They also have two VIAS vs one in the older gens. The only issue that seems to be popping up now is in the process of upgrading everything, Nissan messed with the HG and some newer VQ35DEs have a slow HG seep. Nothing major, and unless you're anal about your car like me, probably won't ever cause any issues. Other than that my VQ35 was a great motor and I wish I kept it!  |
thats what i was having problems with, it seemed like my timing was off and i had some problems with the cam position sensors
the vq35 is probably one of my favorite engines(besides the VQ37 of course), fast, torquey, sexy sounding
