Engine question
#2
The vg/ve are pretty much exclusively maxima engines...
The mid nineties nissan quest has a vg30e in it,but in has a different head design[non-interference]...This means if the timing belt breaks,it wil not smash the valves..
The VE engine was only produced for the 92-94 se's...

Um the VG was in tonns of cars Greeny.
The 85-89 300ZX's (also had a turbo that might bolt onto our cars), some pathfinders, some hardbodys, and nissan made the VG a non interfereance engine for ford's minivan.
All were VG30E's and would bolt into any application they were used in.
The VE was a maxima only engine. But its bascally a VG30DE with some reworking to make it fit.
The only thing Ive seen swapped in a was a VQ30DE. Which means its possible to do a VQ35....
