What can I do with this engine?
I have a brand new 0 miles engine that I pulled out of a FX35. For some of you that know this is the engine out of the Infiniti that I crushed. The engine was completely intact and undamaged. The engine is an exact interchange to the 350z and g35 coupe. I figure I can experiment with this engine and then put my old engine back in it when I blow that engine or something like that. I have a few ideas but Ill take suggestions. What would you do with this engine if you had it?

About two weeks ago I crushed 21 nissans. 18 Muranos 2 Pathfinders and 1 FX35. Heres the link with pictures and all. I cant believe you Toykilla never saw that thread, you post on just about everything.

i would put some high compression pistons in there with some forged pauter rods, some bronze valve guides, and titainium retainers and titanium springs.
you can also try to stroke it using the new frontier's crankshaft and rods
also, can try to bore it out.

Without hurting anybodys feelings this is about ME. What I should do with this engine in my car. You guys crack me up.
How about maybe some guys in Dallas that want to use this motor to experiment and Ill put it in my car. Something like that would work wouldnt it?
Maybe a company trying to figure out a twin turbo setup like Jotech and learn with my engine and car. Thats what I mean. I could have sold the engine a while back when I put the crushing thread in, but I rather use for funner things.

Dude the fx35, they said it got 345 at the crank... There has to be some difference in performance/design...
If you need help with the boosting there are some good tuners in your area that have a proto-type Turbo Kit.
Did you take the suspension off the FX too... you could have had a four wheel drive Z.
Lastly, I dont mind working for you for a day and stealing some crushed car parts... Then you can fire me, without pay!!! Now theres no contract issues.
