Turbo kit for VQ35 from Custom Maxima

Does anyone have any more information regarding the kit that they're making? Their site said that they were looking for car to prototype the kit on.

Don't hold your breath.

However, PFI's 4th gen. kit can be modded the same way Kev did to make it fit his car UNLESS the fed manifolds won't fit. I thought they did, but then I read Ethan's post somewhere saying they don't. I'm not sure anymore. If the manifolds fit, it just takes a bit of work.

The manifolds them selves bolt onto a 2002 perfectly. However a fed spec y-pipe(95-00) will not bolt onto a 2002(2002 being equipped with 95-00 manifolds). However, a cali-spec Y-pipe will bolt onto a 2002 with a rear bank (aka left bank) 95-00 fed spec manifold. It seems the positioning of the headers is slitely further apart on a 2002. A cali spec Y-pipe is a tight fit, and when a fed spec y-pipe is introduced the fitment issue is exagerated two folds. So.. basicly the Y-pipe piece would need to be modified some but the manifolds them selves are good to go. Very confusing, I know..

What if you replaced both banks with 95-00 fed spec manifolds and got a cali-spec Y-pipe then had a muffler shop make a curved piece to connect the front of the Ypipe to the front manifold?

Even if you go past that, the starter would be somewhat in the way. You'll need to loose the stock fans.
