trust us when we say it will be much cheaper to just build a vq for 500-600whp
600whp ~ 14K
v8 swap with everything working
about the same if not more, and that doesnt include building it or turbos.

you need to stop taking examples from video games where motor swaps are like "1500 credits"

The Stroker Kits/ Head work becoming available for the VQ35 are looking attractive for getting good NA numbers. I would explore that path further before going down the road of a V8 swap.

It's only "rediculous" because you are too scared to try something different from what Sport Compact Car magazine or Import Tuner magazine tells you to do.
Farggin' sheep **** me off. If the dude wants a V-8 Z let him have his fun.
And what the **** does "rediculous" mean. I swear that stupid Hooked on Phonics stuff has ruined the youth. That and MTV....
