Nice! I love s12's! They are awesome. Can't wait to see pics. Is it a v6?

that's pretty nice! I like the hatchbacks myself. That looks like a CA20E engine. It's a 4 cylinder with 8 spark plugs.

This is a pic of a nice hatchback I seen online

I told you what it was. It's a CA20E. Common swap is a KA24e or KA24DE.

Yes. Nissan uses the first two letters for the engine family. So in your case it's the CA engines. Then next is numbers which refers to displacement in liters. Your's is 20 so that means 2.0. Finally there are a series of letters. You have just the letter E which means single overhead cam.

CA20E

so it makes sense here is the breakdown on the versa. MR18DE means MR family, 1.8 liter, dual overhead cam.
