Installing A Nm35 Vq25Det In A C34
darrinspencer replied to darrinspencer's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
If I go the VQ25det with a 6spd V35 box I will have to sort the speedo out as the C34 runs off the gearbox and the M35/V35 runs off the rear wheels How do you do this in a C34??? The V35 6 spd is the same price ($1000) as a good R33/R34 RWD box. But the R34/R34 box needs a very expensive adpator to make it to bolt upto the VQ, but the speedo would be sorted. Fould some VQ35 to Rb gearbox adaptors on US ebay for $1150 plus postage. Have not found a aussie one yet to compare price Maybe cut and weld the bell housing like Mercury did on the R34 GTR box in the M35 would be cheaper.... Why can't I keep the VQ25det AWD sump? Do I have to change it to a RWD sump? In 2 weeks I will have both the C34 and M35 cars to compare and probably answer some of my own questions. -
Just to add a bit of usful info I used as per Sydneykids recomendations on the bilsteins shock I bought from him, R33 GTR front springs and R32 GTR rear springs......I used Kings springs approx 4kg

darrinspencer replied to tRUkbOY's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
R34 console details too....I plan to use one in my next build I looked into using one and measured it all up about 4 years ago....its not a direct fit But some things you may live with when comparing a R34 $140 console to $500-700 for a stagea manual console -

Parts list growing M35 wreck for motor, most R34 GTR front end parts lined up, have an offer in on a R34 GTT wreck for more parts needed for the damaged stagea shell I found. Not sure if I will get conversion thru department of transport. Engineer thinks no probelms Wife does not know any of this The 100sq/m shed I hire is full of 80 pairs of seats and 800 4wd snorkel kits plus other parts. Unloaded a 40ft HQ container today that came yesterday. Have 2500 bolt on wheel spacers on order due in 4 weeks Hit the shed owner up this arvo for another 70sq/m of space.....mainly to hide cars and do build etc Yes I have problem I think....... -

thanks Nick....I have already spoken to him I am looking at all options at the moment.......it may be cheaper to buy one from japan with a R34 front already...there is a couple for sale at the moment From what I have been told so far, it does not need to be complianced, as the car gets rebirthed under another totally different chasiss number etc It will not actualy be called or registered as Stagea in the end either -

Installing A Nm35 Vq25Det In A C34
darrinspencer replied to darrinspencer's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
Engine fits between strut towers....done before in 32, 34's Did not think about the AWD sump issue....thanks So the RWD gearbox will not mate up with the AWD sump..... The VQ25det alloy block should be lighter than the Rb25 cast iron block....right? The stagea will be RWD, as lighter than AWD, plus the body will be a fair bit light too So might end up closer weight to a skyline coupe.....should make handling a bit better. Thanks Scott for info -

Who makes the gearbox adaptor plates? off the shelf or custom made? Cam actuation....do mine like VCT? Most aftermarket ecu's have a trigger to turn on and off I suppose its not on/off, but varible I had a similar issue once with a motec M4 on a black 20V 4age I might grab the VQ anyway....workout the issues later Can always sell it again if I do not use it or if its too hard -

Vq25det is already turbo. So compression is right, turbo manifolds etc Can get a vq25det front cut for $1000 sell rb25det vq35 is non turbo......add turbo or supercharger kit plus to buy engine equals $10K plus... $ verse cents really tring to keep to a cheap budget build
