Rep Power: 0 I also heard that Nissan first considered a TT version of the VQ for the next Z and GTR but the car would not pass U.S. emission laws. The V8 is from the new Infiniti M class. If this becomes a reality how will Honda ever compete
Would be hot, hope the engine is reliable, cuz the Titan apparently is not lol. Titan got worst truck for 2005-2006, along with the Armada..Titan seems to have brake problems So maybe if its just an engine swap..it'll work.

There is brake recall..well, "service bulletin." It seems that Nissan can't quite figure out how to fix the problem. They have sent out 2 different sets of parts to pretty much rebuild the front braking system, and it has helped quite a bit. Everything is covered under warranty, but this still should not have happened.

I wouldnt really want a truck motor in a sports car.... there are exceptions, Ford GT, and I'm thinking Viper as well, but those cars dont really like to be revved, but I guess thats personal preference. 
I need TP for my bunghole

Rep Power: 360 My favorite engine of all time is:
Cast Iron 65 degree V12
4700 cc
5 valve per cylinder
11.3:1 compression ratio
513 hp at 8500 rpm
347 ft lbs torque at 6500 rpm
redline: 8500 rpm
(Anyone recognise this engine?)
I would take that car with that engine over anything else in the world. The Koenig 828.0 bhp 587 ft-lb twin turbo version is even better!
