V6 ?

Postby Kestral » Tue Jun 24, 2014 8:06 pm

Just wondering is the Nissan VQ40DE V6 a cast iron or steel sleeved motor or is another process used on the block walls?

I believe it has cast iron sleeves. In the GT-R, they did away with the sleeves and used a sprayed plasma coating in the cylinder bores.
