What do I need to do to get atleast 400 HP or hopefully over 600?

I don't know the viable options, but I want to make my g35x much faster and powerful. More than just adding a supercharger, cause I doubt that will get me as fast as I can be. I still want it to be drivable like it is now, just option for much more speed and power. I am interested in learning to build an engine also, so this might be a hobby I'd start. Money is not the main concern, but needs to be reasonable.

-Do they make aftermarket reinforced VQ35DE engine blocks and parts?
-Can I buy an engine not made for my car, and use it? I know it has to have clearance, but will it work with the other parts even if I modify them?
-Can I build a GM engine and use it in my infiniti, parts are more available I think.
-Can I use a Q45 engine? My dad has a Q45 and it has 340 hp, so it would be a better start over a normal g35 engine if it is my only option.

I DONT want to be told to do this with a better car choice, because g35 is the coolest car to be fast with unless this is impossible, then give me a better choice. Discuss.

Also should mention, I want it to look as normal as possible after its in there, I'm not into buying a bunch of kits and making it look like a fake hot wheels car.

You should check out the F/I section of the forum. I'm pretty sure you can make 400 hp using a turbo/TT kit easily using stock internals.

Would it fit and is it designed more for torque, or is that good anyway for a fast car?

Another thing, the guy I talk to says newer cars are designed at their limits, with less overhead, and that to modify one is limited because if you give it too much power it breaks. HE said this in general, not just for nissan engines.

Then you definitely need to install a flux capacitor along with the built titan engine

If you wanna make these kinds of gains, you should have bought a different car. Gs are expensive to mod. And remember, its a luxury car, its ment for comfort with a little sporty feel. If you wanted to go fast, get a ferrari.

I know its built for what it is, but I want to make it better and I can't afford a ferrari, and I've already got my g35 all paid off, so I just need to add in to make it faster.
