Turbo M35's.

Can you please tell me how the single turbo is setup on your cars.

I am just curious as the whole thought of slapping a TT on the car seems silly if you can get a big single in there no worries. I think the 3.5 would handle a big single well with minimal lag.

So can you explain to me how they do it on your cars.

Is there a cross over pipe from one bank to the others?

Is the turbo mounted low in the bay??

etc etc.....

Cheers.

The NM35 HAS a single turbo set up.

It's low down on the passengers side, and brings a balance pipe around the top of the bellhousing, joining into the passenger side manifold. The space is limited, and this compromises manifold design, and turbo size.

I would imagine the issue with twin turbos is interference from the steering column on the drivers side. Still, there are TT kits for 350Z, and the basic architecture in the engine bay is similar, so I'd be looking that way to begin with.

I have a manifold here, I think it will bolt straight up to yours but the turbo is too small and I havent seen a bigger turbo that will come close to fitting.

If you wanted to go down the custom manifold route, a single gt30/35 on the lower passenger side should still work.

What are you thinking?

It seems you are the most experienced in this. I was reading about the G 35 APS kit. I'm just thinking the most reliable easily accessible heat efficient option.

I'm sure you have covered every option out there. Feel free to fill me in on the positives and negatives on them.

The more I look into it. The more I feel Nissan didn't want this car modified.

Yeah, I think its been worked out that the VQ25 turbo set up would physically bolt on to a VQ35 straight up. But the turbo couldn't handle 3.5 litres of grunt :rolleyes:

When looking for turbo kits, you have to account for 2 things mate- 1, has to be able to fit a RHD, and 2, has to be able to fit a AWD. So what your looking for is a G35x turbo kit, that can be mounted for RHD. Have a look through this turbo kit site. I don't know where you would go for engine management, if you went down that path.

Alternatively, there is plenty of supercharged kits out there too! lots of options :blink:

Bejesus. Options galore. Thanks.

Anyone bought anything this expensive without being hit by massive tax at customs.

Most of the kits dont have a very good manifold setup and you have to ditch the airbox on the single kits. It would be best to custom make a manifold for your choice of turbo and the new gtx Garrett turbos would be the pick atm. GTX 30 .82 in the stock vq25det location would flow enough I think.

Unfortunately the rods in the vq35de are thinner and weaker than the factory turbo rods, this is to help them rev. I would suggest new bearings, pistons and rods from the states before fitting any forced induction kit.

Ok that makes sense. That's extra coin I hadn't counted on in the immediate future, but I guess that's why I am asking.

Thats why most of the kits seem to be set around 6 psi... some up to 8.5. Way below what the turbo's are actually capable of. If you were to do it, I guess mount up the twin kit, drive it and sort the gearbox while it makes 6 psi. Then when the banks recovered, go blow up the motor with some boost and rebuild with some capable internals :D

Either that go leave it NA and tune that way- which is easy too...

Anyway, parts for our cars mainly come out of the states- the G35 has a massive following.

If I had unlimited coin I'd buy just about everything here to make a high rev NA VQ35. Swappy gearbox to MT / RWD and reduce the weight... somehow :D

Every time I look at that inlet manifold I get a stir downstairs! :D

Bahh, engine driven superchargers are for pussies, unless theres a turbo in front of it... :D

The 6psi limit isn't because of weak rods, it is due to detonation as the stock compression is too high for FI. This can easily be rectified with E85, unfortunately the rods will break with the extra torque and when that happens there will be no resurrecting the engine.

Actually, even the kits that lower comp to 8.5-8.8 keep the low pressure.... due to weak rods :D

i've see thicker drinking straws....

LAWL!! you got nothing to complain about:

Top: my QR25de rods - im pushing 10psi and 280hp through those :|

    • It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have. 
    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including. 
    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.
