anyone know how to swap engines?
i need to swap the engine out of my 240 for a new one, but the price they charge now-a-days is ridiculous. so... i want to swap it out myself. my friend has the cherry picker to pull the engines out and put them in, and he's got all the tools. anyone know of any online sites that explain out to swap engines out? diagrams would help. or is this just a lost cause? |

its the same thing, sucka. if you take it out, it goes back in the same way. anyone with mechanical experience can do it. but if that doesnt cut it for you, then buy a shop manual from Pep Boys or something.

Remove KA Engine & Transmission
This is a straightforward removal. Disconnect all hoses, wires and cables in the engine bay, and remove the two motor mount nuts. Detach the AC compressor (you will probably have to remove the power steering pump to do this) and secure the compressor out of the way up by the driver’s side stock air box location. Remove the radiator, mechanical fan, and fan shroud, and flip the main engine harness over the fender so it is out of the way. Remove the KA shifter, drain the gear oil out of the transmission, and remove carrier bearing bracket and the driveshaft. Jack up the transmission and remove the 4 cross member bolts. Detach the downpipe from the exhaust manifold, and remove the transmission mount bracket from the cat as well. Remove the entire exhaust and get it out of the way. Using an engine hoist, attach the chain to the head using suitably strong bolts. Drop the transmission using the jack, and pull the engine and transmission out as one unit. Be careful not to damage the power steering rack lines when removing the engine. straight from www.srswap.com If you want some diagrams though then I recommend picking up an FSM from nissan, or ebay. Just make sure your buying the real fsm and not one of those chiltons or haynes manuals... those suck ass.
