Trace out your bumper then figure out how far you want to go with it.

VQ35 Swap
I am doing an engine swap this year and I am looking at a VQ. When I was looking at prices the 03-04 is $2300, 05-06 is $3500 and 07 is about $2000. Why is the 07 so much cheaper, it does have dual throttle bodies and 310 hp. So wouldn't it be more or did they have problems with them or is the ECU harder to break than the earlier models.
