Vq35de

Hey,

I have a question for everyone who has driven maximas with the vq30de engine & those with the vq35de engine.

Is it true that the vq30de is noticeably smoother [than the vq35] as Ward's Auto Magazine claims?

Thanks for any info...

Maybe a little, more noticeable at idle, they both rev smoothly IMO.

If that claim is true then the VQ30DE must be gem, because my VQ35DE is damn smooth.
