the VG30E in the quest/villager is different than the one in other nissan vehicles
it is of a non-interference design

I like to get info from this forumn, but I also like sharing info I've found in the hopes it may help others. Some people are newbies, some are really knowledgeable, like Matt, and many others, and some are like me, sort of in-between. I sometimes put info out that I honestly feel will help others if they are using this forumn for information gathering.

Also, I see many repeated questions about the VG engine family, and I figure, why always repeat the same stuff over and over, and thus, I feel this info would make a good sticky.
