Nissan Ve EngineThe VE engine is a 3.0 L V6 piston engine from Nissan. It is a derivative of the Nissan VG engine and was only used for a few years. It is an aluminum and cast iron DOHC 4-valve design with variable timing control and a variable intake system. A major difference between the VE and VQ engines is the heads. The low underhood clearance on the Maxima demanded a special head to be developed with 30°, rather than 46°, between the valves. Lack of space also demanded a redesigned camshaft drive system, so a special chain drive was developed. This, in turn, demanded a new engine block. VE30DE The 3.0 L (2960 cc) VE30DE produces 190 hp (142 kW) and 190 ft.lbf (258 Nm). It was built from July, 1991 through March, 1994. It is used in the following vehicles: See also VE
