This Nissan Cefiro<\/a> arrived at Race Works PL<\/a> for an engine swap. The company removed the factory 2.4 L RB24S<\/a> inline-six and installed a turbocharged 1JZ-GTE inline-six. The motor features a custom 6-to-1 exhaust manifold, Garrett G30-720 turbocharger, Garrett 50 mm wastegate, Blitz intercooler, and 60 mm drive-by-wire throttle body. Race Works PL upgraded the fuel system with a custom tank, swirl pot, Walbro 450 lph pump, and 980 cc injectors. The combination produced a conservative 402 hp (295 kW) and 504 Nm (371 lb-ft) of torque on a Ecumaster EMU Black ECU. Behind the motor is an adapter plate, twin-disc clutch, and BMW GS5 five-speed manual transmission.<\/p>\n
