Lockleaf Posted October 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 My greatest complaint about working on a vg is the random maze of coolant hoses at the backside of the intake. Total bullshit. If I ever had one in a toy vehicle, I would re design that whole assembly somehow. Quote Link to comment
mattyhacks71 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 In regards to the topic title. An engines beauty should be gauged by the ear, foot and seat of pants. The eye can be very deceiving. Why I love the SR20, doesn't look that great honestly, but I watched the local drifting every other weekend and man to they do work Quote Link to comment

ericsb210 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 ^^^Fine with me, as long as you don't mind a constant ear full of a scratchy chalk board screech, along with a lot of maintenance. Those engines, meh. Quote Link to comment
rsxse240 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 I'd run a built vg30/33et. The head design is perfect for high boost capabilities with so many head bolts there is almost no chance of lifting the head under boost. Quote Link to comment
lazarus223 Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well here's my engine bay for now!!! 95 ford ranger 3.0.. I'm running everything from factory in my 521.

KoHeartsGPA Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 This is my brother's rig, VG30 with well over 200k miles, doesn't use a drop of oil and runs like a champ, and he abuses the Damn thing.... Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted February 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 One of those isn't a vg30. The other didn't show the engine, which when shown, would still be terribly ugly. 2 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 No one is denying the stature of the VG30. It's a damned good motor. Argument is...its an ugly motor. For all intents and purposes, the only iteration of the VG that even looks halfway decent is the last of them; the VG30/33 that came in the Frontier, Xterra, and Pathfinder. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Each one of those would look so much better with the Pathfinder intake. Quote Link to comment
