This is fun.

Seriously tho, why wouldn't it work? Still waiting on a valid reason.. Head studs aren't it, sorry. "it would already be a thread if it did" is not a reason.. sorry.

Like I said... around fall. The 944 isn't finished yet. I ripped it apart for a full ground up thats almost done.

I could start a thread about what it would take now. Brainstorming, and going down the rqabbit hole I guess. It's gonna be like fall before I can start buying parts, and actually doing it tho. Of course after I've crossed all the t's and dotted i's.

One question. What is the biggest problem with the VQ37? Got to know what you are trying to correct. Otherwise, you are just another idiot trying to install GTR parts because they are better.

Who said anything was "wrong" with the vq? The VQ is great normally aspirated. Just how nissan engineered and developed it to be. It does not have boost tho, and wasn't dressed up for boost from the factory. That's the VR. I'm not correcting anything. Why plug in aftermarket crap??? Better is subjective. If they fit, they fit. I'm just looking for an OEM route to plugging in turbos. Simple as that. The vq heads likely wont line up with the intake, and not ideal for boost. I mean, if the intake lines up then you could even use the vq heads in theory. I wouldn't run a stock vq head for boost tho. I's assume nissan dressed up the heads for boost too.

I don't know what parts you guys are looking at, but the ones im seeing all share the same core parts bin so far. Dude, it's nissan, not pagani. lol Are you familiar with the FM platform/chassis? the same chassis ALL RWD nissans have? Pretty sure the GTR also uses the same chassis.. in theory I could chop it down, and build a perfect altima from it. LMAO They did not develop a custom crankcase and block for the GTR, they just dressed it up as a "VR". Also note the factory nomenclature vQ vR. That's the thing with the GTR, its priced with exotics, but it's basically just a nissan parts bin special. FFS, they haven't even changed the powertrain in what? 15 years or something? Why do you think that is? Cause it costs too much for a failing nissan who is hanging by a thread to develop a bespoke motor or even chassis for the GTR. Lot of smoke and mirrors going on at nissan.

Rusty is an engineer who worked in the automotive industry. You make the VQ work with a vr38 you will be a instant millionaire. We will all be waiting for your claims to be reality.

That's cool. Sometimes I wish I did chem eng. I worked as a QCC/QCE for a while. Wanna see my lab?

Instant millionaire? I wish. What will probably happen: Countless people dump on me, tell me how dumb I am(haters hate when you do something before them that they never thought of that in hindsight is actually fairly obvious), then I do it, a few pat me on the back, then everyone else copies what I did, 10 years from now it's a "thing" and everyone forgets I ever even existed. LMAO That would be par. I don't see how I could profit here. I'm certainly not going to get into the part business. Especially parts that anyone could just call nissan to buy.
