Welcome to the forum

What kinda altima do you have?

Getting a 2.5L engine would probably cost you 4K. But to put a 350z engine it would cost around 10,000 if not more.

How did you blow your 2.5 engine?

Also, what year is your altima?

The 350Z engine will not work in the altima, as the Z engine is for a RWD car - the altima is FWD.

You could possibly use the VQ that was produced for the 2002 altima, but in the end, it's going to cost you a ton of cash to have the swap performed...your best bet is to either get a new QR or buy a new car...

The answer is always yes, but how much are you willing to pay.

The 3.5 engine will not be a direct bolt onto your car. Lots of things will have to be modified.

Depending on your transmission, that will have to be changed. Ecu, exhaust, engine mounts, ect...

dude i have a 2002 2.5s and have nothin but problems with that year motor , because of precat causing oil problems ,your best bet is just get another 2.5 motor ,cause anything else is gonna cost alot to modify , from 4cyl to 6cyl , look for a 2006 2.5 motor with low miles used cost around 1500-2000$ then definetly change pre cat with a header, that's what i did . car runs like brand new..

I was obviously kidding.But it HAS been done.Not every AC owner is on NICO and people have to realize that.Do a simple search on cardomain.There are many people with a great deal of wealth that own cars.Good engine.
