David K Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Hey aussie and japanese guys! Im looking for information on the Nissan Y40 V8 engine from the Nissan President Limo. I believe it was an import to AUS, and i also believe parts are available from the Nissan dealers down there and up in Japan. I need as much info as you can collect as well as the following parts and prices for each, if you may 8cyl Distributor cap Factory manual? rod & crank bearings Piston rings and most importantly, GASKETS! (head(s), valve cover, oil pan, etc etc.) Nissan North American has NOTHING on this engine nor can they find any part listings. Your help is greatly appreiciated.
