Guess I have to make my own kit..... and I am not using that junk VQ35.... VQ30DE-K all day long.

I want my engine to outlast the body, not having to deal with oil consumption issues. Really if you investigate a little bit more.... most 3.5L swaps are not that impressive in the older Maximas, it takes alot of tuning and mods to make them impressive. I just did a swap for a friend of mine, plus cams, RevUP oil pump etc... feels slower than my 3.0L Maxima.

VG weights more than a VH45DE out of a G50 Q45. VG makes 160HP in the SOHC trim and even if you got the DOHC motor to bolt up, its soo big that it wouldn't fit in the engine bay. VG is a good motor, but not something you want in a Sentra.

VQ30s can be had for 100-500 bux, and they will last 300K miles without any issues.
