What are the possibilities of a VQ30DET in a maxima
Who thinks a VQ30DET swap is possible in a Maxima, I know it would take extensive work but just wondering what you guys think about it?

91 240SX w/ DET motor would be awesome. I'd stick to SR20DET red top, alot more power potential than VQ25DET.

OK heres the deal I got a VQ30DET from yo its ok the block will not bolt into a maxima cause theres nowhere to bolt the motor mounts,the brace that holds the passenger side driveshaft and AC and alternator brackets are different. So im in process of swapping everything over to my original block which is a big job all the internals bolt right in which Ive got done already. Once I get the headgaskets and rearmain seal I can get it all put back together.
I'm the first to flame and the first to say "good job". Simple as that. I never flamed Hogan, just wanted info to help others. I never made it a big deal.

This is the S15 Red Top w/ 6speed tranny.
I have the S15 cluster, and when wrecked the car had less than 10K Km on it. Asking $4000. Engine has full wiring harness intact, I have another SR20DET red top S14, 18K KM on it, automatic $2700. Excellent condition as well.
SR20DET black top, automatic $2200.
If anyone needs B16B or B18C5( 98Civic Type R, 99Integra Type R respectively) let me know.

Why is it not possible to turn the VQ30DET engine into a fwd? Why can you just replace the transmition from rwd to fwd?
