Actually, the 3.5 V6 in the Nissan vans are detuned 350Z engines. They're tuned more for gas mileage and torque over that of the 350z which is for power, torque and the fun of revving the hell out of it.

LOL! not.

The 350Z shares the 3.5l VQ engine with the Altama, Maxima, G35 coupe & sedan, and the V6 versions of Nissans AND Infiniti’s SUVs. NO Toyota car uses this engine.

Also the fact that all these cars use this engine says something about it. Basically that being that it an awesome engine that is very flexible in every regard.

On a side note, dynos of the G35, 350Z and maxima have shows a much smaller difference in HP between the different platforms. Meaning Nissan is way under rating the horse power for the "lower" models. They are all making HP closer to the 300 mark then the 250.

whoops, accidently said toyota instead of nissan in my post up there, remind me not to post when im half asleep next time

I wasnt trashing that it was a van engine, its jsut a fun fact that many people might not know. It shows how flexiable these engines are made, and can be used for numerous applications
