1st Fully Built 5.5Gen - NA
#366
Not much more is needed if your car comes with a vq35 from the factory. I have done the research and have half of parts needed for a 4th gen. You guys really just need an ecu and harness. I say this because we have a local uprev tuner that can bypass the rest. I lost intrest in the full swap and osiris tune for my 4thgen, but If i were to find a 5.5 or 6th @ the auction........ Game on!

I can bypass it all too (uprev tuner package FTW). But at the same time the 5.5 gen ecu controls more functions than the 6th gen... for ex cooling fans, and AC compressor, also the 5.5 gauge cluster has individual inputs ex coolant temp, rpm, cruise set, cruise on. While the 6th gen has CAN high and low running to the gauges.
Its not simple as put 6th gen ecu and harness in, If it was i would of been done months ago.
Sorry P on the thread high jack!!!
Is it time for a 5.5 gen with ecu swap thread? lolz

yeah deckedout looks like he just came out of the movie theathers and onto the track WTF ! ?
By yea no shorts allow at our tracks , then you sit in your car waiting at the track while your sweating your ***** off
Good run Deckedout, she sounds very healthy !

It is as simple as reading a schematic(alldata, Shopkey) & replacing wiring. this is why I and others with experience and knowledge dont bother posting....I saw someone who is dedicated to building a powerfull & reliable car so i decided to add my .01cent.
Nevermind... I say put your utec back in and be done with it.
Now back to the scheduled program...

Ok let me make this clear for you 1 time. Everything you just wrote sounds impressive to noobs, but You know deep down inside what I meant by " 05 ecu & harness will allow you to use uprev"

Thats Right.

If you can make a 6gen or 350z ecu and harness work on a 4gen than it can be done on a 5.5gen too.
btw, he was talking about the tuners being able to disable the security system so you dont need the original key, nats and etc also the drive by wire for those who want to run a pftb.

I don't need anyone to spoon feed me. I merely stated that if it was readily available I would purchase one. You have no idea what I've been through so far.

Damn, I need to get uprev. Thank god it is so expensive. lol
#375
Uprev is the way to go imo even if it requires more work then one would think so. However that doesn't mean its not possbile accomplish it. Seems like just nobody wants to risk it and go for it. The biggest issue like it has been stated would be hooking up the gauge cluster. And a better donor vehicle would be an 03-04 350z then a 6th gen maxima i think.
But good luck to the OP in any direction he heads. Keep the thread updated

Fyi, osiris works on the 03-04 350z, its the 1st gen G sedans that don't play well since they use a maxima 5.5 gen style ecu.
The 6gen works fine since it uses the newer style ecu with the round connectors

That's not bad. I just don't have $550 laying around at the moment. That's cool that they added a 2 step to the features. Pretty sure that they didn't offer that when I was looking like a year ago.
#378
Yeah I found out the map switching feature after I had mine done and my tuner didnt say a word about it. SMH
#389
cuz money to hp ratio on an n/a set up does not compare to going turbo
and he should have bored out the piston a 60 or 90 over i think the build was domed from the start when he also decided to not go with the bigger cams didn't the car run a 14

I'm on the path to blowing your assumptions right out of the water. Now that the timing chain is set correctly it's running like a **** off freight train. I ran a 14 with a skipped timing chain tooth, a 15 degree incorrect intake cam timing advance, and no tune what so ever. I'll reserve my breath and further comments until I'm satisfied with the tune on the standalone.
#391
Deckout keep us posted, you have a nice build.

N/A VQ building is something quiet unique, considering how well this engine responds to mods. Most v6s need a turbo to even get past a 300HP, while the Vq can hit 350whp on a 96mm bore and stock stroke, pretty amazing in my book. Money well spent, considering turbo setups can be unreliable most of the time till all the bugs are worked out and then its a matter of keeping it that way as well.
Slapping a turbo on a stock motor is the easy way out for some time, until you have to do a rebuild, then it just becomes just as costly. I still love the sound of a fully built NA VQ engine over one that has been turbo'd

So you drift FWD cars eh?

yes with a bigger bore and stroke it would definably be worth going n/a. If i remember right he only did a 20 mm bore and a small cam
I was just saying that if i were going to put that much money on an n/a set up i would have went all out bored .90 over and the biggest cam possible maybe even a stroker. I'm not knocking what your doing i wish you all the luck it your car and money hope you reach your goal .

I don't know anything about anything, Maximas or otherwise. The only thing I know is Deck'ds build has the most potential to give what the majority of the org wants to see/know,etc, and he's got the brains behind the project to back it.
It's taken me months to 'install' floormats, so I can sympathize with his situation, buying houses, maintaining houses, and life in general.

knowledgeable yes ..... Not maxima's just cars in general , what i meant was .90 over. No need to get mad cuz you don't like what you hearing . deckedout gets a lot of respect for what he's doing i just would have did it a different way .
