Are you sure?
Per Forged Performances tear down I see round ports (mostly), with flat top and bottoms, and the top is opened up for the fuel injector (it appears)
I think its just square runners so they could fit them closer together in the intake manifold by the throttle bodies.

Yea the upper plenum to lower runners is square. The GTR engine is not that different in shape from any other HR engine. If we could only see if a GTR intake would fit.... how cool would the looK ! The 3.8 is from longer stroke and it might only be a slight difference in head port shape.

EDIT: Here is the thread. Start from post #7.

Our current design will replace the upper manifold. It will bolt to the lower manifold which is pictured above. There are plans for a manifold that will replace both upper and lower manifolds which will bolt directly to the cylinder heads but we have not even started to design it yet.

Because the picture on our website is of an aluminum manifold for a VQ35DE. The stainless steel manifold for the DE motor (which we do sell) looks exactly like that except that it has more of a polished look. If there was no picture at all then you would be saying "how can they sell something without a picture?".
