Hi all

Does anyone know about what kind of supercharger to go for on my v35 .Im currently looking at an eaton m90.Does anyone know of these,compatability,install info,etc.Can get in a raised hood to suit as well so clearance not an issue.Thanks.

hi matt,

a few things, first have you checked out the V35-specific section of the forum? there are a few that already have supercharger kits fitted and you will get more exposure to the V35 crowd there:

secondly, a lot of info can he had on the g35driver.com forums as fitting TT kits or supercharger kits is commonplace over there. some good info here:

and lastly, what other mods do you have on your car?

hi

I recently installed a Stillen Stage 3 supercharger on my v35, i had to cut bonnet but stillen provides a nice carbon fibre moulded bonnet scoop

hmmm, there might be an hks kit specifically for v35. saw a v35 getting fitted with a blower off a 350z, wasnt a straight swap tho(be warned)

it didnt really seem worth it honestly, sure it was punchy but was a bit lacking up top, the guy with the 350z ended up putting a single 3037s kit on, big underbonnet temp issues with that, so still not a good solution. lol

those twin low mount turbo kits kits r kinda sweet, no exhaust crossover pipe and temp issues like the hks kit. but turboing it is a whole other thread.

remember those v35's r high compression like 11+:1 from memory, dont push it too hard if its stock. wont take masses of timing or boost. might have to settle for 230rwkw or so if u go supercharged.

if possible look at a m112 off a jag v8. they come with two big water to air intercoolers. i herd of a guy who fitted 1 to a 1UZ-fe.

Screw the old chargers get the new TVS chargers - they are much more efficient. http://www.eaton.com/EatonCom/ProductsServ...s/TVS/index.htm

The R1900 would be my pick for around 300rwkw @ around 6psi of boost at 6700rpm on a 3.5L.

The stock rods would go at around 250-270rwkw from what I have heard. The high rev's have lighter rods again.

Almost any good FI setup would require forged pistons and h-beams/bearings at a minimum but then you are good for a lot more than 300. I have been looking into this for my Stagea as the VQ25det's don't have aftermarket parts available and i'm not sure how far I can push it. I cant afford to put a window in the block just yet. :bunny:

Sorry to bring up an old post but i have a V35 sedan, looking at forced induction (VQ25DET from stagea is tooooo expensive and is for AWD and my car is RWD), looking at a supercharger but im wondering if the kit for the VQ35DE would fit on the VQ25DD Neo Di or would i have to get a custom one? Anyone know a good shop tjat is willing to do it? Any help would be great

Check this link: http://www.bulletcars.com/superchargers/rotrex-supercharger-system.html and give them a call.

First hand experience with Rotrex, they are compact and virtually silent in operation.

I'd be surprised if Bullet don't have something already to suit the V35.

Fitting a supercharger would cost much more than a S/H VQ25det conversion, plus dd's are nearly 12:1 compression, it would only work if you went e85 imo.

Your gearbox will bolt straight up to a VQ25det so it is only the ecu you need to worry about.

I have the RE4RO1B four speed which is different to the box fitted to the VQ25DET. Just want a supercharger because i thought it would be an easier task than doing a VQ25DET conversion. Plus then i can say i have a superchargwd V35 sedan with a M35 stag nose

The hks won't work without modification I believe. Ive seen and installed one. The big bracket that hangs the charger and pulleys is made for a motor without variable exhaust cam. It bolts right onto the front cover there, so I'd bet that you'd have to make a new one or modify it.

The other thing you have to worry about is your direct injectors. Who knows what capacity they are, and if they will safely support the extra fuel needed for a s/c. It's not like you can drop injectors in easily, with aftermarket support. And find a ecu to work.

Have you priced a vq25det motor? I know it would be very difficult to wire in, but it should bolt right up to your gearbox, or you could use the box that comes with it without the front shaft, or even a 5spd from v35 or 350z will go in, or a manual. It's just a matter of getting everything to talk to each other. You'd get a motor for the price of one of those kits.

    • In a few years from now, you'll regret that. It'll eat away at you, knowing the truth of the ugly hiding beneath the beautiful exterior... 馃槢
    • I don't think the G2 profile is particularly dangerous for the engine per se, more just are you actually ok with the turbo lag trade-offs? If the answer is yes then go for it. I personally don't think I'd be ok with it because I spend so much time at lower RPMs and I really enjoy the feeling of being able to stay in 5th gear on the highway and just roll into the throttle to get boost. Or staying in 3rd gear on "gentle canyon cruises" without feeling the turbo lag too badly. The 525 pump should be able to run flat out on factory lines but I would bet the pressure drop from pump to regulator is quite impressive. I don't know how much it would be exactly but I've seen figures like 30 psi thrown around.
    • It's interesting seeing everyone talk about what level of risk they are happy to tolerate.  Building a GTR always has a level of risk, you could be that lucky guy that drops 20k on the engine build alone and still has the thing go pop on the dyno. Life is fun like that.  The way I see it, the thing is a toy to be enjoyed. I'd be happy to turn up the power on stock motor and limit the risk with sensible tuning and engine protection. If it still goes pop, it is what it is. The car isn't a daily driver so it can happily sit while a plan is made to sort it out.  Given this thing will be a street car only, I really feel it's worth the (relatively small if managed well) risk to turn the power up to around 350KW on e85.  I don't think anyone getting into the skyline game now is doing it out of logic. Surely it is a purely emotional decision so I'm not sure how important it is to think about the engine build logically. The heart wants what it wants.  @joshuaho96 little note for Josh, I run my 525 pump flat out all the time and through the factory lines without any issues. (excluding the melting connectors, that's sorted now. we'll pretend it never happened lol)
    • But the Nexus S3 is very expensive and won't be as purpose-built for the application as a separate electronic boost controller :^) More seriously my pet issue here would be that the Walbro 525 running at 100% duty cycle is going to require more FPR than the stock setup can handle. I'm also pretty sure from what I've seen elsewhere you might want to slow down the pump regardless unless you're going to come up with some way of upsizing the fuel lines coming from the fuel tank. Factory 8mm fuel line doesn't actually flow very much if you want to keep pressure drop down between the fuel pump outlet and FPR. If you really want to "keep it simple" I would run only as much pump as you need and source a fuel pump controller to slow down the pump in the vain hope of being able to run stock-style FPRs which are pretty dinky. Or just use the HICAS lines and it should be mostly fine. OP should also really think hard about what profile they'd want out of the turbo. My pet choice here would be the G1 profile rather than anything higher power but YMMV. I already think ~stock turbo lag is pretty bad so I don't want to make it worse. In "gentle canyon cruising" I found that I spent a lot of time around 4-4.5k RPM. I also recommend DIYing labor if you're detail-oriented enough. Costs are high for labor + if you do it yourself you can be your own quality control.
    • GTSBoy is again on the money. My actual advice? Sell the car. (really). For what it's worth as is, you can sidegrade into something much better. If you care about function then this is the actual move. If you want a Skyline to perform, set aside about $100K to do it. This is NOT a typo. You will see right away these are two very different mindsets. Realistically we're talking full restomod for any Skyline still kicking around. Have an honest think about which one you are.. and what you want to do, and how much you want to invest in this (with no return).
