Check this motor out?
Hey guys, I don't know much about JDM motors. But is this thing the same block and mounts as a maxima vq30 or did this place get the motor wrong?

That's a RWD motor, so it wouldn't work without some modifications.

i don't know i was just doing some searching for a vq30's and that popped up, weird that it has the same identification as a vq30de only a T on the end for hte turbo. I wonder what hte actual block looks like without the tranny, and come on who wouldn't want a RWD maxima

thats a gloria/cedric granturismo ultma motor VQ30DET. tilley tried to use it but all he got to fit was the heads. the internals are able to be used on our cars for FI. which is an cost effective way to get a semi bulletproof vq being they can hold 500hp stock
