I have had time to go searching the net tonight looking for info on the VQ25DET.

I have come across a site about some one who has done every possible mod to the M35 inside, outside and to the motor.

Not only has he improved the turbo and the manifold but he has taken it out to a 3.5L VQ25DET.

http://translate.google.com.au/translate?h...N%26start%3D150

Have a good look over the whole site and look for items to click on as there is all sorts of information in the background.

It looks like it is a company called TEPS that does most of the mods and using a Fcon computer.

This is soooooo interesting.

Cheers

Yeah, this was first posted in the "M35 info" a little while back (nice to be able to find it in its own thread though :( )

I am currently trying to get the intake available for everyone, but this may take some time.

The turbo is a GT-RS. Similar to Craigs(?)

Done some nice stuff to it, although everything that is not a "TEPS" item is pretty much a bolt on aftermarket item.

There was another one that installed a VQ35DET and was pushing 450awPS.

Did you see the part where he installed a 20mm spacer at the top of the cylinders to increase the capacity to 3.5L.

Very tempting.

Nope. Didn't read the whole site. I am more of a picture looker :(

Love the idea though!

Didn't TEPS use VQ35 cylinders and cams or something?

I certainly do like his plenum!

You can click on a lot of the photo's and go to more specific information.

This is the section where he fits the 20mm spacer to the block. From what I can work out he does not change any of the internals at this stage.

Thanks for the link to the page, Andy.

Haven't seen that page before.

That is what we are looking at doing when I was referring to a plenum spacer. But we were looking at 10mm. May have to change that size.

From what I read it was a prototype and he seemed happy but in the end does get a full rebuild using 35 pistons and cranks etc chasing more power.

It is additive.

I was just reading about the replacing the intake before the throttle body and he talks about more consistency in boost and better throttle response. hmmm. so much to do and so little budget.

Are you referring to the cone shaped piping between the 60mm rubber intercooler piping and the trottle body?

Scotty was kind enough to modify a 300x76mm piece of aluminium piping to use as a replacement (incorporated BOV mount).

Just need the larger FMIC and make up the rest of the piping.

So much on so little? Tell me about it!

Frustrated to Hell! :(

Yes, The cone. I will wait for the HDI unit I think and see what it looks like.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      By 25RBGT · Posted

      So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov

      That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu.

      Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.

      Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
