| V6 3L - Nissan VQ30DE - Mileage Improvement Hi Mates One of our family friends owns a premium luxury car that is powered by The 3.0 L (2987 cc) VQ30DE engine.   Specs: bore and stroke of 93 mm and 73.3 mm respectively compression ratio of 10.0:1. It produces 193 PS (190 hp/142 kW) to 230 PS (227 hp/169 kW) @6400 rpm and 205 to 217 ft·lbf (278 to 294 N·m) @4400 rpm. The VQ30DE was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list from 1995 through 2001. It is an aluminum open deck block design with microfinished internals and a relatively light weight. Happy Areas: This Engine Rocks its performance with the best pick-up and fuel efficiency of 10KMPL on Highways. Pain Areas In City we are hardly acheiving 6 KMPL..... Is there any way we can improve the mileage of this car.... Please help out... |
