Can I Replace My 8plugs Engine With Four Plugs by Nelbless(m): 1:27pm On Nov 14, 2017
Hello house,

I want to purchase a nigerian used 2004 infinity fx45 from a friend, its neat and well kept, but then its an eight plugs suv.....which gives me serious concern on its fuel consumption..

However, I want to verify from Nairalanders here, that are auto mechanics, pros....

If I could replace the factory engine it came with which has 8 plugs, by buying a four plug or six plug engine...replacing it

Again, if their are auto parts dealers here, importers of vehicle engine, please call me on 07051700339, for engine negotiation

Why not buy another car that you can conveniently maintain ?

yes you can, you may also consider removing the gearbox and engine, n hitching a horse/mule to the front end to pull the car.


on a serious note, you cant downgrade to 4 plus. simply look for another car your pocket can afford, corolla, sonata, honda city etc..hv superb fuel economy

I understand...I was only giving it a thought, due to the urgency of the sales, the price...which is way low..(myself and my mechanic have seen the car and its ok)

Would give ur suggestion a serious thought... Tx

The best I can advise you to buy is an Hyundai SantaFe...it comes in a V6 and an i4 variant...and its very easy to maintain...forget the fact that I have some SUVs for sale, I'm just giving my piece of advice

How?

As I stated, the seller is a friend who needs money and want to sell the vehicle for a bargain price, so I thought if I could buy it for that price, maybe I could add money and upgrade the car....or better still downgrade its engine
Re: Can I Replace My 8plugs Engine With Four Plugs by Readonee35L(m): 4:07pm On Nov 14, 2017
This must be a joke.
I'm sorry to say this but Are you okay?


Do you know the weight of that car?


Anyway Gazzuzz can swap in a 2az-fe + 10pin Gearbox complete with the wiring .
You can also contact kingreign or mayor2010 they will gladly take this offer. grin

My boss owns an FX35 and I can categorically tell you that car falls hand even though the FX35 has the award winning VQ35DE, the FX series is not for people who manage car also not for people who can't afford premium services. Low ba3 voltage nah wahala, dash board nah burning sensation, electrical it's headache, engine seals is always leaking oil Sha.

Don't buy the car because of its been given on a platter of gold, because when the car change am for you, you will start singing ponmile by reminisce grin

Swapping engine is not a crime, but I would not advice anybody to swap engine on any Infiniti car. The FX35/45 are already very sensitive enough, messing with it will only complicate things. I've drove the FX35 for close to a year,very responsive, fun to drive but some dodgy electicals. If u like the car so much kukuma look for FX35 which is V6 instead of trying to swap the engine from a V8.

Why not fix its gremlins, help your friend sell at a profit, give your friend his share & pocket the change?
Then you can buy a Hijet or Every van (one less cylinder/plug than you wanted). grin
