Nissan S20 engine

Automotive Engines

The Nissan S20 is a 2.0 L straight-six, four-valve, double overhead camshaft engine produced by Nissan from 1969 to 1973 and originally designed by engineers of the former Prince company. It was the first mass-produced Japanese engine with more than two valves per cylinder. Essentially a revised production variant of the 1966 Prince GR-8 engine from the R380 racing car, it produces 160 hp at 7,000 rpm and weighs 199 kg. It powered the Skyline GT-R, in the C10 and C110 generations, and the Fairlady Z432, and should not be confused with the unrelated SR20 straight-four family.
