Nissan Used Engines

Nissan Used Engines — for every Nissan

Tested, VIN-verified replacement engines for every Nissan — VQ V6, VK V8, QR/MR/HR four-cylinders, and the legendary VR30 twin-turbo. 60–70% less than reman or new crate.

Nissan's engineering reputation rests on two iconic engine families: the VQ V6 and the VK V8. The 3.5L VQ35DE — introduced in 2000 — went on to win Ward's "10 Best Engines" award an unprecedented 14 consecutive years from 1995 (with predecessors) through 2008. It powered the 350Z, Maxima, Murano, Pathfinder, Quest, Altima V6, and Infiniti G35.

The VK56DE/VK56VD 5.6L V8 powers the Titan, Armada, Patrol, Infiniti QX56, and QX80 — a robust truck V8 designed for sustained heavy-duty use. The VR30DDTT 3.0L twin-turbo V6 (Infiniti Q50/Q60 Red Sport) is Nissan's modern performance flagship.

Nissan's four-cylinder lineup splits across three families: QR (2.5L workhorse for Altima, Rogue, Frontier), MR (2.0L for Sentra and Rogue Sport, plus the 1.6L turbo MR16DDT in Juke NISMO), and HR (1.5L/1.6L for Versa, Cube, Note).

Identify your Nissan engine

Nissan VINs encode the engine in the 5th character. The engine code is also stamped on the block (e.g., "VQ35DE", "VK56VD").
