Hey guys,
I searched aound but couldn't find anything related to the topic. I recently installed a GTIR engine in my Altima and got a really bunk motor. The block itself was ok but everything else like the turbo, 2 injectors, injector resistor pack, crank pulley and the valvetrain was REALLY loud compared to others I've heard(Even compared to my tired old KA). Anyways I'm hoping you guys can give me a little advise when it comes to buying used engines seeing as some of you sell them. I really can't afford to toss away another 2k not to mention all the time it's gonna take me to pull the old one out and install the new one. What should I be looking for? Thanks in advance!
