Character
VR38DETT
"GT-R R35. Hand-built V6. Incredibly strong internals. Transmission (GR6) is the weak link not engine. Oil changes critical. 800hp+ builds on stock engine common."
HR15+motor e-Power
"Note/Qashqai/X-Trail e-Power. Series hybrid — engine only generates electricity. No gearbox. Smooth. Engine runs at optimal RPM. Very efficient. New tech but promising."
