I've been having a look at the VG30E, and it seems to justify further investigation ... then I found this Frankensteins MonZter
VG34ET

Ok, so I don't think I can afford the US$7k, but it does raise an interesting question - why not use it in my Z32?
Ok, heres how they do it:
VG33 from a 1996-1999 Pathfinder or 2000-2004 Frontier
Bore the engine out to 93mm and swap pistons with the VH45DE pistons, thats pretty much it!
Compression goes up from 8.8:1 to 9.7:1
Ok, theres probably some other hidden tricks, but there is a well known Z31 that made 579rwhp and 599lb/ft in this setup with next to no turbo lag!

Nice - I wander what sort of power a N/A engine would put down - you know some say you can't be cube's.
Yeah, I think it would be similar to the VG30DE up high with the DOHC flowing better, but down low the capacity should really make up for the loss up high
