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

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
