vq37 for sale PRICE DROP
 
I'm selling the vq out of my 370 to do an engine swap. The engines still in the car and has 2300ish kms on it, I did the full slow break in of 2000km/1600mi and did an early oil change at 1000kms. The engine comes with everything attached to it except the tranny, including my stillen headers, gtm resonated test pipes and the greddy ti-c. This things in brand new condition and well taken care of. I don't know if its a bit early to sell one of these but maybe someone with a 350z might want it

PRICE 5000USD OBO

Car will be located in socal where the swap will be taking place

frost 10-06-2009 10:12 PM

Looking for a particular price, or just going to see what "bids" you get in?

M.Bonanni 10-06-2009 10:19 PM

Man if only I had money...

:(

To the poster...try contacting companies like Cosworth or Brian Crower. Maybe they will want to buy one for parts development if they don't have one already.

travisjb 10-06-2009 11:05 PM

oh and of course, we want to know what you have planned for your engine swap !!!!

lsx maybe?

travisjb 10-06-2009 11:12 PM

the only other swap I can think of is that german racing team that put in a 35 w/ sequential trans

1uk32 10-06-2009 11:31 PM

Yeah I'll come up with a price tomorrow or the day after I just mainly wanna see if I can find anyone that's interested cause I don't wanna have it lying around my garage after the swap. Also the engine swap I'm planning on doing is a vh45de bored out with custom internals, I want a unique n/a build

I bought one for $9K a few months back to give you a sense for dealer pricing. I think about 2/3 that would be a reasonable price from a private seller. Won't be easy to unload, but worth a try.

travisjb 10-06-2009 11:41 PM

by the way, running this thing n/a, what is your hp/torque target ? starts below 300hp right ?

Alright, I give, help me out Travis, doesnt the vh45de have less HP than ours? Why make the switch to it?

travisjb 10-06-2009 11:46 PM

yeah, i think we just crossed posts... i've heard that can be dangerous !

motor starts <300hp, but guessing the OP will build it out substantially... and there is a pretty mature market for these motors given usage in imsa and other racing series

1uk32 10-06-2009 11:46 PM

I was talking to someone with a 5L vh45 in his 300zx, he was having some cam problems and was making 420hp and I forget what the torque was 360ish maybe

1uk32 10-06-2009 11:54 PM

Haha cold dense air ftw, too bad the elevation sucks

travisjb 10-07-2009 12:02 AM

and maybe try running it on oil sands !

travisjb 10-07-2009 12:04 AM

one more thought before i sign off for night night... please start a build journal in the member's gallery section! we want to see how you mount and want to hear about the rebuild etc... thanks!

RCZ 10-07-2009 01:02 PM

awesome....this would be a good buy for a tuner that wants to do a full build....

Zat_Zuma 10-08-2009 02:25 PM

I'm interested .....Pm me and we can chat next time your in town.

rednek01 10-08-2009 02:56 PM

there is no replacement for displacement!

1uk32 10-09-2009 05:17 PM

Price added 7000usd obo

kannibul 10-13-2009 07:09 PM

I wonder if I could fit that in my Civic. (lulz intended)

Good luck with the sale - might want to post it on other VQ37VHR engine using sites too...

FuszNissan 10-13-2009 07:18 PM

7k is a fair deal. 10k brand new.

Supracrazy 10-15-2009 09:04 AM

they go for 3 grand less on ebay.

Mike 10-15-2009 09:05 AM

you might also try advertising at HybridZ

nogoodname 10-15-2009 09:12 AM

or wait out and drop in the 5.6L thats coming out next year from the M's


if that can even fit in...lol

1uk32 10-15-2009 01:23 PM

Well the 5.6 from the titan fits with no cutting involved, its been put in a few 350z's and g35's so that swap is tempting too. And yeah I'm sure you could get an engine out of a wreck off ebay for cheaper

nogoodname 10-15-2009 01:37 PM

TT that 5.6L..... that would be so crazy....lol

1uk32 10-26-2009 11:19 AM

Bump... Price drop. 5000obo

a vq35 or vq37?

and why did you piggy back on the OPs thread to sell your stuff instead of starting your own thread? do you know the OP?

The Collector 11-16-2009 08:53 AM

Not meaning to thread jack, but I didn't expect to see this kind of stuff when I joined this forum. I am going to post this up with some of my Nissan buddies to try and help this sale along. I wonder if this would fit in my 260? Hmmmm..

Anyway, good luck with the sale, and the build.

minimize number of threads... and vq37. i figured he was trying to sell a full longblock with extras so he wouldn't mind the mention of just a block with heads and pan :: shrug ::
