My 3.5 Swap

I figured since I'm all motor, I would post this here as well. I want some more comments about this. Thanks for any input.

yeah, does a crank pulley make enough power to feel a difference?

ok but also put into thought that since my car is so much less in weight, and i was on stock old street tires at 95 degrees, its not completely my driving thats at fault. yeah it was my first time EVER at the track so i only ran a 14.6.. but i also just sat all the way through the end of 3rd gear. ill probably buy some better street radials, but im not paying money for slicks. i dont really care about my actually time at the track, i just like to have a sleeper on the street.

You should grab some intake manifold and throttlebody spacers.

I would say so. The information is definitely available here on the site. Contact Aaron92SE, as he is the one that makes them.

hey specvmatt, a little O/T, but I was wondering if anyone has done a VQ35DE into a NX1600/2000? Or even a G20? Those are both two cars I would be interested in swapping a VQ into next. I kinda know that the NX is basically a Sentra, but not sure if that generation accepts the VQ the same as the later gens.

Same car by name, different chassis.
