Installing A Nm35 Vq25Det In A C34

[iamhe77]

6-speed never came in AWD and doesn't appear to bolt up to the RE5 transfer case thus the thought that you'd have to go RWD if you stay with the 6 speed.

Either way, interested to see which way you go Darren. Best of luck

[scotty nm35]

Why can't I keep the VQ25det AWD sump? Do I have to change it to a RWD sump?

The starter doesn't line up as it's about 15mm out. The crank sensor mount is correct at least, unlike the pathfinder. The VQ30det sump won't work either, you need the VQ35de sump from the 350z or V35 if using the 6 speed.

Where is the link to the adapters? I wonder if that would allow bolting up the 33gtr box I have here...

Heres a link to a Vq35 to Rb20 box.....is the VQ25 the same as a VQ35?

They have listring for Rb25 boxes as well......but should be no difference....R33 GTR should be same

Ok AWD to RWD sump is clear now...Thanks

I was planning to run RWD if I go the VQ25det....the speedo it a pain thou with 350/V35 box.

_{They do a fair few bits for the a VQ35 in a S13/14 chasiss....might be of some use}

The speed signal is taken from the abs computer from the wheel sensors in the m35, you will have to do the old magnet on the tailshaft trick and use a Jaycar speedo adjuster for the pulses or similar.

I will check out the links, thanks mate.

The atessa Ecu takes speed from the wheel sensors, maybe you could find an appropriate output from that?

pretty epic build!

Those main caps are purrrrdy.

Vq30DET install in a S15....can run a nistune which is handy and suit rwd manual gearbox setup a bit better too....might be betterthen VQ25det???

[iamhe77]

Easier, yes but vq25det > vq30det

Sometimes orphans make better kids ...

[zei20l]

like james bond. also VQ30DET is an OLD motor. VQ25DET has NEO

[PN-Mad]

WTF is "neo" suppose to be anyway?

Is it just flappy cams?

There is a later version of VQ30det that is neo.

[Dunc]

I think its something to do with being the chosen one

[zei20l]

constantly variable intake valves. like vtek yo

[PN-Mad]

you obviously have NFI what VTEC actually is Iain.

Its not that.

[bigkevracer]

[zei20l]

ahh NEO was the wrong acronym I was looking for. anyway the VQ25DET has constantly variable intake cam timing. much like i-vtec

[darrinspencer]

I was starting to think a Y33 VQ30det would be a easier swap being RWD, Nistune avaiable for the ECU, etc.

Have spoken with Nistune and they are looking into a M35 Nistune version....long way off yet thuo, only early days

I am no rush, engine is the last mod needed on the next build....bodywork is the priority. C34 donor car is already teaked with highflow and heap of other extras.

The M35 can sit in the corner until I decide to use it....

bahhahahahahahahahahaa

Don't hold your breath.

That is all. The ECU is a orphan.

I really love your idea with the car mate - and the can do attitude. I hope it becomes reality and something pretty cool.

What year is your stagea? My '03 y34 gloria runs a vq30det neo engine...
