ok, so someone said it was possible. i'm wondering if it'll fit in the bay. i can have a hood done, and roots types blowers suck, but i can custom make pulleys if i have to (uncle owns a robot producing plant and we make and use CNC routers, can easily custom cut one out) anyway, what i'm worried about is will it fit in my engine bay? If it will, i may start looking for one. I have a hook up for engines. . . . i just want to know if it'll fit. thanks guys.

 

4 wheel drive max sounds good to me

 

This sounds very interesting to me... I would also like to hear what the max gurus have to say... :-)

 

isnt that motor slow....even with a supercharger, i thought i saw somewhere that the 0-60 was like 10 something....maybe weight iunno

 

According to Car & Driver

99-01 Nissan Xterra 1.2 L Inline 3 Cylinder
0-60 ....... 23.00 Secs Flat
1/4 Mile.... 1 min 37 Secs
Top Speed... 85 1/4 M.P.H.
Braking Dis. 1,234 Feet

The commercial was right "Everything you don't need, and Nothing you Do "

 

210 hp, 250 lbft tq, i thought that had some potential. even if it's a roots blower, i could still up the boost.

 

the 3.3 liter V6 Xterra runs runs an 18 second 1/4th mile and a 0-60 of 10 seconds...but the 4cyl. auto version sucks like the stats posted show..... only 150 or so HP and torque and a freaking 4000+lb curb weight.....

 

ok, talking about the supercharged V6. . ..

 

ok what about just the motor in a 3rd gen? or better yet, what if we took the supercharger off and adapted it to the vg or ve? i would imagine thats its possible, how much boost does the supercharge put out?

 

it's a roots blower, so it's not that great, i was thinking adding NOS to a newer blown motor. i have a hookup on motors.

 

Your options: Mod your VE some more.



VG33 blower drop in your car is a waste of time and money. And it probably will not work.

 

I'm more interested in the pathfinder motor swap or converstion to the vg30.

 

all I can say is buy the motor and see if it works out
....as for me I'm sticking with the VG30, should have my spare by end of December, then the fun begins.....

 

I gave this a thought before also. I reserve any comment until I actually look at one. The interesting thing is the sc to lower intake manifold connection and how low the thing sits. If it replaces the upper intake and sits right inbetween the V6 banks, it at least deserves a look.
