i want to put the vq35 heads on my vq30 in my maxima with 5 speed. what needs to be done or what other assesories will i need?

i will be getting all this from my spare vq35 outta a g35.

i plan on going turbo so i would like the lower comp. and the better flowing heads and more agressive cams.

thnaks, joe

i am not positive but I dont think they are interchangable. why not just get the full vq35 and do a swap

Well in THEORY...you would have to bore out your block...but since I know almost nothing about the VQ...I'm not sure if the VQ30 block can handle that...

I'd just go with a VQ35 swap...much more straight forward and less messing around...although if you had the time and money (if it hasn't been done yet that is) it would be a VERY interesting project.
