Car has 68,000 Bay Area highway miles and a fried 1.8L engine. I paid $1,700 for the car and $800 for an LKQ engine with 29k miles.

QR25 swap! Too late, but a Versa Spec V would’ve been neat

Where I live, you can’t do that because of neighborhood covenants.

The engine on the pallet is the LKQ replacement. I can’t say how Nissan it looks, but that car sure is nice to work on.

O.C. does not approve of fascism. Or neighborhood associations.
But if I had your garage, I could do it there.

Yeah, I don’t know Nissan engine designations. That’s really all I was trying to say. Is it a newer engine? Moar powah?

Same engine, fewer miles. Chassis is 68k, but engine is 29k.

My hope is for a cute, dependable, half-price car for an adult daughter in graduate school. I’ll let her buy it from me at my cost by making payments.

Well shit.
I’d been imagining that you bought a 2012 Versa Sedan. This is quite the plot twist.

I’d have preferred a sedan, but this is what popped up. $2500 with the LKQ engine, but needs tires.
