i can pick up a dirt cheap 84 nissan exa and was wondering if anyone knows an easy engine swap for them
i was thinkin maybe a non-turbo sr20 or ca18, athough it dosent have to be a nissan motor if the conversion is straight forward

i have a whole 9 page write-up here on how to fit a ca18det into a FWD N13 chassis car. using a ca18de gearbox (and only that one as the ca16de box is much weaker) let me know if you want it. catcha

Isnt 84 exa the n12 chassis? Youd be looking at an E15T motor wouldnt you? Does the CA18DET fit straight in?
