I like the car, but I've always felt the tails look like they're off the Impala (but that's just me)

Actually my friend just purchased a G35 coupe and he's already ordering the twin turbo, just bolts right in and doesn't need any internals (pistons, cams, valves etc..)
upgraded. He says afterwards he's going to have his ECU reprogrammed by Nismo, so that his twin turbo takes full advantage. There's also talk that motors that can easily be bolted onto a G35 will be right off the the Skylines R34...

Imagine a Nismo tuned Twin Turboed GT-R R34 V-Spec (similar to a Vtec such as the Honda S2000's which is the advanced version of the civic/integra vtech) motor on your ride... I wish I had a damn G35 ::

Twin turbo G35? Why? Isn't it, well, kinda pointless?

There are reasons why there are no more TT cars and people with TT cars usually change that to a single turbo. What reason is there to get a TT kit?

Hold on a sec.... wouldn't that be a stretch? Especially considering the RB-series engines are inline 6's and the VQ is a V6?? I'd think that there would be major fitment issues....

I dunno, I was just told about this, but you do make sense.

I've arleady read this before, it just a big disappointment, with the V-6, I prefer the inline sixes. Who knows what the finished production vehicle will actually look like. That prototype is not very appealing.

twin turbo so the engine can spool up faster and be more daily driveable, but will lack the higher top end compared to a single turbo which will spool up slower in the low end than the TT setup. .

What the hell are you talking about? Isn't this the wrong forum anyway?
