GTM VQ35DE -> VQ35HR Swap!

[GTM]

Although this is a G35 forum I figured this project would be relevant in case anyone had thoughts of putting an HR engine in your G, yes it can be done! We are currently in the process of doing so if anyone would like some additional information please feel free to PM me or call me at the shop, enjoy!


Post on My350z:

We received a phone call one day from a client in Germany who wished to build a 1000hp car that would tear up the autobahn and still be somewhat street-able, and he wanted that car to be a 350Z.

We are glad he choose us to reach his goals this is a very fun and interesting project, trying to build a well balanced street-able 1000whp car won't be easy but we love challenges.

We started the project by locating a clean 350Z to modify for the customer, which once completed will be transported to his home town in Germany.

This car will be fitted with a non-sleeved 4.2L stroked HR block with a Stage 5 GTM Twin Turbo system, engine management will be controlled by the FCon Vpro. This car is truly a complete build, from brakes to the aero kit we are doing it all on this car, we are sure the client will be very satisfied with the end result.

I will be updating the thread as the car progresses and keep everyone updated, if you have any questions please feel free to ask!

We will be offering this service to future customers who wish to upgrade their engines to the HR blocks, please PM or call me at the shop with any questions.

sweet that is gonna be sick

ey by the way what is your website url?

[iiiiiekoiiiii]

THATS AN insane project.

Only thing that makes me think. WHY not Just do an LS2 swap and build up with turbo. It'd be so much easier to squeeze the power out.

and Can u pM me just an HR swap for an 06 g35x pricing, if it's capable of fitting in there. cause I know our front end is Messy and not spaceful.

Can't wait to see the project come along

Crazy project. Why not just swap a LS-1 or LS-7, build it and turbo. Seems to be easier, sound better and cost alot less.

Sounds awesome! Just wondering, what will ever happen if the car breaks or something, if i spent that much money on a 1000hp car id be shipping the GTM crew to my euro pad to fix it haha

If he's buying a new car, why wouldn't he buy an 07 Z with this motor already in it? It has to be cheaper?

[Skaterbasist]
