wow im glad this thread delivers! didnt mean it for it to be a stupid question, i was really thinking about it. GFN's post about just changing the chassis instead of engine screwed with my brain, i'll admit that. im still keen on turning the 370GT into a fully equipped V series GTR, that means hello vr, see ya later vq. TT on a vq technically still makes it a GTR, just not as capable as a TT vr.

the most hp gained from a vq g37 is thru the GTT format, a large single turbo giving 651 hp output, i guess the physics just works better for better hp gains with a single turbo Vq. g37tampa, or g37stampa...either or, has that hp and setup

EDIT: its G37Stampa, he's on this forum, just search him out and check out his work with a single turbo...
ya know it just leads me to believe that the best HP gains from a VQ G37 is through a GTT setup using a single large turbo. twin turbo VQs havent achieved that level of HP, although close at 611HP. im guessing the tuner knows the engine has a certain threshold of forced induction from 2 turbos before it explodes, so they dont push the boost on the VQ, but the same amount of boost from a single turbo could be more feasible for higher HP gains without the VQ going kablooey. idk really, its a hypothesis, we would need comparative studies on single turbo and twin turbo g37s..but i have never heard or seen a VQ g37 hit 651 HP on twin turbos, although G37Stampa's single turbo manages to output 651HP

There's another dude in Russia who has the actual R35 GTR by placing the RB in a V35 chassis making it the true R35 GTR. His contribution to the infiniti/skyline/GTR world is definitely somewhere in the twin turbo thread

HowStuffWorks "Four-wheel Drive Differential"
I thought this was the section for noobs to the forum, not noobs to life.

great picture, i see its a no without further installments, ie you would need a transfer case installed for one, thanks for the info
