I know..It's a beast of a little engine having test drove one. But this engine should not be a surprise because Nissan has been making some of the best engines in the world for decades now...even better than Honda and Toyota I dare say.
Very true. I'm a "Honda guy" but in terms of HP VS Displacement Toyota and Nissan have generally been better over the years. Over all I think Japanese cars are just better engineered. Today's domestics may now be on par in terms of build quality/reliability/etc. , but it's taken them a long time to catch up, and it will also take a while to see if it's true. In time we'll see if today's domestics "outlast" todays imports.
AWESOME!! Nissan keeps impressing me! The only thing I dont understand is how they say that the CVT "shifts" but aren't CVT's supposed to have an infinite number of gears, thus they dont "shift"????
I'm not sold on the looks yet, but the engineering (Especially a 1.6L Turbo with Direct Gas Injection that puts out 180 Hp) is very impressive!

@tom11zz884 Maybe the best Jap engine.. Chevy and Dodge beat any Jap car by a longshot.

@Zero82nd I agree, those companies make such good engines, that the market fully supports them so they didn't need a government bailout. Oh wait...

Come on Nissan, put a turbo in the QR and use this setup in the new gen of the SE-R Spec V.
