WTF? It says it came out of an '86, how?

uhhh, Have no idea. Maybe its out of a federal emission truck or something. Or the car that it came from is from another country, say from Mexico or maybe even further south. Cuban maybe..?

Hey, it's a CA20S! Crazy. It must have come out of a truck.

didn't someone on the board have one? i think i remember seeing it in their signature...

I didn't think the CA20S came in trucks... I thought it was the Z24, and the CA20S came in early Stanzas, but I've been known to be wrong on occasion... :wink:
But it does have the distributor in the right place... Hmmm....

Yes, this engine is a looser and I don't think that they comes for USA.
Those are optional engines for Middle east countries or maybe for Africa as well.
You can find them as a option for the Altima (Bluebird) series.Where the small cc and cheap engines (comparable to cefiro / altima / V6 or inline 6 engines) gives a marketing advantage to Nissan.
Lot of fuel consumption, 90 or 100 hp max. weak crank, weak valve guides, weak rings, less a total life of 100.000 miles.
Aleady destroyed 2 different ones in two different Nissan (1991 Altima - 1985 Bluebird)

CA20S came in T12 bluebird's in Europe (86-89?). I had one, at least.. had it in my signature earlier :)
89bhp and has a consumption more than a midage bum down the street.
Still got the block, head and carb laying around if anyone is curious on details.
