2014 NISMO 370Z Update

At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Nissan unveiled the 2014 NISMO 370Z - a minor refresh. The NISMO 370Z's mechanics remain mostly unchanged; the engine still produces 350 hp (260 kW) but now includes Variable Valve Event and Lift Control to further enhance airflow into the combustion chambers.

Nissan has also added re-tuned suspension and chassis, and a new, more aerodynamic front bumper.

A new exterior color option is introduced - dark gray with red stripes - and Solid Red replaces Magma Red as one of the four color choices. Interior changes include a new steering wheel with Alcantara and red accents, and a new NISMO tachometer.

Happy Chinese New Year 2013

What so special on Suzuki F6A Engine?

Actually not so familiar with this Suzuki F6A engine, what I can see on wikipedia also is just stated that it us on Suzuki small truck, but lately it seem have quite a number of call looking for this engine gasket kit, it seem they put it into Alto, of course the old model.

I'm still wonder what is so special on this engine, is it a very powerful engine under their 550cc level? And it is also quite surprise to find out actually there are metal type of cylinder head gasket for this F6A engine, found the photo on the website but I don't think it can be found easily at Malaysia market.
