Why would I choose this system?
For daily beach drivers and fishermen this Stainless system is perfect for the job (Same as the normal Vortex system only Stainless Steel).
Please note from 01/2011 onwards Nissan now sell the Auto Pathfinder with a DPF (engine kw rating from 120-126kw) or the new auto without a DPF 140kw. Please note these systems are not interchangeable and the front three parts are completely different.
How to tell if system has a DPF
1. Vin Numbers
- 126kw - 01/2011 onwards vin number starting with: MNT - Thai built Navara/Pathfinder has the DPF on it!
- 140kw - 01/2011 onwards vin number starting with: VFK - Spanish built DOES NOT HAVE THE DPF on it!
2. Look underneath the passenger side and see if it has a DPF (the two pictures below show what a DPF looks like)

3. Turn the iginition to auxiliary and there should be a DPF light in the dash.
