Yesterday i met with a guy who owns a pathfinder R50 2005 with turbo installed. His name is abu saif and well know among the r50 group. He claimed to have 342Hp on his hood. But his machine really roared like a beast.
Hi,

@syedyaseer i would suggest better go for 2004-2005 models as 2003 and 2002 models has maf sensor problems which u will be needed to replace in 2-3 advance level drives. So i would suggest to try 2004 and 2005 models which doesn't has this problem.
So here comes my update so far -
1. Checked engine -ripped off as heard some minor sounds from engine and it was found exhaust side camshaft was broken- replaced it and overhauled engine and now it works fine
2. Replaced all fluids and after replacing the steering pump doesn't feel well with new oil. Bought another pump - waiting the garage to replace it.
( one advantage i found with pathfinder R50 is that all parts are easily available and of low cost )
3.Front suspension damaged and need to be replaced - replaced with heavy duty CR7 suspension and it works fine
4.Running on stock coils
its so fun to drive a manual here it brings back me nostalgia of driving car back home ( in India). 😍
My Honda Accord is also drinking few amount of oil,that was what the garage guy told me last time. Now i am checking oil weekly once for the reduction. Hasn’t found reduction yet. Waiting for the sign.
