wud a vg30dett motor fix in our maxima's ?? ( twin turbo motor from 300zx) because u can get 1 for around $2200 and the spent about $600 in intercooler and piping and it will have close too 300hp??? But do u guys think that motor wud fit?

 

Stillen has a conversion kit. Give them a call.

 

We don't think. WHat do you think this is, a BMW forum. It won't fit and that's that. If I were you I'd donate $20 to the org and use the search function. A vq30dett doesn't exist does it? Not on a production car.

 

He said VG30DETT. Which does exist. hehe

 

Damn it, why did I see VQ. Damn you Jeff, damn you again for the zillionth time.

 

doesn't the manual z32 TT's come with 295hp already. So intercooled it may be around 320hp.

 

yah thats what im saying and the motor is only around 2500 and piping and intercooler around 700 so that is still cheaper than buying a turbo or supercharger kit ...AND you have a extra motor incase one decides to take a shyt

 

Sorry, Dave but VQ30DETT engines were produced. They powered the Cedric and Silvia models.

~THT

 

2 TT or 1 T? I thought it was VQ30DET?

 

I thought TT but I could very well be (and probably am) wrong.

~THT

 

Cedric....

 

TMK there is no production car with a VQ30DET. I know nissan used a twin turbo VQ30 in a racing skyline.

The VG30DETT is a massive engine. It will never fit; TMK it has never been used in a FWD application. If you try to swap anything but a VQ into a maxima then you are wasting time by even asking us about it. We will say you are crazy and it is pointless.

The VG30DETT has about 300hp at the crank stock.

You would be better off SCing your car and selling the motor to someone with a Z32 or buying a Z32 that has a blown engine, a really cheap non turbo or some kind of RWD car that you could put it in.

 

Firewall clearance = none

 

speaking of vg30dett, doesnt someone on the org have a rear wheel driven maxima? i believe it was beige or white

 

The sad thing is I don't know if you are joking or not. Water boy

 

it was awhile back Jeff, someone had a pic of it i dont know if it was photoshopped or what. the back wheel was spinning and the back of the car was downards

 

haha one of Clee's photoshops.......... your a sad boy

 

OMG!

 

hey no comments from you ant

 

lol nobody told me it was photoshopped....... you guys are mean

 

What about this engine?

I would give props to someone that could get a DD engine swapped and working in the usa. Probably not that hard but then again 210hp? Not really worth the effort

 

where does it make more power? Please show as last I checked ps doesn't equal hp. That engine had direct injection and we don't have the fuel that the engine needs, higher sulfur levels or some **** like that.

 

Anybody got that photoshop?

It's not the same, but it's really close:

1 PS = 735.49875 W

I have one the VG30DETT and a RWD conversion. I got it on clearance from Stillen a while back and threw it on one weekend. It's great

 

Dang this thread has some crazy info!

First of all the swap is a piece of cake. I had Midas do the swap in an afternoon, cost me like $183.72 or so. Jiffy Lube wanted to charge me $211.95 but I told them to shove it. Plus I would have had to flush the blinker fluid cooling system and switch to a ceramic ball bearing muffler myself if I had Jiffy Lube do the swap. Midas included both of these things in their price! Awesome.

Furthermore, the VQ30DET was available in the Gloria and Cedric, not the Silvia. Silvia=240sx and if that came with a VQ30DET, everyone and their brother would have one swapped into their USDM 240s (including myself in a friggin heartbeat). But they don't, because it didn't.

There is a twin turbo VQ30DE in the JGTC Fairlady Z, whether or not that is considered a factory VQ30DETT would be up for debate though. I say if it wasn't ever in a production car, it's a VQ30DE with twin turbos, but one could say otherwise. I know I don't consider myself having a VQ30DET just because I have a VQ with a turbo on it.

 

wow no wonder your cars so fast neal. hey did they throw in a driverside door for you at midas as well?

 

didnt silvias come with the SR20DET
