while were on the topic i heard that thses are the following and any info would be nice.

nissan-

240sx = 2.4 liter
300zx = 3 liter

any input?

240sx has the ka24(d)e engine and it is a 2.4 liter

ka24 stands for the block, the d is for DOHC which 91+ years had(89-90 had a sohc engine) e stands for probably electronic fuel injection

all of the nissan Z cars had names that represented their displacement

240z 2.4 liter i6

260z 2.6 liter i6

280z 2.8 liter (not sure if it it was an i6, but very few came in turbo form, adding an x to the end of the name)

300zx 3 liter single turbo

300zx 3 liter twin turbo

350z 3.5 liter

nissan started out with their cars having the same names as in japan, but people here did not like it so they went with alpha numeric names. it just stuck that way for some of their cars(ie silvia and 240sx)
