Q:
Looks like the VQ was again rated among the top 10 engine's by Ward's. According to the article below it seems Nissan is the first manufacturer to have a top 10 engine every year consecutively for 12 years. See SEMA eNews article below...

This engine is the reason why Nissan is making record profits as of late. If you make one solid engine, you can adapt it for many different applications. That's brilliant planning if you ask me!
Japan has even more VQ variants including a 2500cc and 3000cc version.
