Kinda OT but cool! Nismo experimented with the VQ!!

OK i dont know exactly what the deal is...but i was reading through the March 2003 edition of Super Street in the Article about the Xanavi Skyline that races in the GT500 class of the JGTC and on page 70 is says

"...the Xanavi Nismo Skyline pushes the RB26DETT engine to its maximum capacity, although midway through the 2002 season Nismo experimented with a twin turbo VQ engine."

Thats as far into detail as it goes about the VQ...think it could have been the VQ30 or VQ35?? Anyway thought this might be worth posting...just a little intersting info on Nismo and the VQ engine.
