I thought we started answering that question in your previous thread?

I don't think anyone has modified the DD to a great extent, most guys would have gone for the 3.5 manual as a performance base. Would you like some pics of the swirl valves I believe hinder power production? I could possibly supply you with a modified runner if you wanted to give it a try, but you will need an Emanage Ultimate or similar to realize any gains.

Shame you are so far away, I could help with most of the performance mods required, even the Stagea turbo manifolds could bolt up for high compression e85 turbo fun. ;)

GM = General Motors.

LS - a series of V8 engines produced by GM ranging in capacity from 4.8L to 7.0L

T56 = 6sp manual transmission built by Borg Warner, often used on the above engines.

Anything can be done with enough $$..

Nothing much man EGR valve blocks plenums mods, can be modified but car will not like it. Vq25DD is not a performance engine it is a economy orientated engine with slight but of grunt. There maybe some things they made for the VQ25DD enhine in the stag but not much and good luck. Im doing a engine conversion on my 250GT later this year.

If you want power get a VQ35 f**k the RE4/5 auto box out and replace it with Z33 manual and replace hat gay open diff with the R200 V VLSD from a manual 350Z....then its endless mods man.

Oh btw VM35AU facebook page join it

Still a weak ass engine though.

The VQ30det is good for well over 400kw stock.

I prefer the 4 door personally, not because it looks better, but because it's unassuming. You would never get pulled up in it, unlike the coupe. There are too many down here with blacked out tail lights and bald 20 inch rims. You are ruining it for yourselves.

looks like your trying to mod the wrong engine, as most of the boys above have already said. motor in the bin, 2J in. Has that even been done before?

Been done

Google is your friend.

G35 2jz

Coupes are still very unassuming to the local constabulary compared to your usual suspects like Silvia, evos ect

Personally Don't really care about everyone else not looking to be a traffic light hero and coupe looks a lot less maxima like.

Plus any crazy conversion is retardedly hard to get legal in most states

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
