Hi

I have the Sentra Coupe 1.6 GXEi, you may know it as the Sunny ZX Coupe. This car came out with a GA16I motor and i am now sitting with a cracked head and have decided to do a motor swap.

I just need to know, will the NEW GA16DE motor fit, WITHOUT having changing the gearbox, driveshafts, etc?

And is there any other problems i should be aware of?

Will this work out easier and cheaper than going for the CA18DE or SR20DE?

ThanxCrazy from Cape Town, RSA

Welcome to NICO!!!

I don't know much about the GA16, I don't think many of them made it over here... As far as the cost involved it depends on what resources you have there. I'll try to find someone who can help you a bit better!
