Nissan has just announced their next car for the 2007 Super GT Championship will switching from a VQ30DETT engine to a VK45DE engine. The switch from a twin turbo 3.0L V6 to a naturally aspirated V8 is believed to be in response to Toyota’s 2006 Championship win using their SC430. Apparently there are fewer air restrictions when using a naturally aspirated engine as apposed to using forced induction. Either way it will be interesting to see the Nissan and Toyota compete both using NA V8s.
