Nissan VK Engine
The VK engine (formerly known as the ZH) is a V8 engine, V8 piston engine from Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Nissan. It is an aluminum DOHC Multi-valve#Four valves, 4-valve design. The VK engine was originally based on Nissan's ''Nissan VQ engine, VQ'' V6 rather than the ''Nissan VH engine, VH'' V8 used in previous Infiniti Q45, Q45/Nissan Cima, Cima models. Changes include: a variable intake manifold, newly designed heads, and a larger drive by wire throttle chamber. The intake manifold directs air through different paths at different engine speeds to optimise low-end torque or high-end horsepower. VK45DE The VK45DE was introduced in 2002 and is built in Yokohama, Japan. Bore and stroke is . Output is at 6,400 Revolutions per minute, rpm with of torque at 4,000 rpm. Redline is at 6,600 rpm.

Yokohama, Japan
is the second-largest city in Japan by population as well as by area, and the country's most populous municipality. It is the capital and most populous city in Kanagawa Prefecture, with a population of 3.7 million in 2023. It lies on Tokyo Bay, south of Tokyo, in the Kantō region of the main island of Honshu. Yokohama is also the major economic, cultural, and commercial hub of the Greater Tokyo Area along the Keihin Industrial Zone. Yokohama was one of the cities to open for trade with the West following the 1859 end of the policy of seclusion and has since been known as a cosmopolitan port city, after Kobe opened in 1853. Yokohama is the home of many Japan's firsts in the Meiji period, including the first foreign trading port and Chinatown (1859), European-style sport venues (1860s), English-language newspaper (1861), confectionery and beer manufacturing (1865), daily newspaper (1870), gas-powered street lamps (1870s), railway station (1872), and power plant (1882).

Torque
In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational analogue of linear force. It is also referred to as the moment of force (also abbreviated to moment). The symbol for torque is typically \boldsymbol\tau, the lowercase Greek letter ''tau''. When being referred to as moment of force, it is commonly denoted by . Just as a linear force is a push or a pull applied to a body, a torque can be thought of as a twist applied to an object with respect to a chosen point; for example, driving a screw uses torque to force it into an object, which is applied by the screwdriver rotating around its axis to the drives on the head. Historical terminology The term ''torque'' (from Latin , 'to twist') is said to have been suggested by James Thomson and appeared in print in April, 1884. Usage is attested the same year by Silvanus P. Thompson in the first edition of ''Dynamo-Electric Machinery''. Thompson describes his usage of the term as follows: Today, torque is referred to using d ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Drive By Wire
Drive by wire or DbW in the automotive industry is the technology that uses electronics or electro-mechanical systems in place of mechanical linkages to control driving functions. The concept is similar to fly-by-wire in the aviation industry. Drive-by-wire may refer to just the ground propulsion, propulsion of the vehicle through electronic throttle control, or it may refer to electronic control over propulsion as well as steering and braking, which separately are known as steer by wire and brake by wire, along with electronic control over other vehicle driving functions. Driver input is traditionally transferred to the motor, wheels, and brakes through a mechanical linkage attached to controls such as a steering wheel, car controls#Throttle control, throttle pedal, hydraulic brake pedal, parking brake#Pedal or pull handle, brake pull handle, and so on, which apply mechanical forces. In drive-by-wire systems, driver input does not directly adjust a mechanical linkage, instead th ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Intake Manifold
An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinder (engine), cylinders. The word ''manifold (engineering), manifold'' comes from the Old English word ''manigfeald'' (from the Anglo-Saxon ''manig'' [many] and ''feald'' [repeatedly]) and refers to the multiplying of one (pipe) into many.manifold, (adv.) "in the proportion of many to one, by many times". AD1526 ''Oxford English Dictionary'', In contrast, an exhaust manifold collects the exhaust gases from multiple cylinders into a smaller number of pipes – often down to one pipe. The primary function of the intake manifold is to ''evenly'' distribute the combustion mixture (or just air in a direct injection engine) to each intake port in the cylinder head(s). Even distribution is important to optimize the efficiency and performance of the engine. It may also serve as a mount for the carburetor, throttle body, fuel inje ...

Nissan Cima
The is a Luxury vehicle, luxury Sedan (automobile), sedan manufactured and marketed by Nissan across five generations for the Japanese market — and for three generations as the Infiniti Q45 internationally. The ''Cima'' nameplate derived from Spanish language, Spanish for "summit" or "top." Earlier generations featured a hood ornament with an image of an Acanthus (genus), acanthus leaf that gave the Nissan Laurel its name. The acanthus leaf was commonly used by Ancient Greece, classical Greeks to make a wreath for use as a Crown (headgear), crown — notable, as the Cima's chief competitor in the Japanese Domestic market was the Toyota Crown. The Cima in its first two generations was a more luxurious and larger version of the Cedric and Gloria, with the Cima sharing its V8 engine with the earlier flagship Nissan President, President, Nissan's competitor with the Toyota Century. The Cima was introduced in 1988, based on an elongated Cedric/Gloria chassis. With its sale ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Nissan VQ Engine
The VQ is a family of V6 automobile petrol engines developed by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Nissan and produced in displacements varying from 2.0 L to 4.0 L. Designed to replace the Nissan VG engine, VG series, the all-aluminium Multi-valve, 4-valve per cylinder DOHC design debuted with Nissan's EGI/ECCS fuel injection#Multi-point injection, sequential multi-point fuel injection (MPFI) system. Changes from the VG engine include switching to a timing chain from a timing belt, and relocating the water pump from the outside of the engine to inside the timing cover where the pump is driven by the timing chain. Later versions featured various improvements, such as variable valve timing, and NEO-Di designated VQ engines replace MPFI with petrol direct injection, direct fuel injection. The VQ series engine was honored in a record 14-straight selections by Ward's 10 Best Engines from the list's inception until 2008. Versions 1st gen (1994-) * VQ20DE * VQ25DE 1st DE series VQ20D ...

Piston Engine
A reciprocating engine, more often known as a piston engine, is a heat engine that uses one or more Reciprocating motion, reciprocating pistons to convert high temperature and high pressure into a Circular motion, rotating motion. This article describes the common features of all types. The main types are: the internal combustion engine, used extensively in motor vehicles; the steam engine, the mainstay of the Industrial Revolution; and the Stirling engine for niche applications. Internal combustion engines are further classified in two ways: either a spark-ignition engine, spark-ignition (SI) engine, where the spark plug initiates the combustion; or a compression-ignition engine, compression-ignition (CI) engine, where the air within the cylinder is compressed, Adiabatic process, thus heating it, so that the heated air ignites fuel that is injected diesel engine, then or hot-bulb engine, earlier.''Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach'' by Yunus A.
