VQ37VHR first gen G35?
GTM said that the VQ37VHR drivetrain and powertrain bolts up to first gen G35s and the wiring is for the most part is plugnplay with only a few changes in the wiring harness to make it all work.
There is also a rumor that the VQ37 can be stroked to 4.7 liters vs the 4.2 liters VQ35s. And there is also talk that a 4.7 liter VQ37 can deliver ~450+HP at
the wheels naturally aspired.
Has anyone so far with a first gen swapped in the VQ37VHR?

Every accessory on the HR engine is in a different location. Nissan sport magazine is doing a VQ35HR swap in a DE right now, it's a pain for them but the only reason they are doing it is because it allows them to stay in their current stock class and to be more competitive against the GXP and other cars.

The thing is that if all goes well for me and the shop where I had my exhaust done I can swap it in myself with very little money.
I decided that it is something to look into. It's not a bad price considering some people spend that money on brakes or a suspension setup.

We will be charging $5450 for the swap, this will cover the removel and reinstall of the engine with the wiring work needed. This amount is only for labor, parts are not included .

I understand and I agree that the VVEL is the future and you can't beat having the perfect cam timing all the time, and that is why the 370z does so well out the box.
Now, installing the VHR engine in different platform is doable, And acutely it is getting easier to do everyday, since we are depending more and more on the factory ECU to tune these cars, the one thing is finding a VHR engine cheap enough to make this more cost effective, Over a year and half ago when the G37 wasn't even out yet, we paid over 8K just for the VVEL engine (complete crate engine from Nissan ) so we can start our R&D. I'm sure there are more VVEL engine available right now for a lot cheaper.

My favorite swap will be putting the new VVEL V8 engine in a 350z. I think That's alot of fun.
