Hey everyone!

My name's Anthony and I just picked up a 2003 Xterra SE - 4WD Supercharged. After 2 weeks of dealership scams to Craigslist flakes, I finally found the perfect Xterra with only 66k original miles on it. I'm a beginner, and after moving to Orange County from Santa Clarita, I figured it was time to be more active.

I'm really excited to learn even more about this car and gain inspiration from you guys.

All suggestions or tips are welcome.

Photos: I'll post more photos soon! I just took her to Holy Jim in Trabuco yesterday for feel it out.

Very nice, I also have an SC. Best tip i can give you, Check the codes on it (obdII) for Knock sensor faults. The Knock sensors fail on our trucks but they dont trigger a Ck Eng light. WHat it will do though is retard your boost. It happened to me when i first bought mine. I though it was running fine, checked faults sure enough, KNock sensor fault. ficked the knock sensor and boom, way more power. Enjoy and let me know if you ever need anything..
