4X4 Safari Snorkel for the Nissan Pathfinder 04/2005 – 2009 VIN No: VSK 2.5L Diesel

Safari Part Number: SS730HFB

If you are planning a trip into grit, mud, or sudden downpours, your Nissan Pathfinder needs more than regular gear-it needs the Safari SS730HFB Snorkel. This kit is made for Pathfinders built between April 2005 and 2009 with the 2.5L diesel engine and VIN code VSK.

Once fitted, the snorkel feeds a big stream of cool, clean air straight to the stock airbox. That extra height lets your 4×4 plow through dusty tracks or shallow water while keeping grit, debris, and engine-hungry waves far away from the motor.

What really sets the SS730HFB apart is its clever air ram. The ramp funnels in fresh air but also spins off any water, so your engine keeps firing the moment the skies open or you tackle a creek crossing.

Made from cross-linked polyethylene that’s tough, UV-proof, and easy to clean, the body and ram shrug off rocks, sand, and brutal sunlight with ease. When you fit a Safari snorkel, you fit peace of mind for every kilometer on the trail.

Australian-Made Precision: Every part is designed, built, and tested right here in Australia by Safari Automotive to handle our toughest tracks.

Raised Air Intake: The taller intake keeps dust, mud, and rain far away from your engine’s lungs.

Enhanced Airflow: It pipes extra clean air to the 2.5L Diesel motor so your rig breathes easier and works harder.

Water-Resistant Ram Head: Safari’s unique ram cap shields incoming air from water, giving you drier, safer combustion.

Tough, UV-Stable Materials: Made from heavy-duty polyethylene that shrugs off sun, scratches, and rough treatment.

DIY-Friendly Installation Kit: You’ll get a model-specific guide, clear templates, and all the bolts you need for a stress-free fit.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this snorkel compatible with petrol models or other diesel engines?

No, the SS730HFB is designed only for the 2.5L diesel Pathfinders listed above.

Can I install the snorkel myself?

Yes, you absolutely can. The kit ships with easy-to-follow steps and a drill template that keeps everything lined up. Still, having a pro do the job usually means a cleaner look and piece of mind.

Will installing this snorkel improve my vehicle’s performance?

The snorkel itself won't add extra horsepower, but it lets your engine gulp cooler, cleaner air. That small gain pays off when you're crossing dusty roads or fording through light rain.
