Is it possible to fit a stage 3 A/R .66 turbo into my 03 350z (vq35de) , is there enough space in the engine bay?

I sure hope you're not talking about some cheap eBay crap like this...

That's exactly what I'm referring to Rude, if I put one in my car should I expect it to blow up in about a minute or so? I don't exactly have $6k sitting around for a quality turbo because I'm prob younger than you think.

There is only one thing to know in situations like this.... If you can't do it right the first time, DON'T DO IT!!

It'll will cost you more in the long run. Save your money, and do it right the first time.

What if I got the kit and put a real branded nice turbo on it, is that logical?

For the love of god, People should be banned for making these threads, there is one just like this posted every three days. Close this please.

I don't get whats so hard about using the SEARCH button, finding answers, using common sense to realize EBAY BRAND is not what you should be buying for your car.

OP:
"Hi I just got a Z and my friends tell me it'd be cooler if I got a TURBO! I guarantee i'd get so much POON with that BOV sounds."

REALITY:
If your first inclination was to go to Ebay and type the words Turbo 350Z, Bad things are in the future of your car.

Yeah, I saw some of Forge's work on here not so long ago and judging by the photos these two tools were the most used on the build.

That kit you linked is not even a specific kit, its just a bunch of universal pipes and a crap turbo from china. Even if you bought the cheapest kit (godspeed) and replaced the turbo with a better one, had basic fuel and tuning mods you'd be probably a little over $4k. That's just the very basic stuff and you'd still have a semi-crappy setup.

to even find a decent brand used kit and proper supporting mods and tuning you'd probably be in the $5-6k range...

If your budget it seriously only what that cheap piping kit is, then don't even attempt it. I wouldn't attempt it regardless if you really don't have an understanding of this car or even cars in general as you'll only cause yourself problems.
