FS: VQ Turbo Manifolds and Turbo from VQ30DET

I bought a VQ30DET for my 240SX and I'm selling the exhaust manifolds and T-3 turbo that came with it. This turbo will produce around 300 whp. These manifolds will fit on any Maxima VQ. I'm asking $200 plus shipping OBO.

The turbo has a very small amount of shaft play, other than that it appears to be in working condition. The o2 sensor and cartridge fittings are not included.

i understand that these manifold will fit the vq 30 but will they properly position the turbo to clear the FWD tranny and other goodies, basically my question is would this be a direct bolt on to my 5th gen 3 liter or would i have to modify something to get them to fit right?

I'm 99% sure that they'll clear the tranny, but the crossover tube will hit the coolant tube at back of the engine. You could relocate the coolant tube or make a new crossover tube. I know a t4 turbo will fit if you remove one radiator fan. You might have to remove one fan just to get the oem t3 to fit.

Doh, I just saw this now

Just a note, the crossover pipe will hit the starter on a FWD VQ. You will have to custom a new crossover pipe to run this with a FWD setup. I saw this too late. I would have scooped this up for sure. If there's another set of VQ30DET manis laying around somewhere out there...I'd be glad to take it off your hands.

I'm pretty sure that it hits the coolant tube. Why would it hit the starter?

Anyways, my friend has another set with the turbo. I'm not sure about the condition of the turbo, but you should shoot me a pm if you're interested.

I was following up on the engine on other threads and the RWD starter is on the other side of the block. The FWD starter is just above the bellhousing which is where the crossover pipe runs. I could be mistaken though. I haven't personally done the swap yet. Just what I've read in other forums.

PM sent.
