as a fellow VQ35DE owner, i highly recommend replacing the OEM oil gallery gasket with an EPS tuning piece, nissan uses a paper gasket and it leads to low oil pressure issues in the future, also you should consider a rev-up oil up upgrade. 👀
Glad you still play Rio, reminds me of losing my dog few years ago and binge watching ur vids all night because I was too bummed too sleep. Got her back next day so gives me good vibes now.
My junkyard keeps saying theres a difference in compatibility in a 03 g35 sedan and my 04 g35 coupe. Ive dont a lot of research and 03-06 non rev ups are all the same entirely between coupes and sedans or am i missing something. Both are rwd
So you still doing the replacement of the g35 engines and what part of the world are you in... I'm having some rattling going on in my motor on startup and now it's starting to knock at idle.. and we've already replaced the timing chain iand guides . I'm hoping to rebuild with upgrades.. or buy motor upgrade it and then swap.
@@kinpump4696 as for the engine (auto engine into 6speed car) yes just change the flex plate for flywheel. If you're talking trans swap it is possible yet you have to find out are the trans mounting areas are the same, length, etc
Hey guys I recently swapped a 350z vq into my g35 and I am having a crank no start problem I tried putting the exu from the z in there but it is getting no spark or fuel it has the 350 wiring harness on it still and I am half way from taking it off too put the g35 harness back on but I’m not sure if they are the same or not if you guys have any suggestions please let me know
I believe we covered it in the video, but pulling the trans with the engine puts you at serious risk of damaging the power steering lines on the back of the cross-member. Also, removing the harness from the entire engine instead of unplugging the ECU is a ton of extra work for no reason.
Doing a swap on my 04 coupe do I need to do anything other than just swap the harness or will I need a new tune or anything? Guessing No. also is it worth it to order from a Jdm shop and get a low mileage engine or find something off of Facebook like you said? Thanks!
No tune needed, just plug and play! Just be careful of the power steering lines on the back of the crossmember. It's hard to find a decent deal on Facebook or anywhere these days, so, I'd just get a low mileage one with a warranty. If you look at my channel, we recently put another engine in this same car, unfortunately lol
Hey so my team and I were experimenting i previously blew the engine on my 350z automatic, so we swooped one in, the problem is that it turns on but the car shakes I was wondering if you could tell me what that could possibly mean
Bad engine mounts, trans mounts? Shakes when it's running or what? If it's when it's driving it probably needs an alignment. It might be misifirng. There's a lot it could be
Doubt it. If you used the same year and type. If you didnt use the same year research the difference you might have different impedence with sensors with different years etc (using a like year cpu could be the problem)..yet 1st things 1st check your crank and cam sensors they are know for going bad (some nissans have a recall my 01 sentra had a recall n they replaced it in 2018) Is there a check engine code?
The font end was held on by two bolts... Also I know the way I do it is "the long/wrong way" but I have never once had a smooth subframe drop on a g35.
I just wanna let you know... I tried the subframe drop instead this week... What a joke. Shit was wayyyy harder and I had to disconnect the power steering and AC. Never again 😂
Go like and follow Shane and his company. Without his help the G would not have been saved so soon!

Nice. Can you use an LS engine from a truck? What exactly do you need? Obviously, an engine, transmission and an ecm or ecu. Anything else?
Dam death trap, Between the tie rods and the bellhousing.... 💀
Hell yeah some Rio for the boys. Sick.
At least you found a place to work on the car.
And someone to do the work
Yoooo that the same thing happened to me 😮 now I’m fanna swope engine
Did you use the old harness already that was in the car before
Yes. That's why we swapped it to the new engine.
Oh ok doing an auto swap into a 6speed car
@@cambosaysay598 is that possible?

About swapping the 4.0 VQ from the Nissan Pathfinder or Xterra to this 3.5 same bock that would be a stroker VQ

Check your crank and cam sesnors
Thank you for this - i just did the same swap as you and i’ll be checking these sensors this weekend
Can you pull the whole motor and trans out with the harness ?

Also, removing the harness from the entire engine instead of unplugging the ECU is a ton of extra work for no reason.
Isnt the cam sensor the same part number or almost the same part is the crankshaft sensor
Almost. The bolt is 90 degrees off

@@BradenCarlsonAutos I ended up ordering a JDM one with a warranty, what was the culprit of the engine failing gonna watch the video as well! Thanks!

Im looking for a replacement engine for my g35 coupe where should i get it from i live in nj btw
The cam sensor and crank sensor are not the same the crank sensor does not have a rubber o ring
Otherwise, they are close enough that it will work interchangeably just like it did in this video lol.
What's the best engine for a 2017 Infiniti g35 hard to find
There's no such thing as an Infiniti G35, so I can see how that might be difficult lol
approximately how much to spend???
Y u no keep clutch?
It was completely cooked and the one on the new engine looked brand new. It has an aftermarket flywheel, too.
Can you tell me where did you order the engine i blue the motor on my 2004 g35
And you said 400 dollar engine im only seeing them for 1800 plus
@@greenjay3158 I paid $400 for an engine with a manual transmission. It was listed on Facebook marketplace. They aren't this cheap anymore.
Where did you find your engine, I have a 05 Infiniti G35 sedan? I need another engine.

@@BradenCarlsonAutos okay thanks for the reply, I'll check there. I appreciate it the info.
Did u have to reset ecu after swap
Not sure what you mean. It was unplugged and unpowered the whole swap so if it wad going to reset I assume it would have.
