Pics of it installed would be great. I believe this is the front manifold, if so is the rear one the same as stock vq30de or different, also which turbos can bolt up to it?

 

education system not working so well.

 

I really think english is not his primary language...

 

we didn't try only the standar one , as u see it's better than the y-pipe

for info ( no body try it here in my country they Y-pipe )

about the turbo work it's very good as i see it in my friend car

if u have any info or picture about y pipe and how can i install it just post it and thnx for posting all of u

 

Links are dead...

 

Work for me

 

Whats the biggest turbo that can fit on that? T28?

 

Sonova......


They're working now...

 

So you're saying you have indeed fitted these onto your friend's Maxima? Have you bolted up a turbo yet and tried running things turbocharged?

If so, you, my friend, may have just disproved a lot of negative theory. I'm in for pictures installed on the car

 

It will be a TIGHT fit with the radiator fans and any decent size turbo IMO.
I would add a pipe to where the turbo would go and move it so the turbo can sit where the batt is right now.

 

I agree. Wouldn't too hard to do, either. A couple of flanges and a small amount of piping welded up.

 

Yupp.

Maybe I should...

 

You best believe it's on my mind now, as well. How to get a hold of the manifolds, though?

Also, am I correct in assuming that crossover pipe bolts up the same rear manifold that our NA cars have? If that's the case, installation of this manifold and crossover shouldn't be that difficult, since it's the rear manifold that's difficult to access.

 

Can someone save and rehost? This is interesting

 

the link is edited

but i don't think there is a problem , because if u want to install a T28 u Can But A Plate and reach it upon the tranmission and it will be more easy to install it

 

tatanko it run normaly and i will bring for u picture the turbo is installed in his car

 

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Just curious, where are you from?

 

the links are
they dont work for me and i wanna see!!! i wanna see!!!

 

they are working perfectly.. let me rehost

 

 

They go out intermittently, probably due to low bandwidth allowances.

 

very interesting.. I would also like to see this on the car. I wonder how long till someone else tries it.

 

As soon as we can locate some manifolds and suitable parts to go with them, I'd say.

 

i love seeing new things being tried out...

 

I must say, when this guy first IM'd me, I was like "who the f*ck is this idiot??" He's from Kuwait for those wondering so his English isnt the best. Ive wondered int he past if a manifold setup like this could work, but had no idea that the DET mani's were set up this way. If he isn't full of sh*t, this would mean that 2 of the biggest performance improvements for the maxima community would have come from our Middle eastern neighbors.

 

How common are the manifolds? I doubt they are cheap from nissan.

 

Id say as common as a DET engine. BUT, what I think would be more of a viable solution would be to find someone to build a set based on the same idea, or if possible, a set up pipes coming off our stock manis in the same way.....

Those?

 

From what I see, you need both manifolds. As it looks like the x-over tube runs over the tranny into the 4th flange section. Someone confirm where your starter is. If it's on top of the tranny, there might be clearance problems? Auto vs manual? You can tell where the turbo will be. One of you guys should take a look and see how much room you have inbetween the front head and radiator fans. You can always get rid of one fan for room.

 

this is starting to look a little promising...

 

According to this thread/post...it's already been done...

Can't wait for the pics.

 

I wonder if there is any way to use them with a larger turbo?

 

The best thing you can do is buy an adapter for T25/28 to T3/T4

 

i will post the picture after 12 hours when i come back from the work

( now i return from uae ) and it's night now

tatanko i am from kuwait and my name is ali

 

Good to hear from you. We're all patiently waiting

 

+1.. this has the potential to drastically change my upcoming project.

 

so wait a minunite the glorias have a t28 turbo instead of the early 300zx t3/t4 atent the t3/t4's bigger and put out much air and why would they only put one on a det engine why didnt they just slap a dett in there

 

and if you ask me they lok like 300zx turbo manifolds except for the divorced chamber

 

For those curious what this looks like on a VQ, I stumbled across some pictures (too big for [img] tags, just click on them):
