Aww hell I'll FP here. The J30 should have had a twin turbo version too. Just like the 300ZX. Since the motor in the J is related to the 300ZX I wonder if you could swap them?

J30 TT
Dude, really good idea, I would think it could handle it, and it sure as hell needs a couple turbos. I drive a 97 t, and it isn't that much faster than my 4 cyl VOLVO!!! So, twin turbos a yes...

Let me know when you put a twin turbo on your J, I'm sure it will only set you back 5 grand or so. The car is what it is, I get tired of people bitching about it. Take the 4 banger Volvo down a curvy road or on the highway and see if it keeps up with the J, I DOUBT IT!
The J wasn't made to be a 0-60 car, if thats what you want you are in the wrong class of car. But by all means, please spend the $$ and tell me how a TT works out and lets see how long you car runs for (not to mention trouble free) |

Really? well, i'm sorry if tick ya off about that, but think of it like this, when there's a need for a 4-door and ya dont have the 82k for a M5 it's nice that you can spend probably the 5g's on a j and have something (obviously not as fast as an m5) pretty damn sweet.
Ohh!!, but you messed with the v-vo, winding road, it can grab...now highways....ehh....it can hang with a bike (no engine on that bike of course), but he's a ladies car anyway....yea... Later, Timmy C. |

Didn't mean to sound so harsh but just trying to point out that the money in/performance out ratio would not be very good. I've asked a few people about putting a turbo on a J, including people from a "Z" club and they say its just not worth the $$. I would suggest getting a first generation Q45, there are still some good ones out there. Even though the 90 is rated at 278HP, the numbers were WAY UNDERESTIMATED, they make closer to 300HP and there are several upgrade packages out there!
I love my J30 and its a great car, but right now its my everyday car and I still have about a year to pay on it, after thats up THEN I start messing with it some. I'm in a debate with myself whether to keep it forever or sell it and get something like a 350Z, G35, I35, or a Altima. Only time will tell I guess! Jeff |

can't be done
Infortunately, it can't be done without actually modifying the engine bay itself. The VG30DETT doesn't fit into a USDM J30, and there is no room for the headers nor turbines. In the japanese version of the J30, they were able to somehow have more room because of the right hand driver style. I have seen turbos or the smaller Q45 v8 in side the j30 style j30 in japan. It really isn't worth the money like they've said. Find other ways to make J30 fast. I'm going with NOS.

The VH41DE is 270Kw stock and fitts.
I have a nissan made J30T with V8 1993 model I have a pic at www.510sss.com down the bottom of the page ,I think their is a engine bay pic as well. You need more than a WRX to pass me on the open road plus a GTR skyline has no guts at over 200Kph in stock trim.I know this cos a mate hasa R32 GTr and we went for a open road blast,he fast around town but not on the highway. Two turbo's ant enough |

In my above post I quoted the wrong quote....SORRY Jpalm.... I meant to quote this:

Re: J30 TT
if u want turbo, just sell the j30 and get the 300zx.
Youll sell and pay about the same price and break even. both are nice rides |
