Presentation of my 2000 Nissan Terrano II

[barbas4runner]

Hello everyone,

after selling my 1991 4Runner, i bought this 2000 Nissan Terrano II.
I think it's not a known model in the US. Is that true?

Well, i decided to present my new rig.
Here are some pictures in the beginning:



And now, with the new roof rack:


So, what do you think?

I like it! What are the specs? We don't have them here in North America.

Does it have a transfer case? What is the driveline? Fully independent suspension? IFS?

 

[bushnut]

the Terrano in North America is called the Pathfinder, both WD21 and R50, only real difference was body styling and the availability of a diesel engine.
nice truck BTW

I knew some were. This is the same underneath as an R50 ? Looks a lot different.

Hi again everyone,

well, it's mostly like bushnut says: In Portugal and Europe we have the Pathfinder wd21, but it's called Terrano I.
There are 2 models: 3 doors and 5 doors using the same wheel base:

After this model, around 1994, appears this model called Nissan Terrano II, using exactly the same engine 2.7 turbo Diesel, 100 hp.
There are 2 models: 3 doors short wheel base and 5 doors long wheel base:


Then, around 1996/97 born the second generation of Terrano II, using the same engine, but with an inter-cooler. The front is the biggest modification.
There are also 2 models: 3 doors short wheel base and 5 doors long wheel base:


At last, but not least, around 2000, born the third generation of Terrano II: New body modifications and the same base engine 2.7 turbo Diesel, but with 125 hp.
There are also 2 models: 3 doors short wheel base and 5 doors long wheel base, like mine:



Now just for curiosity...
In the first and second generations of Terrano II, the Ford was selling exactly the same cars, just with different names and logos, of course:

The first generation of Ford Maverick:


And the second generation of Ford Maverick:



Well, I hope it's understandable!

Hi again everyone!

From the last time I post pictures here, my Nissan Terrano II have some "evolutions"...
I put some paint in the bumpers and some glow in the body.

So it have a better look now:



And here witn the new tires BF Goodrich:



And a Photoshop planning the new wheels' colour: BLACK!

That looks pretty neat! I like the idea of a small, economical 4x4. I'm guessing it has IFS in the front and a solid axle out back?

 

[barbas4runner]

Yes Allof75,

In Europe we have to think "small" e economical, because the fuel prices are very high...

And yes, the Terrano II is IFS in the front and solid axle in the back, but there are a few with solid axle in the front too.

And now, some pictures in the North Africa trip last year.

Enjoy:

Muito bom. Parabéns.

Nice MK3 Terrano you've got i've got a MK4 version which has a different front bumper & the revamped interior

Yes Allof75,

In Europe we have to think "small" e economical, because the fuel prices are very high...

And yes, the Terrano II is IFS in the front and solid axle in the back, but there are a few with solid axle in the front too.

Any Terrano II (R20) with a solid front axle will have had it custom fitted as Nissan never built the R20 that way & from what i've read up on the conversion you don't really gain much extra articulation than the standard IFS set up

 

[barbas4runner]

Yes sweety, you are right.

Now I post some pictures of the trunk storage I start to built:
