Thats my transmission. Its cute.
Its a 6spd with ser spec V gears, its been micropolished and die cut at a machine shop. Clutch is a JWT with 3.0 timing ring and JWT flywheel. Its pretty.
This is what we stuffed in it. Its a PTE6266.
The turbo Stuff: ^That turbo, Tial 52mm wastegate, HKS SSQ BOV, custom reverse y pipe with some ebay shorty headers, Scavenge pump, all your typical gauges (AEM Wideband & EBC)
That is all the y pipe I have, almost none, which is cool for spooling purposes. Yes that is a motor mount wielded to the frame of the car that is holding my turbo in place.
and this is what it looks like assembled.
And...since then I got that big long pipe tig welded because I didnt like the way it looked...
The interior is getting love too. Don't think for a moment I'm gonna stay stock with the seats. These are cipher, some model for bigger dudes.
I have also carbon fiber overlaid my dash, gauges, and pedals. I have some carbon fiber pillar overlays that are getting slapped in there once the wiring for the gauges is done. I also have an ortiz gauge pod on top of the steering column for my wideband and ebc.
I still modify mine, only a little bit though to make it look good. under the hood is stock, no CEL and not sure if I plan to mod it more. That may change though.. It looks good the way it is now, i chose to go with the luxury look and thats the theme my car has..
where did you get the side skirt bumper lip and tail pieces from??? I really don’t like the aftermarket bumper choices I love the look of the oem bumper with the lip but cannot for the life of me figure where to buy

Hello, I have a b12 swap vq30-k, I want to make it turbo, my question is how many pounds does the stock engine hold?
Too generic to answer and boost pressure isn't the limiting factor. If there are zero mods to the car and you install a turbo or supercharger you might get away with 2 or 3 pounds. If you add the correct supporting fuel system, proper dyno tuning, with zero internal engine mods? There are supercharged and turbo 2013+ 3.5 engines making 500+ whp. I'm guessing 10 psi or so.
NOICE!!! How long have you been Supercharged? Stock 3.6 pulley? Perhaps my memory is fuzzy, but the last I remember, you added the Stillen Kit and the wheels.
Not too many clean 4th gen Maximas out there anymore....

I put it on fall of 2019. Summer of 2022 I took the belt off because the rubber in the stock crank pulley was looking iffy. Yup 3.6", nothing fancy.
Just started working on my 4th gen again this year. Got some new axles, starter, alternator, clutch master & slave cylinder, stainless steel clutch line and up next hopefully is a new front lip.
JSutter .. I wish my engine bay was that clean! You spit shinning or what? Looks great man..

Thanks. It was a huge amount of effort over years. Here's what it looked like when I bought it, aside from the Stillen bits that is. Get out the degreaser and hose.
