Here in the UK We get a few JDM V35 Skylines, in 4dr 2.5 auto, that were brought over as cheap normie cars. We also have a lot of very rusty 350z. Instead of turboing my e46, I’d love to 3.5 6sp swap a V35 with the GT Rays, Brembos & Bose sounds. I’m also on the minority that loves the sound of an NA VQ.

YOOOOO MIKE!!! Man I just randomly looked for a G35 Auto/Manual swap and yours came up!!! Im a follower now brotha!!! Hope all is well!

The only wiring that needed to be done was for the starter inhibitor and the reverse sensor. Everything else worked as it should. Not sure where the g35 picks up its speed reading from but it's not from the transmission.
