The car doesn't have issues overheating on the strip, or even high boost on the street except when I am railing on it for 20min at a time. My old radiator is 1 1/16" thick core, full size, with a d...

It always makes me wonder now, what people plan on using for a transmission. I can't say for certain how successful any trans option is. But I have been unable to put more than 450whp through the 5...

What is your coolant temp getting to?

Only when it gets really hot. But I have golden eagle head studs so I don't think the head is lifting or the gasket is blown.

Yessir, sounds like that to me.

my coolant always boils in the turbo lines lol. On hot days anyways.

If it sounds like the dash creaking it could be the strut mounts.

Yes, I have a solid front dog bone. The motor still has movement because the rear is just a solid urethane mount. With the amount of torque the engine produces it has a hard time coping with it. th...

yea I guess. Could be the engine and manifold design too. But a lot of my friends complained of the stock turbo's demeanor. Automotive journalists complained of lag as well, but I'm guessing that t...

this one?
AMSOIL - Severe Gear Synthetic Extreme Pressure (EP) Gear Lube 75W-140 (SVO)

i've heard that on the 2.0 that it seems laggy, but that's with the WRX guys. Not sure if that is the same turbo they ran on the 03wrx.

No problem man. I try to make this as thorough as possible with lots of pics to help. But sometimes it is hard to get every angle.

I'm glad that it has helped someone :)

I kinda need mine because I don't always run a filter on my turbo.

Really incredible numbers. Putting mine to shame for what I've got. Boost for boost that thing makes more power than my VE, despite having a larger turbo!

VQ35 is still sick as hell. 350whp or not, that 1/4 mile video shows they can really move. Its gotta be killer fun running around in one of those. If only it were OBD2 compliant to swap it ;D

I ...

I've only ever seen 1 side feed fail. Ever. And it was on a 1991 maxima with 220K miles on it.

that should be correct.

Those swaps are just crazy. VQ35 turbo is intense. If I had a VQ in my sentra, I would probably build the nuts out of it and make it all motor high rev. Hell, if the VQ37 stuff could be used for be...

That's one of the reasons I believe the VE loves low backpressure for big power numbers. The ex side doesn't flow that great, but with a free-flowing turbine housing the motor can respond to big ca...

Looks great man. Nice ride for sure. Getting 26mpg ain't too bad. These cars were only rated for like 30mpg highway or something like that, and I'm sure you're not nice to it all the time. Am I rig...

Sorry mullet lovers, didn't mean to offend you with the Journey talk. Jeez.

lol. I didn't mean to imply anything negative towards Journey, or mullets in general. Just letting you guys know what it...

Damn 9500rpm! That's crazy talk! Blasphemy!

At 8800rpm my turbo weezes to put out power. But it allows me to shift when it feels right, instead of clipping the limiter. 1-2nd gears need the extra ...

Nice, well at least someone has them listed. I will buy them shortly after I find a radiator solution I'm working on.

Gonna be nuts.

I think we all know where I stand.

The NX is lighter, and in perfect shape is a great platform. Just look out for the rust. The SEL looks better and 4 doors are very nice. But more weight just bre...
