Same as QG15. The other Nissan that put the engine paid 43K after adjusting the old engine. After coming to know that GA15 is around 2000 model and QG15 is 2006-07, that guy got a bit worried.

They only tell 16 valve Nissan twin cam, and I guess, 95% people swapping the engine even don't know the GA and QG stuff

In the short days of winter, I cursed the 1.5 hours delay that I spent on a traffic jam around 200 meters from the market. When the engine went in, we had approached evening.

Yes you are right brother. But still, he do not have to worry in my opinion GA is a simple engine and could serve him well if he cares for it. It is also around 105 hp.

You have not shown any pictures of wiring as of yet ? and ECU...

My speedometer was not working before going for swap. I aimed for Kayani autos nearby, around 1/2Km walk. Somehow I was lost, and rushed back to grab the photos of wiring, worrying that they may start it without me even seeing it.

It started after Maghrib prayers, and I couldn't take many photos.

Here are the few ones I managed to grab:

The ECU was enclosed in a black cover, which they removed during installation process. The unit was placed inside the car under the dashboard.

wiring seems uncut....

IsbCap (IsbCap) 2013-10-30 06:31:40 +0500 #129

Yes, that's why it only took a very little time to finish the wiring up.

If power is your concern, I can confirm that QG15 got enough power to challenge almost anyone in town (and beat almost all of them )

Man you are so smitten by QG15. what would you think of 15 more hp and loads of torque low down the rpm range?

IsbCap (IsbCap) 2013-10-30 08:56:39 +0500 #132

Yes, QG18 is my favorite, and will remain so forever

But QG15 did not let me down in terms of power.

"You'll get 100% more pick as compared to E13 from QG15" was the statement from the engine guy. And I can surely confirm his statement.

QG18 is still the giant that won't allow anyone to come closer.....

I can recall the time when I got my B13 and had to throw away the tiny 1 liter carby motor..... Faisal kept telling me to go for a 1.8 once and for all but I compromised on a GA15DE, not that it wasn't a good motor but the QG18 is a treat for the price paid.... nothing comes close to the economy and torque of QG18, but again there was ghuncha and akif avl to sort out all electrical issues and our mechanic yousaf for anything else that creates a problem...... and before Saqib bhai yells it, yes on CNG

The cute motor

spectra (spectra) 2013-10-30 10:10:36 +0500 #135

And this neo cover actually belings to a QG15

IsbCap (IsbCap) 2013-10-30 10:20:34 +0500 #136

Which I never saw with any engine out there

spectra (spectra) 2013-10-30 10:22:44 +0500 #137

Hardly any of them reaches in one piece. They get broken when engine are stacked in container. Bilal is lucky to have found one. Also it is non JDM item. Far East market item i guess.

bilalahm (bilalahm) 2013-10-30 10:24:16 +0500 #138

That my friend, is an overstatement

IsbCap (IsbCap) 2013-10-30 10:24:30 +0500 #139

Btw, what were the consumption stats on petrol and CNG?

bilalahm (bilalahm) 2013-10-30 10:25:59 +0500 #140

I know where another motor with an even better cover is lying for the last four years
