Because most people are selling engines up around the 200k mark, and since these engines are notorious for headgaskets blowing around that range, I don’t really want to waste money on a 200k engine, and since the altima I saw at a wreckers in Toronto only had 62000km on it, I asked a friend who is a parts manager at Nissan to reference the engine and cross-reference the fitment. He tells me its a KA24DE, but the cross-reference for fitment with a 5 spd 240 tranny was unavailable, and moreover the cross-reference on mounting brackets was unavailable but that’s just an easy assumption anyway. To me a KA24DE is a KA24DE is a KA24DE - asking questions so that I can hopefully receive factual information in return would be great, but to hear that a guy pulled an Altima or Frontier KA and stuck it in his 240 would be a bonus.
