09 370Z motor

bice21 · 04-24-2012, 08:21 PM

I have a 09 370Z motor that was a warranty job at the dealer for low compression 174psi left bank and 180psi right bank ran fine no smoke just had a miss on #6 when cold. motor only had 15,000miles on it nissan never called it back so now its up for grabs. It's a long block but no intake,fuel rail, crank pully, or flywheel. $250 must pickup will not ship. It's in Canton Ohio (330)361-9856 call or text

Do you work at the dealer? Is there paper work showing why it was replaced?

bice21 · 04-25-2012, 07:54 AM

just quit the dealer after taking over my father inlaws shop. no paper work the motors are to be shipped back to nissan but for some reason no call back it was dusting of the converters that cused the problem. a quick hone and rering and you have a $9000 motor. wet comp test went to over 300psi

Omg, creaming on myself. Damn. This would make a great project engine. But I'm in texas and the cost of picking it up would be way too costtly.

How much does it weigh?

SPOHN · 04-25-2012, 10:50 AM

Will you consider shipping. I'll pay all cost. Or meet me half way. I'll pay for your gas.

bice21 · 04-25-2012, 05:42 PM

I own a detail shop now and I don't have time or means to ship it, sold my truck so Its stuck in the garage. weight is about 300lb area if I were to guess

Very interested in this, what do you mean it was the dusting the converters that caused the issue?

bice21 · 04-25-2012, 11:43 PM

The materials the converter is made of comes apart looks like fine sand and gets pulled back into the engine causing premature wear. replaced motors in alot of altimas and maximas but this was the first Z (Don't buy cheap fuel)

Titans and the 2.5 sentras/altimas were the worst back when I was turning wrenches. Its bad enough that by buddy that still works at a dealer knocks out the cats in the first week of having a Titan.

Hmm. I wonder if I could make room in the garage for this.
