I used a high-output alternator from JS Alternators for my setup. Since I’m running a VQ30DET, I used one from a ’96 Nissan Maxima.

Important: Make sure to tell them that the power post needs to be on the backside of the alternator—not on the side. They originally sent mine with the post on the side, and I had to ship it back for modification. Once they moved it to the rear, it fit perfectly.

Also, make sure they send you the 2-pin plug connector, not the 3-pin version they initially sent me.

The Radium Engineering VQ35DE top-feed fuel rail setup fits perfectly under the stock VQ30DET intake manifold when using 33mm top-feed injectors of your choice.

You can route the fuel lines either direction — out the front (like factory) or out the back. I’m going with -8 lines for feed and return and a -10 crossover at the rear.

The only modification needed is to trim a small bump-out section on the lower intake manifold (pictured).

I’ve already done a test fit, and everything lines up nicely.
