nissan's in the local races.

Looking forward to taking an active part in the NICO world.

Cheers!

Just found a pic from last summer. My local Nissan (and Import) 4x4 Club has one massive weekend event every August. We call it the Import Jamboree. It's camping, trails, driving skills activities...and of course good friends. Ever driven a pylon course blindfolded while taking directions from the passenger? dam hard in a 4x4 with a wide turning radius!

Anyway here's my rig...Don't have many from the latest rally though.This coming November will have some good stuff I'm sure!

Thanks for the thumbs up Eikon.

I run Rancho's complete 2.5" lift kit with the RS9000X Air Control shock system. The air gauges ( that monitor system pressure) are in an A-Pillar Pod from Automotive Customizers.

The TJM Winch bumper came from 4x4 Connection in Wisconsin. TJM is the only other Aussie Made Bumper on the market aside from ARB. Inside that lives a Ramsey Patriot 9500 with Key Fob control ( 50' wireless range baby! ). The steering was seriously beefed up with Calmini's complete steering package. Skid plates and sliders built by myself, fellow fabricators and Skid Row keep the vulnerable bits fully armoured.

Next on my wish list is SLR's Header package combined with either the Borla or Gibson's exhaust system. And hopefully I will have enough warm weather left to install the onboard air I so desparately desire.

I know I have other pics, but my Nissan comrades have some sick rigs too.How about a Pathfinder running 35's and a fully coiled suspension with more flex than a circus performer? I'll keep the site posted on the 4x4 stuff as I get it.

Very nice Xterra. I never figured out how Xterras look so good in yellow.

BB, that thing is officially proclaimed BAD AS HELL.

Can't wait to see more pics, and we'd LOVE to have some help here in the Xterra / Pickup forums.

Let us know if there's anything we can do for you.
