Nissan titan performance?
Are there good bolt on parts for these trucks and good performance potential? The local dealer had a sign that said they were doing 8,000 off of nissan titans and i'm gonna go look at them today.

Look at all the threads/posts by this guy

Titan is playing catch up since the market change. Basic bolt 2wd will get you low 14's. Cams are another $2000 for another good drop in time, then $4500 or so for a trans. Performance is there at twice the price of chevy parts.
Great trucks when they came out, since then everyone has newer models. If you want something you can offroad then a titan is perfect(lots of long travel stuff and great coil over support). If I could get myself a work truck a titan would be it. Cheap, can tow, and built fairly well. Also I would say it will last longer than a chevy, nissan has really done a good job on the titans after the long production run. |

I believe the ford lightning does better then that I don't doubt that the nissan will last a long time, but i think argueing the longevitiy is kinda tough to say, we've seen that both can make trucks that last damn near forever. If anything i'd say its a marginal difference on each side |
even fully modded mine gets better than 13mpg.. it gets closer to 14-15 in town and 18-19 on the highway
bout the same as any fullsize 5,600 lb truck |
theres a guy i know here who races one. full exhaust, intake, tune, lsd, ran mid 13s at sar. not bad and he gets better than 13 on the highway. who said 13mpg?? i almost bought a titan but couldnt find a good deal on one and i found my truck as a repo so i pulled the trigger on my gmc. titans have good power for a stock truck but im glad i went gm bc they are cheaper to make fast. how much would the monthly payments be on a new chevy 6.2 if you got 10k for ur truck and put 9k down?

he has headers

My bro-n-law had a crew-cab 4wd and it got terrible mileage for a 1/2 ton truck IMO. He did average 14.6 with a mix of town and highway driving (prolly 70%city/30%highway).

I know this is old but still. Whining about just short of 15 mpg essentially city mileage....... Please...... it's a truck, not a Prius. Probably half of the 4.8 GM's on this board can't better that.
Seem like a really decent truck, have aftermarket support, and don't want mid 20's for a 6+ year old POS truck riddled with defects like the retard GM owners up here....... I tossed an airaid MXP4 4" intake, Magnaflow muffler, Nismo 160*F thermostat, and Hypertech 93 octane program. Truck has run 14.20s @ 95 in the 1/4. Ran at a better hooking track in the 1/8 with gutted secondary cats and ran 8.86 on a 1.98s 60'. |
Reviving the Dead!
Quickest Stock Cammed N/A Titan: 13.180@102.31. 12's N/A Stock Cams are coming. Couple more bolt on's and the right weather. |
There is a great aftermarket for the Titan. Intakes, exhaust, cams and tuners both custom and canned will get this truck into the 13's easy and a few in the 12's. Great forum here glad I joined. :)

Looks like things are changing in the Nissan world. Support is finally catching up.
|
The aftermarket for the Titan is way greater than the Tundra just cost more than a domestic unfortunately.

Knocked off a few high 13 second passes in my crew cab Titan with a few bolt-ons already.
