Is this what I would need Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com
and would the V8 Pathy front drive shafts work with this diff assuming it is the correct one? because from what I've read so far I want the heavy duty titan front diff that will match my rear gears since I have the Nismo package already and I'm assuming that the Pathy shafts would work,(I do not want to do the titan conversion), and a side question is, would I be able to use a V8 Pathy front diff and the shafts from that vehicle to accomplish this or are the gears different?

Link dose not work.

If you don't want to regear then you need a Front diff. with 3.36, front half shafts from a V8 Pathfinder, and 12 bolts to bolts the axles to the diff.

If you plan on regearing then you can get a M205 out of any Nissan SUV or Truck that has a V8.

Here is a link that shows the final drive ratio for all nissan products
Nissan Motor Company Final Drive Gear Ratio's

it also provides the rear diff being used, but does not tell us the front diff that is used

ok, here is the info from that link, no idea why it isnt working, I'm assuming this is brand new and the shipping is showing at $145, although I thought I read somewhere that Nissan redesigned the front diff so I'm not sure why the 2008-2009 is listed here, so would I still use the V8 Pathy half shafts with this? (Wow, those shafts are coming up at $420 EACH..)

yeah thats the diff you want if your going brand new. You can get one used for 400-600 and the titan axles for a hair over 200 each. it'll be extremely hard to find used pathfinder v8 axles

I picked up an 05 diff and 07 axles for $680 shipped.

I have seen people post this:

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market

and mention this:

I have used car-part to find a rim for another vehicle but that is about it. The good part is that they give you a pretty good list of places and a guess on prices. You just need to make sure and call the place and really quiz them on what they actually have so they don't send you the wrong thing if it has to be shipped.
