Most cost effective way to make 400whp from a vq35de


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, 

As the title states what is the most cost effective way to make 400whp from a vq35de in a V35 skyline chassis. I'm looking at all available options even an engine swap, price is a major factor. 

Cheers.

Cheapest way? Spray.

A wet kit with 200hp jets could be up and running for less then $2000. Then its about $16 per pound when its time to refill your bottle. 

 

Ok sorry I should rephase my question. But good answer haha. 

How can I make 400whp that isn't using nitrous.

Whats your budget? Maybe call Nispro in QLD for quote - they build a lot of VQ and have a turbo kit in development - but id say at least 20k to do it right - oh actually maybe do LS swap will be cheaper but....hmm  im a purist - so id rather stick to VQ35DE or whats the point lol.... just my opinion - do what u want. its your car

a blower on 6-8psi on ethanol is the easiest way. Anything more is rods and pistons.
Contact East Coast Customs as they are all over above combo

@Blakeo the first link by @robbo_rb180 above takes you to their site, and they have a "chat" feature. Sounds like the perfect people to ask. I was a little disheartened that their Nissan page was a little sparse.
