Nissan obviously had different engineering teams designing RBs and VGs...

yep. the same team that did the later subaru boxer...

stuff organised btw.

Morning Mangs,

The VG was considered one of the top ten engines in the world for a long time. I don't think the RB ever made the list.

Just saying...

Edit: Wait, I was wrong, that was the VQ not the VG. Please proceed with the VG engine out jokes.

From all reports it is a little beast of an engine, with the earliest VG30DET Redtop (mine) being the pick of the bunch. The heads flow better on the single turbo model, and the latter silvertop version didn't make as much power due to emmissions laws.

However, the engineering team clearly put no thought at all into making it easy (or even just not stupidly hard) to work on, unlike the RB.

It's actually not too bad on the engine out front (oil filter issues aside :P), there's plenty of room in front of the engine in the 31 spec engine bay. But having to pull the whole bloody thing apart to do anything is a PITA.

Legend, Thanks!

Ute obtained! I loves the interwebs, put a couple of messages out and BOOM! it's done.

Shame you sold the Sex-F, there would be no classier way to move house.

An excellent question, I assumed my work filter had decided to block it.

Will investigate when I get a chance.

SexF was great for moving house, moved all my sh*t including everthing in the garage, furniture, etc in a handful of trips.

    • Oh yeah that would work excellent. Should be the same diff housing & everything. Shoot me a text or call me 260-750-2246 -Cody 
    • Oh right, I didn't realise it was your car. Please do! Makes me feel better about mine. I also have a big scrape on the front left bumper where someone presumably used the wall to guide the car into a parking spot  But somehow all the funds go towards mechanical things and the cosmetics stay forever unfinished... Interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. But after seeing @PranK's rusty roofline on the BMW I'd probably leave it alone. Wouldn't want water to get in there.
    • Thanks mate, thought you might know the answer.     
    • Infiniti US are teasing a manual Q50 as a way to refresh a (very old) model. https://torquecafe.com/manual-performance-sedans-arent-dead-yet/ Can't be too technically difficult given the Z has the same motor with a manual gearbox......here's hoping there is a JDM version we can import here, that would save me a world of headaches
