Turbo In V35

[deejaydip]

Can you put turbo in a V35? How much would it cost? Where do you get it? I want to be cool!!!

Dont we all .lol

ders a big discussion on these topics in this forum, Jus do a search and ul find all ur answers. Yes it can be done but its a very expensive process.

think north of $10k as a bare minimum to get it done properly. some spent $17-22k which is considered the norm for a well designed layout / install and tune.... e.g. APS kit

should have bought an R34 mate... :-) or M35 stagea... the turbos come 'free' in those... works out cheaper to swap

There is a turbo V35 going for sale in carsales. HERE.

Very nicely done.. going for 45k. Perhaps you can get some ideas from there.

I already bought a v35. I love it. My folks helped me, and they thought R34's were too old. I'll buy one eventually...oh and a Ford Mustang with a blower...What? A guy can dream, can't he? I wonder if you could put a blower on a v35...with a hole in the hood, V35 Muscle/Tuner hybrid. Why oh why isn't there a pimp my ride in australia? Probably cause everything is banned in australia.

If there was, i'd just buy the body of a r34 and post a video to pimp my ride. Remake the whole thing. Fully sickness bro. More fuller then full.

Actually, come to think about it. I would buy the body of a nissan Gtr...I'll call up Jap World and ask.

Oh, btw...Brian from Just Cars...I don't have enough posts to reply to you yet, but you are f**king awesome!!! Peace

So, anyone else got anythoughts?

HKS does two kits, one is s/c and the other is tt kit... they're about $7-10k parts only ex japan not including install & tuning... if you can find someone to tune the supplied piggy back / replacement ECU.

APS have around $17k drive in drive out tt solution. Oh and if yours is 5sp auto you'll need have the auto rebuild

locally to withstand 500HP which is not included in APS' package. You see it will never be cheap to do FI on this car,

so best to leave it alone as N/A unless you are fully loaded with cash and got nothing better to do with them.

every country has their own different rule, unfortunately they can't just change the law for the sake of a bunch of 'pimp my ride' fans who felt left out. if you can't stand it, maybe take up a course/degree in teaching, and apply for an english teaching job in Japan and live there. car mod scene is more relaxed there... although they do still have 3-yearly road inspection called the 'shaken' which means they do still have some limits on how you modify your car before it's deemed unroadworthy and cannot be registered...

When I was mucking around with mine I did consider a VQ30DET conversion. Decided to not go that way at the time, however, think it would be worth considering in future. Can pick up VQ30DET's for under $2000. Would have to look at sensor compatability......

[rs73]

wondering if there's anyone 'brave' enough to try VR38DETT converstion... if that is possible, of course...

Can't see why not given it is essentially the same block as the VQ. Aftermarket Engine management would be required but to purchase a VR you'd pay more than the market value of the V35 for a front cut

I was considering doing this to a v36.

I use my V35 for work and it works well because its a sedan w/ CVT and just a plain good ride.

The reason i was going to go for the 36 is cause its got more powahhh to start of with and id be getting the manual coupe. No really point in having two of the same car either.

Spoke to a few people and the general concensus is that you'd be looking at about 20k to get it done right.

This includes: the kit, ecu, exhaust, cant remember if they incl brakes, and proper tune.

To me this would be AWESOME!

Since I do use cars for work i can claims stuff of tax, so I'm going to chat to my accountant and see what we can and can't do.

But the way I see it, $60-70k for a car that would be very quick and fun, w/ the skyline name and tradition, without the stigma attached to the hotplates would be pretty cool.

and it would just be really different.

Which is always good.

Hope that helps!

Cheers,

Tony
