Yep its the detuned version quite reliable but needs 5k km oil changes
not the bogus commonly adopted 10k km even by Ferrari.
The Feza version needs refresh every 50k km, main bearings and oil pump
which is normal for a race tuned NA engine making 500hp.
The VQ is lighter than the Buick v6 and makes more for less but I do
like the OHV buicks but Rover v8 needs $$$ to match modern turbo L4s.
VQ is a big thing though & at 175kg is similar to turbo SR20det weight
For sound the Maseratti M139 with non flat plane crank is insane
but fitting a datsun is a challenge for sure except in the back of
a ute where the rear diff/transaxle can also share the bed.
