Hi everyone, i bought an AWD VQ35DE for my 2005 G35 sedan RWD. So far we’ve swapped the bottom and mid oil pans from the RWD engine to the AWD. We also exchanged the motor mounts. As of now we’re connecting the transmission to the engine which is really, really tough. I guess what i’m looking for is a sense of hope that this will all work out. Will everything line up? Will the electric starter be able to contact the flywheel? are all of the fitments correct? thank you

 

Just to verify, your '05 is an automatic transmission correct? The 6 speed uses a different motor (both VQ35DE but 6MT one is the "rev-up" motor).
