NickA Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I'm not looking for how difficult it would be because as far as I know it would basically be like putting in another L28, but I am wondering if it would hurt the price of the car compared to the car with the original 186,000 mile engine that (sometimes) makes an ugly engine noise. I THINK this was the right part of the forum to post this in. If I'm wrong I will gladly move my question somewhere else. Thanks!

getoffmyinternet Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 These cars are by no means collectors so I doubt anyone would care for #s matching when you sell it. I don't think I've ever seen anyone mention whether or not it was when trying to sell one either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickA Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) O, I wasn't saying that because I thought the # matching would mean anything. I only asked because I thought maybe the difference between an l28 and l28e might matter to people. Thanks for the reply Edited August 16, 2011 by NickA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getoffmyinternet Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 OOH I see. I could be wrong but I didn't think that any Zs came with a non-E. If it's a later model however (ZX), it would be more valuable because of the flat top pistons as opposed to dished (unless you want the T). Either way fuel injection is almost always a plus unless you're one of those "purists." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickA Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Really? Oops! lol I guess that is my mistake. We may not be swapping now because I think we finally figured out our problem(after having it all summer). I'm wondering, though, if it would be appropriate to post asking how much I could sell my car for if I'm not a donating member? I know I can't post to sell and there is a pretty close relation between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not be collectors' items right now, but that will change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globerunner513 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 On nissan motors, the E just indicates electronic fuel injection. If you're looking to maximize the value of the car, concentrate on the integrity of the chassis and body. A solid, rust free car is much more disirable than what is under the hood for the most part. If the motor runs without issue, you should be fine, although a good rebuild will always help sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickA Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 It's definitely solid. next to rust free(just a spot of surface rust that i think i can fix myself, very very small), but it is a 2+2 automatic so it might be harder to sell...thanks for the info guys. I really appreciate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
