What was their end game?

Trips

To fail horribly and end up in 18th place behind countless v8s
>>15741009
Yet a V6 still placed better than any V8 on the track
Absolutely BTFO

>not a Ford
>Not a ecoboost
>not American
Well yes we know Japanese v6 is fastest in the world, look at the nissan gtr. But it doesn't detract from the fact of ecoboost being dog shit

You mean mazda tech

The link I just posted showed that the tech was made and patented by Ford. Nissan used it in their God Tier GTR too.
>>15741049
Nissan used it before ford ever made an ecoshit engine I fail to see your point
Nissan v8>ecoshit v6
>>15741065
The engine was made in 08 about the time the GTR was made

win le mans on the gt40s 40th anniversary win.

No it shows it was made, developed, and patented by two freelance companies. And that the tech already existed before in aircraft.
Did you read it? It is about sleeveless cylinders.
>What was their end game?
To make v6 seem like an acceptable engine choice so they could stop making their inferior v8.

>first time the tech was used in an automobile
Not sure why you're triggered. Nissan used Ford's tech.
>>15741102
Except it doesn't say that.

>"What do the Nissan GT-R and GT500 have in common? This. The Nissan GT-R is a technological tour de force, and its wizardry begins at the most basic level: the cylinder liners in its twin-turbocharged aluminum V-6. Simply put, there aren't any. Here's the funny thing, though — the technology that Nissan uses to accomplish this feat was actually developed and patented by Ford."
They're both great companies. Clearly Nissan using the tech triggered you.

Never says Ford or Nissan used it on a car first. Just says patented/developed. Never says first.
