Keep us posted, I'm really interested in seeing something else than a MR20 swap.

Such a shame. It's a great car with multiple roles it could take and it sucks that it seems wasted here.

I'm going to go out on a limb but if I was to do an engine swap in my Versa I would want to go with the F4R that come in our sister car the Renault Clio RenaultSport. it is a 2.0L engine that delivers 197hp. I think that would be the way to go.

I took a look at the F4R engine and from the looks it'll be a tight squeeze. But the main factor is how can we locate a F4R in the States and the emission (state inspection) tests is another concern.

My idea is to call my friends in France and try to import one and see how much the cost would be.

I'm also a member of the Renault Owners Club of North America so I have some contacts. I will leave a message there and see what they think of the likelihood of being able to import the engine.

If you managed to get an engine and get it into the Versa you have to keep us posted.
