People need to start blowing up these engines so we know what they can take. I don't know of a single busted VQ35 motor (aside from bluefish's with that ... 300 shot?) from forced induction or overrevving. Although I'm sure there must be a few somewhere.

 

I thought alll the 5at people w/fi were getting the ts flash so that the tranny shifts right and were achiveing this because of the rev limiter being raied to 7200? I would really like to know the real answer because I just purchased the vortech kit and was planing on this mod and info would definatly hepl!

 

reading through this topic makes me wondering if i raise my rpm to 7200, a stronger rod will be a good idea.but how about valv springs?
does it gonna do any goods?

 

this is an older thread, but yes i believe it can easily rev to 7200 anything above that will require some work though

 

Thats my maxima i believe you speak of. My cars a 96 max with about 200,000 miles on it. I take it there at least once a day and it sounds fine. Here are pics on maxima.org

I would think that a 350Z from 7000-7200RPM could rev there all day long the valvetrain of the Z is much lighter than the vq 30 but stroke limits it from going much higher.

 

D'0h!,
The tire's effective diameter is going to be less because when the wheel is loaded, the radius decreases due to tire deflection. That's probably why you recall 62mph at the top of 2nd gear.
