Found this video (can't even remember where anymore) of a 350Z with a rebuilt VQ35DE (increased to 4.2L) and running the APS Extreme Twin Turbo kit.

While the peak power figure itself is impressive (850rwhp or around 640rwkW) its the shape of the power curve that's the most impressive. Its almost dead straight, and actually plateaus out in the top end.

Either way, its showing how much headroom the next GT-R will have the moment its released while maintaining a "streetable" power delivery (assuming its running a VQ, which the short odds say it will).

I was genuinely surprised when I saw that power figure after the dyno run. Those VQ engines sure have some potential. :nyaanyaa:

How's 1800hp for "potential"? :happy:

Since there are few V35s in Australia, this place hasn't been following the VQ engine that much. But there are plenty of VQ powered daily drivers pulling 500rwhp+ in the US, and the list of 350Zs and V35s with 380rwhp (with unopened engines) in Australia is growing.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
