3.5 Engine in 4th Gen.
3.5 Engine in 4th Gen.
Does anyone know How fast the fourth gen will be after the swap is complete i mean i would like to do it if it is worth it ... for the people who have the swap done can you beat mustang gt's...... or come damn close or can you race with stock srt-4's.... or wrx's .... and are you guys swaping the 5th gen maxima engine in or the 6th gen engine in .... and about how much did it cost to get the whole process done with
never work.
The electronics would not support it.
The 4th uses 16 bit and the 5th uses 32 bit. This would not allow control of the VTC's or the electronic throttle. Also the clearance between the intake manifold and hood would be too close, meaning when the engine I under load, and flexes, it would put strain on the hood supports. Also the corss member is too high on the 4th gen so the oil pan and bell housing would rub.
Best thing to do is buy the AEBS stroker kit, and interchange parts from the VQ30 and the AEBS kit.

Check the 1/4 mile forums to see what A32's have been running when equipped with the VQ35.

You guys are harsh on the new guys. Help the man out. I've been out of the Maxima scene for a while and things have changed around here. Instead of a bunch of useless posts, provide links and information. That's what are here for isn't it?g

's on here are too lazy, and wont try, at least an honest effort is all we ask.

Everyone here has asked newb questions. I got my Maxima when I was 19 and asked my share of newb questions. I am sure somewhere along the line a OG member here has helped you out. In the old days, you could easily search this forum. It was a lot easier to find information. It's just as easy to copy a link as it is to chastize someone.
Spend a morning in the 4th gen forum and you'll see what I mean. People can't find their drain plugs...want to change VQ timing belts, think that intakes sitting in between the exhaust manifold and radiator are still considerd a CAI, buy spark plug wires for the VQ,
...I'll post a link or 2 and help out, but typically make the rookie try and think, and give them a few hints before I get the spoon and bib out.

That was the very first thread posted in this forum. Take note of the extreme sarcasm.
Spoon feeding gets real old real quick.
