Nissan recommends using 5W-30 oil for the HR16 engine. Below is relevant information about the Nissan HR16DE engine: 1. Features: Due to the adoption of CVTC (Continuously Variable Valve Timing Control) technology, the power curve is relatively smooth, while the torque curve reaches its peak of 153N·m/rpm at 4400 rpm, with minor peaks appearing at 2500 rpm and 3500 rpm respectively. 2. Definition: The HR16DE engine is a new high-performance inline-four-cylinder engine developed by Nissan as the successor to the QG engine, aimed at enhancing competitiveness from 2004 onwards. The newly developed all-aluminum engine achieves a harmonious balance of driving performance, fuel economy, and environmental friendliness. The development goals of the HR16DE include reducing friction, improving thermal efficiency, and increasing power output through technological innovations in its components; optimizing design to minimize space occupancy and overall weight, making it top-tier among 1600cc engines; and achieving top-level torque, fuel consumption, and noise and vibration reduction at medium to low speeds within its class.
