UPDATE 10
Car is ready to go, just waiting for the spacers to be machined ...
Going over this Friday for a test drive ... without hood

Save the manuals
When did you drop the car off? Seems like this was super quick lol. Enjoy the maiden voyage.

Dropped it of mid January, but they just started working on it late Feb. By the way, I sent them about 10 links from this site, helped a lot!

If all goes well and I can make it out tomorrow, we should see if we can find somewhere to see what the outcome of a J32 vs a J35 would be.
I'm thinking the advantage goes to you because of the weight difference between the cars(sedan vs Coupe/my audio setup) and me to you(possibly).
IF such is the case, there will have to be some type of re-match once my internals are done!

I'm a little fearful of the displacement disadvantage, and the fact that I haven't used 3 pedals since 2011
Ha HaLooking forward to hearing the new sound

You know, I don't think there is a huge disadvantage between the two.
The J32 is a faster engine, the J35 has more torque.
On paper the numbers may be in favour of the J35, but with the 6spd, I would say more often than not, in the same car, the J32 would probably take it. A 6spd J35 setup would be ideal, of course, and would make for a good comparison.
Save having the 6spd option on the J35, upgrading the internals I am hoping will increase the numbers for me.
Shoot me a text when you are making your way to the shop.
