Alright sorry for taking so long to do this but I've just been busy and what not. So my truck is nothing great and it's still got some transmission problems but that seems to have gotten better. Mostly everything I've done is cosmetic since there isn't much point in dropping a ton of money on a 4cyl that's 2WD with a weak tranny.

I don't have any before pictures but you all have seen one of these stock I'm sure haha

I know a lot of you hate decals but these are companies that I support and they hook me up, and Island Style is my creation so....deal with it! :lol:

Smoked the turn signals and removed the chrome that started to peel off the grill and painted that matte black and did satin black on the badge

Removed my door badges (thanks to PeeWee for advice on doing that) and blacked those out and reapplied them.

Went through all the trouble of finding a slim toolbox that wasn't fullsize and ended up having to block it up so it didn't hit the wheel wells. I screwed a marine no ground CB whip to the block but still can't manage to get any signal on my transmitter? Anybody know anything on how to help? Oh and I replaced the tail lights 'cuz something fell and broke the right one so I got these and i smoked out my 3rd.

Sorry, I'm too lazy to clean my truck out and it's kind of a mess with all the wire at the moment but I'm still working on it. I have two switches to the left of the steering column, one turns off my back speakers that are amped and the sub, the other turns on my amped PA horn that is in the engine compartment.

I had to get a GPS 'cuz the speedometer is whack.

Custom boxes with vinyl, 2 Selenium 6" mids, one 10" Sony Marine sub in a ported box tuned to 33.75hz.

My PA

Well I plan on driving it 'til the tranny just dies then I'll just sell it for what it's worth and get a 1st gen CC long bed 4x4 (Did Nissan ever make any of those with a column shifter instead of a floor shifter?) Or if I could do it for cheap I'd swap the engine and get a new transmission once it dies.

No column shifters. And if you really like your truck you can easily pick up used KA and SRs, or if you just look around you can find some nice engine. Like there's a VQ56 for sale here for 1200, and thats ridiculously cheap.

Ha! I was going to ask you where you got the black door badges. Mine are looking a little rough, I may take them off tomorrow and repaint. I like the look of the smoked turn signals with the black grille. I peeled the rest of my chrome off a couple weeks ago and painted the grille black and was wondering how smoked signals would look with it. Nice location for your CB too lol I wonder where that idea came from...
